My anime experience doesn't go beyond watching Pokemon with my daughter and I found it tolerable, though I skipped 90% of the cutscenes because I was bored with them. The game itself is ok, but gently caress there are a lot of cutscenes with young people playing grizzled veterans.

VC is good but becomes less tactical over the course of the game, and then it becomes sort of hilarious and broken- in a fun way.

But I think I like my random squad members better than the main cast, excepting Largo.

It's really good gameplay-wise. The storyline can get pretty anime but not too creepy or dumb. A lot of the more anime-y things are skippable.

Bobby The Rookie posted:Xenonauts. I don't mind hilarious and broken, final fantasy tactics and disgaea were neat cause you could eventually really abuse the system. I hope you mean broken and fun kind of like that. Is xenonauts good? I followed that project for goddamn years, starting in like 2001/2002 when all they had was a tech demo geoscape, and then they got poo poo on for violating copyright or whatever. Lost interest when zero progress was being made and nothing changed every few years when I remembered to check on it.

I hope you mean broken and fun kind of like that. Xenonauts, on the other hand, is a straight-up tactical game and a good level of challenge. If you like the old X-Com games, it's easily the best modern adaptation and the modding scene for it seems pretty decent at the moment.

This sounds like something customer service should help you fix, have you contacted them? Pretty sure other goons in similar situations (but different games) have had luck there. (edit: assuming it's available to purchase now and wasn't a limited set of keys?)

And there were ziplines? Probably seems charmingly primitive now, but at the time I was wowed by being able to run around in what felt like a completely open city. I never played much past the point where Men in Black show up, and their bodies levitate and explode like something out of Highlander when you defeat them in battle, but I remember thinking the game had taken a really weird turn. I have no idea how far into the storyline I was, but I was left with a generally positive impression.

Probably seems charmingly primitive now, but at the time I was wowed by being able to run around in what felt like a completely open city. Yeah, I thought I had made clear about all the climbing stuff, but apparently that got lost while I was cutting sentences that didn't make any sense. There's all sorts of ziplines and fences and whatnot to climb over and fall off. Also, that spoiler makes it sound a whole lot better than where I've got to so far. Gonna have to go do a bunch more, because that sounds way cooler than the stuff I'm doing, which is decent but not especially exciting. Generally positive impression is more or less what I got from it. 6.5/10.

Does Mark of the Ninja play better with a controller? For all the positive reviews it has, the controls are hot garbage on M+KB. I don't want to give up on it after 0.3 hours played though.

I don't want to give up on it after 0.3 hours played though. Not really, no. If anything, I'd say the exact opposite: M+KB offers more precision, faster, especially in throwing things (which becomes critically important towards the last third of the game, having been only very important before that). I suppose that the regular movement might be more granular with an analogue stick, but since you don't really need any granularity beyond slow and fast, that's just a thing to accidentally do wrong when you least need it.

I think it's noon PST, but don't quote me.

It's fun and good. It's in Early Access because there are only 3/5 of the dungeon types, four missing character classes, and numerous little bug fixes and probably some mechanic changes coming.

So what should my game #666 be? Here's my profile. I like shooters, open world games, games with loot, and games I can play for a few minutes at a time while listening to a podcast. It doesn't have to necessarily be satanic or anything, despite the number. But I don't want it to be a crappy bundleware.

Acquire Currency! posted:Has anyone played any of the Isolation dlc they seem loving kick rear end They're basically reinterpretations of parts of the movie within the game, and last about as long as the respective parts do. If that's what you want, then yes, they kick rear end. The most common complaint is that they're not all that substantial, and there's some truth to that so take that into consideration if such things usually bother you.

Darkest Dungeon is pretty sweet yeah. It's early access because they want to add in more content such as dungeons, characters and other features.

It's Early Access because at least two dungeons aren't done (including the "Darkest Dungeon") and there's no ending. In other words it's unfinished in content, not basic mechanics.

Morter posted:So what should my game #666 be? Rainblood Chronicles is a good game, it just doesn't have cloud saves and the achievements on Steam's end are hosed unless you get the files posted on the forums by the devs through a link. If neither of those bother you (poo poo, SAM could fix the achievements anyway), then go for it. The fighting system is pretty straightforward and you can do some poo poo like keep your enemy up in the air until they die (once you get the relevant upgrades). I know what's worth grabbing at first and what can be put off, so feel free to shoot me a line.

No, that's only the case for the preorder DLC. It has a whole bunch of other DLC missions out already. They're all challenge maps that run 45-75mn long, reuse levels from the main game but task you with doing different objectives, usually with a twist (the latest one doesn't let you save normally, for example - you need to get score by doing the objectives to be allowed to "spend" some of that score to activate a save station), and they all have leaderboards so you can score attack them. They're honestly a meaty addition to the game, but they do feel like more of the same.

For some reason, I keep only thinking of Crew Expendable and Last Survivor as the DLC, because the rest “just shows up” (read: I forgot I got the season pass). But yes, the stuff included in the season pass is more along the lines of special game modes or challenge maps than any kind of narrative.

So I picked up Valkyria Chronicles, and beyond when you first open the game, I can't figure out how in the gently caress to get to the graphics settings. The Options is just in-game stuff like camera controls. There's no Graphics tab or anything. Am I blind?
