Dyna Soar posted:Did you have to reload a lot? Its not a terribly hard game, but without at least some level of tactical magic using it can get frustratring fast e: yeah i probably reloaded a fair bit, but i don't recall it ever being as a result of not using spell piercing. Playing on normal though. sebmojo fucked around with this message at 11:13 on May 14, 2018 |

Butter Hole posted:Prey is garbage, only steam game I've ever refunded. Combat feels bad, gunplay is bad, the idea of "exploration" and "world building" is really just "read boring emails about characters that are uninteresting on computers". The mimics were a cool concept but not fun to fight against. You mostly walk around picking up useless junk until your inventory is full. lol ok also 'doom has too much story' is an opinion I've seen exactly once, a few posts up from here

signalnoise posted:Leveling up is an annoying mechanic to begin with. If there's going to be some kind of power unlock kind of thing as you play a game more, I strongly prefer giving players more options for character specialization rather than outright improvements. I've heard the rebuttal of "what if someone prefers the starting loadout to anything potentially more interesting, and the game never changes for them?" Well who the gently caress cares, am I supposed to be irritated that someone liked a game from the start? I'm digging the hell out of arkham knight right now and it's a great example of how to do it well: you're the goddam fuckin Batman at the start and you're a much more involved version of the goddam fuckin Batman at the end

The vox pop was blatantly about racism as original sin, though it wasn't done well. And the ending owned, getting drowned by multiple Elizabeths to a cappella gospel was excellently fetishistic

!Klams posted:I see a lot of vitriol for Human Revolution, and at the time peeps ragged on the bossfights a lot, but what really got me was how stupid the map layout was. It made out like you were in a city, implying open world / free roaming, but actually secretly it was a doom / wolfenstein style maze of a map. It felt so insanely stupid to be, that in this game where you can supposedly make any decision, you had less geographical freedom than Bioshock, who's whole shtick is it's rail roading you. Yeah i got lost like a motherfucker in hr, it's not even that big

food court bailiff posted:pyf jumped down my throat once for saying this and several posters kept claiming that the ending choice for DX1 boiled down to three buttons as well and it was the most ridiculous reductivist take, i couldn't believe it It did, though. The actual ending of me3 was adequate at best, but I liked the bit where you're limping towards the final scene, all broken and battered It's hard to overstate what giant babies people where about it, there were literal thousand page threads of whining lol

a hole-y ghost posted:I did not play Mass Effect at all, actually. Is it good, aside from this thread's description? They're ok. The first one is solid b-grade sci fi with some good moments but fairly terrible gameplay and mechanics, the second is the best and upgrades it into a competent cover shooter with some great missions and character moments including a superb final mission, the third improves the mechanics, and has an even spread of fantastic and terrible bits. They're definitely worth playing. My unpopular opinion is that me2 planet scanning was fun, as long as you didn't feel compelled to grind it out. Also scanning Uranus lol.

I played the demo after they fixed the egregious crap and it seemed fine, just meat and potatoes sci fi. Worth getting cheap. I think making the default female face extremely derpy was one of their biggest and most easily fixable flaws.

Jeza posted:Only on these forums have I run into the apparent consensus that it's bad. Like, it's not blow you away fantastic or anything, but for me it was solid and pretty fun too. It could be a classic case of many goons needing to git gud. Still blows out of the water the real-time combat of like 90%+ RPGs modern or old. Yeah, it's ok imo. My opinion is that Enderal is the best Skyrim by miles. I'm like 50 hours in and it nails the difficulty curve, makes money meaningful, and has a really solid well-presented plot with largely excellent voice acting.

Bioware romances, where you either give people their favorite presents until they gently caress you, or sexually harass people under your command? I think that's creepier. The cards are just being honest about video games pokemonesque gently caress mechanics lol
