Damn. Between the negative steam impressions and stuff I'm seeing on Twitch. "Slain" is going to have to be a pass for me. :( The art and music is nice though.
By Lambda Go To Postthere's a new F2P on PS4 called Smite, what is this?its been out for pc for ages now
apparently its pretty decent
yah if its SMITE then its a 3rd person over-the-shoulder style MOBA based on various pantheons of gods and goddesses
By Rob Go To Postso the NX leak was fake. https://www.reddit.com/r/NintendoNX/comments/4avdcg/codename_nx/d1ce8fzMore like fuuuuuuuuuuuu back to the drawing board
RIP my steam avatar. I'll miss my Hey Arnold NX controller
By reilo Go To PostBut insidersInsiders that are literally 'my uncle works at nintendo' at that
By Lambda Go To Postgonna give this Smite thing a spinIt's fun
By Xeno Go To PostIt's funplayed it for a little and got a no bueno feeling, friend
To each their own. I really like the game. I enjoy the idea of MOBAs, but I don't like clicking everywhere to move and target things. WASD movement with mouse aiming is more my speed, and I like playing with a controller even more. So Smite on consoles is right up my alley.

I'm pretty into it now. Wish i had a squad to play with, solo gets frustrating as you're playing with people who clearly don't understand the idea of roles or the strengths and weaknesses of the characters they pick.

yea its disappointing
finally played a few hours of DS3 on a m8 Xbox
dissapointingly easy, bosses are mostly tall humanoids with the same "swipe horizontaly 3 times, ends with a vertical smash" combo, if you're decent at these games you shouldn't have much trouble
graphics are good but it runs worse than BB (Xbox version so PS4 is probably better)
i'll play a bit more after the Portugal match but right now it's way below BB and probably on par with DS1 and Demon's, better than DS2

By Smokey Go To PostQuantum Break Live Episodes Pack is a 75GB download?
da fuk
So is that the full game or what.
By Smokey Go To PostQuantum Break Live Episodes Pack is a 75GB download?This is just if you want to download it for some weird reason. It streams when you play the game.
da fuk
shit, ended up finishing DS3
ending i got was a bit dissapointing
final boss was excellent. it did something similar to what Kojima was trying with MGSV and i liked this better
BB>DS1=DS3>DemS>DS2
could probably change once i play it from the beginning but right now that's my ranking

If you dont want to play it dont play it anymore.
Either you already got your enjoyment out of it and are now just playing it as an obligation, or you hated it from the start and tortured yourself. Beating it wont change anything other than you being able to tell someone you beat the game when they ask you why you hated it

Well that was fucking dumb and infuriating. First time playing PS4 in MONTHS and it decides to go into rest mode on its own halfway into my second Destiny match.
By DY_nasty Go To PostThere's a really big update coming to destiny in April
I'd post a better write-up but mobile
if by really big you mean "not big at all" then i agree with you.
By Dipro Go To Postif by really big you mean "not big at all" then i agree with you.Bigger than crimson days and .3

just reached the end game of the division and even while farming a glitch for phoenix credits it would take me days of farming to buy stuff
going to hold off on this game for a while until the economy gets balanced out a little more--damn, this might be worse than year 1 destiny end game grind

Looking forward to DS3. I've beaten the first boss on Demon's Souls, got to the hub area in DS1, never played DS2 and beaten Bloodborne four times.
I've played The Division for a day now and I've realized that like half the missions are you mowing down hungry looters. Basically the 'hook' is you murdering hordes of proles and saving elite professionals deemed worthy of salvation and shelter to build your base up. This is a fucked up game man 💀
Whoever came up with the base idea for this game is a sociopath
I'm still playing doe

Not enough tbh. Maybe you can get much more from DZ, doubt it though.
Really bored of The Division right now and kinda regretting my purchase. Doing the side missions and trash in between the main missions is really tiresome.
If the game was just the main missions it'd be much better...
Oh well, Dark Souls 3 is coming out soon I guess.

Yeah, The Division's shelf life is probably fucked.
Getting left behind by people using exploits.
'Use them yourself,' they say.
Fuck that, I say.

Level 43 in Black Desert Online. I think the grind is worse between mid 30s to level 40. Up until that point, you get a lot of combat quests that naturally guide you on where to go kill things for XP. Those dry up in the 30s until you hit level 40 and can kill Chimeras for days. I finally found a grind spot in the north that's actually really profitable and was not busy at the time. Yesterday, someone on reddit made a threat pointing the spot out so it may be overrun now. Guildie is stuck in the mid 30s and I've been helping him grind at that spot, though my level difference means we get no party XP bonus.
So I'm working on non-combat things until he catches up. Have my fishing boat built and my trade nodes connecting from east to west. Have my garden set up for constant Farming. That's actual farming, not grinding spots. I grow Sunflowers and Strawberries, then sell them on the Marketplace. I recently found the scented tea recipe, which sells well and uses fruit and seed, so I turn part of my crop into that to level my cooking and then sell the tea afterwards. I just found out you can turn larger quantities of crops into barrels of crops which the NPC Traders will buy. So I just started doing that.
The game is a deep dive, which makes most of the website reviews of the game worthless. I read the IGN review and The Escapist review, and it's apparent they didn't spend much invested time with the game and you sort of have to invest into the game to get it. A good deal of it is the game's main flaw in being so obtuse at first, while having so many systems deeply interwoven for the player to figure out.
Though some of the things you read in website reviews are flatly incorrect. One review commented that the Energy system is a holdover from F2P schemes and talking to NPCs cost energy, but that's entirely wrong. The Energy system is pretty much a progress bar, the same as your XP Level and your Contribution Points. Energy applies to non-combat and non-quest dialogue activities, and it's limited to create scarcity and specialization. If everyone could farm the public corn fields without any limit then nobody would use the farming system and the economy would go out of wack. You would have bots overrunning the forest, cutting down every tree 24/7. Instead, you have limited personal means of energy expense which you supplement by hiring workers, giving them lodging and feeding them with beer. So you can still gather tons of lumber from the forest if you wish, but it's an involved system of real estate holding, worker management, cooking, trade routes and energy use rather than a repetitive action of going from tree to tree and pressing R to cut them down.
It does cost energy to have deeper dialogue and build amity with character NPCs, but that's a mini-game option that opens up new quests or item discounts or access to special items in the NPC's shop. If you want to mainly RP or have the best housing or be the #1 horse breeder in the server then working on amity and using your energy that way would be valuable. However, you can totally ignore that and specialize in something else, or do a bit of everything. Like any RPG, your energy is basically points you invest into activities you want to do or skills you want to build up. Doing quests along those non-combat lines also increases your Energy and Contrib points, essentially creating a secondary progress system to pursue alongside or instead of Character Level & Gear attainment.

Love your write ups on that etio. Eventually I'm hopping into PC gaming again and I've got a monstrous backlog
I watched a bunch of Overwatch streams and man that game looks so fucking good. Like, probably top 3 most hyped games for me this year. I put thousands of hours into TF2 but eventually got bored(mostly because I found a large majority of the new items disappointing and the fact that they were based off RNG drops kind of ruined the game for me) and this looks like the sequel to TF2 that I want.
Want to check out Black Desert, but I'm waiting a while because I want to see if it's another Blade & Soul, Wildstar, whatever else where the community almost completley moves on after 3 months.

A large chunk of every MMO game's community moves on after 3 months. There is a migrating herd in MMO worlds and that is what they do. However, healthy games stabilize and recover.

I'm enjoying DA:I way more than I should. As cheesy and campy as the story is, I'm really appreciating this pre-teen "are you Jesus?" storyline. All these self-hating characters too. Its just great.
I can't wait for Overwatch. It's going to be the one game that can tear me away from Smite. It's going to be murder on my backlog.
