People are saying it's like a mix between Dynasty Warriors and Kingdom Hearts? Ugh barf not my jam

Mix between Dynasty Warriors and Kingdom Hearts has my attention. That being said, pretty much nobody except KT has managed to get musou games right and even they frequently strike out, though some companies are getting better.

Steam will kill the vita's only remaining purpose before too long.

I may try to get in some Tekken tonight, but I am almost entirely clueless on 3d fighters since I haven't played one in years and was terrible then as well.

I wish Tekken 7 had a better character tutorial, or at least something that cycles through the move list as you do them. Unless I just missed that option somewhere. The game might be more popular if it actually bothered to teach players anything.

I think I am on a quest to find out at what point the Tekken 7 matchmaking decides to stop giving you matches for your own good.

Katarina is fun and has relatively easy execution at least.

Well at least they're just coming right out and saying they don't like people with brown skin rather than trying to pretend it's something else, I guess. And I haven't followed Skullgirls but wouldn't that censorship claim mean they redrew at least one character pretty much entirely? If so that's pretty impressive.

Zelda and Horizon are both big hits but like 12 people outside of this forum + Japan even know what Persona 5 is.

The thing that worries me is that because Horizon was outsold by at least one other game then video game executives will see that as "You see? Non buff-white-dude protagonists just don't sell." I also assume they ignore the things Nintendo does because Nintendo is its own little world.

The true endboss of gamers is the pull of work, family, friends, and a limited budget, each of which prevents us all from playing all of the games that we want to play before we die.

my brother is really into fighting games in the sense that he always buys the new ones and has a fight stick and he usually plays them for about a week before he forgets about them. i think his latest obsession is king of fighters on steam at some point.

I am the same, but it's been Tekken 7 of late for me. I want to play GG and KoF but don't have the manual dexterity for it and am too old to develop it.

If you're willing to accept the premise the Nep games are fun if not really particularly revolutionary, and 7 (actually V-II) is generally regarded as the best one.

Haha yeah, that was the other big one I was trying to think of. Like, maybe it's just because as a Nintendo fanboy with no Playstation I was just enchanted by the novelty of voice clips in a console game but I always though Navi was cute and I liked her little "Hey!" and "Listen!"s.

I found Tatl in Majora's Mask way worse because she was super sarcastic and obnoxious and would usually just make fun of you instead of giving you any actual useful advice when you tried to talk to her.

gently caress that owl forever though.

Both Navi and Tatl were good, I'm taking this brave stance.

Holy balls experienced is about 5x harder that rookie but its so perfect feeling until the last boss when you're really gonna need to have some continues stored up.

Gonna definitely replace resogun as my warmup game for when i turn on the system and settle in to play for a while.

Housemarque is the loving best!!!

I played it a bit with mouse and keyboard and it bugs me that playing that way doesn't give you a cursor at the mouse position, just the direction.

I played around 4 hours of EDF last night got to mission 22 or so on normal. Around that beach landing mission with hectors I found the guns I had been getting weren't really cutting it any more, but a quick run of mission 1 on hard solved that. I haven't seen a whole lot of reason to switch away from ranger, particularly on missions where you have to take down transports.

People are good at compartmentalizing things, which I am now questioning whether that is an actual term, but I think it is. Though this has me thinking now, where has this apparent idea that you have to like 100% of something or there's a problem come from? Even outside of the current conversation you see a lot of people throwing babies out with bathwater or bristling at even minor criticism.

I remember this exact conversation happening in this exact forum almost exactly a decade ago. :corsair:

Back then there was a thread specifically for "social issues in games." It got closed repeatedly and swaths of people were banned and probated before things died down.

I guess it's good that the discussion can be more civil at least.

And I just noticed that a lot of people have regdates even earlier than me

It was an interesting thread for a while and I learned some things from it, but yeah it went off the rails pretty quickly on both sides.

It's so weird. I don't actually have anything against it, and I like the idea of horse-people training montages, and also that since they are both horses AND girls, they have other hobbies and sports like ice skating.

I don't watch a whole lot of anime, but I really appreciate how no premise is too loving weird to be explored in an anime/manga. A lot of times it just turns out dumb, but sometimes you get crazy unique stuff like One Punch Man or Madoka Magica.

My friend, have you heard the Good News of Symphogear?
