>>1859>>1860Same. I also hope they stay true to the books and that there won't be (too much) fan service. I also hope they won't try to milk the franchise to death :/
The only game that I'm actually playing right now is Guild Wars 2 (would recommend) and I adore the game so much. I bought it two years ago, worried what it will be like since it had no trial period, but now it's basically my new "home". What I love the most is that you can't really "fall behind" others, even if you don't play for months. So I don't feel stressed out if I miss a day or two because of work.

The books and games captured this weird funny side of him quite well.
That's the main thing I'm worried about when it comes to the Netflix show. I feel like they can fuck Geralt (and with that the show) up if they can't capture this.
The Netflix produced shows I've seen so far are pretty good tho. But I think it would be their first show with a fantasy theme kinda ?

Currently playing Mass Effect 2 and this'll probably be an unpopular opinion, but I kinda like the first game better, gameplay-wise. Like, you had a map for pretty much everywhere, mods were a lot of fun to use and collect, the radar was permanently visible and there were a lot more talents/powers available. Not to mention the fact that you didn't need to conserve ammo lol. They also switched controls for the power wheels and aiming/fire which really confused me, but that will probably get better as I play.
Story telling, soundtrack/sound mixing, dialogue and graphics have definitely upgraded though and the SR2 is pretty neat…
I actually only discovered Mass Effect last year, so you can imagine all the stuff I was able to look up and spoil. I'm sad about that, but it's still been a really enjoyable experience so far. yes i vaguely know about the ending, but i honestly think that it isn't too bad. it feels realistic, as realistic as a video game can get lol, but i suppose people don't play games for realism
Even so, I guess I'll have to choose ME2 over ME1 simply because you can romance Garrus.
I've heard that Dragon Age is similar, so that series will be next, but there's so many games, I'm not sure where to start.
another unpopular opinion: MEA was actually playable and even enjoyable at times

I started playing OldSchool RuneScape a few months ago.
I'm an oldfag that's been around since the phat days so I'm no stranger to changes in game mechanics and graphics but holy fuck RS3 is literally unplayable for me. It's trying too hard to be some unholy matrimony of WoW and an uguu Korean MMO. I couldn't even get through the tutorial. Even the founders just up and left the company because it isn't the same anymore.
I like OSRS, it's a lot of fun to do all the old quests, and if you compare some really old ones (Hazeel Cult, Clock Tower, Temple of Ikov, usually around the Ardougne area) to the newer ones with updated game mechanics and graphics it's really nice to see how the game's been progressing over the years, back when quests weren't written by idiots and new content wasn't just endless QoL updates. I'm kind of warming up to Zeah now but it feels so lazy, very little content stretched as far apart as possible to make the area look bigger.
I just wish they had more quests and lore, and that the place wasn't overrun with retarded little kiddies. I also miss the days before the GE, though I understand the need for it.

I read a bunch of people online complaining about it because the quests are a little repetitive and while they're really not as good as origins, they're still fun.
It's a good game, I enjoyed it a lot and spent over 300 hours on it (and still didn't fully explore the desert areas because FUCK they're like a fucking maze)
>>1877Just play Dragon Age Origins. If you like it, play DA II (I didn't because the gameplay was too action-focused) then Inquisition.
I'm jealous that you can play ME, I used to watch my boyfriend play it because I can't into FPS for shit (was the same with half life) but we broke up before he could play ME3.

I should give it a try
No. 1883
>>1882You can skip it completely. Inquisition isn't even like origins, you can only romance one person. (On origins you could literally date everyone and there was even a bisexual elf who fucked you the mine you said "hello")
The gameplay is like an RPG, but you can choose between action and tactical modes, except for DA2 that afaik doesn't have a tactical mode.
The different races and classes are a lot of fun, pick a mage on DAO and get ready for a wild ride
No. 1884
>>1883Adding to this - On origins and inquisition, you can befriend people (though inquisition got rid of the gifting system, that was a lot of fun) but to romance them you need to choose romancey dialog options, which you can just not do.
The fights are fun, on tactical mode the game is paused and you choose actions for your party that they'll perform once you unpause it. You can select actions for them to perform automatically as well (such as "drink healing potion when health under 25%") and play it action mode.
The lore is pretty nice, as are the million side quests (that often add to the lore)

I'm only playing Japanese video games because it seems Western games are only on consoles I don't own and I can't play anything with my laptop. Right now I'm playing Fire Emblem Fates, I'm almost done with the Revelation DLC but I really don't like it as much as the Birthright and Conquest routes because of the maps. I have a bunch of games I never finished or never even played, it'll keep me busy during the summer holidays. I'll focus on Pokémon Sun next. Not directly related but goddamn, the FE fanbase is absolute shit. I never got to play the games before Awakening because I was young and couldn't buy the games I wanted and I didn't have a GBA at the time, not because I want to fuck Tharja or something.
>>1853Etrian Odyssey seems interesting, especially because it's cheap on the nintendo eshop, but at the same time I'm not sure I'll like it because I've had issues with Persona Q and I've been told it's basically Etrian Odyssay with Persona 3 and 4 characters.
>>1861I likes DR1 a lot even though I've seen a bunch of spoilers before playing it, but I'm halfway through the second game and I really don't like it as much, I'm not attached to the characters as much and the humor is a bit to over the top for me this time. I'm hesitating getting V3 later, for once I've never seen spoilers on this game.
Also:

Apparently DONTNOD is planning o making a LiS 2 soon, i am seriously excited to see where they'll go with it, it'd be interesting to change the time mechanics for another power and change the characters up a little.
The ending to the first, i think, really closed the story off Max rather well (eventhough it was a shit ending), so i'd hope to see new characters.
>>1872Oh man, same about Guild Wars 2. Started a week ago and i'm hooked. If you'd told me i'd be considering buying an expansion for a mmo i'd never had believed you, but it is seriously such an enjoyable online game. I am currently trying to find a guild because i am a ranger (not bearbow tho kek) and i read in the subreddit that i am doomed if i try to do anything with PUGs so r.i.p.
The community seems pretty great and the game system is very fair for all players with level scalling and not overly P2W.
>>1885 P5 is absoultely amazing, but it really requieres a lot of time, i'm still in the futaba dungeon because i've not been able to play much recently.
It controls very smoothly, the music is absolutely fantastic and the characters are trope-y but loveable. The only thing that bothers me is morgana constant whining about going to sleep for the most trivial things i swear to god that fucking cat.
>>1880I liked it, mostly for the characters, didn't really like the gameplay too much tbh.
Can't wait to play the new one, if it's set in tevinter i hope it returns to a more darker style. Inquisition felt too "goody two shoes" for my taste. I just wanted to be a dictator blood mage that led the inquistion to be an evil force god damn it.
I also hope they make the worlds smaller, but more important to the story and learn from the many mistakes of MEA. also that they bring Zevran, Sten and Fenris back in actual cameos. Especially Zevran, waht they did to him on inquistion is inexcusable.
For Mass Effect, you could try setting it on narrative mode, it's very easy as a shooter in that difficulty (especially 2 and 3, 1 is just a little clunky). ME3 has a mode where the enemies are basically paper so you can get right through the story, but most of that story is told on never on sale DLCs which sucks ass.

Chloe and Max got to have a proper kiss and
Nathan got a minor redemption arc, even if he was dead by the time it happened lmao). definitely curious about how they'll change the mechanics up to keep the game exciting, but i'm more intrigued by them having an entirely new set of characters. obviously it makes sense, but i'm gonna really miss some of the old characters; I just hope they newer ones aren't as meme-y and cliche as some of the minor characters in the last game.

Out of all of them Nathan was my favourite character and i would have loved a bigger expansion of his personality and backstory. It was very tragic how everyone around him used him and it absolutely destroyed him. I felt pity for him as soon as everything was unraveled. Finding out what his dad did or what a certain professor used him for, all the while he did it because he had no direction in life, just crushed me. I really would have hoped that maybe Max could've become closer to him, so he could have a friend who was not looking for anything other more than friendship with him, someone who he could rely on.
He is really a great character, not bad, not great, just fucked up because of his enviorment.

I'll definitely try it one day though, I just don't know when.
As for Strange Journey, I think what some people found off-putting was that the press turn mechanism was replaced by something else that has to do with your party members' alignments to deal extra damage to your enemy, but I'm not sure anymore. I only played it for 2min to see if my cartridge worked so I can't say for sure if that's the case.

>>1894Strange Journey is difficult for a JRPG but it's a lot like the old-school SMT games with upgrades that make it less frustrating, like having a base and dungeon maps. Some people were really put off by the first-person layout but every other game pre-IV is like that too (including Nocturne, it's available as a bonus when you beat the game).
>>1891I think you should try SJ or Nocturne, the stories aren't linear but I like how different their atmospheres are compared to other JRPGs. Instead of it being about camaraderie and adventure there's a feeling of the protaganist being trapped alone in these bizarre worlds where everyone has a hidden agenda. If you haven't played it yet Digital Devil Saga is also a good not really SMT but fairly similar game.

The gameplay is fairly simple because there's no press turn but you have to be careful with your demons, they do what they want sometimes depending on their personalities so you either let them do what they want, give them instructions during battles and hope for the best, or you use items on them to change their personalities. The story is a bit over the top but that's part of the fun, I like it a lot. I'm expected Hitomi to be the boring female sidekick but I love her as much as I like Nemissa. You explore the dungeons in 1st person view and everything is pretty fast-paced, exploring dungeons legit made me dizzy sometimes. By the way, I've bee told that playing at the casino grants you a bunch of OP weapons but I'm so shit at the mini games that I never got any of these weapons.

Anyone else enjoying Zelda BOTW? It's so huge. I'm 130 hours into it and I'm still discovering new areas. My only complaint is a lack of a real temple. The Shrines and the Divine Beasts are neat but a classic temple would have made this game perfect. Maybe with DLC.

>>1904I think Andromeda got way too much hate for its poor characterization but like I just played ME1 for the first time in ages and it feels so much like Andromeda story wise, clearly both the games were building up to bigger things and I think too many people compared MEA to the original trilogy as a whole and that's not really fair.
Personally I love Andromeda, it was amazingly fun, I'm on my third play-through but I'm waiting for the update where you can customize your character more before I play for a 4th time.

>>1905I tend to play really long games and i am a bit of a completionist, so depending on the game… maybe around 60+ hours for rpgs and around 80+ hours for JRPGs.
I tend to play around 2-6 hours a day, unless i have to study, so it takes me a while to beat any game. Especially now that i am supposed to be a "responsable adult".
I don't know if it's because i am getting old but games also don't hold my focus as much anymore, i tend to get bored if i play more than a few hours, or get overwhelmed and stop playing if they are too long.
(>started playing witcher 3, 120 hours and still not out of skellige because completionist shit, never touched it again because i was burned out.
>Started yakuza 5, 80+ hours, still on haruka arch, stopped playing because overwhelmed. >Persona 5, futaba dungo, got burned out and never touched it again eventhough i want to play it, but just can't find any kind of motivation to do so.

>>1899I enjoyed BOTW a lot the first ~50 hours. I kinda grew more and more disappointed after that, because the game feels so empty and way too easy (the divine beasts especially). There's not much besides puzzles and while they're fun, the story and quests are so lacking. There's only a handful of quests that were satisfying/memorable/hard, all stables and villages pretty much have the same NPCs/meaningless quests, you're alone most of the time (as opposed to having midna or navi), etc. I'm really sad about it.
I wish the quests were more like other open worlds' (Witcher, DA, Bethesda etc), where you're more invested because of the story and stakes. Or even just more like previous zelda's quests. Now it's almost only "go get this / do this because you have to". It desperately needs an after-game too. But still totally worth playing. Hopefully the next one will be a real 10.

Anyways, anon is right about BB's play style. You've got to be quick and aggressive. But once you get the timing down for parries and visceral attacks you'll have a much easier time going through.
For the first boss are you talking about Gascoigne or Cleric Beast? Both can be parried, you just have to shoot them before they attack. Watch closely a few times for their attack pattern and you'll get it. Cleric Beast is also weak against fire so if you have fire paper or some molotovs you can use them. As a bonus, you can even summon Gascoigne to help you in the fight against Cleric Beast with an Old Hunter's Bell.
For the most part you can get through with good timing, knowing weaknesses of the mobs, and wearing the right gear. But you will die, a lot and often. It's just part of FromSoftware's thing, all their games are fucking hard. I think the visuals alone are worth it though.

The maps are mostly like in DAO, but a bit big (from what I've seen) and the quest often tie into each other (like skyrim, I guess, eg. help person a in town a, later go to town b and person b happens to know a and offers you a quest/dialog etc). I guess it could be compared to DAO but it looks way more story and lore heavy, with a shit ton of details.
It's one of those "heavy" rpgs tbh, but I'd really recommend it if your into exploring and reading.

>>1982D:OS is nothing like dragon age or skyrim. Combat is strategic and turn based and the enemies don't respawn. The game is split between acts and each act has a large map that you can explore however you want, unless higher lvl enemies kill you, although most times you can get around them if you're smart enough.
You can solve every quest in different ways and there are no quests like "help x npc" or "gather x ingredients". Some side quests are connected to the main quests and some aren't. So i guess depth-wise you could compare it more to the witcher 3. (but it's still much more complex because you have multiple, potentially custom characters and the witcher only has one)
Also, everything happens in text. There are no cinematics. Don't play it if you don't like reading.
Sorry if you already know all that, but since you only mentioned skyrim and dragon age instead of other rpgs with many more similarities i feel like you don't have a lot of experience in the genre.

>>1984>>1985Thank you guys!
Story heavy, lore heavy and very text heavy RPGs are some of my favorites so i think i will pick it up. Kinda assumed it would have MMO-ish quests thrown around a big empty map since it has the ability to play with people(afaik) and that's what scared me from picking it up.
>since you only mentioned skyrim and dragon age instead of other rpgs with many more similarities i feel like you don't have a lot of experience in the genre.I do actually! it's my favorite genre. I just compared it to those because the screenshots i saw reminded me a lot of DA:O, and used Skyrim as an example because it has that kind of MMOish very detached quest feel to it which i don't particularly enjoy, so i knew if to stay clear of it kek.

I bought Transistor two days ago as an app (bc it's cheaper and i have a shit-tier pc) and I didn't expect it to be so good.
Art, soundtrack, gameplay, plot; I really can't find anything bad about it. Okay well, it crashes all the time during saves, probably because it's a mobile port, but it still saves so I can go right back without losing much progress.
I went back and bought Bastion and even though it's quite charming, I still enjoy Transistor more. I'll probably pick up both soundtracks as well.
transistor's ending fucks me up so badly though, but that might be because i'm depressed
There are some amazing mobile games out there, even if some are just ports. They tend to be hard to find unless they get featured or if you're following the devs because they're pretty expensive as apps go. It's obviously better to buy the game on steam if it's available though, not just for performance reasons, but because devs are just more likely to update the 'main' version of the game than the mobile version.

There were tons of videos and posts out there with kids insisting their dogs could breed by following a list of random tips like only feeding them water and dry food. Some videos even showed very small puppies, supporting this rumor, but that was just Action Replay at work that enabled shrinking a dog's original size.
To this day, I wonder why so many 8 to 10-year-old kids all over the internet stubbornly upheld this rumor, hid the fact they used Action Replay to get abnormally small-sized puppies and pretended that breeding was a part of the game while telling everybody that Nintendo is lying to their players about it.

While the games all play great, the eshop and menu design leave a lot to be desired. It's so minimalist it's almost annoying. Also the joy con are super tiny.

So I sat down and actually took a gander at Layers of Fear since it really seemed like a visually interesting 'scary game'
I especially was into it because instead of having an Amnesia / Dead space approach with possible enemies and the threat of death, its got a very theatrical gameplay to it where you pick up clues and get tossed through a maze.
It basically nailed what Uncharted lacked when it comes to a 'movie' gameplay.
It gets you from a to b without making it obvious or restricting gameplay too much.
Im a sucker for the whole 'victorian villa' aesthetic and making it super artsy didnt help my plight, I was super into the constantly shifting halls and rooms.
My graphics settings were all high, runing the game as optimal as it could be (if anyone wants my advance settings just ask) it was a smooth playthrough,
I was griping about the control for sure though, its a VR compatible game so opening/closing drawers or winding up objects would at times be really fucking annoying since on a controller there isnt as much motion available than when you're moving a vr gamepad.
In the end i really enjoyed it and anyone who likes spooky games should deffo give it a look.

Even with open ended games such as Factorio which I love, people generally have some goals and maybe handicaps in mind.
Related to those who enjoy sim games, I suggest maybe looking at Elite Dangerous and becoming a space trucker.

I am playing through FFXV comrades and enjoying it quite a bit eventhough it feels pretty… simple.
I think the concept is kinda shit and the execution is supbar, it feels like a shitty MMO where you cant even play with the same players more than once (which kinda defeats the purpose imo) and it feels slightly like mobile game mechanics implemented on a PS game, but i am still enjoying it quite a bit and looking forward to what they will do with it.
I kinda hoped it would have a story or something rather than being an online arena but maybe it will come later idk
The character creator is so good and enjoyable, though.
Anyone else playing it?

>>2052I play it too and I enjoy it.but I hate myself for it because it's really bad actually.
Like there are so many bugs that makes the gameplay not enjoyable.
E.g the bug when no monsters spawn or the bug when the server is suddenly """down""" while for everyone else it works.
Idk I also think that they could have made it so much better bc the 10 years when Noctis is not there is a plot hole that should be filled.
It also feels weird tha everything is so light outside?? Despite it being super dark when you arrive 10 years later with Noctis.
But idk I feel like Final Fantasy 15 is a huge let down anyways.
I understand the first hype because no one knew how medicore it would be but now that everyone played it I really don't get how people can't see all the plot holes,bad story telling, the fact that missions are all the same etc.
Sorry for my rant lol.
I'm just so disappointed because I can see it's potential especially story wise so it kinda makes me mad that it's not as good as it could be especially after 10 years of working on it.
And the producers just try to but dlc content into it to make everyone forget that the main game sucks lol.

Im obsessed with Gravity Rush. I love the world, the movement system, and the main character.
Every spare moment of the day, I think about the lore, trying to come up with theories that answer unsolved questions.
I started learning how to the lucid dream because I want to fly around with those cloud cities with the characters.
I played the Vita game, then the PS4 game, and nothing else. I have no other games because I don't think anything can compare.
Everytime I think about how I can never get Kat's pre-order white costume (because I didn't know about the games then) I want to cry and scream. I would do so many terrible things for it, and even worse things for a garuantee that a 3rd game will be made. It kills me that the game sold dick and the online photo sharing and treasure hunting server will be shutting down this January after just one year.

>>2053I'm about to do some Necrozma shit, but the game has felt like a chore to play through for me personally, especially from sort of the second half on. When XY came out, I was spent the entire weekend of it's launch deep into the game, beat it, and everything felt great (even with midterms being around that time). I've had Ultra Sun since it came out and I still haven't beaten it yet, even with the extended Thanksgiving holiday weekend off from work because I just haven't been immersed with it. I don't like the change in format (Gyms>Island trials) and I guess I'm not big on plot-heavy Pokemon games? Because the ones that felt much more plot-centered to me when it came to the villainous groups (which are Gen 5 and Gen 7) have been my absolute least favorite to play. I always buy both versions, but for both of those generations I couldn't get through a second playthrough on my 'flex' version for both of those… and I didn't even bother to get White 2.
I would say that I'm finally growing out of Pokemon, but put me back into any Gen 1-4 or Gen 6 game and I can thoroughly enjoy them start to finish. I don't know. Maybe I'm just salty they didn't make a Pokemon Z and shoved the Zygarde stuff into SuMo.
(I'm sorry for the Pokemon rant. I just don't have at irl friends to compare thoughts to because they dropped the series at ~Gen 3. It's one of those series that I really and truly love, and it kills me when I can't get enjoyment out of an installment)

I didn't like gen 6, especially not X and Y. 5, 4, and 2 were my favorites, B2W2 might be my fave games in the series (if not it's either DPP or HGSS), but Sun and Moon have a shittier plot and they spend waaaay too much time on it. I like the trials just as much as gyms and I think it would have been a lot of fun if it weren't for the garbage plot, the hand holding, the unskippable cutscenes every two fucking steps, etc.

Found out you could marry Lumina on the ps2 special edition version, and change your kid's gender to female.
I just feel a bit sorry for Muffy bc she liked my character and called him a "monster" when she found out I married someone else ;-; I've looked at game reviews and apparently she has man troubles for the rest of her life and is crazy envious for never getting married or having kids. I wish they wrote some of these characters a happier ending…
No. 2070
>>2065Not a problem! Everyone has the games they enjoy in the series. I'm a bit of a Francophile I guess, and loved the clothing choices for XY so that helped a lot in making it one of my favorites. I loved HGSS as well, but I loved GSC in general. I liked being able to go to both Johto and Kanto. When RS came out, I was confused as to why you couldn't go back to previous regions (lol) but still enjoyed it nonetheless.
I probably need to go back and play B2W2… I'm pretty sure I transferred my team over to X already so I could restart it and see if it is better another time around. I think one of the things I didn't like about the original BW was the fact you were stuck with just that generation of Pokemon, and not a lot of them really appealed to me at the time. I've grown to like a handful more of them now, so maybe it won't be so bad… but I remember there being a distinct lack of L=A button function for Gen 5 and I think that's what turned me off of it. It's such a small feature, but I've used it on everything since Ruby because I'm guilty of multitasking when playing… which brings me to another gripe with SM/USUM–when you turn that feature on, you can't use your R button to rotate you character when trying on clothes or to easily
trigger the Pokefinder. I legitimately thought I had broken my DS until I switched my settings to see if that was why I couldn't get it to work.
But I definitely agree on your Gen. 7 thoughts–it often felt like a 'baby's first Pokemon game' in its guidance. And god, the cut scenes. I went to Walmart before work to get a copy of Sun when it came out, and it took me almost 30 minutes (the time period I allotted myself so I could play it some/still get to work on time) to get my damn starter. That was a definite turn-off for me.

Ocarina of Time was the first game I ever finished and holds a special place in my heart. I’m a poorfag so most of my exposure to games is through my friends and their consoles, so I’ve played a lot of games but don’t get the chance to really sit through them often. I like stuff like Portal and Life is Strange, also Fallout 4 And Dying Light were super fun (I did get to at least watch the rest of DL to the end, was so good). On my iPhone I play Fallout Shelter, Oxenfree, Limbo and sometimes I’ll drop in on Line Play to check on my avatar. Other games I’ve played in the past and liked were Osu!, GTA5, and Minecraft. Fuck, I’ve played a lot of games, I just can’t recall any of them now that I want to list them of course.
>online or sp
Except for my Nintendo 3DSXL I don’t own a console, I have a laptop but I just got it and know fuck all about online gaming. When I was a preteen I spent all day on Runescape, then Gaia, then I took a hiatus from computers for about 5 years.
>what are you playing on pc/console/mobile
I mostly play Fallout Shelter and Oxenfree on my phone at work, but I want to get into something fun that I can play online at home and hopefully meet some cool people to play with. I’m sick of gaming solo but all my friends are console gamers and don’t give two fucks about app or online games.

Anyone else finished LiS Before the Storm? Did you like it?
Personally I didn't like how much the story was focused on Rachel rather than Chloe, and the final choice was way too easy compared to the first one's. Like, of course the right thing to do is to avoid telling R the truth.
Literally everyone, including Rachel's bio mom, thought it was the only good choice.
By telling her the truth you're only destroying her and her family, and given how little time she's got left it's not fair.

I'm always making unpopular choices (Bae over Bay) and I told her the truth. Personally, I value truth very much and would rather know it, even painful and destructive. That's what I told William, too. And James crossed a line, it wasn't just to protect Rachel imho, he acted out of grudge and possessivness, knew what a person Damon was and what could he do to Sera… No, in my opinion letting such a person play a perfect papa was fucked up. Rachel deserved to know.
I'm just sad though I didn't manage to have Sera appear in the beach scene.
Also, the Dark Room post-creds scene fucked me up, I actually cried lol. Don't judge me. I'm very into those games, and after what we've been through with Rachel and Chloe, it's heartbreaking to realize what happened later… Everything became so much more real and painful.

Of course, I love the Silent Hill series, the SH2 is my favorite too out of the series.
Did you also play any of the Fatal Frame games? I'm thirsty for a good horror survival game so please list any that recently came out and that you liked.
To add From Soft, the team behind the Soulsborne games are apparently working on the sequel for Kuon which should also be a spooky survival horror so I'm looking forward to that. Otherwise, I really don't know any recent or upcoming games that would fit the criteria.

I paid quite a bit of money to get my copy of Haunting Ground and I really hated how helpless the main protag was. The story was also really gross (i dont want to spoil it for anyone who wants to play.)

>>2104Rule of Rose was indeed stunning when it came out. I remember being hyped for the game but I couldn't get it due to the issues you mentioned, that it was sexual in nature, spoiler alert:
admittedly there are strong implications that Hoffman abused Clara and Diana so I had to jailbreak my PS2 to play the pirated copy. I managed to buy all other games but I regret not having this one because it apparently had the music sheet.
RoR's OST is so well done. I still listen to it occasionally and I like to play some tracks on my piano. And it was also one of the rare games that made my heavily cry in the end.
True, the gameplay was clunky and really frustrating at time. Regardless, I've spent countless hours discussing the lore on certain sites before there were wikis.
Fuck, I just realized the game was released more than ten years ago.
And you're right regarding the gruesome story in Haunting Ground. Moreover, I disliked the oversexualized appearance and unrealistic physics with Fiona's boobs. What really got me was the setting of the Belli castle and the well-designed stalkers and Hewie ♥
There aren't that many survival games in the truest sense so I play what I can get. I mean, I do like Evil Within 1 & 2 and Resident Evil VII was all right, but despite being labeled survival horror they never gave me that feeling of absolute terror like the other ones did.

Nice to see fatal frame fans here. It's my most beloved series.
>>2106Definitely agree on this. It had potential but it didn't feel like fatal frame at all. It just felt stripped of everything that made fatal frame good and just focused on cute girls. Not to mention nintendo flubbed the release by making it digital only.
Has anyone played Mask of the lunar eclipse. It was good but the controls and over the shoulder camera angles took away from the scary factor for me.
I did like the rituals and lore though. I feel like this is where the series died. Fatal frame had a formula that worked for it and kept getting better from 1 to 3 but they changed it too much.
Honestly, I really wish horror would go back to focusing more on atmosphere like the ps1 to 2 era. I'm talking fixed camera angles, atmospheric music and actually planned out backdrops. Now most horror is just dark/gorey without any heart in it. Also tired of being thrown into fps style gameplay.
No. 2108
>>2103I haven't played anything past Fatal Frame 3 aside from Spirit Camera, so I don't really know how the others are. But Spirit Camera, while in the Fatal Frame family, was so bad and it was only about a 3 hour game. It didn't have the charms of the first three and the AR system could have been used so much better. I'm so glad that there are other Fatal Frame fans here, though.
I haven't gotten around to playing Haunting Ground or Rule of Rose, though. I do have the DreadOut games, which are trying to be like Fatal Frame and Siren, but I heard they weren't so good and the VA work is awful. I'm honestly more of a horror VN kinda person, though, since I played the hell out of Sound of Drop and DDLC and I'm playing through Higurashi.

Disgaea is so fun. I've got 1 and 2 for PS2 and PC and I'm waiting for 5 to come out on PC. Eventually I'll get the rest of the games. I'm also super excited for the re-release of 1 for the PS4 because of all the limited edition bundle merch.

Now I'm seeing Disgaea 1 Complete coming to Switch and I'm trying to figure out if it's worth a third purchase

They were like wut and showed me Ape Escape 2 instead. I bought it with my meager earnings and my sister was disappointed that it wasn't Ape Escape 1 and so it's pretty much untouched lmao

>>2004Maplestory 2 is coming out in a few days to closed beta. Not sure when open release is, but I assume shortly after beta. It's pretty cute. lots of character customization. The demographic for the game seems to be mostly people in their 20s and 30s (OG players from old school MS1). So I'm looking forward to the community for this game. MS1 has died down a lot. Nobody really parties or socializes anymore due to the direction the game took in terms of leveling. MS2 is definitely going to be a different approach. I'm super excited. Plus Maplestory is coming to mobile sometime. It'll be better than Pocket Maplestory (that game was absolute shit). Its great for on the go and there's better character customization in it too, as well as better UI and controls.

>>2172Hey, nice to see someone else enjoying DS. DS3 is my least favorite in the series but the PvP is decent. If you ever feel like playing together, please let me know!
Though, I haven't played DS3 in a while. Also, if you enjoy being a sorcerer, you're going to love it in DS and even DS2(soul memory is a pain though) because there are more sorceries and staves and you can diversify your magic build a lot more.

>>2088I'm this anon and I finally got myself a PS4 for the sole purpose of playing Bloodborne. Since I love the DS series, I thought of trying out Bloodborne and I'm so glad I did! The game is absolutely fantastic, from the gameplay, the characters, the lore, OST, everything!
You're set in a Lovecraftian world, dark and grim, with a Victorian England architecture and wardrobe, where you play as a hunter against beasts and alike.
You have a limited choice of weapons but they(trick weapons) can also be transformed rendering them usually a bit different and more powerful, thus diversifying the combat.
What I particularly like about this game and what makes it different from the DS series is that you have to be aggressive. For example, if an enemy hits you, you can regain the health shortly after by hitting back. There are only two shields in the entire game, and both aren't that much used from my pvp experience, instead, you're most likely to use a firearm to parry in a fight. This makes the combat fast paced and always has you on your toes which is unlike the DS games where you can tank through some bosses, hit and shield hit and roll etc. However, just like any other soulsborne game, you have to learn the boss's moves and its weak spots.
The only downside to this game is that there are way fewer weapons in this game and you can't have that many different builds.
There are a whole lot of similarities to other dark souls games when it comes to PvP, you can beckon other players to help you, you can invade them and you can co-op. There are also dungeons where you can grind to get more items and echoes(souls) and there are even lore tidbits and unique bosses in there, tbh I found the dungeons to be tedious, you will feel that way too if you have to grind for a long time to get a particular gem.
The only thing that I hate about playing online is that you have to have the PSN subscription.

>>2177I unironically think DS2:SotFS is the best game in the entire series. The base game wouldn't do much for me but the dlcs made it into a great adventure. Majula alone is my comfort go-to zone and what I love about DS2 is that you have the ability to have a satisfying ending, different from other DS games.
I also prefer DS2 over DS3 because it feels like there are tons of different and varied places as opposed to DS3 with its rather a greyscale environment (the exception being Irithyll and Archdragon peak, my fav locations incidentally).
I like DS3 too, even though I felt that the people working on it were desperate for inspiration and kind of lacking in it, the gameplay was linear as opposed to DS2 where you can stretch into different areas and imo you have more freedom in choosing where and when you want to go somewhere. There's that exploration element that DS3 doesn't have.
What I prefer in DS3 is that the game progression/difficulty level is well made but that's precisely because it's so linear. Regardless, I thoroughly enjoyed some boss fights in it like the Dancer of the Boreal Valley, Pontiff Sulyvahn, and the Twin Princes. Btw Ashes of Ariandel was the worst dlc in the entire soulsborne series and the final boss of that dlc was a huge dissapointment. I regretted preordering the season pass because I didn't feel it was worth the money. And I much preferred the Painted World of Ariamis despite the graphics being outdated.
Another thing that I'm sure a lot of people will disagree, is the OST. While I did like a couple of tracks that Yuka Kitamura did for the previous soulsborne series, I dislike her work on DS3. Her tracks are too 'epic' with almost every track having some cringy vocals(no lyrics) therefore all of the tracks sound alike. DS1, DS2 and Bloodborne tracks all have more unique tracks that suit the boss or the location.
I really don't get the hate for DS2. The only fault I find in it is the soul memory, I have no idea who in FS thought that was a good idea.

and the buttons
there was so much crust just everywhere
It was so satisfying to just throw everything in the sink and wash it
The console was less interesting, but I found out the cd reader head literally just floats there on like three pegs, but it's not kept down by anything except one ribbon cable
I just blasted it with canned air (lots of dust!), took the buttons off the cover, and washed the top cover in the sink with dish soap
anything extra I got with magic eraser
there are some springs I didn't take out though, so I made sure to super dry it before putting it back together. It sounds dumb, but I flick it in the air to get water out, tap it against my leg, then tap it against the counter on a paper towel. After I'm sure I got all the water, I take a hair dryer to it, just to be double sure.
I did the same with the controller.
>ps2 liteI love mine! ps2 lites are great. Does your tv have non-hdmi hookups? Composite or component? I bought an official component cable yearrrss ago, but they've gone up in price.

It looks like there's also hdmi converters, but I don't know if they're any good or not tbh
I have plans to hook up my PS1 and Genesis to my old box tv because I don't really like the look of these old games on hdtvs and the curse of nostalgia
the gamer community nitpicks EVERYTHING in terms of quality. For the ps2, it's literally aesthetics, since I think it's ps1 games that have issues with newer tvs (which I'm testing today), due to the 240p quality signal might be too low for these tvs.

Thankfully the box sees everything fine, but the sound is hummy and there's some flicker. I ordered new AV cables for it.
My PS2 slim doesn't have any of these issues, thankfully. I can play that shit everywhere. The main reason I wanted an OG PS was for nostalgia and to play a few games that my model of the PS2 slim reportedly can't play.

So I'm really want to get my own Nintendo Switch, I've been co-using another Switch for a while now to play BOTW and other stuff but the selfish person I am, I thought that I should finally invest in my own one so I can play stuff in peace.
BUT there is one thing that kind of "worries" me and this is the fact that I don't really know how much it will affect my save data of all the games I have played so far and do all the DLCs move with my account to a new switch?
Does anybody here have some experiences with this? I have read several threads and official Nintendo sites about this and - I'm still not 100% convinced that I can move everything smoothly?
And for the last thing: When I move my account, with all the content that has been downloaded with it so far (games and DLCs etc.), are they also gone from the original Switch where they has been purchased from?

I recently replayed it and even though the pacing is incredibly off, basically running Charters 9-14 through in less than five hours, I still found myself liking it just as much as I did back in 2015.

It’s by no means a perfect game, but the internet shits on it so much they forget it’s humongously enjoyable and the characters are well-developed, despite poor storytelling, awkward romantic interest choices and suspension of belief more often than someone in church says amen.

I don't know whether to get Dark Souls Remastered or not.
I have dark souls 2 and 3 in my steam library and Bloodborne in my playstation library. I only played DS PtD pirated and that was two years after it was released, so I was hoping to get in with the recent remaster on the launch and the revived userbase.
But now there are hackers going rampant so my main reason for buying this are iffy with lots of negative reviews.
If I had the 20$ discount, I would have bought it pronto but giving 40$ for a patch seems like throwing away money and I'd much rather buy Kingdom Come in that case and buy the remaster later on sale or from a key shop.

Can I rage about Her Interactive?
I grew up playing the Nancy Drew series, after reading the books as a little kid. They were so fun. The puzzles felt unique and challenging, the characters compelling and they managed to instill a scary/mysterious feeling without great graphics or triple A gameplay.
They were supposed to come out with Midnight in Salem..three years ago, I think? The reason they haven't is because some dumb bitch (Penny Milken) took over Her Interactive, fired everyone (including Nancy's voice actress) and hired a new team so she could push her STEM-based crap that no one wanted.
The "games" they've made since she's taken over are shit. I'm all for empowering girls with STEM, but Nancy Drew was ALREADY a strong female character and quite empowering to young women. There could have been ways to do what she wanted to do without pissing off longtime fans, firing the crew, killing their main franchise, etc. The products they produce now are soulless and boring, no wonder they're hemmoraging money. Modern girls aren't at all interested in their games. And the worst part is, that aforementioned new leader is a straight up cunt about it who can't admit she was wrong. She either lies to fans, talks down to them or has them blocked from their social media for asking questions. She's pushing her shit on an audience that doesn't want it, and it's not even well made, because she's a narcissistic white feminist.

I recently started playing Fortnite and I'm super addicted already. Never cared much about online games, but I tried Far Cry 5‘s multiplayer after finishing the game (I love that one as well btw) and realized that playing with/against others can be fun. Fortnite looked a bit tacky at first and the community can be cringy (annoying little boys screaming into their mics), but I like the gameplay and I also like Epic Games (especially because of Gears of War).
I guess this will keep me occupied for a while. Another game I'm really excited for is Story of Seasons (ex Harvest Moon) for Switch! Finally a reason to get the Switch tbh!

Am I just not good at games?

I'm actually a bit curious about the upcoming smash for some reason? But on the other side I don't really care that much about Mario Tennis or more Splatoon stuff. It's been promoted for so long that I hope that we get to see more stuff that can be exited about like of course animal crossing for example. Or reveal what Retro is working on, some Metroid trailer that is more than just a logo, hell even more about Yoshi? Something that could make people excited about when Smash/Mario Tennis etc. isn't your case.

I just went to visit /v/ and got disappointed by the amount of threads with "gurrrls destroy everything. guurls ruined the video games industry". Also, the hate against strong female protags.
I've been playing video games ever since I was a kid in 90s and I know other girls that like to play vidya without being vocal about it or doing it for attention. I guess what irks me the most is that their reasoning is that women can't have their own interests because everything we do is for attention. Idk why it gets me everytime. I just wonder how many gusy think like that outside of imageboards.
Anyhow, I found this jewel called Sable, and I really liked the art style of it, so I was thinking that some of you may appreciate it as well.
I'm hyped for quite a number of games, which makes me happy because I feared that I lost my love for vidya but Cyberpunk 2077, Sekiro, Death Stranding among others are titles that make me look forward. I wish there were estimated release dates, even if just approximate.
Btw, is getting PS4 Pro worth it if I already own PS4? Is the difference that stark?

>>2264Yeah, it seemed so forced. It didn't feel like Ellie is a lesbian just because she is a lesbian, it felt like they were going out of their way to be like "look at us and how inclusive we are, shocked you real good with lesbians". Couldn't they have made a sweet, natural kissing scene, and not one that felt like pandering to tumblr and neckbeards.
Plus, she doesn't even look like an older Ellie, she looks like a completely different character. They changed her face too much.
No. 2309
>>2308I don't know why everyone(read /v/) is so upset about the kiss. You have all these games that pander to guys with near naked women with no questioning whether it belongs in a game and for once there's like a non porn lesbian couple kissing on the screen with this ridiculous outrage.
So what it they put that lesbian kiss for appearing inclusive? It's not like games never do things to appeal to a certain type of audience.
You don't have to like the game or the change of Ellie's character, I just wish you and the rest would be honest and admit that you don't like non sexualised female characters in your game because if it were two bimbos making out then no one would have complained.

>>2309Personally im above the moon that for once a studio doesnt just do a gay stint for ~charcter development~ but actually kept it part of her. Im more tired of all these overhyped small kisses/interactions between same sex characters (usually background characters not even mains) thats supposed to be so groundbreaking but really mostly just safe pandering. I also dont understand what the fuck people mean by ellie didn't seem/feel gay like what the fuck is she supposed to do roll up as a kid with a leather vest asking if somebody needs help building a cat shelter??
This is an instance where i feel people yell pandering just because its just a gay character and people are so tired of the troons and tumblr culture they forget that not every gay character made is a big money scheme, especially considering Ellie isn't overly sexualised nor did their trailers aim for any real focus on relationship drama besides making an enticing intro to their game.
(If pandering is on the menu hit up Square Enix and life is strange thats so obviously pandering but people keep blowing it up everyones ass for being so deep, real and lgb open yet the moment the DLC with Ellies first kiss came out people lost their shit like how fucking dare Naughty Dog have a downloadable story to venture into some of Ellies past/relationships without burdening you or the main plot compared to literally playing Degrassi: Square enix edition)

I just bought an Xbox one a week ago with a copy of Grand Theft Auto V! I want to use gaming to meet people and make friends, but it's kind of hard finding people to play with. Everyone I already jnow who has an Xbox… doesn't have GTAV, despite the fact that I bought it because when I asked them about the games they like the most, GTAV was the one everyone kept saying they spend the most time playing. I downloaded Life is Strange, which is keeping me a little busy since I never did finish the game the first time I played it, but I'm already getting bored with it. Gaming just isn't as stimulating and entertaining as it used to be or maybe I just need different games? I loved Portal, Limbo, Monument Valley and other puzzle games, mission based games aren't really my thing honestly but I was drawn to GTA because of the online play ability.

I don't think the Switch is replacing the 3ds. "portability" is one of the selling points, but it is nowhere near the same as a ds. I, and probably others, am afraid to take this thing out and about like I would a ds, and if I'm taking it to a friends, I pack it up in a case and take it over. I wouldn't call this "convenient" really, but it is better than lugging over a regular console.

So what did you all think of the fresh cp2077 gameplay?
I loved it, despite the dialogue which was a bit over the top.
>>2361Agree, this is the game I'm really looking forward to. I just wish we knew the release date.
No. 2364
>>2362Yeah the dialogue sounds a bit off, I'm pretty sure it's translated from polish. Maybe I'll just play it with polish voices, I tried it with the witcher 2 and it was surprisingly great
They really nailed the gunfight mechanics and didn't make it feel to rpgey (you can one-shot targets) but I really hope we can use some katanas. The city better be good too
>>2363They spent all their ressources on the Witcher 3 instead, which ended up being an excellent decision

What do you guys think about the Fire Emblem fanarchise? Favourite games?
I recently got into Fates (Conquest/Nohr path). First of all, the strategy aspect of the game is brutal, and I'm playing on Normal mode. I had to reset the game god knows how many times because my units kept falling, the maps were ridiculous. Another thing that had me gasping is that you literally can't grind. How the fuck am I supposed to beat those maps if my units aren't at my desired level? I had to leave out of battle severeal units because the story kept going on and getting more and more hard which lead to them to being underpowered and even outclassed. The only way to possibly grind is to buy DLC maps which I refuse to in order to freaking grind , like, no.
All these downsides led me to chose to play in Phoenix mode (fallen units ressurect with full HP at each turn) which makes me feel like a massive beta but there was no bloody way I could beat this game otherwise, under those conditions.
That's a huge shame because I am a sucker for the aesthetic of Nohr and I prefer the characters and units you get from the Nohr side, specially Effie, Peri and Niles. Also had children with the Butler, kek.
I really hope Birthright is better because I actually enjoy the story of the Nohr/Hoshido war.
No. 2372
>>2371I've only played Awakening and Fates (all routes) so I guess I can't speak about the whole franchise but I think I can help. The best way of getting into Fates is in this order Birthright (Hoshido) ->Conquest (Nohr) ->Revelation (Spoiler). Birthright is easier and you can do some level grinding without the DLC for this. Conquest is brutal even on normal, that's the point of the route, but the maps and missions are way more varied than in Birthright so it's still fun. I bought all the DLCs because they were on sales at some point but I never used them in Conquest, and I managed to do some support grinding by doing battles online with people I met on streetpass.
Revelation is shit with shitty plot twists that make the stories in the other routes even more nonsensical, and the actual really interesting aspect of the story are locked behind DLCs anyway. And the most important part is that the maps in Revelation are full of stupid and annoying gimmicks. The localization is trash too because they tried to hard to make the games fit in the T rating in the USA and we're stuck with the same terrible localization decisions in Europe. I think you shouldn't be ashamed of playing on phoenix mode, keep in mind you can still have a game over in theory (Conquest fucking chapter 10). Do you already have Birthright or are you going to download it later?
tldr; Try to do battles online so you can support grind in Conquest and obtain more rare weapons because they're super useful. Try to unlock all of the children this way so you have more maps where you can gain experience, items, money (especially Arthur's son's map) and OP characters, if you use Mozu make her an archer because Niles, who is best boy of Fates, will be your only bow user for a long time.

>>2380I've been playing Stardew the past couple of weeks, I really enjoyed it, have about 80 hours logged, but im kind of disappointed by the late game stuff and a lot of elements feel like they weren't really thought out. I don't really like the dungeon/combat stuff which I guess isn't a big deal since you don't really have to do it but it felt unnecessary. Being married and having kids in the game is kinda weird too, they just kinda hang around the house and you don't get much interaction with either. I also find it kinda lame that for most of the events you don't have any incentive to go once you've done it the first time because nothing changes.
It's a great game overall and I don't feel like I wasted my time playing it or anything, just feel like a lot of things could be tweaked to make them much better.

Has any other farmer played Night in the Woods and LOVED it?
I know some people laugh at it being a SJW game, but I found it extremely relatable and well-written. I felt like the characters were real people and not just SJW stereotypes for representation. For example, I loved how normal the gay couple was presented. They were just two guys in relationship; each had their own quirks and issues. There was nothing obnoxious ('OMG LOOK AT THOSE PRECIOUS SMALL BEANS!!! SO GAAAAY') about it or the plot revealing that the protagonist is bisexual. I loved the art, the music, the mood of run-down city… Everything felt so real and non-forced to me. I feel like replaying the game on a non-laggy computer. On another note, can anyone recommend something similar? I have already played LiS and even Before the Storm. I heard that Oxenfree might be similar a bit, but I'm put off by the teenage drama (maybe I'm wrong?).
I never was into media featuring anthro animals, but NitW and Bojack Horseman changed that (though I'm not and never will be a furry, kek).
If you know any other media like this, feel free to rec too.
No. 2387
>>2386Thank you, I will check Oxenfree after playing NitW once more. That game is so comfy and perfect for Autumn!
I liked LiS but it took me some time to play it because the forced teenspeak sort of turned me off. I ended up loving the game. Before the Storm was so much weaker though. The writing felt even more cringy than in the original games.
I found the scene with the Shakespeare play where you help your friend and can fuck-up the lines strangely similar to the one in NitW. Maybe that's just a weird coincidence.
I've heard that Kentucky Route Zero is similar in some way to Night in the Woods, but I have not played it yet, so I cannot confirm.

It has been months since I played video games and I feel like getting back into it. I love Pokemon but I never had the opportunity to complete a pokedex. I think I'll try this time by downloading Pokemon Blue and Pokemon Gold on the 3DS as well as the pokebank, completing them and transferring all of my pokemon from all the games in either Pokemon Sun or Pokemon Ultra Moon. Did anyone try this? How long do you think it will take, given that transferring from gen 4 to gen 5 is incredibly annoying?
Obviously after that I'll try to trade online and hatch eggs once that's done.

I will have to start from the scratch because I spent too much money and will not be able to pay rent. This game is amazing, love all the characters and the oldschool art.
>>2391Semi-related… I want to get back into Pokémon too. Do I buy myself a 3DS or a Switch? I am really excited about the Let's Go Eevee game because I could never appreciate the newer games as much as the classic gen. Recently I tried to play Black and White and it did not pull me in… I played like 6 hours and stopped. Idk why.

No. 2396
>>2395I liked Pokemon White and Black 2 but I felt like they were very different from the rest of the series, I don't how to explain why though. But overall it really felt like a soft-reboot.
>I tried to play Black and White and it did not pull me in… I played like 6 hours and stopped. Idk why.I found the start of BW very slow too but after you reach that one city that's kind of like New York it gets better imo. I felt like Pokemon X and Pokemon Sun were more similar to the rest of the series with pokemon from all gens being readily available for you and even just the atmosphere of these games. Playing Sun reminded me of Colosseum because of the 3d models. I think buying a 3DS in general is a good idea if you like nintendo in general because it has a very good catalogue.
>I am really excited about the Let's Go Eevee game because I could never appreciate the newer games as much as the classic genThat's kind of the reverse for me, I played the original game (each version, multiple times) as a kid and Fire Red way too much, I don't think I'll actually buy this one.

>in the last two cases of AA5, the relationship between Athena and Blackquill as well as the plot twists and the motives of the culprit are really similar to the relationship between Lynne and Jowde, as well as the motives and identity of the antagonists. >The antagonists in both games are foreign spies seeking a mysterious part of a meteorite who can use very advanced technology, and their plans are put to an end by a young women who is trying to help get an innocent older man who knows too much out of jail.>Apparently Ghost Trick takes places in the same universe as AA so that makes things even worse in a way.>Overall, Athena is literally just a fusion of Lynne and Edgeworth when it comes to her personality and backstory>They had to recycle the whole Kurain/Fey family feud sub-plot to make AA6. It didn't feel like a sequel so much as a retelling, you just replace Apollo, Nahyuta and the princess whose name I forget with Phoenix, Mia and Maya or Pearl, Morgan and the queen of Khurain have almost the same exact motive and things get predictable super fast>Nahyuta s also just Edgeworth 2.0, instead of being the childhood friend he's the protagonist adoptive brother now! So original>Maya is back! Great but now instead of doing anything interesting with her in the main plot, let's just say she did some vague stuff to train and make her the accused or an indirect victim AGAIN. The DLC case is where you can have her as your assistant and that was really cool>Edgeworth is just there for the fanservice at this point instead of having an actual part in the plot or backstory, unless we're talking about the DLC case>Lamiroir on the verge of revealing everything to her children AGAIN but she doesn't yetPeople were really shitting on AA4 back in the day but at least it tried to change things a bit to make things more exciting and give us new content.
They're probably trying to do this with Apollo leaving at the end of AA6, which wouldn't be so bad if his backstory didn't feel so half-assed and unresolved with the whole Khurain bullshit. I'm aware I seem like I'm complaining but I still liked AA5 and 6, just not as much as the previous games. I feel like AA7 is going to be super predictable now, I wish we had more cases like 6-2 and 6-4 for example, instead less obligatory huge cases that ties everything together. Sorry for the sperging.

And I remember really liking it, but I couldn't tell you any specifics at all lmao
>Apparently Ghost Trick takes places in the same universe as AA so that makes things even worse in a way.Really? I must've forgotten that
I never finished AA6, but yeah I do remember getting bored with more Fey nonsense
DGS is very, very refreshing with all the simplified, but still useful things they've been doing. I feel like at least AA5 was getting bogged down with technology, probably AA6 too but I can't remember

Both my brother and my boyfriend play the game but they're useless and can't leave silver. They play together and say the matchmaking is holding them back and that they should be a higher rank. I've offered to boost them but they refuse because deep inside they know they're shit. I'm on diamond and could probably get master if I wasn't so awkward.

>>2488>>2489I feel like I get different experiences because I play OW on console, and usually don't start voice chat until I hear someone else. (I also usually have to get a drink or so in to reduce the nervousness and don't play comp. Mainly QP or mystery heroes).
I haven't had bad experiences–I usually end up talking to people that are 12-15 and feel bad because I'm, like, potentially twice their age. I ask them to make sure their parents are okay with them talking to someone that much older than them in the future if it is a concern, and try to limit my swearing once I learn their age.
(I've actually had parents message me back and say that their kid asked them, and appreciated me feeling a concern about the age gap and that they were okay with me continuing to play with them. I've also had another tell me that they would rather not and I said that was totally okay and like that they look out for their kid and removed them from my friends list)
I've never been harassed for being female, just confused for being a teenage boy. Are console players just more friendly? Or is it because I don't really like comp and stay out of it? (I play for fun; I don't want to get to a point where I get angry at game.)

Dumb question time:
For those with a Switch, how do you carry it around?
I had a case that had an okay amount of space, but not enough room for both a joycon grip and a pro controller. That wasn't necessarily the deal-breaker, but the black dye in the fabric was leaking into the grips of my joycon grip and the design of my card holder.
I decided to upgrade to a nicer case, something that can hold both a grip and pro controller, plus the other stuff I wanted to keep around (AC adapter, joycon straps, hori stand, game case, amiibo cards). So I bought the big Tomtoc case. I got it in today and noticed that the grip that I use (PowerA) is actually bigger than the regular Nintendo one, and won't fit in the slot unless I shove it in. Cue me cutting and sanding the foam to adjust the slot, and when I finally finish, I realize the lid doesn't close all the way, and if I push it down it pushes on the triggers of the pro controller and the loaded grip.
Just, augh. I realized this is a problem of the case being too short. Everything sticks up too much and the lid isn't deep enough to have a pocket AND accommodate for everything sticking up. I can fix the foam, but I can't fix the case height. :(
tl;dr what do you guys use to carry Switch gear around when you want to play with frands

They're patching in a lot of features before the end of the year like PTT and there's a huge update today for performance.
I haven't run into any severe graphical or gameplay issues, either. I'm just having fun exploring and building with bf and friends. There are quests and events and a lot of flavour stuff, though not particularly deep. As long as you don't expect it to be a polished full fallout game and like survival games you will enjoy it. It's not amazing or groundbreaking or even the best survival game out there but it's entertaining if you like the fallout universe.

I was there when people thought that was going to be a real TES game too.

This game. This game has brought back my hopes of playing games. It’s scenery an detail and over all play is just beautiful. I’ve probably put 50-60 hours into it so far am barely touched the story. I’ve been so wrapped in hunting and bonding with my horses and getting out fits to make Arthur a handsome devil. Best thing is I have something to talk about with guys who I sometimes over hear talking about it. I’ve had it spoiled for me the story, so it hurts to try an finish the game but I’ll get there.

>>2585The story is very basic but it's not bad. I played it a long time ago and it was really hard because it takes way too much time to gain new levels and you can't save your game inside dungeons, no matter how big they are. The system of points assigned to some spells is annoying too if you want to mostly use mages or magic attacks. It's still a very good game, if you like JRPGs in general you'll like this one.
When I say it's hard because you can't save in dungeons, I mean that you have at the end of the game you have to go through a big dungeon, you end up on the map so you can save your game, you then go through the crystal tower which is huge, you have a boss fight with a mandatory death to further the plot so DON'T TURN OFF your DS out of frustration. Then you have to explore the world of darkness with a lot of really strong bosses and then you have the final boss, or final bosses. If you can complete the game and beat the final boss, make sure you can charge the battery of your DS because I nearly lost all of my data since my DS nearly died on me during the last cutscene before the credits.>>2604It's for the DS and the game has been ported to the PSP.

This game had me on such an emotional rollercoaster. I just finished it, and man, what a ride.
At first when I started playing it it was a bit meh. If I had one minor complaint, that would be the controls. Sometimes they can be frustrating. However, the landscapes, the gushing wind, and most importantly the relationship between you and trico make this game awesome. When I started playing I thought it had nothing on Ico or SotC but now I can say that it makes a worthy successor.

btw I love the Sherlock Holmes games too. I procrastinated my entire uni playing them and I even managed to make my non gamer friends get addicted to them.
No. 2624
>>2622All of the Broken Sword games are about solving mysteries, usually murder mysteries. I highly recommend them!
Also Still Life Part 1 (don't bother with Part 2, it's not very good) is a modern day murder mystery that lets you analyse crime scenes and do lots of procedural work. It's a lot of fun.
The Last Express is about solving the mystery of the death of your friend on board the Orient Express in the early 1900s. It has a very unique art style and time structure (the game takes place in real time, so you need to make sure you're in the right place at the right time in order to progress sometimes) that makes it very replayable. It's one of my favourites.
And it's an older game but the first Gabriel Knight game is also a fun murder mystery game set in New Orleans. I'd definitely recommend it.

I loved the drama in the server too, it was pretty low key but fun (he said that she said kind of stuff, or people getting together and breaking up after meeting irl, etc, the little things)

problematic" and might have
triggering content (like the female city elf origin). Still, I hope it gets darker considering what Solas is up to.

Finally bought Spyro Trilogy, Grew up a complete spyro fag as I started out vidya with a Ps1 and Spyro, its been a really chill experience of nostalgia and 'well this feels/looks off', The fact that you can't turn off motion blur and (while this was a problem in the og game too) when you charge sometimes the camera auto focuses somewhere else so you end up charging a completely different direction. the camera itself is super sensitive if you dont have it in active mode and active mode you gotta sometimes fight it kek
I will probably come back to post about it again once im done with it cause I need to see how every crevice of this game turned out, outta sheer autism for my beloved childhood franchise (inb4 sperg over Riptos Rage lmao)

Faeria killed itself.
A great but unknown card game with amazing art.
It used to be f2p but now it's p2p and DLC based.
The number of players is lower and lower. 130 playing atm.
To play it again I'd need 26€ worth of DLC to have all the new 80 cards, and if I were a new player I'd also have to buy the game, which adds 20 bucks.
I can't even tell people to just try it out anymore as it's too much of an investment.
In short, I am sad.
No. 2675
>>2667I've read that Matt's wife is kind of an sjw and has started shit in the past, so some people think she's more to blame than pat's gf. Personally, I think it's mostly Matt's lack of chemistry with Pat and Woolie that led to this.
Everyone seems to have different theories on why they're breaking up. The way people keep mixing up Matt and Pat's names sure isn't helping lol.
No. 2678
>>2667Honestly, Matt was phoning it in for a while in the lps and podcasts while his solo channel had his full attention. Even in his LPs with Woolie he was just not how he used to be so I don't think the blame solely lies with Pat. Plus his gf is the one that vague posted on Twitter about Pat and tried to stir up drama. I'm more inclined to think it was his gf and not Pat's that caused this on top of other reasons. Just watching Matt's channel with her in some makes me uncomfortable with how much she talks over him and sort of ensures he agrees with her. But eh, no one really knows what happened.
I'm so upset about the disbandment because I can't get into any other lper. Tbfp had the only kind of humor I could tolerate. I wish they could've gone out with just the video since it was so graceful but Liam soured the goodbye with his twitter ramblings.

I got my 3DS after I bought my Switch. I think the 3DS s great because it has a HUGE library of games. It's not the newest system BUT as I said, many, many great games with remasters of old classics. At times I use it more than my Switch
The Switch on the other hand doesn't have a that much games but has def some gems that are worth to get the system. I personally loved Breath of The Wild, my biggest reason why I got a Switch. Besides BOTW I loved Bayonetta 1+2, Mario Odyssey and Captain Toad Treasure Tracker (lol). I've only played the Demo but I read a lot about Octopath Traveler and it sounds like something that you could like. (Currently on Sale at the eShop).
Both have a good reasons to be purchased.

>>2686 said, the library is massive and I'm sure you'll find tons of games to keep you occupied. Plus the hacking scene is really great if you're into that.
If I were you, I'd get a good deal on a refurbished 3DS (or 2DS if you don't mind giving up some features to save more money) to get your Nintendo fix. Set aside your money and get the Switch once there are a larger amount of games that catch your eye, it's the hot new system and it isn't going anywhere.

On that note, I just got Let's go, Eevee and while the game has been dumbed down, I like how chill and realistic it got in a way, with pokemons roaming around. I thought I wouldn't like it that much but honestly it's enjoyable.

Posting because I want to hear opinions about Yoko Taro. I was a huuuge fan when Gestalt came out but since Automata I feel kinda conflicted.
Maybe it's because a lot of really unpleasant people flocked to him and project his views on him because of the 2B lewds thing. I'm mostly feeling meh about it because he didn't make any distinction between regular porn art and degrading one, and it's especially sad when you look at 2B's story and the themes of Automata. Another one of his characters was revealed recently to have been abused and forced to crossdress as a child- the company in charge released a dakimakura of the character and the popularity got boosted ten times.
I know he has a dark sense of humor, but these things make me a bit sad. Basically I'm butthurt because I take fictional characters seriously and want some respect for them.

>>2709I loved Gestalt. Gotta be honest, Automato was a huge let down, it didn’t have any of the charm the first game had. The characters weren’t a interesting, the world was a bit meh while pretty, and the musical score is so lacking when you listen to the first one. I was really disappointed after I finished my first play through and tbh don’t have the heart to play it again - I know some people will say ‘it gets soo much better later!!’ but entertainment should capture your heart soon into the story, I have a hard time giving entertainment a second chance when they were shitty at the start/first time around

Might seem selfish but that kinda kills the illusion of caring for those characters, him joking he'll put her in any collab, even candy crush if he gets the money doesn't help.
>>2711Glad to see others that feel that way, I really don't want to sound pretentious and I know lots of people loved it because it was their first Taro game.

Drakengard 1 and 2 managed to have quite sensible female designs. I think these designs were changed to be pornier in the rest of Taro's games simply because it would sell better (and of course a horny male design team.) It's a pity.
Check the crazy playable female character in D1 and compare with Zero:

Agreed with you on the designs becoming sluttier and I miss the early drakengard designs, I need to play 2 finally.
Another thing that comes to mind is how a female writer brought up some themes like bro Nier snapping at Yonah under pressure and saying she's a burden, or how Emil feels isolated because of his sexuality and Kaine's internal struggles- but it was "too dark/real" for Yoko.

I understand all this parody of japanese media, sexualizing in almost a ridiculous way some characters. I might sound as I justify Yoko's work too much, it may be, but I carefully thought throught it since I've first known of the series years ago.
Speaking of which, I think first Drakengard is my favourite game, not as much as a game, but as an artwork. It might not be enjoyable gameplaywise, but its repetitiveness in the context, the visuals, music and characters created one of the most grimdark stories I have ever read while I am a huge grimdark slut (please, suggest more good grimdark pieces).
Automata would be my last favourite if Sinoalice didn't exist. I found Automata kind of bland and a void body of what Gestalt/Replicant was. I wish it were more pushed as his previous games were.
Sinoalice is just a badly designed game who lost everything that made the game interesting at the beginning. Stories are so cringe, characters so boring and the feel of it is just a moneygrabbing garbage for japanese men to fap to.

>>2728Style-wise I prefer sinoalice because it's more in the fantasy direction and I like some of the characters but the gameplay is indeed awful and the character designer is a lolicon with very sketchy tastes.
The only reason I'm playing is because I can get all characters I want from the gacha just by playing casually. I was so angry at Yoko when he hyped up the Automata collab by saying he cried while writing it- and then nothing actually happened. I still find Cinderella entertaining and I loved watching people flip their shit at some plot revelations about their pure faves.

>>2728Forgot to say I love the style too, might not be unusual for the era but the western influence and dark colours are nice.
As for grimdark games, I suppose you played Blood Omen from the Legacy of Kain series or Soul Reaver 1? If not, it will seem very edgy on the surface but it touches upon some interesting themes and plays with the player: like at first you feel sorry but eventually you accept you're on top of the food chain as a vampire and become more cruel. Soul Reaver 1 has some top notch voice acting and nice dark boss designs.
Otherwise I guess The Cat Lady, Pathologic, Rule of Rose etc. But some were already mentioned in the thread.

I know I'm pretty late to the party but I just started playing Vermintide 2 and am really enjoying it. It makes me miss WAR: Age of Reckoning (the Warhammer MMO) a lot, which shut down in 2013. Now I'm downloading the private server for WAR just to recapture that nostalgia again, but I know it won't be the same. I wish there were more games for Warhammer's fantasy universe, I couldn't care less about space marines.

I really wanted to like Gris but I ended up hating it. Though, I only played like an hour which is one third of the game.
The game looks beautiful and the OST is nice and that's about it.
The game has no puzzles that aren't obvious and it's just not engaging. I like platformers, I like artsy stuff, I like things that are different but if the game's main selling point is that it looks nice then I just can't bring myself to like it and play it. Everyone online seems to praise and call it a masterpiece. It's just a "game" where you go forward and experience the beauty.

Recently played this and it's absolutely a 10/10 for me. It's from the same guy who did Papers Please, so if you like that one you should definetely check it out. The gameplay is very innovative and extremely fun if you enjoy mystery puzzle solving games (like AA or Professor Layton). The soundtrack is amazing too. Greatly recommend.

>>2783Kh3 opening is trash. Nice to know that farmers agree, at least ppl can be honest here. Say this anywhere else and the crazy stans show up, even on v.
Im pretty much a big fan of kh, I played all the games multiple times, and everyone knows me for being one.And I also shamefully used to listen to skrillex a lot. So ppl are biased thinking the opening is good when it's just utter garbage. Then stans try to use semantics with this that its "future bass" and just like the old simple & clean remix. I don't care what genre or what artist it is, it still sounds like utter garbage and it's not because I hate skrillex either.
If anything, if this was a standalone song skrillex made for an album it would be one of his worst. People are just too stupid to think for themselves and only like the song because it's attached to Kh. No one would give a damn about the song if it werent.
It seems sad too, that leakers have already dropped reviews and many said it won't even meet GOTY qualifications. It's gonna be the same thing that happened with ff15, and kh will just be overhyped. I hope the game itself won't be too bad but I'm not raising my expectations either.

Claire's model is very eh to me. She's beautiful, sure, but she looks like the samefacey instagram models I see everyday on my dash. (The actual model is an instagram model too, so I guess my thoughts were correct…) I liked the previous models better. Even the Revelations 2 one, that got a lot of flack for reasons I can't explain since she looked perfectly attractive. I was hoping to see the original biker outfit, too.
I love Ada's model though. She's exactly how I pictured her, and I love how in my country's dub she sounds more mature and womanly, in line with her femme fatale look (compared to the English dub, where she sounds more like a common girl in her early 20's imo)

>>2811damn that's still a pretty kind review anon. I tried the game out with my friends on proud mode and all it did was make us lol. Insanely easy, just triangle over triangle. Donald would heal you like crazy (I think they over did it with optimizing him) anti form is easy to get and more op than ever, and now you have a 4th person in your party. And everything hits like a truck, I didn't even go magic build which is broken af. And it's a miracle how they made the game cringier with the cutscenes. I played kh1 recently and I can say it got worse now. But what can you say when they wanna fluff up the game and just add scenes instead of adding meaningful content.
How the game started out too was crap. It had less of an impact, and usually in both the main games kh1 &2, at least it felt magical. This one felt rushed, the mini boss is so easy to kill on proud and they just plop you on a goddamn gummi ship and throw you in the world instantly. They started out slow on the old ones, but it felt more organic although kh2s intro took long. The character buildup and the relationships and how you became attached to places, like twilight town and destiny islands. It made it feel like you were a part of the story.
A lot of ppl are actually waking up now to this horseshit, and calling out a bunch of flaws. From characters who didn't have a purpose and was just plopped to sit around, to crappy map designs. People can complain about "but but kh1&2 maps were crap and it's characters!!!" comparatively for its time and how long it took to make, it was pretty well done. They had about over a decade of planning this game out, even tho they may have started production 5 yrs ago, it is inexcusable. They can't use the excuse of filler games in between (that's their own damn fault), they should have prioritized the fans with completing the series properly and putting focus on KH3. Even if it took babysteps with planning. Fans gave them all the time in the world to plan this game out, enough time to raise a fucking child, and now it's just garbo. I played a bit of kh2 fm last night and I have to say I prefer it much better.

it may be because of nostalgia and my younger age that the games seemed better.i realise that they may not be perfect writing wise,but at least the previous games(at least kh1,kh2 and bbs that i have actually played)incorporated oc's,ff and disney characters in their worlds better than whatever the fuck happened in kh3 where
arendelle was basically "oh elsa seems sad" "holy shit she threw us of the mountain lets go up again" TWICE and just watching the movie unfold>>2813i have much more complains about the game i just pointed out the most frustrating parts for me.i actually agree with all of your points anon.
i played the game on easy since i just wanted to get over with it(and because im not that great of a gamer kek)but kh1,even on easy,was a challenge for young me.i didnt die ONCE in the whole game and even the final bosses were a breeze
i also hated how the game started and threw you right in whatever it was supposed to happen(which makes sense in a way)but it would have been done in such a better way than throwing the gang in the gummi ship and randomly making you go through worlds.nothing seemed organic or well made with the plot esp with the disney/pixar worlds.as you said the other games felt magical and this did not
the plot ended up the way it did because they just think of just the next game and not the plot overall.with the end of kh3 they just wanted to put an end to the xehanort saga to lay the path for the next games by raising more questions.

For the curious anons, I played the demo on ps4 though my preorder is on PC. Looks and plays great, just like the other titles in the series. Pick up dmc4 if you want to try and see if the game is for you. The new one is just a more fun and current gen version of the older games.

>>10572Go for Skyrim, all the games are floaty rehashes of the one before tbh. What is the draw of Elder Scrolls, specifically, to you?
As far as actiony fantasy RPG goes, The Witcher 3 offers a really robust fantasy RPG world full of content and cultural tidbits/lore. The third game is a major step-up in terms of mechanics as well as graphics and I'd say it's leagues better than Skyrim. They improved the game with each title and it's nice to see a series improve over time rather than release sequels that do nothing new. The first game's combar was lackluster for me but it's still better than Elder Scrolls' and as a newbie you'll probably still find it fulfilling. Give The Witcher a try.
A warning, though, in the first one in particular there is the grizzled white protagonist trope and lots of booty and sex, some one liners. The third is much better about it.

>>19350Nico's case completely reminds me of Lindsay Ellis' Mikaela from Transformers in which Mikaela is crafty, has her own story arch, and is an interesting persona overall but because of the camera, no one really remembers her that way. She's another object. The same applies to Nico.

> They could have given her a proper coat/top too but nooo. Gotta have the women naked or half-naked while Nero and Dante wear long pants, shirts and coats.I absolutely hate this too. There's nothing wrong with showing a little bit of skin but they're straight up pornified objects. Nico in particular. I never was this grossed out by a hypersexual female character.
> Another depressing things is following the DMC Reddit sub for memes but it's full of sexist chantards who think pedo rape is funny.Why am I not surprised?

Yes the big thing that creeps me out too is how this game forces you into a male gaze, first person view of a girl bending over when all you wanna do is buy items. A basic game function.
My picture is what you used to see when you were gonna buy items, and this is the DMC5 version:
https://www.reddit.com/r/DevilMayCry/comments/99pqe3/theres_a_miniature_divinity_statue_in_nicos_van/ No. 19448
>>19443Thank you, anon! It's great to see that I'm not alone in thinking that way. Even my other friends (all women) think that I'm exaggerating but when I automatically revert my gaze when Nico starts bending suggestively behind the counter, and that's after so many years of playing games, it means that it is too much.
Those comments just prove my point. They're gross and they don't care about her being skillful, it's just another porn material to them. My problem with that is that it enforces the idea that women are an eye candy and nothing more. It doesn't affect the characters in the video game but it will affect women irl when they have to interact with creeps like those in the comments.
I'm just slightly under two hours of playtime so I'm refunding the game. I'll be getting myself Sekiro which even features an obaasan boss for a change. I know that my action doesn't matter and won't change a thing, it's just that I can't justify supporting that treatment to myself. I can't continue playing after feeling so disgusted. The scene which I mentioned in my previous post, when Nico's fixing the car, still makes my skin crawl.
Shame because I used to love the Divinity Statue and its serene music theme when upgrading skills and purchasing items. I was hoping that Nico despite her skimpy outfit would not be sexualized to that point. I like that she's a loudmouth and doesn't hesitate to say what's on her mind, and that she's a crafty mechanic. However, all of that doesn't matter if it's all made to please men, the male gaze, a set of fetishes. The fact that it's a character we care about makes it even worse because how can others be okay with her being prostituted like that?
Alright, I'll stop sperging.

>>19708>I know it's kind of dumb but I like actually playing as a girl and dating other girls as opposed to pretending a male character is female. idk.Anon, stop saying your are dumb for wanting to date a girl as a girl! God! It's ok to be les/bi.
I wish I could give you a recommendation but the only game like this I have played is The Arcana, there is only one female love interest (out of 3 characters) but the story is very interesting.
No. 19746
>>19448You have expressed a lot of my own thoughts. To stop by at one of the Divinity Statues in previous games and listen to the mysterious calm music used to be a nice break from the action. Now you get attacked by female objectification instead. And I totally get you, when it's a lovable character and a series you love it just feels worse. Lady, who was cool in 3, got a real shit makeover in 4 too. All of this very obviously encourages male gamer's shitty attitude about women too.
If you continued to play it you'd only see more demeaning scenes anyway. And I'm a huge DMC fan but the game was kinda anti-climatic in general with that ending and after that long wait.
Sekiro looks beautiful. Feel free to post impressions here if you play it. Seems like the scary "monk" boss is female too.

>>19608Yeah the camera is absolute trash in DMC1 at times, I hope it's better in DMC3. I'm halfway through DMC1 and it's fun overall until you're in a boss fight and you can't see where Dante is, where the boss is, where you're leading Dante, and all you have in front of the camera is a piece of decoration or the background. I also end up spending way too much time on missions because I don't know where I have to go because of the camera and I have a bad ranking, so I get less red orbs.
Also, the only enemies that's really giving me problems are these grim reapers, they're harder to fight than the actual bosses.

I was so irritated by the nudity (like why?) and the way Nico was portrayed. she had the potentioal to be a super cool character, and I also enjoyed her friendship with Nero. I hated her outfit. She's supposed to be working with tools, but she barely has any clothes on. i legit dont understand this naked bullshit in games when hentai and hentai games exist. Hell, even doujins come out as soon as these games do, so why couldnt she wear a jacket and pants? I liked nico's face model with her freckles a lot.

ik this isn't a tech support community, but my 3DS XL suddenly decided to magically overheat (the touchscreen looks water damaged and the plastic around it is wrinkly) after I used it for the first time in 3 months(for like an hour) and then left it on a cool table while it was switched off. It's 2 years old so I probably won't be able to get Nintendo to fix it for free, so I'm quite sad. Has anyone experienced a similar issue? I can still use it, but it just looks horrible, with weird, pale and round blotches on the screen around the edges.

No. 28361
>>28099I'll sperg a lot about Atlus, sorry. I don't think it's just that. There are several teams of developers in Atlus and it's obvious the devs who were in charge of Persona 3 to 5 and Catherine almost only cared about having straight options. They made a lot of efforts to make Yosuke a gay option in Persona 4, his love confession was voiced by his Japanese and English voice actors, the hints are all in the original game and P4G, and they still provide plenty of fanservice for fujoshi who eat that shit up.
Me included Catherine was called out for being too straight, not just by SJW in the West but by a lot of fans who thoughts the love triangles were too exaggerated.
Cue these developers working on a brand new IP for Atlus and letting a new, younger team work work on P5R and the Catherine remake. Big spoiler for Catherine Fullbody:
the game went from having Vvincent completely straight to having a new male love interest. Supposedly, Atlus had to really insist for some scenes to be included without Sony censoring it and I'm sure that's the thing they were talking about.And you have an older team who worked on games like Persona 2 where the male protagonist's canon love interest is a guy (if you don't pay too much attention to the crazy love triangles in it) and DDS, which was supposed to have the two male main characters in a very ambiguous relationship, which was changed because the original story writer had to be hospitalized and she was so ill she thought she would die. The other story writer, Tadashi Satomi, added a new love triangle but THEN wrote a gay as fuck prequel between the MC and his rival. The novels confirm things even more but they're not all available in English. Don't get me started on the SMT4A ending where you pick one ally among the assist character, you can choose a guy and an NPC will tell you he's supposed to be your "goddess" regardless of gender (implying that character can be seen as a love interest). I think there's something almost official between the MC and another male playable character in Devil Survivor 2 but I haven't played it so idk if that's true.
If people find Persona so homophobic, they should either support the other Atlus games that are more respectful or boycott Atlus as a whole. They seem to forget that you can vote with you wallet by not buying things you don't support.

>>28099I did't mind not being able to romance any guys but it got on my nerves to see how hard people went to claim dating Ryuji would make less sense than dating your teacher, doctor, or a random alcoholic journalist. It's easier to slot a romantic conclusion to the end of Ryuji's character arc than have Kawakami explain that she isn't dating you right now but will as soon as you graduate. Saying "Atlus either just didn't want it or couldn't be bothered with backlash" is a reasonable enough explanation that you can take or leave, it doesn't need other excuses. The only part that kind of annoys me is that it means any male confidants can have more interesting backgrounds since they don't need to be under 25 and conventionally attractive. Iwai or Yoshida couldn't be the same characters if you could date them because it would be just a bit too creepy, but because of that they get to be a bit more interesting. Also, the worse parts of the male fandom being mad that you can't romance Shiho, which is awful given
it's heavily implied that she was sexually assaulted by a teacher and attempts suicide because of it and I don't trust Atlus or the fandom to do it well

But I fully agree with you, I don't mind not being able to romance the boys either because I didn't expect it to be possible, but the lengths people go through to try to justify how gay romance options would be less credible than some of the available female confidants (your teacher, the drunk adult journalist, your pseudo-little sister) is ridiculous. Like as
>>28361 explained Atlus has put in gay stuff before, it wouldn't be that farfetched to be able to date Ryuji. Hell it's not just me being a fujo, I would gladly take the option of playing as a female character and date them too if homos were too icky for the mainstream because the male characters are so interesting and I'd like to explore a romantic option with them.

>>26392This only started happening with Persona 4 and 5. It’s weird because game companies used to mistranslate shit for years (like Persona 1, Silhouette Mirage and the Lunar games) and nobody made a big deal out of it. When Persona 3 came out the only concern was groups going after it because of the gun shooting to summon personas.
And it’s dumb for people to call certain dating options “unrealistic” when Persona 5 is the most unrealistic game in the series. I used to like how down to earth the games were for an urban fantasy and now every game needs a mascot character, latex outfits and a beach scene for whatever stupid reason. Even in Persona 3 the dog was just a dog.

>>28368> Even in Persona 3 the dog was just a dog.To be honest I think it all started with Aigis just being here to be a robot obedient waifu. Even the character designer and the developers said they didn't want to put her in the game at first because she clashed with the more down-to-earth characters and atmosphere, but they still went with adding Aigis in the game anyway. I'm not going to complain about Teddie because he didn't feel that weird and out of place in P4 but Aigis and Morgana shouldn't have been in Persona.

What do you guys think about the newest VtM game so far? From what little I've seen of gameplay, I'm not really that bothered.
What bothers me is that if you base a game off something with such deep lore, you have to get it right, you have to get the story correctly and from what little snippets of lore we got (as in 6 clan introductions each having barely around 50 seconds of slow-moving content) they already fucked it up.
This is going to be a sperg so prepare to cringe. They have ventrue lighting a cigarette and setting fire to someone in her close proximity, toreador using matches to light up the candles and brujah throwing a flaming molotov. There are two things wod vampires avoid like plague - sunlight and also fire. Not only it hurts, the vampires are very afraid of it, sometimes to the point of getting into an uncontrollable frenzy and temporarily losing all humanity. In the tabletop you would have to pass a courage check successfully to ever do simple things like smoking/lighting candles, not to mention setting someone/thing on fire several feet away from yourself. There's also a thinblood trailer (which calls thinbloods a clan, huh) that has a thinblood partially, but pretty explicitly in the sunlight. This you can probably justify since with newer generations the power of the curse might get weaker.
But still. If you read even a shred of the lore how can you get such a simple thing so wrong? Sunlight and fire, two things you have to specifically avoid. Just uh.
We also have pretty severe masquerade violations from those short clips it seems, but that's an even bigger nitpick since we don't have the whole picture of the setting yet and it might be justified.
I'm just so fucking afraid they make it another pretty fighting game. I want proper roleplay, proper conflict and intrigue again, proper characterisation.
Most of all I just want to play malk again, because I have no rp communities around me and the games are my only outlet for self-indulgent vampiric autism.

I fucking hope that we will see some animal fucking crossing gameplay. Also hope that they won't waste too much time to broadcast all details about the new Smash DLC character because fuck they had the entire E3 presentation last year for that kind of shit.
My wish list: Animal Crossing gameplay and release date + Bayonetta 3 teaser + some shit I didn't knew I wanted until it was announced + F-Zero.

>>35292SO we get Animal Crossing in 2020! WOw I knew it wouldn't happen this year. Gonna wait for the Treehous gameplay because I'm curious about several thing. BREATH OF THE WILD SEQUEL BITCHES AAAAAAAAAHHhhhhhhhhhh this shit got me screaming but overal a very weak E3 conference tbh. It was mainly just ports and games I don't give a fuck about. So much trash.
No Bayonetta

>>35326Not like the complainers actually play video games anyway.
So glad it's possible to stealth the whole game. But knowing an actual release date almost makes the wait harder.

>>35095I'm excited but I'm not a fan of the first person perspective in games. I hope they put in as much effort as they claim.

Is Majora's Mask a good game? BOTW is the only Zelda game I've ever played and I keep hearing really good things about MM. But I'm going to be honest, the gameplay seems kind of tedious. Is it just nostalgia? pls no bully
No. 35923
>>35922To be honest even as a huge Zelda fan I feel the gameplay is frustrating at times like controlling the Goron mask roll. I haven't played the remake on the 3DS so maybe it was just N64 controls but it was annoying to get through certain dungeons. There's also the 3 day timer so unless you know what you're doing you'll keep having to go back and forth. I feel people raise the game up because it's a "darker" Zelda
It's still a good game and the story is pretty good. If you really like Zelda for Zelda I'd play it. But if you like Zelda just because of BOTW then I'd maybe watch a playthrough and start branching out with a main game.
No. 35924
>>35922It is very tedious and stressful due to the time constraints and the moon always looming over you. The N64 version is super uggo too, that game is dark in more ways than one. It's like the exact opposite of botw.
The plot is really cool though so I suggest you watch an LP of it like
>>35923 said. Chuggaaconroy's has always been my favorite, I think I watched it when it first came out

>>35976What if I told you BOTW is the only zelda game worth playing besides link's awakening and a link between worlds?
No. 36164
>>35922played it a year or so ago and didn't find it tedious. I know another anon described it as stressful but I didn't find it so (unlike other games with hard time limits like Pikmin)
the atmosphere really holds up, it's a high quality game
as an aside: anyone that enjoyed figuring out the order of events over over multiple days might want to look up Outer Wilds - really impressive game

i'm obsessed with red dead redemption 2 online. i love submerging myself in my character and minor roleplaying. neutral honor, will be a trader when the new update comes out, gets into many fistfights, and prefers rifles. if i could live in any video game, it would be this one
also i bought a switch for the new animal crossing so it better be good

Is the Witcher 3 really as good as people say? I gave it a try and I really couldn't get into it. Geralt is way too horny and the controls are really clumsy. It just seems like the sort of generic, edgy fantasy stuff that's popular, like GOT, but people keep talking about it like it changed their whole life. What am I missing out on?
No. 38817
>>38775It's bad. Combat sucks and the dialog is cringe. Geralt is extremely unlikeable.
HOWEVER the open world is actually the best execution of open world though, so if you want to experience a truly populated and immersive world it can be worth a shot.

I'm about 40 hours into Dragon Quest XI and tbh I'm at that point where I'm just playing to finish. I mean, it's fun and it's very pretty, but the story and characters are ridiculously boring and cookie cutter. The music is too repetitive.
I gotta say though, I totally love the scenes with the Michelle/mermaids/Nautica. Fun dialogue and pretty character designs and sets.

First look on the Nintendo Switch Lite.
Thoughts on this?
Idk how to feel about this because some games are trash for playing in only hand-mode imo. The color selection is also super ugly.

>>39772And I like to add since I just saw this after posting the trailer: There will be also a Pokemon version if anybody cares.
Hope there will be a zelda and animal crossing one too…

>>39786It is true that some games are garbage in handheld mode (Hyrule Warrior for example) and some games are playable in handheld mode BUT some actions can be only made if you play it with separated joy-cons. They used mario Odyssey as an example in the trailer for the handheld mode, which is one of the games that has some only joy-cons actions in the game (jumping and throwing cappy around) and therefore not really suitable for the Switch Lite. (Speaking from my own experience because I'm a mostly handheld mode person) I only see this for some casual games like SSBU or Mario Kart, but not where you have to wank around your switch like an idiot.
