Just finished the second real boss fight of "Guns, Love, and Tentacles." Unless it just falls off of a cliff, after this point, it's really fun.
I guess the one critique that I have, is that they could have been way more creative with the scenario. Using Lovecraft's racist ass stories, should have allowed for something as imaginative as Dragon Keep. Right now, you're witnessing the madness, via Jacob and Hammerlock (and the town). In Dragon Keep, it felt like an actual DnD campaign. The setting for The Casino had you performing heists and warping back, like an actual Ocean's 11 montage. You had rigged betting and Jack calling you a broke boi. Here, I'm gunning down cultists, weirdos, and horror movie shit...which is still fun, but could go further. I have hours left, so who knows what's in store though.
"Tiny Tina's Dragon Keep," was amazing. Moxxi's Casino, and this (thus far), are right underneath it.
It's a shame that it had such a rough start. They really turned BL3 the fuck around.

By Yurt :3 Go To PostNice xpike!You could have just shortened the sentence to platinum games.
I lost count of how many editions are out there now. I don't know how to feel about Automata, a mishmash of brilliant ideas wrapped around mediocre gameplay and trash art style.
@EldritchTrapStar :( oh man, I was hoping this would pull me back in again.
@sy I just realized that the guy behind DMC3, 4, 5 and Power Stone 2 is the one who made Dragon's Dogma. Stan your boyo

By Yurt :3 Go To PostFor Soulsborne games, always online! The messaging system in Death Stranding was clearly inspired by them
you could summon people to help out and you might also get invaded, which is always exciting.
You should play online, but exciting can also be maddening at times.
Finally started listening to the GiantBomb game of the year podcasts
The crazier people try to make Kingdom Hearts seem, the more boring it sounds. This must be how people feel when MGS2 and 4 are described to them.
Weird how Dan completely dominates the discussion normally for better or worse, but contributes nothing in these. Unfortunately it leaves more room for Ben 😑

What are some PS4 games worth playing?
All I’ve played is the Yakuza series (except 3,4 and 5), the 3 Naughty Dog games, Infamous, Spider-Man and I’m playing God of War right now but it’s kind of boring.

It's meaty as hell. I just hit the third boss and started a sidequest for an optional one. Still haven't gotten to the final boss, yet.
Speaking of, a couple of these sidequests have had some semi-clever, albeit juvenile setups. I don't mind this, at all.
Seems like they also took the story criticisms to heart. Had an incident where something was happening to a character, and instead of standing there looking stupid, the vault hunters actually had to do shit to try and stop it. Who knew that engagement with the story was fun.
I fucking hate Claptrap, but hearing him talk about impossible space, euclidean geometry, and madness has made him not so annoying.
I'll probably finish it up, tomorrow. I think I'm in the last act of it. I still have a bunch of Hammerlock's hunts to finish up (the guns you can get are strong af), a regular sidequest, and the one for the optional boss. Supposedly, this dlc has the best boss in the entire series. I'll see...

I got it off steam so never had to deal with the rough start
man... this is going to take some time to get used to. the combat is totally different. and there's a stamina bar.
and then, of course, there's the issue of the frame rate.
miyazaki is testing me.

By aka Espi Go To PostWhat are some PS4 games worth playing?Persona 5 Royal, Danganronpa series, Bloodborne, Catherine Full Body, Dragons Crown/Odins Sphere, Tetris Effect, Until Dawn.

Dunno if you're into Fist of the North Star. The Yakuza studio did the game.
By bud Go To Postman… this is going to take some time to get used to. the combat is totally different. and there's a stamina bar.it's why I get annoyed when people say Sekiro is a Souls game lmao. Going from Souls to Sekiro or vice versa is a bit hard as you have to curb
and then, of course, there's the issue of the frame rate.
miyazaki is testing me.
your combat tendencies. Quite a few Souls veterans quit Sekiro after trying to roll their way to victory
the start is really rough, because you're underleveled, your weapon(s) suck and they throw at you a Genichiro very early on...a baptism of fire, if you will
but as soon as you level up Endurance and upgrade what you have now you'll be fine.
you beat Isshin, this is all nothing.

Was kinda hoping Raven was in charge of MW2 remastered, they did a really good job with MWR SP. Let’s see if Beenox is up for it.
By Dark PhaZe Go To Postdo we have any predictions on what first party titles the ps5 could possibly launch with?TLOU 2 and Tsushima probably.
confirmed: Outriders (looter shooter), Godfall (looter slasher) and Rainbow Six Siege.
Guerrilla Games has to be working on something too as per usual
edit: oh first party I dunno
man the Persona 5 reviews are really tempting, but I'm not sure if they're reviewing Persona 5 again which I know is great or the new additions. Can we be more specific please...what if they amount to nothing in the end. That's 700 quarantine hours I'm never getting back

By Dark PhaZe Go To Postdo we have any predictions on what first party titles the ps5 could possibly launch with?Maybe a new full-fledged Ratcher title from Insomniac
Demon Souls remake from Bluepoint
Probably something from Japan.
Godfall(will also be on PC iirc)
By Yurt :3 Go To Postconfirmed: Outriders (looter shooter), Godfall (looter slasher) and Rainbow Six Siege.Play Tales of Berseria instead of Persona 5, imo.

At least wait until the new version of persona 5 drops... I'm finding myself less a fan of smt games because they all default to autopilot after a while
By Kibner Go To PostPlay Tales of Berseria instead of Persona 5, imo.oooh! I'll check it out. I've never played a Tales game before (or a Persona before 5 lmao)
By DY_nasty Go To PostAt least wait until the new version of persona 5 drops… I'm finding myself less a fan of smt games because they all default to autopilot after a whileOh yeah I meant Royal's reviews sorry lol
like, Nier's goty edition got 91 and I'm pretty sure the goty edition only added like two costumes or something.
has there been any news of the new tales game? they showed trailers at e3 and tgs and it looked like a huge step up, but no idea if we can still expect it this year
I've never been more skeptical of a Tales trailer in my life.... nothing new though.
I just don't think it can 'fix' the fundamental problems most will have with the game. The combat is basically momentum-pokemon that's extremely punishing. The story and dungeons can carry those types of games still but... yeah :/
By Yurt :3 Go To Postoooh! I'll check it out. I've never played a Tales game before (or a Persona before 5 lmao)Nah, Royal is adding quite a bit.

my fundamental problem was going back to school againnn
persona absolutely dominates in meaningless style points
some decent reviews too.
apparently it's 6 hours long? Watch Eldritch go through it in 17 minutes armed with a coat hanger

I hope the new Paper Mario goes back to not being shit but I would be down for a a lot of Mario HD remasters
If Paper Mario doesn't go back to the Thousand Year Door formula, then they can keep it.
RE3make is looking like it's reviewing as average as the game it's based on is.
Edit:
Hahaha
Gonna try. 😂

By rodeoclown Go To PostMario Sunshine is bad.true af
RE3 sounding like a “Pick it up when it’s $20 in 3 months” kinda game. Enjoyed the demo immensely but a lot of reviewers saying that’s as good as it gets.
By Laboured Go To PostGematsu saying hi-def remasters of Merio Sunshine and Merio 64 will be coming.thinkingemoji
I said at the time that RE3 wasn't good enough to remake, but I understand why they're doing it. And if RE3 isn't good enough to remake, it's not, then Code Veronica DEFINITELY isn't good enough to remake. Same for Zero.
New stuff, please.
New stuff, please.
By Smokey Go To Posti will buy a switch for galaxy and galaxy 2might be too late. good luck finding a switch that ain't been marked up right now
dipro pls advise
