and it'll warm your heart
By DY_nasty Go To Postxenocard was awesome. i'd pay money for it
I didn't do any of the optional minigames. I think I kinda just wanted it to be over by the end game
I assume that's a yes. saw some fan art and comments that led me to believe this, but good to hear I will have a reason to complete the game.

By Smokey Go To Postnever buying a console outside of black friday going forwardyea
normally when i buy shit im aware that down the line it'll be cheaper but damn, they're basically giving these things away for free now.
My brother lent me Uncharted 4...I knew I should have touched it but Smokey said it was boring, so I just wanted to see it for a bit & then get back to work.
6 hours of being glued to this thing later, I think Smokey is a bot. No human with a pulse could be bored by that prison escape sequence, and no true graphics whore could be unimpressed by those faces. Like, Sam is a real dude. Now I have to stay up all night catching up on work...thanks, robotron.

Uncharted 4 is horrible.
Garbage traversal and "danger" scenes that have no tension (because of how automatic the game mechanics are) make up like 50% of the game.
Also, Nate has the most eye-rolling origin story of all time.
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is good, good writing and great exploration.

I've come to decide that the posters with letters instead of usernames should be ignored when it comes to gaming

the only good thing about uncharted 4 gameplay was crash bandicoot
should just sell a bluray of the cutscenes, it would be 100 times better and save everyone a bunch of time

The Crash part was pretty good.
I would say that there were some gun fights that had interesting level design and were good. But there are very few gun fights in the game and the ones at the end of the game are just linear whack-a-mole which was pretty disappointing.
the shooting felt off compared to UC2 but everything else more than made up for it.
Libertalia is probably the most beautiful place ever put in a videogame

Some of this dialog is good!
There's not much plot, but Adam Jensen trolls people pretty well and the people actually respond in an interesting way.

idk, maybe those games just aren't for me anymore. i played the hell out of uc1 and uc2, even uc3 which i didn't like that much i played through 3 times. i tried to replay 4 and i just couldn't do it, uninstalled a little into the jail part.

It's jus escapist entertainment for me. I like to just breathe in the atmosphere and look at all the details devs put in the environment and appreciate the level of craftsmanship involved. If it's got a couple of interesting characters, or some entertaining puzzles to solve, that's just gravy.
UC4 is pretty much pinnacle of this kind of experience.
By reilo Go To PostDeus Ex good dialog wooooow
>:(
"You are a disaster for public relations."
"You augs aren't doing yourself any favors either!"
I thought this was funny and came off as somewhat natural.
I just watched a whole playthrough of Heavy Rain so maybe my standards are lowered now that I'm playing Mankind Divided.
That Human Revolution scene is terrible and really racist so I was surprised that the dialog in this game seemed pretty good!

By Xpike Go To Postwhat in the fuck
Deus Ex 1 is even more racist than Human Revolution so the series has been very bad about this.
There was an obvious decision to put more people of color into Mankind Divided as people were pretty (justifiably!) outraged at the racism in Human Revolution.
The having competent non-white characters thing is undermined by having the story about disability be told in language and metaphors that are obviously related to either black or Muslim oppression though.
It's weird that a game that has obvious real life parallels to ableism decided to go with ghettos instead of asylums and made choice after choice to compare talk about discrimination that is obviously similar to discrimination against the disabled to discrimination against black people and Muslims. It's an irritating and lazy choice they made.

the racism/apartheid stuff in makind divided is completely incoherent given the events of human revolution
however blm is topical so eidos decided to use it as window dressing in their vidjya game where you play as cyborg batman

There is an interesting story to tell in Mankind Divided though about mental illness and ableism in general but they fall back on other metaphors for discrimination and it's sad.
People who suffer from mental illness so severe that they hurt themselves or others exist and they face extreme discrimination. It's just that this form of discrimination is different (more blatant fear from strangers, better support systems sometimes) than discrimination against people of color. They combine the two together and it just becomes a "hating someone for being different is bad!" which... sure, it's true, but Deus Ex punts on a good opportunity to tackle an issue that is barely talked about in video games (and is overused as a plot device to create evil villains). It's sad.
But the dialog is good, mmkay. Jensen's sarcasm and how people fuck with him back is very good and better than The Witcher's back and forth jabbing (since the people Geralt trolls are often dull).

I think Eidos went a really lazy route by trying to tie in the aug lives matter things into the marketing and game but from what I've heard in-game there's a pretty big justification over why everyone's afraid of augs, making it all seem weirdly racist in the end.

The setup to the game is that a bunch of disabled people (who have been fixed up by augments) get hacked and go on a killing spree through no ill will of their own. It's obviously comparable to severe mental illness and the game should be about that.
... But instead there are a bunch of obvious metaphors to anti-black and anti-Muslim bigotry and it's really weird.
I like the VA in this game >:(
Every single game hero is a sarcastic, cynical smartass and they're all so boring and annoying, BUT Adam Jensen is the best out of the sarcastic, cynical smartass hero.
"It's easy. Bad stuff in tank, I shoot tank, done."
"You are a disaster for public relations."

It's hard to blame voice actors when the writing is bang average most of the time
I was trying to list games with good writing and I noticed that all of them were voiced by British actors. Lemme go over their scripts again while reading it out loud in an American accent and then I'll get back to you!

The counter argument is that Jensen's VA's real voice is exactly the same as his Batman voice.

But that calls into question the casting decision when you hire a guy who speaks with a Batman voice all of the time.
BUT

Same with Geralt. Their gravelly voice is not nearly as fake or annoying as say....David Hayter and Christian Bale.
David Hayter was so bad that I was GLAD he was replaced with Raiden eventually :lol
'May-jrrrrrrrr'

On a different voice acting note, Mark Hamill fucking slaughtered in Batman Arkham Knight but Kevin Conroy was absolutely terrible in that game which was kind of weird.
I guess Hamill was giving a shit about acting again whereas Conroy was just there to cash checks (which is fine, he's 60).
Obviously they cared a lot more about Hamill's script than Conroy's too though.
