Thx for At the Mountains of Madness, reviews are horrid but they've been updating the game a lot so here's hoping it'll turn out at least playable.

Since I finished Darksiders 2: Deathfinitive/definitive/collectors edition etc... I decided to play some more random games starting with D!
- Positives: It a unique concept, viruses and the like invading the body, nice and colourful.
- Negetives: It's still a Tower Defense Game with all the grind that entails.
- Positives: Nice simple top down concept with mostly good controls. can set up some really complex things.
- Negatives: Annoying currency unlocks, strafing fiddly.
- Postives: Delightfully simple element combination game. Combine Fire and earth to make lava, combine alcohol and cars to make corpses, combine radiation and metal to make plutonium. Fill out the globe with all your discoveries.
- Negatives: That's kind of all it is, no replayability.
Now downloading Driver: San Francisco. have played it on Xbox so I know what I'm getting into.

Yeah, the rat puzzles were what made me drop the game. I should go back to it at some point, it was a decent hack n' slasher, but everything aside of the combat sections sucked really REALLY bad.
lol just ignored the stealth mechanics and made a run for the objective and went into mist when he caught up. Welp thats one way of doing it, fuck you for your shitty section MS
rat puzzles? thoe were fine imo. Unless there are some worse ones later on. In fact this was the only first real frustrating part, and even this one is quite short (and breakable as I just proven)

Wanna know what makes even worse? You have to fight that guy as a boss afterwards

So glad to hear that Lords of Shadow 2 is the garbo i thought it was. I didn't like the first one that much but it was somewhat promising so I've been tempted by 2 a couple of times
There hasnt been a good Castlevania game yet so I don't know what people are expecting

Now you're just saying things to say them
you can't be serious
how can you say that Symphony of the Night and Aria of Sorrow are not good?

That's the infamous one yeah.
Honestly found the hate overblown for it though personally :/
I still like LOS 2. Yes this is the hill I will die on
I liked the boss, it was very Souls-y
anyway, pass the Toy Maker part now, back to the real world. These games are quite long huh? Speaking of the Toy Maker, nice callback to Mirror of Fate where you last see him just creeping up and dont actually fight him. Well, that and the whole...Mirror of Fate quest in the game lol

Im liking it a lot, that section was awful tho. But I broke it by running to the objective and misting when he got near me so at least it was fast (fast after I failed a few times trying to do it properly)
I know you are trying to be all edgy on the internet and whatnot, but you just sound like a fool
Looks like GoG has a new build-your-bundle sale.

Hah. A similar thing happened to me but only once. We two summons could not enter the boss fog after the host but didn't get hit by the boss.
That looks really atmospheric. Nice.
Nice. I'm still catching up with your Youtube videos of PAX. PSVR sounds nice. Might be a cheap alternative if they bring PC support like they hinted.
You can take hudless shots with dsfix. Maybe some wallhugging could get you rid of the character as well.
But it was so short and easy.

I dunno but the Indy games on steam are crap ports anyhow if you read up on them.
Yeah, they use some sort of filtering that doesn't really look good. The current LucasArts bundle on GOG is really cheap at the moment though and it seems to have classic versions: https://www.gog.com/promo/bundleopolis_academy_of_lucas_arts_250416

That's fine but the fact you had to do an insta-fail stealth section before fighting the boss makes one wonder why even have a stealth section to begin with.
It's a nice game, I didn't finish it because I needed to wipe-out my hdd due to a windows installation error and I forgot to back-up the saves, it's a very bland Tomb-Raiderish game, with less puzzles and more action. It's ok, nothing great or spectacular, but funny if you lke the character.

I'm actually happy to see new tech coming later so I won't feel bad with my current card. I am a bad person I think.

The more I play Dark Souls 3, the more I love it. It's not perfect by any means, but damn. Feels so much more DS than DS2.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
So this one was made by From's B+ team, then?
It's ~$30 on the Russian store.

Miyazaki really has only done heavy lifting on Demon's, Dark 1, and Bloodborne. People fooling themselves if they think he did much in DS3 except sit around and verify the dignity of the monsters in the game during his coffee breaks

I dunno, for me, Dark Souls 1, 2, and 3 are all missing that certain something.
That je ne sony quoi, you know?

Nah, makes sense. I'm just champing at the bit for a single card that supports freesync that can reliably render at 4k

I haven't played BB or Dark 3 so I can't vouch for those 2 but i flip between Dark 1 and Demon's on the regular for which i think is the better game. I really liked Dark 2 but it felt the same way that Batman Oranges did: a damn fine game but it didn't really hang with the other two.
Corpse Party is out in two hours, I am really curious about that one. It's a shame that the updated art hasn't been incorporated into the PC release.

From all the Souls, the second Dark Souls I enjoyed the least and it has nothing to do with b-team or something like that. The bosses were a huge letdown and the world-building was not as tight as used from DeS and DS. With world-building I don't mean the world design, cohesiveness or logical connections but the lore and atmosphere. Then there were also mechanical changes which I did not like; movement and camera. It's still a great game and by no means a bad Souls entry.
Haven't played Bloodborne, so can't talk about it.

also, Dracula is crazy. I guess a thousand years hiding out in a church will do that to you
edit: so that Romero FPS isnt a f2p arena shooter, yay

So, who's here gonna be backing Romero's Kickstarter? I've never been a fan of arena shooters, but I'm curious to see what do he have up his sleeve.

I will. I realize the odds of this crashing and burning is quite high but I kinda want to see that as much as a released game.

The movement was the big thing that put me off 2 as well.
I was playing 2 a bit before 3 came out and it felt great when I started 3 and found that the movement and combat was back to how 1 was.
theres a simple thing you can do when someone says DS2 is the best of the series, or even on par with 1, or even well designed, and thats to link them to this http://darksouls2.wiki.fextralife.com/agility
Agility increases how long the character is invincible during a roll and decreases how long it takes to use consumables.

Epistory, the typing action rpg, looks neat (GB quicklook)
damn being colorblind must suck for color puzzles ;_;

Thank goodness for mods huh
Frankly, these niche games hardly ever get mods of any kind.
It should be possible to add the newer artwork, but that doesn't mean someone will actually do it.

Then I guess you can link them to this :3
But it isn't? At all? I mean, you might have a point in the combat part, and that is by striping out the improvements made in DS2. And movement has really nothing to do with DS1 in the slightest. It borrows much more from DS2 and Bloodborne's system than it does DS1.
