...still cannot believe RDR2... that game is something below average at best. Only overzealous leftists who love the libtard propaganda would overstate the quality of that game. 100s of millions of dollars produced that turd, no wonder r* never updated it

i didn't get into tw3 until a second try. it's a lot less like gta where you get to go on murder sprees and a lot more like a railroaded story. don't do too many optional quests or you'll burn out. there's enough content you can do like 3-5 side quests for every main quest. i'd recommend doing 0 or 1 of the most interesting side quests per main quest you do.

the story is good enough that it papers over all the shitty combat, inventory, and itemization system.

shitty combat, inventory, and itemization system.

As long as the combat isnt frustrating ill be fine. Theres probably nothing they could do that i haven't seen before, so meh

The inventory has become a problem i never expected in games. I cold Turkey quit re5 because of it, rdr2's was out of this world stupid and theres 1 more notable example that i cant recall right now.

I find it quite odd that so many new games have such deep flaws

You should be playing the original Deus Ex in a time like this.

[–] • 0 pt

finished it about a year ago. i've been meaning to do a second playthrough, then play the modded version that updates the graphics (just to see what they did with it), then play some of the popular mods

The original Deus Ex was great. Story was fantastic. Graphics definitely didn't age well though.

The latest one has a story that parallels with current events, how the elites are able to split society. The game wasn't finished, ironically due to 2016 events and forward, when everything started to go woke exponentially. I guess they released it before it was too late.

RDR2 sucked. I bought a hard copy (with a new ps4), played for an hour, maybe. Never played it again.

I tried to get into Witcher a few times and couldn't. I don't think its a bad game, but it wasn't for me.

To be fair, I rarely get into games as much as I did in my teens, and I try to take that into account when I play these games. Which is how I came to the conclusion that there are clearly addicts out there, and there are people who have no choice but to say they like games, because that's all their life will ever be.

Good point. I wanted to like these games. I wish I could enjoy them like I used too. How much of that is getting older and how much of that is the games being shit?

How much of that is getting older and how much of that is the games being shit?

I think the extent of age's effect, is that children are not only experiencing the game for the first time, but everything else. Not sure thst can be done as an adult, which is why i try to channel my inner child sometimes when playing.

But some of these games are just shit. Rdr2.... How does it have all those problems? I made a post in this subpoal about it. Half these new games don't even seem finished. Hell, dark souls seems like an experimental, unfinished game with random bullshit everywhere. Random characters, enemies, environments, generic armor, blah! That game just wastes the player's time, then people say it's hard. Binding of Isaac sucked

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. It's pretty much my gold standard for games made in the past 10 years. Not that the opinion of a bundle of sticks means much.

Witcher 3 was a fun, one and done kind of game.

[–] • 0 pt

some good reassurance as i begin

Game is retard friendly, smash buttons to victory.

lol i'll expect few challenges then. I guess that's fine too; something I can just relax to. Which is good because serious sam tormental is nearing completion (rogue like), and I'm going to get nice and pissed off playing that.

I played RDR (ps3) for the first time a couple of months ago on playstation's game streaming service (free trial) and was really impressed. Decided to buy RDR2 thinking it would be just an updated RDR. I played for about an hour and never played again. The opening sequences in the snow (where everything is so damn slow) was boring, the graphics were amazing, the level of detail was impressive, but it just didn't grab me like I thought it would. I bought Spiderman GOTYE the same day and I tell you what that's a damn good game, that one did grab me.

Hmmm. I should try a new spiderman game. The last one i played was in the ps1. There were a couple of snes games that were good. Some were really hard though, especially the xmen hybrid games.

[–] • 0 pt

Oh man, those were hard, Arcade's revenge? Lordamercy.

I was totally against buying anything Marvel, but it was Christmas and I bought my youngest a PS4 pro and the spiderman game, which obviously means I opened both and played through all of spiderman before I had to box it up and wrap. Was honestly surprised at the quality of the game. Then I seen that it was made by the same people that did Ratchet and Clank (another gem, even if children were the target audience, still a well made game) so I figured it can't be that bad. I was right. The web slinging through town is very satisfying. The combat is well thought out; it allows you to choose how stealthy or not stealthy you approach each situation. The gadgets are cool and useful. The voice acting is A+. It's just a flat out good game. If you are planning to pick it up buy the newer Miles Morales one because it actually comes with the original spiderman that I'm talking about, so you'd technically get 2 games.

Arcades revenge, yes. THat game was haaaard! i remember thinking how cool it was that you actually got to use each superhero's powers special tailored levels. Still too hard, and I recall glitches galore. I don't think me or my older brother could even beat it with cheats.

There was a spiderman game with a kingpin and it gave you a camera to take pics in the game. I may or may not have beaten that game.

I think there was another xmen game that played quite differently and another spiderman game. Pretty good for the most part.

Awe man, speaking of old games, there was a game called master of monsters for sega genesis that I loved. I was just a kid, but I'm pretty sure some of the levels were either impossible or required perfect optimization right away.

Also, rdr2 only gets worse. Sure the graphics do look good but im fine with pixelated graphics as well

I just wish they'd do a remaster of Oblivion.

[–] • 0 pt

I don't really understand the trend with these remasters. don't these games have mods? And every is always looking forward to the "upgraded" graphics, and there are people out there obsessed with ultra hi res mods... just DL those

[–] [deleted] • 0 pt

I do know what you mean. I've given several games a try, after seeing how much they were being raved about online, only to find them Meh, at best, and fucking stupid as shit, at worst.

That Death Stranding... I have no idea what the fuck that game was about. A decent game could be made of just the delivery portion of the game, but the whole story and constant unstoppable cut-scenes, literally some lasting like 10 minutes, I wanted to kick the screen in! Let me just play the fucking game! I couldn't care less about this mumbo-jumbo bullshit backstory and Eastern philosophy! The game is set in America, but it's like you're supposed to have read a fucking book on some Japanese religious beliefs before beginning, and every fucking character had the stupidest fucking names, like they were picked by a 12 year old. DeadMan, DieHardMan, seriously? Retarded bullshit.

Someone should just make a delivery game where you're in difficult terrain, and your packages can be damaged if you do not take good care, and you get a rating based on the size, weight, and condition of the shipments at delivery. THAT'S the fucking core of that game, and yet you're supposed to slog thru this fucking retarded story line and dumb fucking characters, and understand fuck-all of whatever the shit they're talking about. Just let me make my next fucking delivery, upgrade my equipment, and get off my fucking screen!

topkek!

I believe that. i do not understand how some of these games are getting so muc praise. maybe it's a vocal minority and then others just jump on the band wagon? maybe it's not even that many?

The game actively let's you choose to support high fantasy races or not, to support or betray witches or not, it will try to make you feel bad sometimes but those fantasy elves, dwarves and witches are all white, only in one dlc for a few characters do you find non whites who are turkic proxies, the show is pozzed but the game is solid, lefties pretend this is all a proxy for racism or some shit but honestly I'm pretty sure it's just high fantasy that takes itself seriously and in such a reality as the setting the fantasy races having animosity with humans makes sense but so too does the human rejection of these people, it's less nigger race theory and more gray than the situation in america or australia with natives. the sco'iatel freedom fighters are even terrible racist cunts themselves so the game doesn't demand you pity them for being highwaymen and terrorists.

If I had to make criticism of the game, occasionally they will let characters throw "racism" around when period and ideology wise it doesn't belong, this is rare and is genuinely a drop in the bucket compared to the red dead narrative/gameplay demand for hundreds of dead white men because your nigger friends said so. and my secondary criticism is that the game can have almost as much sex as an HBO series, but essentially the choice is in the player's hands so your indiscretions are up to you, if you want it to be a porn game you can make it that.

I would call it the last great narrative game, the studio had to bulk up and wound up getting pozzed in the process as they hired new staff from outside of Poland, so they've lost the magic now. but the witcher 3 is great.
