lmao Path of Exile is a good game and definitely not a MMORPG for the simple fact it has actual gameplay and it resets its economy every 3 months now, sorry

alien isolation is really good and my personal GOTY, if you like stealth/horror games buy it the next time it's on sale

best part of dark souls multiplayer is that people can only communicate through gestures it's actually fun to play with strangers!

MonkeyforaHead posted:I have legit had some rage issues with games ever since playing the first Trauma Center. I got as far as the final epilogue level with the dual spider viruses, but after two weeks of attempts that level broke something in me, and I almost broke my DS in response. Now I can actually Get Mad At Videogames despite myself but it helps a lot if I don't have access to voice chat. Basically, gently caress Trauma Center with a length of rusty barbed wire. What difficulty are you playing? I only noticed 2 minor bugs while playing the game and none of them had to do with the Alien so I don't know what happened there. Note that if it can't find you but knows you are there somewhere he'll sometimes 'sniff' the air but that's a clear animation. The AI 'learns' your habit so if you've been hiding under tables a lot he'll start looking there first thing. A pro active stealth strategy works a lot better than cowering in lockers, use your flares and noisemakers if he won't leave and keep moving if possible. Don't get me wrong, it's fairly hard as far as games go, but I think the game was very fair to me on normal difficulty at least.

Hog Inspector posted:not really the next big thing so much as a continuing trend but i expect way more videogames attempting to tackle themes that far exceed their staffs' writing abilities I doubt anything is going to eclipse MGS V for a while when it comes out in that department.

I dunno you get kind of jaded when you buy 60 bucks triple A super star title that gets hyped to hell by dewrito journalism and turns out to be a massive disappointment. On the other hand I played Alien: Isolation recently that had pretty much everything against it and it was easily my GOTY. People who complain that games are somehow worse than in the past are full of poo poo, always.

How is the HotS community? I really enjoyed Dota 2 on a strictly gameplay level but I've never seen a community that toxic in a multiplayer videogame before, and I have fairly thick skin. None of my friends play MOBAs otherwise I would just play with them. I played it for quite a while until I started noticing I got increasingly irritated over a dumb videogame I play for my supposed enjoyment.

Thanks for the replies on HotS goons, guess I'll just try it out once I have the time.

I finished ME3 earlier this year and I liked it overall. I already knew the ending was going to be disappointing, but the extended cut made it mediocre rather than atrocious. When I finished and looked at the original ending on youtube I could understand why people would be mad after spending 60 bucks pre-ordering when it got released. I never took the ME series' storyline very seriously, the whole series was just good dumb fun for me. I think the thing I disliked the most about ME3, other than Kai Leng blahblahblah, was that the renegade options consisted mostly of screwing over close friends for no real reason. As if a renegade character would ever betray Wrex for the help of some wimpy rear end alien species. Anyway ME3 had Citadel so it was worth it to me for that DLC alone.

lmao at people not doing the loyalty missions and wondering why their party members are dropping like flies during the suicide mission even though the game heavily hints that Yes, You Should Really Fix My Issues

meaningful gameplay choices = good meaningful story choices = bad, cause it usually sucks away development time and railroads you to a samey conclusion with minor deviations cause it's impossible to make a game like that any other way unless you make it super generic like a bethesda game

Yeah, I agree Alpha Protocol probably did the best job out of any game I personally know when it comes to a reactive story. I also agree that TWD season 1 does a good job creating an illusion of choice, however if you do any research or play through the game a second time you kind of feel cheated in a way when you realize your influence isn't as great as you initially thought. This is ofcourse unavoidable in most if not all games that attempt this. Strangely enough, I feel Heavy Rain handled this specific part quite well, where the protagonists can indeed die with genuine consequences to the story. It also added a lot of tension to dangerous scenes in a natural way. Unfortunately, David Cage is an amazingly bad writer that makes Hideo Kojima look like an expert in subtle and brief storytelling in comparison. That being said I think this approach greatly limits a game in many ways that ultimately bring it down for reasons already discussed.

Some game devs look jealously at their movie director cousins and want to be just as 'culturally relevant' as them, instead of just making really good games because games aren't movies and are great on their own if done properly.

AAA studios suck. However, indie devs also suck. Both sometimes make good games.
