Tried out Yooka-Laylee with my daughter. It looks nice and is charming, but I can see what people were saying about the level design. It's kind of muddled and I don't really know where I am or should be going at any given moment. I found the highest point of the first level and naturally devoted a few minutes to climbing it, only to find that there was loving nothing there. It is an extremely on-the-nose homage, down to the music being a dead ringer for 90s Rare and the main characters being exact personality matches for Banjo and Kazooie themselves, but I guess that's what they were going for so it worked. That said my daughter loves it and is completely mesmerized so I guess I'm playing through!

those games were Bad and only intended for latchkey kids with soft plastic brains and too much time on their hands. one of my favorite genres. yooka laylee also being bad but your child loving it is not a surprise. show her conquer's bad fur day when she turns 18 and is old enough to get fart jokes

Frog Act posted:idk but it seems important for doing damage at a distance. the stats are pretty baffling tbh, a lot of stuff is ostensibly an objective downgrade but in practice merely feels different. I think the low TTK makes a lot of stuff less relevant than it might initially appear? still trying to break myself of the “look for biggest green and slap it on there” habit the reason for this is because a lot of the stats barely matter the TTK is a big factor. the difference in the TTK between the AK 74 and AK 15 is IIRC 20 miliseconds, while the average human reaction time is 200. the groza's TTK is 185ms, the AUG has by far the highest in the game at 300. with basically any gun there is almost no way to react to getting shot by it, you can kill people twice over before you or the person you're shooting at is able to react to it. armor also is also a bit useless. for a lot of weapons you will die in the same amount of time regardless of if you're wearing a light/medium/heavy helmet, and if you don't die you have 100 milliseconds to somehow react to being shot. the exo armor does sort of make a noticeable difference but still gets hosed over by aim punch. aim punch randomly moves your crosshairs by a few degrees each time a bullet hits the player. one of the reasons why the vector is so good is because it has a 20 round ROF, giving it potentially the most frequent aim punch in the game, twice as much as the FAL despite having the same DPS. the vector can also pretty reliably hit targets up to 80 meters, so even if you're trying to tap fire with an AR at the edge of its effective range there's still a chance that you're hosed because of the aim punch. accuracy also barely effects where your bullets go in comparison to other games, the actual stat that determines long range accuracy for automatics is almost entirely horizontal recoil. since it randomly moves the crosshair right or left it's impossible to compensate for, unlike vertical recoil, and it starts having a noticeably negative effect on accuracy at around 0.8-1.1. that's why the SMGs can full blast at 80+ meters and half the ARs are lucky if they can land hits. the Vector has high recoil for an SMG, at around 1.1, while all of the battle rifle type ARs have around 2.2. the margins are just so low that the noticeable difference between a lot of guns is mostly just recoil, reload time and rate of fire turn off the TV has issued a correction as of 01:19 on Jul 6, 2023 |

turn off the TV posted:the reason for this is because a lot of the stats barely matter yeah this is all extremely true. I just unlocked the SG850 or whatever and it’s ostensibly just worse than other guns. in reality though, it’s actually pretty drat good, it seems. I suspect this will be true to some degree with every weapon

Finished Roadwarden, great game, very depressing. I can see the appeal of unlimited time; I ended up having to reload many saves to plan the route out for my last few days to accomplish everything I wanted to. Still got a bad ending for my character, probably because I didn't find the last hunter, or do anything really to White Marshes, or Old Pagos and I chose the influence ending so I didn't have enough influence. Hard to imagine having enough time to complete all those quests in 40 days, but I kind of appreciate the time pressure. But the eastern road thrives thanks to me, so I'll take what I can get in the peninsula. Thanks again to genericnick for the key. I may go back for the best ending one day, see everything there is to see, help everyone that can be helped. Good games you should try: - Roadwarden - Mechabellum - Project Wingman - Exanima - Pentiment - Battle Brothers - Wasteland 3 - Heaven's Vault - One Hour One Life - Caves of Qud

I’m honestly kind of annoyed there was no gold bokoblins. once you can take down white Lynels it's a wrap on all enemies even without zonai death mechanisms e: like the final Gannon fight I went into with a grip of white Lynel parts to attach to my x5 Savage Lynel Bow and even with his double health bar that fight was trivial indigi has issued a correction as of 06:43 on Jul 6, 2023 |

A lot of the gun sounds are anemic and I hope the devs have plans to record some new ones now that theyre flush with cash nice thing about early access is that you can come back to it in a few months to see how active the devs have been
