I don't wanna limit the thread on what we can complain about. If we can all agree that there are some annoying parts to this perfect game and voice them without the :smuggo: back and forth I think we should be cool.

I'm at the Crystal Caves right now and out of all the enemies here I'm really annoyed by the clams. I was trying to pull them one by one so I wouldn't get ganged up on but the last two decided to work together and I got boxed in without paying attention to my surroundings. Yes, it was my fault but still :argh::darksouls:

Pull those clams back, there's some geometry you can easily get them stuck on and then stab them to death.

I'd like to add that WS has also been plagued by numerous bugs, everytime the devs "fix" something they break like 10 others, my favorite so far is guild leaders(just the leader) having their entire attunemment wiped, Carbine's answer to this lovely bug? "Roll and alt and do it again".

And holy poo poo that TBC chart, is that for real?

Yea, mmos are poo poo, but it's made a little better by the fact you'd probably do most of the black ones just reaching the level cap.

I know it's a divisive game, but Nolan North's voice work in Dota2 is really good as well, none of the characters he plays sound anything like each other and are all really fun to play as just because of how good their voice lines are.

Wow. Presumably that's not really a glitch, as in a "woops we should patch this" glitch, but an unintended behavior they chose not to fix. Because that would have been a gigantic pain in the rear end if Lakitu worked like that.

It was an NES game, they were all designed to be a huge pain in the rear end.

Square Enix just keeps making the shittiest decisions:

-you have to register for and sign in to their community site to even be able to play the PC version of FF7
-Deus Ex's "augment your preorder" thing that blew up so spectacularly that they cancelled the whole thing
-Tomb Raider 2 being Xbox exclusive for a year, meaning nobody cared about it release and the game was pared down because it had to run on the Xbox 360
-Just Cause 3 tanking the performance in the name of constantly pinging their servers
-Final Fantasy 7 remake being episodic

Don't forget that Tomb Raider 2 released on the same day as Fallout 4!

My peeve at the moment - just started playing the Black Mirror series, which had got some decent reviews as spooky traditional-style adventure games.
Got a few hours into the first one, and during one scene the main character - who has up to this point refused to do anything slightly dangerous or touch anything nasty - responds to my telling him to go and investigate an electical cable by running over and grabbing it with his bare hands.

Boom, game over! No restarting at a recent checkpoint or autosave - nope, chucked out to the main menu to reload a manual save game. Where I find out that my last save was over an hour ago, before some tedious conversations and puzzles.

gently caress you, game developers who think that putting instadeath into a modern point and click adventure game is a good idea!

Hahaha yea that poo poo got me too when I played that game over a year ago, the sequels are much more forgiving on that aspect at least in that they autosave whenever you enter a room with something that can kill you

The turret section in Dead Space can seriously gently caress off forever. So you're on this big rear end cannon and you have to shoot asteroids. Okay whatever but maybe a nice change of pace. gently caress you.

1. The shields start at 85 just to be an extra gently caress you.
2. The thing is way too twitchy and hard to accurately shoot.
3. The asteroids are small and really hard to hit.
4. THERE ARE WAAAAAAAAAAAY TOO MANY OF THEM. Seriously, you have to have the reaction of a god to hit every single one of them.
5. Shields go and you're dead.
6. THE CANNON CAN OVERHEAT. This is unforgivable. Basically you can't just keep blasting, which would make this still hard as hell, but you have to actually conserve fire, making this wayyyyy worse.
7. It's right after a really annoying section where you have to hid behind little barriers or, oops, INSTANT KILL DUE TO ASTEROIDS!

gently caress that entire section.

You forgot point 8. They make you do it a second time later on.

i think it's doable; the game borrows from tf2's template after all. it's just that i've never really seen any team i've played naturally coordinate their moves to make pushes. and the successful teams are the ones who realize they need to pick up their appropriate roles. everyone i've had to play with just wants to cap the flag but never defend theirs.

CTF was pretty bad in TF2 as well, and it's even worse in overwatch because of the smaller team sizes

Something in Dishonored 2 really broke my suspension of disbelief. at the start of the... sixth? mission you enter the area through a sewer style tunnel in a boat. Then you go up ~20-30 feet and exit to see a sweeping vista of the city. And many hundreds of feet below is the ocean, where your little skiff came from. I still have no idea how that was supposed to work.

If you look up in thee city in some parts you'll see a bunch of tubes so it's less a sewer more an aqueduct.

yakuza 0 blocks off recording parts of the game where you're competing against a character in a substory. you're basically doing a more simplified version of karaoke or an arcade game, but against the game and not another person. it is so baffling to me why it does that.

i think atlus blocking off the entire game is dumb and will set a bad precedent, but i also think it's dumb that this controversy is gonna overshadow the game.

Are any of the Karaoke bits licensed music? That would probably be why

Ridiculous Fishing by Vlambeer (Nuclear Throne, Luftrausers) is the rare phone game that is an actual game and not an ant farm with a bunch of meters you throw money at to watch them fill up faster. For $2.99 with no ads or in-app purchases I've gotten a lot of enjoyment out of it and would totally recommend it for anyone looking for a fun, arcadey game.

Except for these fuckers:



For anyone who hasnt played the game, the basic gameplay loop of Ridiculous Fishing is:

1.)Tilt your phone to manuever your fishing lure as deep as possible without touching any fish
2.)When you do finally hook a fish the line gets reeled in and you have to try and catch as many fish as possible on the way up
3.)When you hit the surface the inertia sends the fish flying in the air and you use your gun to shoot them out of the air, which gives you money you can use on upgrades to go even deeper next time

One of the wrinkles the game adds as you go along is that levels start being filled with jellyfish which make you lose money when caught, so you want to avoid catching them or shooting them but even if you bag a few it's no big deal. The problem with Clone Jellies is that not only are they effectively unkillable but every time you damage one it not only makes you lose money but it also instantaneously splits into two identical Clone Jellies. And each of those Clone Jellies can in turn split the second the spawn into existence. So between the rapidly moving camera of the shooting segment and the fact that most of your guns are full-auto or have area of effect all it takes is a single bad swipe of your finger and you have a screen full of jellyfish and no money.

It's one of the few enemies that is made even worse by your upgrades, because most of your upgrades are offensive in nature (like a chainsaw lure that lets you cut through fish or a toaster on your line that automatically kills the first enemy you touch and can be further upgraded to kill everything on screen when activated) so when you're fully upgraded a brush against a Clone Jelly can burn through all of your defensive items and send you hurtling back to the surface through a screen full of freshly-spawned jellyfish.

I can't believe they remade the fishing minigame from donkey kong country https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMuPBXNcUVE
