Ah, never played WoW. I swore off MMOs after Star Wars: Galaxies, and I played in the early days when it was terrible. Left before they released the "hey everybody can be a Jedi" patch when it got worse.

It's a terrible game that's well past its prime. I haven't played it in forever. But I've been feeling like playing an MMO for a few weeks now and nothing else is good. Guild Wars 2 is poo poo, Secret World is poo poo, every other MMO is poo poo. WoW is still poo poo, but it's very well polished poo poo. Planetside 2 is a blast to play but there's a bug right now that's making a good portion of the playerbase not log in right now.

Dwarf Fortress. Whenever you get bored, just play DF and mod the poo poo out of it.

I made it to late Act IV Hell and just said gently caress it when a sub-boss kept dominating me. You get to the point where you have to ask if you're having fun anymore, and then it's time to stop. I don't think I could continue going solo into Inferno anyways.

Slicing a gecko to poo poo in the demo was revenge for Act 1 MGS4. loving assholes. Looking forward to cutting a Metal Gear RAY to poo poo when my copy gets here.

You missed the part where you start with an RPG, and then slice everything. Think Dishonored.

My copy of MGR got here. BRB, slicing dudes in half.

E: Raiden is no longer a pussy. Also, I just sliced three guys into a bunch of tiny pieces at the same time. It's like they looked at the counter system in Assassin's Creed and asked, "How can we make this more insane?" :stare:

Tonight is going to be fun.

It's probably the best boss battle ever.

It was funny because of 'MURCA WAR HELL YEAH :911: but then got annoying until I figured out the regeneration mechanic. The RAY battle is still my favorite. Part 1 leaves you thinking, "I just took down a RAY with a sword. :stare:". Part 2, "I just used a swarm of missiles as stepping stones, then sliced a RAY in half. :stare::hf::stare:"

Yes. I've run through it on normal and hard, gearing up for my very hard run. The combat is consistently fun and when you upgrade your poo poo it makes you feel like an unstoppable god of swords and poo poo while still being difficult enough to be fun. Also the story is unironically awesome.

Try an easy run after you've upgraded. It's like stomping Helen Keller in the face.

Threw 4 hours at last boss of MGR over two days, couldn't beat him.

Went back a chapter, farmed 5 health thingies.

First attempt with 5 health thingies, bring him from 200->10 and stayed above 70% of health on the first goddamn tank.

gently caress you, game.

Last boss is kind of an rear end in a top hat. What difficulty are you playing on?

ARMA III makes me glad I paid attention when we went over NATO unit symbols on maps in class. You get dumped into it on the first menu screen- two OPFOR infantry platoons versus two BLUFOR infantry platoons and one other BLUFOR unit that I can't recall. What's one diagonal line again?

Dunno, maybe? The controls are way more complicated than the last two games, all I've done so far is the infantry showcase and it gave me trouble.
