Deacon st John isn’t my personal idea of “cool” in the way the game wants him to be, but I almost found that to be part of the charm at a point. It’s also hilarious when he has swearing tantrums out of nowhere.

The actor who played Deacon is actually pretty good in the show Being Human but they made a major mistake with the voice direction. Whenever he talks while riding his bike, he starts YELLING REALLY LOUD and it gets annoying instantly, as well as just getting in the way of acting since he has do everything while yelling. If you get off the bike it still happens, so it becomes extra weird. You can see it here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tO5VrPVVmsk

I went to high school in Bend so I liked playing Days Gone for a while because I recognized some of the places in it. That's it, that's all the nice things I have to say about it despite that friends of mine worked on it. I resent the poo poo out of Days Gone because I had to try and say nice things about it to them.

emSparkly posted:The issue with Days Gone is that it's riding the Walking Dead "rednecks and zombies" stuff super hard which is annoying, and then it has the nerve to try and convince me that I should give a poo poo about Deacon and how much he loves his wife and poo poo. Nah fam, I'm not gonna cry about the couple who totally would have gone to Sturgis in the middle of covid.

Days Gone has a weak opening chapter but gets a lot better as you go. Deacon starts off seeming like a classic tough guy but as you go on you realise he is actually a complete weirdo who screams at himself all the time because he has spent way too much time alone.

Fighting Elegy posted:Days Gone is decent and sadly the closest thing we have to a new Dead Rising game. Dead Rising 2 is such a marked improvement on 1. It's the same concept sure, but I wouldn't describe "making the game playable" as just "some new bullshit".

Lacking the photo taking sucks and the combo weapons sort of depreciates the value of the random poo poo scattered around. Granted most people played 1 with just the mini chainsaws but still. Still a better game in total I think.

Extremely disagree re: DR2 being better than DR1. It was pretty much worse in all regards and I'm kind of baffled what even changed that much in DR2 to 'make it playable'  Chuck sucks as a protagonist and the supporting cast was pretty much all bad, the story was worse and had eye roll worthy twist(s), and the psychopaths were also just plain mean in a like, a completely trashy edgy western 00s way. A mentally deficient 'only da animals are my frens' adult man, literal assassin lesbian sisters, extremely tired redneck militia stereotypes, an uncomfortable short fat clown... etc. Even the weapon combo mechanic was mostly forgettable.

I’m so sick of “Single dad” games ala the last of us and GoW reboot. Mr Developer, I don’t care that your marriage fell apart and your kid doesn’t like you and you think they would if the apocalypse happened and your ex wife wasn’t around to “turn them against you” they see how much they need you. I don’t want to listen to your family problems.

I post knowing full well that Dead Rising 2 falls into that bucket.ishikabibble posted:Extremely disagree re: DR2 being better than DR1. It was pretty much worse in all regards and I'm kind of baffled what even changed that much in DR2 to 'make it playable' Better movement and combat controls, easier to navigate world, AI that are actually worth a drat, boss fights that are actually fun to play. It's been well over a decade since I've played either of them, but 1 always played like a beta release of 2.

Days Gone's hurdle is that bikers are actually really funny rather than really cool. They're basically the "Shirt Brothers" sketch from I Think You Should Leave, but with more meth and bootleg Ghost Rider merchandise.

The Kratos one is one of the funniest to me, because there's no way that Disturbed and Mudvayne weren't referenced in the original design for him in the early 2000s and now Sony are stuck with a scowling roofing contractor with a Punisher sticker on his van as a mascot.

Days Gone does a really good job of making Deacon St. John a believable human being. Even with the biker poo poo it's kinda revealed that for Deacon at least its a bit of an affectation and that he's really just a weird slightly insecure sort of guy who was just looking for an in-group to belong to and that just happened to end up being a biker crew. I've met Deacons before. I've worked with them. He's a a well-realised and compelling character. Imo.

The zombrex gimmick in 2 was pretty good. It gives you some pressure to get out and explore your first time through, while being a pretty easy thing to work on passively once you get some more runs under your belt

It was really jarring they kept that design for the new games. It looked stupid back then and it looked awkward as hell in the Norse setting. Not that he fit in with the Greeks either.

The only thing I remember about God of War, and granted I only played it for like an hour, is what a goddamn piece of poo poo Kratos was to his son. It gave me a lot of perspective on the kind of people who found its dad-story moving: it's deadbeat dads with weekend visitation rights who fantasize about being single dads raising their sons to be tough manly men who use charcoal soap and buy beard grooming kits from the internet

The only thing I remember about God of War was repeatedly having sex with two women at the same time at the beginning of the game and levelling up a bit each time.

That poo poo was at least funny. I don't think the more recent God of War was bad or anything, but it would be better if it didn't take itself so seriously.

FPS is a trash metric unless what you play is an fps. Oh and stop putting anti glare on your monitors it looks like poo poo. Seriously it looks so loving bad and yet all we get is OMG OMG THIS CAN DO 240! I got the LG oled and know it'd look so much better without the anti glare. Wait no we also get ultrawides and curved monitors.
