Warhams 40k Xcom has been pretty good so far. Other than mediocre performance, but it's not as relevant for a turn-based game.

I want more Nioh. It's the only game that solves the issues I have with the soulslike genre.

FFX is the most boring game I have ever played and I have suffered through 30 hours of it become one of my friends kept insisting that "it gets good soon". That'll teach me to trust people.

Do any of the Final Fantasy games hold up if I strongly disliked FFX's characters and story? The only other experience with the series that I have is FFXIV 2.x through Heavensward was pretty drat good. ARR and Stormblood were mostly boring though.

Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous had a very engrossing story that made me tolerate it's godawful combat the whole way through, and it gave me a new...tolerance for D&D-esque RTwP combat so I gave Pillars of Eternity another shot and I'm actually liking it quite a bit so far. It even fixed most of my core issues that I have with the lovely D&D-esque systems. I only tried Pillars 2 before and that game has the worst intro for a newcomer, probably because it seems to be a direct continuation from the ending of the first game.

Dark Souls 2 was so bad it made me stop playing soulslikes. I hope you like fighting dudes in armor because that's like 90% of the enemy roster.

My favorite thing about Dark Souls 2 is how you can start with one of the best weapon for beating the hordes of generic armored dudes, the mace, and then if you have pre-ordered you get to start with an upgraded version of that weapon, the homunculus mace. I found there to be little to no reason to switch from it unless you were fighting two or three enemy types that weren't armored dudes.

anilEhilated posted:I honestly find the game a lot more fun without abusing strike damage. Discovering the mace early on just discourages experimenting with all the weird weapons Dark Souls 2 has. I imagine that it is. The developers should've considered that.

OzFactor posted:So here's a question that is likely to rile everybody up: I didn't ever play Doom 2016 but I always wanted to. But now because I can't ever remember to cancel Humble, I have Doom Eternal. Obviously I'm not asking about the story of a Doom game, but is there any particular reason I shouldn't play Eternal first? Eternal plays like a very different game compared to 2016. Some people even think than 2016 is a better game but those people are wrong. but also Mordja posted:If you play Eternal first it'll make 2016 look like crap, which it isn't on its own. If you have the time, 2016 is definitely worth playing. It's not like it's a long game.

exquisite tea posted:It's easy to be wary of any project that's like "made from the ex-devs of Beloved Game" because 1) they've probably been out of practice in the industry for the past 10 years, and 2) their actual role was like associate line producer or whatever. Now that you mention it, has there ever been a good game that was marketed as "from the makers of X"?

If they did it was probably only on Kickstarter and not on any other broader marketing that I can see at least. I don't know if I'd count that one. Bloodstained is great though.

Witcher 3's combat is actually pretty good, albeit easy and simple. Learning how to beat a pack of wolves with only a sword and without getting hit was extremely satisfying.

Lord Lambeth posted:Skellige felt kind of weird because a lot of it centered on the water and the water combat always felt extremely phoned in. It's one of the parts of the game where the seams of game development struggles looked really obvious. How many quests make you do water combat? I don't remember having to do any water combat at all.
