Warframe bows own, and they come in many different flavors

-Regular Bow, which is very good and has been talked about

-Bows of each damage type, Piercing, Blunt, and Slashing

-Mega Bow that is stupidly strong but can only be fired when you fully charge it

-Full auto crossbows

-Bow that shoots exploding gas arrows

-Bow that shoots exploding ice arrows that slow enemies and then afterwards it explodes again

here come the planes
warframe is a really cool game that I'm always sad people slept on, even if I haven't played a ton of it myself

my favorite thing about it is that a good long while in it pulls a huge narrative/mechanical thing that's absolutely fantastic and that I don't want to spoil by mentioning it here

He plays for the dreamers that forgot how to dream, and the lovers that forgot how to love.
Just beat the game based on the Curious George movie, it's a really good and cute game that gets surprisingly tricky later - not hard at all, but some of the optional stuff requires some slightly trickier movements than the main path. It's short and linear but the levels are varied and the overall gameplay is really fun. The music and graphics are really nice too, really pretty and cute. It's a nice chill game.

I'm happy that Warframe is getting more attention. I'm a founder (500 hours since beta) and keep telling people how great it is.

Here are some of my favorite weapons:

-A gun that shoots lightning that stuns and chains to everyone around them.

-An orb thing that covers your hand and shoots fire that also jumps between targets.

-A spinning disc that cuts people in half and then you throw it like a boomerang to kill everyone in a room.

-An actual boomerang that can be modded to be an infinite-ammo spinning rocket.

-An automatic crossbow that can pin people like the other bows and can have exploding bolts (almost all bowd can be modded for exploding arrows but the crossbow shoots so many bolts it's like carpet boming a mission)

-BIG loving GLOVES FOR PUNCHING FOOLS INTO THE STRATOSPHERE.


Play Warframe. It rules.

Reminds me of that anecdote with Mike Patton, who is known for roary demon characters like The Darkness. Apparently he was once recording/rehearsing in a hotel room and someone questioned what the weird noises and random screams were, concerned. His friend was just like "Nah, that's just Mike doing his thing..."

It's not real slo-mo, you just fall much slower than usual if you ADS in midair so you have time to pull off sick snipes.

Made no money, receives no further support or development, still has a kinda okay-ish sporadic online community.

Honestly don't think the ugly characters were the problem, so much as the heavy monetization straight out the gate. You gotta keep poo poo cheap enough that whales won't think about blowing their savings $2 at a time, not charge $10 for basic game functionality and $50 for an in-game outfit.

What did you say the strategy was?
The music levels at the end of worlds in Rayman Legends are fun. I always like the rhythm of the sprint/ chase levels and the black betty one was really well done. Still need to do the last two worlds, and the origins levels. Hope they included the flying sidescroller level!

IIRC, Loadout was a case where they tried to expand to consoles, couldn't keep two versions of the game going at the same time, and hosed everything up.

The final gauntlet of these with added graphical effects to make them massively harder is absolutely brutal but if you do persevere it feels amazing

I have no idea what the gently caress game I’m thinking of. PS3, robot dudes, free to play, small level arena shooter, stages like a future warehouse, I think it was third person?

edit: might have been in beta when I played. I should look at old trophies maybe.
