It's not ideal but AAA gaming being increasingly crammed with grubby garbage features just means more time for cool smaller games and visiting stuff I missed/old favorites, so it's hard to be too bummed on a personal level.

Speaking of which, have they detailed the RDR2 online functions at all yet? I have a sneaking suspicion that, given how much money GTAO made, interacting with the online functions will be a lot less optional.

C-Euro posted:The best piece of advice that I ever received yet can't be bothered to actually follow is "if you box something up for a move and it's still in the box by the time you move again, just get rid of it". That said we did move into a smaller apartment in our last move and it felt pretty good offloading a bunch of stuff. Can't wait to pick up a bunch of useless crap when we actually get a house. This is good advice. I moved like 2.5 years ago into my current bad apartment and I found a box with like, 20 pounds of Arkham Horror sets which I think I'm just gonna throw in the garbage if no one I know wants it.

I asked my eye doctor about LASIK and he used the phrase 'that dog won't hunt' ten times in two minutes, so I guess he meant be careful about who you go to for it. Don't be a Ryckert.

I guess that Red Faction Guerilla Remaster is out, and free on Steam if you own it? I'm curious to see how that game holds up, I loved loving around in it when it game out.

Looper posted:I'd buy her a beer Game companies should hire people specifically to abuse reddit posters imo. My biggest problem with Destiny 2 (and Destiny 1 I guess) is that it's a far-flung science fantasy future and the weapons and powers are one step further than any given near-future Call of Duty. They should get weird with it, give me incomprehensible alien guns please.

The firings seem like bullshit and I'd give up Guild Wars 2 forever, if it didn't bore me to tears every time I've tried it since launch. Also - I beat Pillars of Eternity 2. I might write up longer thoughts later but my short review is - Good, a big improvement over POE 1 (which I also liked.) I have issues but given their track record, with DLC and patches I'm sure most of them will be addressed at some point. Things that probably won't get changed are that I think the main story needed a new more major quests, and the companion quests (that I finished) are okay but not that satisfying. They honestly seem like middle-chapter stories, leaving the characters open to show up in a theoretical third game/major Throne of Bhaal style expansion.

I knew a grown man a few years ago who, flush with money from a well paying new job bought himself a top of the line gaming PC and only played Runescape on it. He'd been playing for years. We'd try to get him to play other stuff with us, and he'd always not show up or bail immediately to get back to it. So, that is the kind of person who is been subbed to WoW for 14 years. I play it a month or two a year now, just to enjoy expansion launches or see what they've done, but even that is shrinking because it's designed to be way too punishing for people who aren't playing constantly.

I liked West of Loathing, but it only took 2-3 hours to beat (since I didn't do all the sidequests) and that was probably a bit more than enough.

Axiom Verge is worth checking out, but imo suffers from having basically no fast travel options. If you suck, like me, it's easy to end up wandering a lot to no end. It probably doesn't need like, a bunch of Castlevania teleport rooms, but there is a middle ground it could have hit better.

Phantasium posted:To elaborate, there's just a hallway that's connected to nearly every area with a giant Giger head monster you ride to go quickly to other areas. It's better than nothing but still takes forever, and as a consequence makes the map into a really boring circle. Yeah, it has this, and in fairness it looks cool...the first couple of times.

Imo the xenoblade series from best to worst is X -> 2 -> 1. They're all pretty good but 1 bleeds its strong start and initial good will so fast and never recovers. X has a busted story and some weird design but I actually felt inclined to finish it, so

The White Dragon posted:i liked vesperia when i played it (except for one part) but in retrospect you can see a lot of the executive decisions in re-tuning the story. i think it had a good balance between regular attacks and special attacks, and it has less "crazed babble" problems when compared to more modern tales games where every attack is a special attack that needs to be shouted whenever you cast it Alternatively, I'd like any button I hit at any point in a Tales game to cause someone to shout an anime attack.
