I just don't find amusement in multiplayer games anymore. So many devs have just sucked the fun out of going in solo and kickin' butt.
Vanquish is one of the worst third person shooters I've played last ten. All style, no substance. Beneath the flashy traversal mechanics lies an incredible shallow experience. Bad gunplay, piss easy enemies, sterile aesthetic etc.
Absolutely do not see the appeal in that game.

I got the Platinum in Vanquish. (Which takes you through everything the game has to offer short of its unplaytested hardest difficulty)
and I will never play it again in my life. lol
Silky's right. Like most of Platinum's games it leaves an incredible first impression, but in the end there's little to no lasting substance to their games. Bayonetta I feel is the only game they made with the kind of depth their audience likes to champion them for, and even then I feel that's only true for the first one.

Controls and traversal were brilliant in Vanquish, so was the suit design. Everything else was forgettable at best. That's enough for a lot of people, but I find my enjoyment from games in other areas tbh.
By Tea Go To PostI just don't find amusement in multiplayer games anymore. So many devs have just sucked the fun out of going in solo and kickin' butt.Are you playing any non-team based multiplayer games? Because that sounds like you are annoyed about not being able to carry a team.

Agreed on Vanquish. I played the demo like 20 times, it was so good. But then you get to the actual game and it gets super-repetitive and the story is terrible, but not in a fun way.
By KingGondo Go To PostBayo was a great game but I've never gotten stronger douchechills from a game's story and aesthetic.
I can respect that. Honestly the story is nonsense and the art direction is an acquired taste at best.
but as a game it's just one of the few where everything about it just makes sense. Everything feels good and the mechanics and content have real depth that makes the game rewarding to explore even after a basic completion.
I liked Bayonetta so much I forced myself to like and play everything PG made afterwards until I reached a point where I couldn't lie to myself anymore lol. (Metal Gear Rising)

By Kibner Go To PostAre you playing any non-team based multiplayer games? Because that sounds like you are annoyed about not being able to carry a team.I don't like rumbles much either, always assisting clowns, mostly just play Hearthstone until that annoys me or word games on my mobile. I don't need to win in Overwatch or Destiny, and I don't dare try even more gibby one shot kill boom stuff but the team mates I've witnessed are beyond stupid. I don't even care all that much about the win but when they make it impossible to compete on any level solo I just don't see any point. And they award everyone for playing like an idiot or smart all the same. In OW you can't even get a better read on how well you did, how's anyone gonna improve? What's with the hand holding. I don't get it. Skill gaps narrowing, paper rock scissors and randomness in everything. I think I'm just over this latest gen. Devs raking in record money and balance issues or glitchy OP nonsense in every game. Meh.
/old man rant
How long is Gears 4? I'm on act 3 and these games don't usually have more than 5 acts, but the game is speeding by.
It's neat, so far.

Also, how's ME: Catalyst? I hear they ruined the game with open-world, but it's free on EA Access and I haven't used my 1 month trial yet.

By data Go To PostI give Mikami the credit more for Vanquish than Platinum tbhhow the fuck this makes sense
mikami was part of platinum when he made it
the credit goes to both

Worst? No. I can think of a few from the PS1 era that fit the bill.
Vanquish was mediocre. They swear by it on Gaf, but I just don't see the appeal.
Bayonetta is basically God of War to me except with a likable protagonist. Mash dem buttons!
I actually think Wonderful 101 is better than Bayo (have not finished Bayo 2 yet).
By Xpike Go To Posthow the fuck this makes senseHe was the director
mikami was part of platinum when he made it

Platinum hasn't made a good shooter since
Wonderful 101 is a game I feel also exemplifies what I was saying about their games leaving great first impressions, but not really having much substance beyond that
The game has barely any content. They sort of run out of enemies and start reusing them half way through the game, and the game is loaded with all these pace breaking gamepad minigames to try and hide that.
Those combo videos are nice and all, but in practice they won't work on like 80% of the enemies in the game, which is why they all are done on the one enemy type. Actually playing the game is nothing like that. The actual combat is way more rigid with you only being able to damage certain enemies with certain abilities making a lot of the encounters play out the exact same way every time.
That said, W101 probably has the best art direction of any PG game period, and its cutscenes and story are incredibly spectacular and genuinely thrilling on your first playthrough. There's a lot to enjoy on a casual single playthrough. I just feel the game doesn't hold up when you try and go any further than that.

Oh I never played that one. Stayed far far away from all their licensed stuff.
Just beat Owlboy.
I really enjoyed the story and it's characters, gameplay was a bit iffy with that weird "pick me up" mechanic and forced stealth segments.
Game is worth playing just for the great pixel art

My Summer Car is basically Animal Crossing with all the relaxation and cuteness ripped out
yet I somehow enjoy it.

By Dark PhaZe Go To Postwitcher 3's combat is many years better than skyrim, should not even be compared really
Yeah I find witcher 3's combat to be really mediocre and become boring as fuck. But man, Skyrim is so much worse.
By Kuma Go To PostKingdom of Amalur had the best open combatIt was pretty good but super samey...
That game could have been SO good...
By DY_nasty Go To PostI don't think I've ever played a game more soulless than Kingdoms of Amalur.kept waiting to find a hub of dudes jumping

Fuck whoever was responsible for this Forza Horizon 3 Windows Store faulty update: http://www.gamespot.com/articles/psa-forza-horizon-3-update-bug-on-pc-can-wipe-your/1100-6446610/
Long story short, the wrong update was uploaded to the store and pushed out to all Windows users. This update does not let players load their existing profiles and can even corrupt and override their current profile. A player's profile, btw, is basically their save file. Yeah.

PC gamers are bar none the thirstiest anywhere, you see that in practically every thread. Vita owners knew to give up asking long ago, and Xbones are just PS4 owners' second console.
