The English audio is that bad?

The baby brother character is a lot easier on the ears when he's constantly saying MAMAN rather than MOOMIE, but otherwise the English voices are quite good.

I liked both just fine? What problems did you have?

The few changes I saw, like the new on-foot weapons and SP only recharging on drops, all felt like big changes for the worse, and I really couldn't stand the music.

The Origins thing where they suddenly remember they gotta set up the Asscreed lore at random times during the game is really jarring. I remember jokingly suggest that Bayek would lose a finger by accident when he gets the hidden blade and it would somehow turn into a tradition and whoops, that's exactly how it goes. The Assassins emblem that shows up is just a random shape that got formed when he dropped a skull on the sand. They keep repeating the word "Creed" in the last quarter of the game until it loses all meaning.

At least you don't have to go back to the present day. Much.

Starcom Nexus - I like space games but no two reviews seem to agree on just what this game is? Twin-stick shooter? RPG? Very deep? Very shallow? It has trading, but the previous review says that, no, it doesn't?

Top-down spaceship RPG, in the vein of Star Control II. Explore space, send away teams to die land on planets, talk to aliens, shoot at aliens, gather minerals and science points to upgrade your ship from a tiny scout shuttle to a big-rear end dreadnought. It's pretty good.

I'm completely loving bored of the :rock:METAL:rock: aesthetic, but this looks like they're taking the right things from Dark Messiah, so I'm on board.

Seriously, :rock:METAL:rock: in video games has gotten boring as poo poo because it hasn't evolved since the mid-90's. It's been the same gore, pointy bits, and boring wallpaper riffs since Doom.

This seems silly to me, because e.g. DUSK and AMID EVIL are both metal as gently caress yet totally different from each other

e: okay if they actually say "Metal AF" then that gets old quick, yeah

Being worse than Valhalla is pretty damning

I think "not up to par" means "less of the poo poo VA-likers inexplicably like"

for instance CT probably does not have characters whose only purpose is to be references to Seinfeld or Yiik

I'm not convinced these people are real. Internet nazis are definitely real, but the idea that this old self-deprecating joke has any higher meaning is dumb as poo poo. Keep in mind that the Awful Septic Tank was called the Comedy Gas Chamber until like a month ago. Is everyone who posted here prior to that a crypto-Nazi?

It's just goon hivemind hyperbole, people repeating things at each other until they become true. It's like how people here will swear that Reddit is a sea of pedophiles (when it's a giant website, with like a billion users, which doesn't do enough to stamp out paeds), or how Games Workshop staggers from one disaster to the next (when it's a fairly-successful business that sometimes makes decisions that piss off the fans), or how the CineD subforum is elitists huffing their own farts and bullying any normal people who wander in (true on the fart-huffing, but they're very welcoming people). I remember a couple years ago in one of the Chapo threads someone said, as a joke, that Matt Christman had gotten divorced, and for weeks afterwards you had people who genuinely believed it.


What are you talking about? What is this scenario? You're in a multiplayer match with some Nazis, and you say, "actually the term 'PC master race' was first used ironically", and then everyone cheers until they leave the lobby?

I just thought it's a really stale joke

I'm looking for recommendations of a game that's hack-and-slash-ish, and that has ridiculous over the top attacks that are bright and colourful and full of lasers or explosions or similar. I just bought Van Helsing, for example, because a Diablo-like would be good (As opposed to a Devil May Cry-like), but it's not over the top enough and the game systems (Level-up stats, skills, etc.) are a bit too involved for me to want to put the time in to get it to "Holy poo poo this is awesome". I've generally played all of the well-known hack-and-slash games, so I'm looking for recommendations of less well known games. I tend to avoid games like Dynasty Warriors because the combat feels very light.

Which ones have you played? How over-the-top is over-the-top enough?

Next on my list is Star Wars: Jedi Outcast. Played through most of the first level and it's not bad so far, very cinematic, pretty big leap coming from Dark Forces 2. For a 2002 game it doesn't even look terrible with 1080p modded in.

Still having trouble figuring out the best way to deal with enemies. Circle strafing like it's Doom doesn't seem to be very effective, but even when I stand completely still I miss most of my shots like an idiot.
