By s y Go To Postall i said was that there are no qtes in the new oneokay and -> additional comment is that the gameplay sucks anyways so more of that isn't exactly something to get excited for
When is "the uncharted of _____" a diss? lol
not everything needs to be made by platinum or from software. sometimes people want to up down a b lobotomize a god. i thought this was america. last thing this needs to do is try too hard like introduce more narrative, try to be deeper than its ever tried to be regarding gameplay, make you care about the characters, etc.

By livefromkyoto Go To PostI only played the PSP ones when they were on PS+. For the life of me I could not see what the big deal was.The PSP ones weren't anything special at all and no one seems to remember they exist (like the portable assassin's creed games). GoW are tech exhibitions, button mashing, and power fantasy to the xtreme. I mean... they're pretty fun, but its not like games like that need to do anything different.
By s y Go To Postwhen did I say it was a diss? geez.go back to comcast lol
Booted up Xenoblade for the first time. Immediately disgusted by the running and jumping animations and the collision detection... Why cant developers get shit like that right?
By masud Go To PostBooted up Xenoblade for the first time. Immediately disgusted by the running and jumping animations and the collision detection… Why cant developers get shit like that right?it's crazy. In adidition to being boring as fuck, the running/walk animations in Dragon's Dogma are trash. Shit like makes me not even want to play it.
There's apparently no jump button in this new iteration of God of War. So that changes the combat if only a little.
By s y Go To Postit's crazy. In adidition to being boring as fuck, the running/walk animations in Dragon's Dogma are trash. Shit like makes me not even want to play it.Speaking of. Wanderer's running animation is in the top 10. So much character.
God of War 1 was awesome. God of War 2 was garbage. The end.
(Haven't played any of the others. I now pretend God of War 1 is the only game in the franchise.)
Sue me, I like narrative, and 1 ended perfectly. It did not need a direct sequel that ruined everything.

God of War is great
God of War 2 is great
God of War 3 is okay
God of War: Ascension is mediocre
These are scientific facts. There's no real evidence for it, but they they are facts.
The games always seemed caught between having a decent combat system, and never forcing you to learn any of it to complete it. You could probably beat 95% of the encounters by spamming square-square-triangle, and it doesn't really matter how many options you have when that is the case.
Might try playing it again on Hard, got stuck on the first dual Cyclops bit when I tried it like 12 years ago

By Smokey Go To Postgod of war is about the set pieces.fact
gow3 has a top 3 intro of any game in history.
By Random Ass Username Go To PostI'm perpetually baffled at how Bungie and Activision fucked Destiny 2 up this much.

Top 3 for cinematic, set piece driven games. Right? Because I could maybe agree with that.
I think Sea of Thieves looks pretty good
Not sure where its real hook is though, the cosmetics I've seen don't seem like they're enough to keep people running the same loop over and over. Thought you'd upgrade your weapons and ship by collecting treasure, defeating enemies, cashing in quests etc, but apparently not

Always was the worst 1Up Yours / 1Up Show cast member, so no surprise there.
its pretty amazing how practically all those 1up peeps got industry positions
and how is there not a black gaming journalist as prominent as ngai croal back in the day

Steins:Gate 0 is kind of starting to bug me. There's this character who's constantly hitting on his own daughter and threatening to sniff her panties while she sleeps. And the reaction's like "oh you big naughty lug. I love you daddy." *sensitive piano music plays*
Then there's the character who is literally described in the game's narrative as 'legal loli' because she looks 9 but she's actually a 21 year old genius so it's okay.
I know these are anime tropes and this game is in part kind of a parody of them (in the lightest sense of the word parody) but...ugh. Enough already. Just get back to the sci fi neuroscience stuff, that's the compelling part here.

Decided to watch videos of Yakuza on PS2 to see how much Kiwami changed and no wonder the series never got big in America. Those American VOs are atrocious.

By Random Ass Username Go To PostI'm perpetually baffled at how Bungie and Activision fucked Destiny 2 up this much.Even at their peak, Bungie was bad at managing projects. Halo and Halo 2 got rebooted well into development. The Halo 3 story beats were rewritten by Marty O'Donnell like halfway through. They could never get their shit together.
Now the studio is insanely bloated, they still can't keep deadlines, and a lot of the talent behind Halo is gone. So you get Destiny.
What's fucked is it feels and looks great it's not even about development (sound, visuals, those people did amazing tbh) a lot of it is actually just decisions made at the top about how the game is to distribute gear or going through repetitive crap or just stripping out stuff from D1 that was good.
What's fucked is it could be improved but they ain't doin' shit. Here's your hilariously short repetitive DLC. Here's some new gear you basically have to pay real money for. Get fucked.
i feel like i take destiny way less serious than anyone else. we played like 80 hours when it launched, had a ton of fun and when we did everything and then just moved on.
Uggh, I wish the Xbox didn't struggle with my PS Plat headset, even when plugged in through analog. I ordered a thing that changes the 3.5 mm spec to the other popular one and hope that works. Then, I'll try the Xbox headset adapter thing. If even that doesn't work, my last resort is to get another headset. =/
As hyped as I am for KH3, I already know it will disappoint because the Osaka team has done nothing but disappoint when it comes to combat.
By Mariosalic Go To Posti feel like i take destiny way less serious than anyone else. we played like 80 hours when it launched, had a ton of fun and when we did everything and then just moved on.They managed to shit on a bunch of stuff that made D1 good for no discernible reason other than to try to increase micro-transactions.

Very long, but I'm a huge fan of SkillUp's reviews. Does a fantastic job covering The Division's lifespan for people who hopped in recently as well as those who rode the hype train. Definitely worth checking out. Has me thinking about giving it another spin too tbh.
By DY_nasty Go To PostHaven’t watched the review but yes Division is definitely worth checking out again. Rolling with a 4 man squad in the dark zone is amazing. Did that the other day and no one wanted to fuck with us.
