Finished Shadowrun dragonfall, returns was better.

What? How?!

Are you thinking of Shadowrun: Hong Kong and not Returns????
Wait...is this a turn-based Mount & Blade?

A solid maybe. There was no going solo in the first game--you controlled the entire village in a more traditional 4X style. It might be kinda Dwarf Fortress-y with the fortress mode/adventure mode split, I guess?

It all sounds very exciting, in any case.

That's... a rather unorthodox opinion. What did you like about Returns? Because whatever it is, Dragonfall quite objectively did it better (story, gameplay, level design, combat, soundtrack, polish, etc). Unless there's something else I haven't noticed that Returns did better?

I'm very interested to hear why you prefer Returns, which of course is a great game in its own right, but I consider it the least amazing of the HBS trilogy.
 
In regards to Shadowrun Returns:

I have a mission with that "legendary hacker" Dodger? Well I made a fucking horribkle mistake of him being the only decker in the squad and every time he goes into the mainframe he gets killed by other deckers, even though he things he has summoned to protect him and help him with the problem. I guess I should nuke that save and get 2 deckers in the squad

Damn, I kinda dropped DD and haven't gone back to it. I was enjoying it but I've been focusing on Nier and I'm still on route B and P5 hits in a couple of days and I honestly have no idea when I will get back to it.

If you want a turn-based Mount & Blade...

I enjoyed all three Shadowrun games a lot, but Dragonfall was definitely my favorite. If I recall correctly, Returns had some interesting BTL missions, which I always appreciate. Hong Kong was also great, though perhaps not as well-paced as Dragonfall. I really appreciated the different perspective from the protagonist's point of view. It was the only one I played as a female character, and I think it works very well.

I don't think you really ever need more than 1 decker.

Bayonetta on Steam would be great, but SEGA needs to get on Vanquish ASAP.

I still remember what happened back when Kamiya visited Valve. After Kamiya tweeted the pictures of the visit with a Valve employee, two days later Valkyria got announced and the Valve employee tweeted out that Sega should release Vanquish on Steam, which either got a retweet from Kamiya and like from sega or the other way round. I'd hope it got discussed at the very least - hopefully in the pipeline for some eventful day.

Just thinking that Valkyria had something like 2 people do the whole thing, it wouldn't surprise me that a tiny amount of people are give a long time to work through it

seems interesting but the price for me is too high at the moment

It's pretty amazing. Got to play a bit on at a friend's, who has been raving about it for while. Legit. Also an amusing point that goes on at Valve regarding the game:

Via TotalBiscuit:

Fun Valve Fact: A senior member of Valve gets cross with Valve employees who do not have Battle Brothers installed on their computers.

"#battlebrothers dev here: Thats a real Battle Brother right there ;) Tweet made our day over here!"

For anyone out of the loop Battle Brothers is an awesome Turn based combat / strategy / RPG thing set in medieval times. It is kind of Xcom crossed with Mount & Blade, Jagged Alliance and a bunch of other things.

A lot of fun

I quit Dragon's Dogma for a while because the Everfall was tough, but I went back and beat it. Then I started playing NG+ for about two hours and had to catch myself before I spent another 50 hours in the game.

Never did face the Ur-Dragon or enter Bitterblack Isle. Maybe one day. There's so much stuff in the game!
 
Heh, Bayonetta might not be Yakuza, Persona, or another Valkyria game, but I'll take any Platinum title on PC I can get.

Also, Stellaris Utopia HYPE TRAIN GO.

The insane string of 2017 releases continues.

WH40K: Dawn of War III is looking pretty dope. I just got that Humble Black Library bundle too, so I've been reading lots of WH40K fiction. Stuff is dumb but in an awesome way. Dawn of War II has tons of great stuff in it so if this follows the trend it should be great.

Cosmic Star Heroine is one I've been looking forward to since 2013 and their Kickstarter. Zeboyd does some great work and this is supposedly the biggest game they've ever made. Also pretty much anything with inspiration from Suikoden and Phantasy Star has a plus in my book.

FUCKING FULL THROTTLE FINALLY.

It's already been an insane year even if it ends next month.

Just saying it would be nice to get a port of a new gamer like those (maybe not the new Valkyria since it seems to be really bad) instead of ports of older titles.

an npc at the bunker in Nier told me about changing clothes at the transport, i wonder if it's originally supposed to be done that way and they changed that

The real test is if you got the What Are You Doing? achievement naturally or unlocked it from the store.

Yes, 2B's skirt is too cute to blow up.

I just looked up what that achievement is, hmmm what should I do

You can see her ass anyway. I didnt do it because she looks like shit without the dress.

haha yeah,
I just equip her with the armor costume without the helmet
, she's cooler that way, I also wish this game has more costumes
