By reilo Go To PostWas a joke to an old IGN review:See, I never had a problem with this because Jared Leto has the same amount of oscars as Al Pacino.
By reilo Go To PostSpecifically we're talking GTAIV. Which, I thought, was okay for a story. Maybe that makes it "great" for a videogame? I don't know.I was talking about the discussion that lead to the GTA talk. No need to blast a dude's impressions of a game you haven't because you want it to be good.
As for "good for a videogame" is kinda what it is... I mean do we hold comic books to the same standard of other literature?
videogames above all media have to get so much right to be good. Graphics, Gameplay, story, even replayability and MP... so many moving parts... and open world games have even more open parts... GTA's story was really good to me and really work with the game
I think you misinterpreted my comments to the preview based on the limited information I had. I was just saying to take it with a grain of salt considering some of the hyperbole around videogame stories in general. To clarify, I don't anticipate the FFXV story to be good just hope it's interesting/decent enough to keep me playing the game, which FFXIII failed to do (along with its other issues).
A good vidya game story is simply one that keeps me interested. Asking for more than that is setting yourself up for disappointment unless you are playing a visual novel or something.
I miss the simplicity and characters of ps2-era GTA
Really hope they ditch the multiple playable characters, doubt they will though

Playing the Steep beta and still really enjoy it. No idea when I'll have time for it though. Next game on my list is Watch Dogs 2 but I still want to put way more time into FH3 first.
People need to stop comparing it to SSX though. It's like comparing Skate to THPS.

By Hitch Go To PostI miss the simplicity and characters of ps2-era GTAI hope they either rebuild the whole system or drop it, as it was there really were no noticeable differences between the 3 beyond the ability of doing 3 games at once.

Rather prefered the GTA4 system of interwinding stories with some shared missions.
By S.igh Go To PostA good vidya game story is simply one that keeps me interested. Asking for more than that is setting yourself up for disappointment unless you are playing a visual novel or something.I also feel like it depends on the genre
In an RPG, I kinda need a somewhat decent story to justify the amount of hours I'm gonna sink in
In Oblivion I wanted a longer assassination guild side quest. Easily the most fun thing in that game. "Now go sneak in the house and loosen the screws on a wall mount to make it look like an accident." Pretty good.

By S.igh Go To Postwatching streams of FFXV….how do those streams of kingdom hearts look
I watched the Conan Clueless Gamer and lolled at the pushing the car shit and the bridal dress stuff.
Has anyone upgraded their PS4 HDD and if so, what HDD do you recommend? Realized that the built-in one won't work with actual games coming up.
By DY_nasty Go To Posthow do those streams of kingdom hearts look
january kh2.8
march kh collection on ps4
maybe even kh3 in fall
Everything 'dumb' that XV has been mocked for is the shi that made me interested in it. Like if it was another pie in the sky written FF like pretty much all of them since the PS1 era have been then I'd have had no interest.
But all the goofy weird shit makes it look like Deadly Premonition and I love it.

Isn't it an action game now? Does it share any similarities with the previous RPGs in the series that people like?
Got Rachel and Ragna in Fantasy War Tactics. Working on Noel next. I wish this game wasn't so obvious about it's gacha trappings though. :/ Still, it scratches the FF:Tactics itch.
Really thinking about pulling the trigger on Halcyon 6. Looks piff.

By Red Blaster Go To Postthere's no way ffxv was going to be any goodEarly impressions are signaling otherwise. Or are you saying that you're surprised that it might be?

By S.igh Go To Postjudging by the spoiler thread on gaf….it's taken a turn for the worseIn terms of story or structure?
By S.igh Go To Postjudging by the spoiler thread on gaf….it's taken a turn for the worse:lol
People losing their shit at the ending and other stuff.
The fact that people are saying the game goes on rails like 13 at some point seems like cause for alarm..
Japan seems so bad at Action RPG combat. Which is weird given how many great combat systems originated from devs from the country. They just can't apply it to bonus rolls at all.
course I think the Tales games have always controlled like sluggish booboo and Radiata Stories is the closest JRPGs ever got to good combat.

who let Blizzard make a FPS?
honestly i could never play a multiplayer game "casually" until OW.
i just wish there were private servers where you could ban certain characters because i keep getting the hanzo mains
From LR console to PC, it was like only 2 years, reilo.
FF13 was tainted by Lightning though, so FF15 is already better by default, blackace.

I feel like I'm gonna play Watch Dogs 2 and then feel bad that Mafia 3 did better than it by a significant margin in sales.

By DY_nasty Go To Postits currently Tales games by a significant margin but aite.No lie Berseria is pretty damn good.
By reilo Go To PostTales of Vesparia was the best jRPG last gen and it wasn't close.over Dragon's Dogma? nah son.
By reilo Go To PostIs Dragon's Dogma a jRPG? I never played it.It's like Dark Souls in the sense of the combat and atmosphere but Dark Souls is slower and more skills based whereas Dragon's Dogma gives you more verticality and flexibility with your movements. Dark Souls has you facing difficult obelisk of bosses but Dragons Dogma gives you a sense of scale where you can get on your boss and actually fight them in a more dynamic way.
It's a matter of taste tho, one is more skills based but you can't go wrong with the other.
If you want to scratch the itch I really recommend it.
By S.igh Go To Posttales lmaoTales combat is piff.
star ocean is trash too btw
And Star Ocean is a rarity. Few franchises get to die 3 distinct deaths.
By DY_nasty Go To Posthey shun, i'm thinking of importing gundam breaker 3PM me next time cuz I rarely go to other long running active threads other than NBA.
there's subbed versions out there right? im new to this
There is a english version of Gundam Breaker 3. If you still have your Vita on 3.60 firmware to homebrew it and a memory card big enough you can borrow a copy to try out the game.
The game is pretty good, if you ever play other Gundam Breaker games the combat improved a bit, but it isn't amazing. But it is better than before.
The whole appeal is to do cool shit while building your own custom robot of whatever you want.
Gundam Breaker gets super grindy and boring after the initial woah wears off. And I say that as someone who likes a lot of musou games.
The maps are incredibly repetiive and small.
