So I know the thread hates Dark Souls chat, but the community is AWFUL. I'm skeptical of how some of the board game mechanics will work, but will back it anyway because I like the game. The comment section on the kickstarter makes me ashamed to be a fan though. Thankfully the comments on loving Sif ended after the basin addon, but it's so many crappy praise the sun memes and outright creepy comments about priscilla and how so many people want to stroke her "fluffy tail". Where is my precious prissy  gently caress off.

Food and water in subnautica are annoying as heck. I like the idea of them being in the game, but it's hard to get a good consistent food source for how fast your meters drop.

I really like bully and played loads of it in Xbox, but hot drat I'm lucky if I get ten minutes without a crash on PC. Sometimes it's alright, like when I got to beat up santa's elves four times, but I've tried about six times to get through the mission where you run away from the greasers on bikes. One time I made it to the final cut scene and it crashed

Magic origins is dragged down by a lack of squirrel decks. Druid's call on squirrel mob for life. Actual content: the deck building interface is pretty terrible. Cycling through all the cards so slowly is a real pain, especially when I don't recognise most of them since I haven't played in years.

So I posted in the little things thread about psychonauts because it's really quite good, but holy poo poo this oleander circus level is dogshit. The fourth part of the protection bit involves dodging a knife so it gets stuck in a spinning wheel, allowing you to grab on. Pretty clever as a mechanic, but a bitch to get accurate, and in a timer that sends you back to stage one if you fail. Beat that and I'm on a rail portion now where I can't make the first jump. Come around a corner and hit jump to get over a gap, but you still have momentum from the turn and go loving flying. Rage inducing level at what I'm guessing is near the end of the game.

I enjoy the dirt games and have just stared dirt 3. You unlock new liveries based on reputation points, which is fine. Every team has a bonus condition to get extra reputation which is kind of neat, except each team rewards differing amounts, and one is always over 2k when the rest are 700ish. There's no way to check what the reward condition is before loading the event. Also, gymkhana blows and shouldn't be in the game. Drift barely gets a pass.

Glukeose posted:Scholar is like a gaiden version of the base game and has very hostile design. I have seen the normal version of DaS2 at Gamestops near me for like $10 so if you like the series and still want to give it a shot then I'd say go for it. The placement of enemies and consideration for bonfire runs is far easier in the vanilla game. Unfortunately I don't think that works for steam version. Plus that means shrine of amana classic, doesn't it?

BioEnchanted posted:Just did the penultimate level in Mirror's Edge. Wasn't a fan of climbing the foyer to the gun placement, I found it really buggy - faith would keep pulling herself on top of the vertical pieces of sheet metal and falling off the other end, and a few times it was difficult to see where I was supposed to be going. Also fighting down the other foyer wasn't much fun as there were no good shortcuts, and the sniping mission was just poorly implemented. Better than the boat though. At least I think the only annoying part to go is the infamous server room, but we'll see how the Shard goes. The server room isn't that bad once you figure out the trick. The outdoor segment before it is worse.

BioEnchanted posted:Just beaten Mirror's Edge 1. The final level wasn't nearly as bad as that loving boat, and honestly, neither was the foyer fight at the end of the previous level. I managed the server room on my fourth try and the rooftops beforehand weren't as annoying as I'd expected. Once I knew the direction it was just a matter of cover-to-covering to the end of the roofs. The server room is a really easy if you run laps around the outside. You only have to break one computer in each quadrant, and the shooty guys will do it for you. Have you played XIII?

I'm enjoying redout having picked it up on the cheap. It's a fun wipeout/f-zero type game and looks pretty drat nice, but the camera angles make it very hard to see what's coming up, and I haven't found a way to see a track map, like how F-zero X would give you a 3-d line model of the track you were about to race.

The furthest I ever get involves killing soldiers at and blowing up a helipad, then escaping through the sewers, but whenever I spawn in that area from that sewer all the soldiers are back, the helipad is theirs again and I get shot to death. That really sucks that it doesn't save. This is an amazing game and I'm upset I lost the discs.

I wouldn't say it bugs me, but that's actually a pretty cool idea. Rocking back to work after killing benny and asking for you next job would be funny. Didn't Mr. House set you up though? I seem to recall there's more to it than just benny being a dick, so the courier goes beyond just killing benny.

Morrowind definitely let you do whatever.

I really like Mario tennis on gameboy. It's a fun sports game, and I like that stats can drop when you put points elsewhere, so it's very hard to get a maxed out character. The thing dragging it down is the silver/gold racket challenge. To get the silver you have to hit a and b 100 times in ten seconds, to get the gold ir's 150 times. But you only get one chance, so if you get 149 you get the silver racket, and can't get the gold. I guess some randomised tournaments would've been fun, too against random palette/stat opponents. The advance version was kind of ruined by power shots. By the end game your super lava powered offence shot can normally easily be stopped by an opponent. They basically are best used as a defensive tool against an opponent's power shot.
