Also someone submitted the likeness of FF14's director as one of the preset faces in Nioh 2 and that's funny as heck to me.

I started playing Murder By Numbers and oh my god this game is charming as hell, all the music is like sweet Ace Attorney jams and apparently that wasn't an accident, they got the composer for the first game and Ghost Trick to score the music in this. This is also the first time I've ever played a picross game I was drunk as hell and started getting weepy at all the waves of nostalgia that were hitting me while I played

I want to point out that Ambaire has not responded to anybody responding to them at all, neither to dunks nor to the sincere responses, so Phlegmish coming in and getting dogpiled for trying to defend their honor when they basically did a poo poo and run is pretty funny imo

Tomb Raider 2016 is in a weird place because literally all anybody ever talks about or seemingly remembers about it is the over-the-top death animations and how wildly uncomfortable they made them feel playing the game. Hell that kind of ultrarealistic violence is wildly out-of-place in the franchise as a whole and certainly not touched upon by their main competition, the Uncharted series. (The Last of Us sure, but not Uncharted.) So I wonder who's bright idea was it to go in that direction.

exquisite tea posted:The early concepts for TR2013 were as a survival horror game where Lara wandered around a remote island and rode a horse. Most of this was later scrapped but the brutal opening segment remained intact. That's pretty unfortunate. This is probably a case of creators not wanting to kill their darlings, which in this case is the early work they'd already done.

I don't care enough about anything EGS has exclusively on offer and every time that almost changes some red flag about the game in question goes up that changes my mind. Epic might not be as evil as Apple but they're shadier than Valve both in terms of business practices as well as their treatment of employees. There might not be any ethical consumption under capitalism but there sure is a creeping apathy about getting over the mild hurdles in the way of installing yet another store front client when I already have steam and gog. I mean I also have the blizzard launcher but I can't be arsed to look at it, that's how much apathy I can generate for a company I don't feel comfortable supporting. I also have origin but I spent more effort typing this out than figuring out how to reinstall it to play Titanfall 2 again, which is exactly no effort at all.

Like on the one hand Epic treats dev studios well and the financial windfalls they provide can mean the difference between survival and closure for smaller studios, that's good. They treat their actual employees much worse and development of content for Fortnite is such a notoriously hosed sweatshop that Netflix's Patriot Act called them out on it. They exist in a state of perpetual crunch with 70-100 hour work weeks being the norm. That's hosed up. Not that either of these fairly distant concerns really affect me much as an end customer with little willpower or impulse control. A sufficiently strong temptation could drive me to get over my misgivings and just put in the minor amount of work required to sign up but eh, I haven't been struck by any such impulses yet and so I'm in a state of suspended "meh" about the idea of getting EGS.

Mordja posted:Still a ways away, but Everspace 2 hits EA in December. I still remember the plot reveal at the end of the first game, the protag's sister finally explains what her deal is and what's going on with his constant cloning then dies flying very slowly into an obvious trap. I couldn't help but chuckle, sure hope they weren't aiming for pathos with that one.

MonkeyforaHead posted:I heard it used in reference to plain old crossdressing dudes who did an abnormally good job of it, no gender identity stuff involved, most commonly in the context of anime -- nothing more, nothing less -- for well over a decade before I ever heard it leveraged as a transphobic thing. I... have kind of a hard time believing it originated as a slur? But if so, I guess I'm just glad it's a term I rarely had cause to use. The implication of the term is that they're deceiving straight men, which at its root is the same sentiment that fuels transphobic hate crimes and killings. That's why it's considered it a slur.

KazigluBey posted:I have no dog in this particular (MHW) race, however Overwatch is likewise a game where nothing you buy via lootboxes affects the gameplay per-say, but discounting the social aspect of multiplayer games seems like you're throwing out a pretty big component of how people enjoy these games and the effect that has. People refer to Warframe as "Fashionframe", to give one example. You can put a lot of FOMO and pressure on people through that. OW is deffo a bad one because lootboxes suck lol, I'll grant that at least MHW is letting you target exactly what you want, but it still kinda sucks that it's not something you unlock while playing or as part of a chunky DLC purchase or whatever.  MHW is fine but games like Fortnite are absolutely predatory and their community only reinforces the predation.

The vast, vast majority of MHW's cosmetic content is free in the game and it isn't constantly applying pressure on players to spend more money the way OW or Fortnite does, so you'll be hard-pressed to convince most Monster Hunter players to care about the cosmetic DLC, either for or against.

It's the absurd amount of non-repeated, unique dialogue that got my attention. But yeah if the core gameplay loop doesn't grab you then it's not the game for you.

I heard in BG3 trading prices are based on the Charisma of the character you're using to initiate the trade, rather than your party just having the benefit of a high Charisma character passively. And that you need to manually put items into your party members' personal inventories for them to be able to use them. Is this at all accurate? If so, lol

For D:OS1 the strategy was to steal every piece of artwork you could and dump it on vendors with your "face" character to essentially print money for anything you need. lol Well at least Larian's fans know what they're getting into. Baldur's Gate fans maybe not so much.

strange feelings re Daisy posted:That's actually how Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 worked also. Sell prices were not effected by charisma IIRC but buy prices were determined by the charisma of whatever party member talked to the merchant. So if your leader was a warrior you probably wanted the bard to do the buying. It also lead to the same dumb fiddly mechanics like casting "Friends" or putting on a charisma ring then immediately switching it out for something useful in combat right after shopping. It's been multiple decades so I genuinely forgot all that.
