i'm curious about a Bethesda conference without Todd Howard or Arkane games, will be the first time we don't really get anything shown from either of those places. I'm guessing Wolfenstein and god help us, Evil Within will get the nod for previews along with whatever shitfart Elder Scrolls Online news and Quake Champions footage we get.

I feel like every River City Ransom project released in the last 2 years has let me down immensely and I expect these to be no different. Maybe Sega will make a new Streets of Rage instead.

No idea if Wild is still in development so I hope we see it at E3 on the Sony stage.

given how every company ever gets their poo poo leaked constantly I don't see how Ubisoft wanting one loving surprise to remain under wraps is A MONSTROUS LIE. jesus, you'd think someone noted for leaking so much would understand that maybe a company just felt like saying gently caress Off, Let Us Have This One Thing. I'm actually shocked Nintendo managed to keep the Metroids under close secrecy.

recently picked up Thumper for Switch to see what all the fuss is about. goddamn wish I picked this up sooner, what a batshit game. I actually was getting antsy thinking the Final Boss was the end of the game. Then I realized this was just world 1 of 9 and there are still new mechanics being introduced.

Squeenix letting the Hitman IP stay with IOI is actually the most decent thing they've done in a long time. They could have easily shrugged about it and shelved the franchise, not giving a poo poo as it rots away. That they had the goodwill to let it go even after losing cash on it is a nice thing of them to do. I think Hitman's sales being low had less to do with episodic format (which worked beautifully) and more to do with the "stats and unlocks tied to online servers" which people did not like at all. Hopefully going forward they will change that one aspect, because I have no idea why that needed to be a thing.

Yakuza 0 should be on some kind of Required Play list, it's my GOTY and the best narrative since MGS2: Sons of the Liberty Bell. Doesnt hurt that the fighting is fun and I love smashing people with bicycles and sofas like some jacked up hulk.

exquisite tea posted:Playing a bad game isn't like watching a bad movie where you can laugh at it for 90 minutes and be done, most of the time they're also horrible mechanically or just plain boring for hours upon hours. I can't think of a single bad game that ever encouraged me to keep playing. Well, besides Deadly Premonition. Last Of Us comes to mind because the gameplay portions, whether it was shooting or doing endless Push A Thing "puzzles," were not what I would call fun, but the narrative is what drives things forward. I enjoyed it overall but would never ever want to play it again.

It's true that you probably aren't going to find anything amazingly useful that transforms the gameplay or a "deep" hunk of content in a Serious Gaming sense, but you could find a cool looking mountain or a village tucked behind a hill or whatever. This won't impress everyone but I found taking long walks/boat rides pretty chill. I should have said specifically said HBO series, and my condolences to anyone who still watches The Walking Dead

ironically God of War is moving completely off the QTE train just as the Spiderman trailer used them in their first gameplay trailer. I think they addressed that later on and said "the game won't be full of those" but I'm guessing whatever qtes they had, they'll probably be trying to get rid of now lol.

SA2 is shockingly loving bad especially since it asks you to basically play the game twice over, with one third being passable sonic levels, one third being awful scavenger hunts, and the last third being braindead mech segments. looking back on that game without nostalgia glasses, it's mindblowing how popular it was when it came out

the only method to dealing with the madness in SA2 is to throw the disc out the window. SA Generations is probably the best 3D sonic I can think of.

In MGS1 and even 2 you had natural backstories about every boss. in 4 they just dumped them on you as clever hybrids of other bosses also sexy women. People complain about the lack of story in MGSV but everyone should understand: after MGS4 it was the biggest breath of fresh air to just do fun poo poo and not have to get interrupted by everything that made MGS4 bad. also my tier ranking is 3 > 2 > V > 1 > PW >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>4 (I have not included Revengeance because it is unfair to compare a Platinum game to these games)

there's only like 20 guards I think in the entire game of MGS1 which is pretty crazy. You weren't really getting into combat very often unless there was a boss so it's a good balance of narrative and fighting. Really wish Twin Snakes hadn't been developed by a madman or we could have had ports of that.

Olive Garden tonight! posted:I beat the story mode of Birthdays in 6 1/2 hours. There are some individual challenges, as well as the free play goal of filling your creature dex. Manipulating the terrain gets worse as the world expands each 'episode', because while your editing cursor expands as you level, the speed at which you actually raise and lower terrain never does. There's an animation every time you raise and lower blocks so you cannot smoothly carve out rivers or anything like that.

CJacobs posted:I've heard that the absolute endgame gets kinda hinky but there's a long way to go before that, lots of fun to be had. I was thinking of picking it up myself! I love Darkest Dungeon, it's a great pickup for 10bux right now. I think I had like 160 ingame weeks (some of it carried over from Early Access) just constantly doing missions and upgrading poo poo. I never beat the Darkest Dungeon because I took a long break then made a second file for the DLC stuff, but it's actually a very low-stress game for me to play since there's no real hard failstate (unless you do hardcore mode) and it's always fun for me to boot it up, do 1 or 2 missions, upgrade a thing, and then close it for a while. If my whole team wipes, whatever, you can hire similar leveled guys now when you upgrade the roster stagecoach so it's easier than it was at launch to make up for lost time. I can see why it can and has driven people insane ("50 hours logged, Negative review on Steam gently caress this poo poo" is common for this game) but to me I never felt like anything was a grind. Whatever I got to do or accomplish, I did, and even if you don't conquer the entire game it's still a lot of fun to beat the various bosses and work your way up to them. Yes there's a shitload of RNG and yes you will get bad luck but there's a lot of upgrades and roster variants to mitigate a lot of the misfortune. It's absolutely worth the tenbux it's at right now. They even added a Radiant mode for people who want all the normal challenge but also would like to have a run be more like 30 hours instead of like 60 (it gives you more monies/artifacts so you can upgrade poo poo faster.) wizard on a water slide posted:Slippy: I can't wait to acquire a SNES Classic at the market-reasonable price of $80 and enjoy gaming.
