Exotic in Destiny are basically set items. A lot of early items are just random.

He probably meant how the dates were part of an obviously cut side story, because when you take the first girl out on a second date you both start referencing things that never happened.

Sniper Elite 3 has a thing where they put a bunch of collectibles in the levels but they don't do anything in the way of making them stand out. So if you actually want them you have to basically go into every room/tent and hug any tables.

An annoying thing about Diablo 3 is how the stats don't really make a lot of sense. You can look at two items and the first one will have higher bonuses but somehow give you worse stats. You're basically stuck relying on the simplified up/down arrow system. Also, playing the UEE version, I'm not sure I like the changes to the crafting system that requires more materials to do certain items.

For some reason in Shadow of Mordor when you get the Brand power it doesn't really make a lot of sense because you just start using it when someone tells you that you need to build up an army of orcs.

The final boss fight in Shadow of Mordor is super unsatisfying. The basic premise of the game is that this guy called the Hand of Sauron kills Talion (the main character) and his family, causing Talion to become linked to a wraith becoming undead. You spend the whole game trying to track him down and kill him, finally getting to him at the end. Then the Hand just kills himself. This makes sense from a story standpoint as it causes the wraith to bind to him instead of Talion. Doesn't change the fact that you don't actually get revenge against him.

An annoying thing about Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare is how small the QTE indicators are. They can be kind of easy to miss if you aren't looking at that exact part of the screen right when it happens. Also there's part of a mission where you're doing sniper support for you team that is assaulting a building and they don't really give you a good indicator of who you're supposed to shoot next so it can be a little too much trial and error.

RenegadeStyle1 posted:I feel like there are a lot of parts in the game where I don't really know what i'm supposed to do. The orders given seem so vague that I just try different things and keep failing until I do it right. I can't think of any offhand but the one you mentioned I definitely had a problem with. The flipside is when they are clear on what you're supposed to do they expect you to do it right away and will keep harping on it until it is done. Really the game needs more levels where you're just given a big area to operate in to let you actually use the Exo jump and such.

Your Gay Uncle posted:The weird thing about Darksiders 2 was that Death had no idea the Land of The Dead existed. Why would Death be doing petty fetch quests for some dead guy? He's Death, shouldn't everyone in the Land of The Dead just do whatever the gently caress he wants? It would be like Ronald Mcdonald walking into a Mcdonalds and having the fry cook sent him on errands. He's not literally Death. Anyway, I've started messing around with the F2P 3rd person shooter Loadout since they put it on the PS4. The game's major gimmick is weapon customization but they do a really poor job of introducing you to it. Mostly because when you first go into the screen they fill it with a bunch of options that you can't actually use. There's a bunch of parts to customize but you can't actually do anything with them because you have to buy them first. Maybe I just didn't see it but the game really needs an option to turn off parts you don't actually have. Another problem is I was playing a stage and apparently there was a time limit but I had no idea how you were supposed to see it. I only knew about it when the game said there was a minute left in the match.

The most annoying part of that was how there was a slight delay in the game deciding you were entering a random encounter and actually going into combat. You could still move but not hit any buttons, which meant you would be falling off ledges all the time as you move to jump.

Lotish posted:Really? Because I've yet to find a unique that I couldn't hopelessly outclass within one minute of crafting, especially if you have access to masterwork materials. And crafted weapons and armor have no level limits, so I can use item level 20 gear at level 10 if I so choose. Well maybe I just don't have any good schematics then because of how absolutely lovely the shop/inventory mechanic is. Mostly in how there's no way of knowing what a shop has to sell other than going through all their tabs. I played for a couple of hours before I realized there was a tab for junk that you should sell. But for some reason they stick stuff you might not want to sell in there too, like enemy research stuff. Another annoyance with the crafting stuff is that you can't modify weapons or armor that party members have currently equipped. This is especially bad with Varrick since the only way for his range attack to go up is add ons for his bow.

In Assassin's Creed Unity there is a side mission where you are supposed to be solving murder mysteries. You get a dead body, evidence, a crime scene and suspects/witnesses and you're supposed to figure out who did it and accuse the suspect. I was doing one where there was only one person hanging out at the crime scene so I guess they did it. For some reason they didn't even put in one other suspect so I would at least have a chance of getting it wrong.

scarycave posted:The key to beating Al Gore, is to gently caress him up with status ailments and keeping the agents under control.Jimmy is really useful for this fight since he can put the agents to sleep. Its been a while since I played the game but I think the reason his fight fucks people up so much is that he's pretty much the only enemy that really requires you to use the various status stuff. Everyone else is pretty straightforward and you can beat them just by regular fighting.

The scene where Randy trains you in a fart technique almost made me stop playing the game altogether. It is a poorly designed mechanic, he gives you very little feedback on how to actually do it and the game itself isn't any help either.

Those two are what caused me to spend 30 minutes fishing in the wrong spot. The stupidest part about the whole thing is after you do it the one time it never comes up the rest of the game. Like, you can go fishing, but you never really get a reason to and are probably busy doing a whole lot of other things.

Jaramin posted:It is absolutely the worst of the 3 games. The bosses are horrible, loot drops are even worse, the areas are either samey or annoying to traverse, and the game as a whole feels like Borderlands 2.5. That just reminds me of a stupid thing from Borderlands 2. Namely how early in the game they give you a mission where you get to try out an energy weapon and then you don't see one for who knows how long. I sure don't because I never saw one the rest of the time I played the game, now I didn't finish it but I got pretty drat far.

Ubisoft just released the story DLC for Assassin's Creed Unity for free. The annoying thing about this is that to get to the DLC you use a fast travel point in the game world, which is right next to the fast travel point for your home base so you can accidentally select the DLC point instead. They don't ask you if you actually wanted to start the DLC and once it begins you can't actually quit out of it until you finish the first mission, which is fairly lengthy.

The ending of Assassin's Creed: Unity sure is some hot garbage. The metaplot is that you're following Arno's memories to find out what happened to a Sage (a person with Precursor DNA) so the Assassins could find his body before Abestergo. Then at the very end of the game you're told, hey, turns out that this was kind of pointless as his remains are completely lost. Uh.. good job?

The current metaplot is all Sage related. Everyone wants to get a hold of them because they have direct knowledge of the First Civilization and have Precursor DNA. Although the last couple of games have been slow as hell in any movement forward.

Apotheon came out this week on PS4 and its an interesting 2D Metroidvania with a unique visual style. One mechanic the game has which is really stupid is your weapons degrade when you use them and eventually will just break. Most weapons are super generic so it doesn't matter too much but there are also special weapons that are hard to get and they suffer the same degradation and breakage. It makes it so that you can't really get excited when you find a cool weapon because you know that it'll just break after a couple of minutes of use.

The start of Chapter 10 in the new Shadow Warrior game is pretty terrible. Things you can interact with glow yellow and for some reason they decided to put the item you needed to continue the stage on the ground in a pool of yellow light so it is easy to overlook. Part of the reason its annoying is because you can keep going into the stage for a little bit more until you get stuck in front of a spinning blade, which almost looks like you can get through because there's a chunk missing from the blade. Although the stupidest part is that you don't even use the item you pick up (C4) to get past the blade. Instead when you go down there after picking up the C4 all of a sudden you can use a console to turn the blade off.

The exploding zombies in Dying Light are the worst. Mostly because there's nothing you can do to them, any attack just causes them to explode but if you leave them alone they just run up to you and explode. The damage is so high that if one blows up next to you you're just dead. Also the explosion attracts fast zombies. Basically everything about them is completely unfun.

In Dying Light there are three different types of XP/levels and while it works for a while the whole system kind of falls apart by the middle of the game. Its broken down into Survivor (which you get from doing quests and supply drops) Agility (from running around the environment) and Power (from killing enemies.) The problem is how much Survivor and Power XP scales to where you are in the game but Agility doesn't. You'll end up getting 400-500 XP for killing an enemy or 10,000 for completing a quest but still be getting 5-10 for climbing a building.
