No one dies in Musou games outside of cutscenes, they're just "KO"ed. The last time they did actually violent ones was the Fist of the North Star games and those didn't turn out so hot. Berzerk Musou is going to be weird.

Maybe they'll write a better story since the manga became real weird.

The last stage of Berserk Musou is just an Idle clicker game of Guts on a boat.

It looks good, but it's really more of a system shock successor than a Prey reboot.

drat I played the new Doom demo they just released for E3 and its some real good poo poo. It's neat how just freaking mobile you are, like I was getting used to the fact that Doomguy's jump is actually really good for the whole demo. Might have to buy it soon.

It's 11pm here in Los Angeles, so this one's still technically on time! Seems like a good time to post the most obvious one on my list. 1. Banished 2. StarTopia 3. Imperium Romanum Gold Edition 4. Port Royale 2 5. 1849 6. Cities in Motion 7. AdvertCity 8. Anno 2070 9. Big Pharma 10. Tropico Reloaded 11. The Settlers 7: Paths to a Kingdom 12. SimCity 4 Deluxe Edition    The simulation genre wouldn't be what it is without the venerable SimCity series. Since 1989, the many entries in the line have allowed people to become virtual mayors and design cities of just about any shape and size, limited only by the contents of the game itself. They've come a long way from the original and branched out in many different ways across platforms, and not every instalment has been a success. SimCity 4 is often described as the last great SimCity, and with that and my own remembered fondness for it I decided to see how it's held up over the last 13 years. Honestly I find it a little difficult to describe the nature of SimCity, because it is such an elemental part of the genre. You lay down roads, outline zones for development of homes and businesses, build power plants and fire stations, balance your taxes against your utility expenditures, and grow your little town as large as it will go. These are all core concepts pioneered by the series, but 4 presents them with greater refinement. Each individual service building like police stations and hospitals can have their funding adjusted to meet local demand, so you can build expensive services and then scale them back to what you can afford until you need more. Zone density can also be scaled up or down without destroying existing buildings, allowing them to grow or shrink as needed. It's one of the purest and accessible presentations of the city-building formula out there, with no production chains or unlockables to concern yourself with. You build what you want, where you want, with the only limitations being space and money. SimCity 4 is far more generous than its predecessors with the latter, allowing you to start with enough money to cover most of a map right from the outset. And with control of individual building funding, it's a simple task to keep your budget in the green. The maps remain plenty large enough for bustling metropolises, but they're also connected by regions, allowing you to get a grand overview of your cities, granting your people the option of commuting to other areas, and creating massive metro areas with interconnected cities and neighborhoods. The end result is a robust and expansive city-builder limited only by its age. SimCity 4 is still a 2D game, despite some voxel trickery to make it look deeper and more dynamic than it is. You're laying everything out on a grid, which makes building at anything other than right angles either cumbersome in the case of roads and rails, or impossible in the case of buildings. The terrain is deformable and conforms to your constructions to a point, but if your landscape is very hilly at all you'll end up with houses built on soaring foundations larger than the dwelling itself, and beaches and piers plunging off of your coastlines into the deep. The detailed pixel art of the buildings is impressive, and each is rendered from four directions so you can rotate the camera, but they look chunky at max zoom and indistinct at a distance. Despite these shortcomings, SimCity 4 remains one of the finest city-builders you can lose yourself in. The steady pace of construction matched with the enormous variety of buildings and services to work towards means you can spend hours crafting a single city without having to wait for long periods or growing bored. The data displays show you everything you need to understand how your city operates, from pollution and traffic overlays to the actual routes your citizens take daily. There are even optional driving missions you can take in your own city and Sims you can move in to get more personal feedback. It might not be the prettiest or slickest offering anymore, but SimCity 4 has stood the test of time and remains one of the most addictive and comprehensive city-builders on the market.

The Lone Badger posted:Is Wasted any good? Seems to be a Borderlands parody. I was going more for Fallout meets Spelunky or Eldritch. Borderlands never really factored into it at all besides maybe the aesthetic and occasionally my writing is bad ??? A lot of people seem to have played like a run or two, got wiped by the Spelunky Ghost analogue and then just gave up instead of trying to learn how to play the game, but there's a lot more to the game than it originally lets on. It's definitely not as shootymansy as the other poster said either -- a big part of the game is manipulating the AI and either sneaking past it, getting it to infight with other enemies, or to lead them into traps. Of course, there's also just shooting stuff too. There's definitely an uphill battle when you're first starting off, since I didn't tutorialize the game properly (and even more because you really have to get out of the mindset that you're playing Fallout 3/4 where you can just explore everything at a leisurely pace), but once you get the mechanics, I think there's a lot of fun to be had. I know I'm biased, since it's my own game, but I mean, Steam refunds are a thing now, so if you're even on the fence about it, there are worst ways to spend an hour or two than to give the game a shot. Even after a year and a half of straight dev, I still pick it up and play the game myself and nearly every session I play, there's some weirdo chain of events death that makes me laugh out loud. EDIT: Total Biscuit did a fairly balanced review of the game, which you can watch if you want a better idea of how it plays. It's very hard (as you can tell from watching the video) and he gets a few facts wrong, but generally I think the points he brings up are valid, and I'll be working on addressing them in the upcoming versions of the game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sak6K3oRpYk Mr. Podunkian fucked around with this message at 07:58 on Jun 13, 2016 |

Yeah they tried that with Bioshock, it was bad I played a bit of Bioshock, never finished, then played and finished System Shock 2, then went back and finished Bioshock 1/2/infinite. System Shock 2 was an immensely better game. That wasn't nostalgia either, as I had never played any of them. Then I played all of them in a reasonable period of time, a few years ago. I generally dislike old games and SS2 was still better.
