Correct me if I'm wrong but you can be one class in ME1, a different class in me2 and another class in me3. So play what you want for 1, and vanguard for 2 and 3. Edit: I played ME3 for the first time, from like 2016-2020 and enjoyed it. It's not bad. 2 is the best one though, and 1 was absolutely amazing when it came out but is a bit dated now. Tip for #1: If you find driving the mako too hard... you're not jumping enough. Bounce bounce bounce.

Relax Or DIE posted:i've had the key lime, matcha, and strawberry kit kats and tbh chocolate might be the weakest flavor So, I'd never had Hershey's until I moved to the USA. I tried one and discovered why: It's trash. That's why nobody eats it outside the USA. I think Reese's is available in some places and the peanut butter hides the disgusting vomit flavour. Anyway, the reason I mention it is because outside the USA, Kit Kat is made by nestle with nestle chocolate. Inside the USA it's made by hershey's with hershey's chocolate. Kit Kats outside the USA are ok, all right, I'd buy one every now and then. Inside the USA they're loving trash. Nestle chocolate is not great but it's not trash, it's not as good as Cadbury's. "but Cadbury's is crap!" you say. "The package says 'by appointment to the queen' but how could she eat this poo poo?" well. Cadbury's in the USA is also made by hershey's, with the hershey's recipe, it's not cadbury's. The real stuff is better than nestle, for sure, but not anywhere near as good as lindt (the stuff you get in the USA is legit for lindt at least!) If you think I'm being a snob: well, maybe? But Hersheys' has a vomit aftertaste because it's made with rotten milk, which has the same acid in it as your stomach. That's why any time you eat hershey's chocolate it has a vomit aftertaste. The guy who made hershey's already had a caramel factory, and went to europe to find out how to make chocolate. He didn't succeed in his mission so he made his own process up, and as I said, it uses rotten milk. The wikipedia entry says something nice like 'the hershey's process is less sensitive to how fresh the milk is'. (quote: "In 1899, he developed the Hershey process, which is less sensitive to milk quality than traditional methods") So yeah, I've met a lot of Americans who are like, "ok but chocolate isn't actually that great" and it's because Hershey's is very common here. I've been told that Hershey brought chocolate to the masses who would never have been able to eat it otherwise, and I'm an rear end in a top hat, and those people are probably correct.

I didn't know that about him. It's rare for a rich person to be a decent person. I just wish the chocolate were better. The first time I had one I thought I'd got a bad bar from the vending machine.

I didn't grow up with nutella. If you want to insult me, just pick anything bad about South Africans (there are a lot of bad things) https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x64bid6 <-- "I've never met a nice South African". If you really want to make me mad, tell me that biltong is bad, I suppose. edit: VVVV

I really like snickers and twix (both kinds of twix), and M&M's are better than smarties, which is also by nestle but it's what I had growing up.

That bacon is CGI bacon but it also looks more like the non-usa cut of bacon which has more meat and less fat in it. edit: looking at the rest of the meal it's clearly a full English so it wouldn't have streaky USA bacon in it. edit 2: https://parkersbritishinstitution.com/product/english-wet-cured-bacon

I said come in! posted:My brother played Control finally, and said the game sucks and that he doesn't like it. So I don't have a brother anymore, I guess. I finished control but I found it too hard to enjoy. You can't adjust difficulty either (last I checked) or I deserve to get mocked for not changing it to easy. I'm not great at video games but I'm not terrible. I was on a pc with a gamepad and just died all the loving time. Grouchio posted:You'll get your brother back if he likes Returnal. It's been described to me as Control but far better. I've got a friend who said demon's souls is too hard to play without assistance, and he said that he gave up on returnal and had to youtube the ending. Something about 'collect 3 things' or 'beat 3 bosses in a row' or something. - Redreader, the 'It's too hard!' guy.

ONE YEAR LATER posted:monty mole or shy guy all the way Today I learned that there's an imposter Monty Mole. From what I can tell, the Mario one appeared first in 1990? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wanted:_Monty_Mole This one's from 1984. I played Auf Wiedersehen Monty https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auf_Wiedersehen_Monty on my ZX spectrum as a kid.

Nier is great but prey 2017 is so loving good. It's better than Nier, but note I played Nier on the ps3 so maybe the new version is better than prey 2017, but I doubt it. System shock 2 was one of my top games ever though, and prey has the same kind of gameplay so that's why it's my thing. I also LOVED the prey Mooncrash DLC. Deathloop seems like it's probably building on the ideas they tried out in the mooncrash DLC (which is a standalone plot with roguelike-fps mechanics, unlike prey which doesn't have roguelike mechanics at all) so if you're interested in deathloop later this year you should play prey and especially mooncrash to see what to expect. Judgment is fun and astral chain never got bayonetta or revengeance good. I'm 10 hours into judgment and about the same into astral chain, but I put Astral Chain down and don't intend to pick it up again. I was really looking forward to Astral Chain but I never got into it. Judgment doesn't seem like it'll hit the Yakuza 0 highs but it seems almost as good so far and I want to play more.

"best video games about the moon", Bloodborne of course but I enjoyed the poo poo out of Prey: Mooncrash. So here's a quick summary of it. It's a DLC that is not standalone (you need the base game) and is a different kind of game entirely, in a different setting: you crash on the moon and need to escape. the gameplay is still FPS but it has some roguelike elements: enemies are differently placed each run, items are differently placed, some hazards are different, etc. There are some new enemies from what there is in Prey. Your characters start off with no or few skills and more can be unlocked and any skill progression is retained for the next run. You also earn currency after the run which is retained until you spend it. You have 5? Characters. You need to escape the moon with each of them. There are 5 different ways to escape the moon, and each way needs to be unlocked somehow. Every 10? 15? or so minutes the difficulty level goes up and the monsters respawn. You can reduce difficulty with items, you can also craft neuromods with items (that is how you buy the skills, if I recall correctly). So you can use resources within a run to craft neuromods so that your future runs are easier, or you can use them now for ammo/weapons/psi juice etc. You start off with one character, and each character gets unlocked in a specific way. Each character has a side mission that often unlocks another character, I think, and also is important to the progression of the plot. Once you escape with one character you carry on in the same playthrough with another character. You can leave stashes for the next character, kill enemies to make it easier for the next character, etc. The side missions only need to be done once ever, but generally you need to devote an entire run to one because they're pretty tough. The grand finale is you doing one single run and escaping with all five characters in a row, and each character needs to escape in a specific way. There's planning involved, setup for the next character etc, oh and very usefully, all of your characters can basically summon a moving chest, that one character can dump all of their stuff in before they escape and the next character can then summon and take all of the stuff from. All of the characters have different skills, so there's the mechanic who specialises in turrets, the security guy who has a lot of the 'human' combat skills from prey, a psi-power person, etc. Each person has a different skill tree unlike in prey when your one character can learn anything. I think there are also some new skills. After one person escapes or dies you can select an unused unlocked character, buy items for them, and try escape with them too. The more you play in one playthough and the more you get done, the higher your rewards are in the end. With your rewards you can buy items (you unlock more to buy during play IIRC) for your characters to start with or neuromods to instantly buy skill ups. This game is why I am extremely excited for Deathloop. They already did it so drat well in mooncrash, I'm really excited to see how they do Deathloop. redreader fucked around with this message at 19:05 on May 25, 2021 |

Simone Magus posted:Not related to anything: Rinkles posted:I’ve been in a similar hole for a (long) while now. Once I disconnected from my friends when I came to the states from Europe, I had trouble making new bonds, and adjusting to the culture, and eventually I "imploded". I’m sorry but I don’t have much advice to give since I never really recovered. I moved to the USA about 14 years ago. I had moved to the UK 4 years before that and eventually built up a friend circle there, but a lot of South Africans move to the UK so I knew some people already. I knew nobody in the USA when I moved here. I was really lonely for ages, but also an idiot and pushed people away without trying to (because I was an rear end in a top hat). Eventually I settled down and found some goon friends as well as making friends at work, meeting people at parties, meeting people on meetup, etc etc. It sucks that timezones exist because I can't game with my friends in UK/SA apart from on Saturday mornings sometimes. Anyway it does get better, but it takes a while. The first time (UK) took me about 3 years to build up a bunch of new friends and the second time it took me a couple of years at least. But it's a loving job. You'll be alone sometimes on christmas or new years and it'll suck. With time you'll meet more people and it'll get better. One person said to me once 'never refuse an invitation to anything' and I made a point of doing that even if I didn't feel like it and it helped. With the last year... yeah this whole situation sucks. Feel free to PM me (both of you, or anyone else in this situation). IDK how much I can help but I've been in this situation twice before and got through it.

I play cold war once a week with some friends since it came with my video card. I played modern warfare on the xbox 360 a little and never played another one since this one. I play with a group of about 3-6 people and it's really fun, I like it. I do turn ray-tracing off since it's a large performance hit and I honestly can't notice any difference (ray-tracing is a scam). I also enjoy nuketown but there are multiple good maps.

Looper posted:i defeated the final boss of sekiro last night and immediately slammed the record video button because i was too frazzled to actually absorb the deathblow animations. i then fished out my flashdrive and used it to watch the other three endings, having already seen the bad one last month. what an incredible game!! i can't help but be a bit sad it's over now. idk where it will end up since it's still only may but it will definitely rank pretty high on my goty list. the aesthetic of bloodborne holds a special place in my heart, but cainhurst has a rival for best area now in the fountainhead palace. and the contrast between the palace and what you return to afterward! gameplay-wise sekiro is easily the best I've ever experienced out of fromsoft's catalog, and the characters and their relationships were surprisingly moving. the way the final boss screams DO IT before the final blow gave me chills, i keep thinking about it. move over elden ring, i want sekiro 2: journey to the west Congratulations!!! I got up to the final boss and had some trouble. Maybe tried for a total of about an hour or two so far. I decided to wait until I could play this on a better graphics card: I was on a 980 and got a bigger monitor and suddenly the FPS wasn't great. So I got a 3080 in November and just haven't bothered to pick it up again. What was your final loadout? How long did you try to beat him? I want to do this but I'm having trouble motivating myself to try the final boss again. For reference I spent about six hours on genchiro but finally beat him, and in the final boss I've got him to 2 pips left and can generally beat the first pip without taking much or any damage.

I saw the comments about Danganronpa (sp?) earlier and I agree: I did actually play the game and stopped playing after the second or third execution in which someone got turned into "delicious butter" by going around and around very fast, and then was eaten on toast. I didn't like it, it was gross and the plot didn't seem like it was worth playing to see.

I mean it's goofy and all, but it seems that pretty much everyone just dies, and they're unable to escape death. I didn't like it. Here it is for your judgment. Absolutely no context is needed, apart from 'you meet and talk to these people and they have their problems but are humanized' and then they get murdered one by one. IDK, maybe it's Really Good but I didn't like it. I like horror movies but I don't see why anyone would watch Saw, for example. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wnGZMjrpNNs
