Yeah I dunno why someone would choose PC games unless they are gonna drop a chunk of change and never make that stupid $500 argument ever again. edit: I mean, or the other side is buying a $150 machine just to play Touhou games or whatever but that's not what most people mean when they say PC gaming as a hobby.

You can use a PC for things other than gaming. ... You guys do realize that, right? It's not just a $1k gaming machine...

I feel that graphical wow factor lasts about a minute while you take in the intro around and the second you get into the first game's fight no one looks at the shadow that the pot casts but instead some glowing counter button.

Hey guys, just wanted to get your opinion on which game I should get next. I'm choosing between Yakuza 0 and Persona 5. I basically have no experience in both franchises and thought it would be a good time to start. I'm looking for something quite different as I've been playing a lot of open world games. Thanks!

Yakuza is a lovingly rendered open 4 square blocks. Not and open world. I really want persona 5 to be on a handheld. The vita was great with 4.

Yakuza 0 is a completely linear game that asks you to do scav hunt stuff to progress and dick around when you want

Yeah. It has open world dick around freedom. But everything is right there. And you always know where the story is and what you can play with. If you have no Yakuza experience I think its worth it to experience the series. I know Persona is supposed to be drat good. But does it do anything different the the rest of that series?

If you have no Yakuza experience I think its worth it to experience the series. Yeah it has handcrafted dungeons with unique gimmicks that use new light stealth mechanics pretty well. It also incorporates smt battle system elements into the formula to make things a bit more interesting. Not major changes but a huge improvement in gameplay if you were sick of random generated dungeons Characters are cool too but maybe not as endearing as p4's

Been clearing my backlog finally completed Final fantasy 15 = poo poo ending really didn't care decent beginning/mid game Doom = loving AWESOME LETITDIE = excellent dark souls style f2p game (I did buy stuff though) HZD = Good game but I think I spoiled it playing on the hardest difficulty by the end of the storyline I had lost interest. Still need to finish uncharted 4 which I've been enjoying alot and finish witcher 3

VoLaTiLe posted:Final fantasy 15 = poo poo ending really didn't care decent beginning/mid game What do you mean by ending? I'd say it had the best ending in the series but I would be specifically talking about the point where you enter the final area to the actual end. If you mean the last few chapters then sure ok.

The last few chapters but by the end of it I really did not care about any of the characters I did like the picture option however everyone dies for absolutely nothing as it looked like the human race was finished by then. Also I didnt understand the 10 year jump for me it did not make much sense My ps4 blew up I recently got a ps4 pro so can get back on it. That's the only reason I have not clocked witcher 3 as I'm a fan of the series VoLaTiLe fucked around with this message at 17:31 on Apr 16, 2017 |

I'm trying to clear my backlog. I love FFXV, but it is a buggy mess. I finished chapter 14 and the trophy didn't pop for some reason, so I'll have to do that again. The fight with Ifrit was pretty cool, though!

Fuzz posted:I see this argument often and honestly wonder if people have eyes or just poor visual memories or what. I know a nice PC is going to look better. My point is that console games look so good now that demanding high end PC gaming is like the game equivalent of being an audiophile nerd that acts like a normal stereos are just totally unacceptable. It's not like its like the end of last gen where the consoles were so old that the difference was night and day. You are looking at something only marginally better. Console games look really drat good now and better hardware is much more diminishing returns than it used to be. And after checking out plenty of stuff on max pc settings and PS pro performance modes I'm convinced it's 75% placebo effect where people are telling themselves that the regular PS4 version of stuff looks much worse than it actually does. I was bouncing around different modes in Horizon on my friends PS4 pro on a 4k TV the other day, and both of us agreed the differences were almost unnoticeable outside of HDR mode which looked a little different. That didn't stop a bunch of people from going "woah you gotta play Horizon on a pro!" because they just assumed that it looked much worse on OG ps4 than it actually does. Like. In the case of Witcher. I know linking Youtube videos is generally unfair, but all the stuff you listed as selling points are things you dont need a 4K video or anything to see. Do these hair and lighting and weather effects differences honestly look ridonkulous to you? Yeah I guess the horse hair looks better with the magic of NVidia Hairworks ™ lol. But this is not night and day. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fUGFmmikn4

But this is not night and day. You realize that Witcher 3 had two iterative graphics patches on its own, plus an engine revision with the DLCs... right? Comparing pre Day 1 release footge as proof of your argument is some Fox News style presenting of "fact." It's okay to not care about having super amazing graphics, no one is faulting you for that. The point I was making was to say that the graphics aren't appreciably different is tacitly incorrect, that's all. It makes you look like a fool to post that viewpoint, just watching out for your GOON CRED, bruh. Off of this stupid derail: You should all play Titanfall 2. It is pretty and good on PS4 and a shitload of fun and you should all play it.

I enjoy being able to play PC games from the past 20+ years with relative ease on one platform, and I also enjoy playing first party console exclusives. Games are good and so are the micromachines of your choosing.

dont be mean to me posted:Comparing something with observable effects even you acknowledge to something that involves five-figure voodoo props. Maybe not a perfect comparison because Audiophile is for literal morons who spend tons of money on snake oil, and PC graphics being better is an actual thing but my point was that all game platforms look good now. Some looking slightly better isn't the selling point it used to be when there was a huge difference.
