I have been playing Diablo3 and now Marvel Omegas on my PS4. I am really getting into the whole looty action RPG genre.
Does anyone have any more recommendations for PS4 based games of this nature?

I have a strange dislike when people at work say they will ping me an email.

Also, so far E3 has been a little too quiet for me. I want some raucous excitement and spectacular wins/failings.

Just like all the other Lego games, with some episodes (Portal 2, Dr. Who, Ghostbusters, etc) being among the best they've done.

That settles that for me then! :D Going to get the heck out of it!

It looks like my cup of tea! I enjoyed Symphony of the Night quite a bit.

So was I the only one who thought that when Sonic Mania was only going to have a few new areas, that meant that the repeated ones, like Green Hill and Chemical Plant, were going to be the exact same as their original appearances? I was okay with that, too. But that's not the case

Amazon UK. I'm a prime member and keep getting given credit. It's £26 on there and I had some £6 off thanks to their giving me a discount :D

I think it was more Absolution being poor and affecting the next game, when Season 1 has slowly gathered steam and momentum.

Wow your avatar changed quick. What was with the rogue one you had for a bit? Something you didn't pick out?

I have real trouble picking an avatar. I'm not good enough to make one I like. I am thinking of offering a prize or two to someone who makes me an avatar but I'm not sure if I should offer it in Games or an samart thread or something.

I know if I was a mod, the main effect would be me changing my avatar like every week. I'd contribute to your thread here but the limits of my avatar making tend to be "take a video clip and make it loop in a way I don't hate".

Go for it! You may make some lovely loops that other people could want to use! You never know, you may have a talent for good gifs!

New rule being added to the Games rules thread: STOP TALKING ABOUT PEDOPHILIA OR EQUATING ANYONE WHO WATCHES ANIME A PEDOPHILE.

If you genuinely have evidence of such a hideous crime then report it to the authorities!

drakengard has a pedophile character in it but its a bad thing because all the characters in drakengard are meant to be hosed up, like the lady that eats babies

What on earth?! I bought the game and tried to emulate it on PC. I played the first thirty minutes (before moving on to something else because of the janky controls) but I had no idea it was full of that madness.

I feel like talking about Drakengard is fine, but what was just occurring was definitely not fine.

Thank you VideoGames for the new rule about not equating anime game likers to pedophilia

You are welcome. I don't understand why it happens so much around here. I haven't seen much anime, but tarnishing an entire medium because of some outliers seems like a bad way to judge things.

accusing anyone of being a pedophile without any substantial proof is a bannable offense, so next time you should just ban ppl like that cause its hosed up

You're absolutely correct. There was no real overt statement, just implications, but I will not allow it to go on.

Please can people report this when they see it so that I do not miss it.

Agreed with both parts, there were some good posts and conversations in it

Like I still think the one about "default whiteness" in games primarily developed by Asians for Asian markets, and how white people think characters like Cloud from FF7 are obviously white but Japanese gamers don't see it that way, is loving fascinating because there's a whole lot going on there on both sides and people who treat things like that as if they're a settled issue either way are nuts

I sometimes wish there was still a thread like it and I once actively considered what the OP should look like and what rules it should lay out to avoid it becoming another shitpit and moderator nightmare, but it's not worth the trouble for me personally to try and manage

This might sound insane, but I really enjoyed that thread (despite some of the badposting) and I am willing to allow another attempt at having it. It would have to be locked down in terms of rules, but I am hoping things have changed here enough in the years that we could give it a better try without devolving into petty fights.

While this is true, I'm afraid I have hope that Games might be able to pull together and make a potentially decent thread. I'd be hugely strict in it at least. I know I can be a bit too optimistic.

Sakurazuka posted:

Adam Bowen still posts here occasionally and he'd probably just turn it into the 'Adam Bowen trolls people with his lovely opinions' thread again.

Then he gets banned/probed. I would hope to nip the trolling in the bud. I don't mind being super bad cop in there.

And I wouldn't like to see it, it's a horrific idea. Goons in games are not able to handle this poo poo in any civil manner. They can't even handle similarly inflammatory topics in this thread without going into screaming matches and making the thread complete poo poo because it's never about the subject matter and always about their self-esteem.

Yeah, you're right. I know you are, I just wished we could try to get beyond that. :(
