Kiss the Joycon to Kiss Zelda

I probably won't be collecting everything because f that. I'll hopefully get it finished off this week then. It'll be my first completed PS4 game. :toot:

You don't get anything neat for collecting all of it other than a single reference to old TR games, anyway. :v:

I loved the the second one, but TR '13 will always be better in my head. More interesting enemies to fight.

It doesn't help that the secret enemies in the second one are pretty much the same thing as the secret enemies in the first one. Like I was hoping for some kind of weird monstrosities or something and instead I got zombie legionnaires instead of zombie samurai.

Yeah, that was a big disappointment. The third act in TR '13 really shook up combat and threw you off your toes because there hadn't been anyone fighting like them beforehand. Expected a similar change in the second game, but it was a complete retread - only difference was increased bullet sponginess. Even their gimmick, IMMORTAL REGENERATING DEMON ROMANS, had no impact on actual gameplay.

So I bought a Pro yesterday. I uploaded all my saves to cloud storage on my old PS4 but when I went to download them to the Pro it doesn't work(says something like the application isn't available). Does this mean I can't download saves for games I haven't played yet on the Pro? That's a big issue for the Nioh last chance trial data since it's not playable anymore.

You can't download save files for games that are not installed. I ran into that, too.

I want to for sure download LittleBigPlanet 3. I had read though that its original release had a lot of bugs and technical issues. Hopefully all of those problems are fixed by now. I wonder if Media Molecule will ever release Dream.

I'm finally near the end of MGS5 (I took a break many months ago right after beating what seemed at the time to be the final battle) and yeah, this is chaos and nonsense. There's a whole other game of story material in here but basically just in cutscene form without hardly any new gameplay to back it up.

Trying to get those last few technicians that unlock certain weapon trees is maddening and I should probably stop.

Correct, the console does not report to the game whether or not the player plugged in a xim so there's no way anyone except Sony can enforce a ban.

Blizzard doesn't give a poo poo about what people do on consoles. Exhibit A: Characters with hacked 1bil+ paragon and level bazillion items in Diablo 3.

I've never played a TR game outside of 2013 so that won't do much for me. :v:

Aside from a few bullshit fights (Shanty Town :argh:) it has been pretty fun.

TR2013 would have made a much better movie than the actual Tomb Raider movies.

I find the LBP physics enjoyable when the level design takes advantage of them like the main campaign does. When you drop into a user level and they're trying to make something that would be more along the lines of the what you'd see in Mario it really stands out. It's really hard to make a good LBP level from a gameplay perspective so most of the best user levels are more cool from a technical perspective in my experience. You can do a lot more with LBP than you could with something like Mario Maker, but the basic mechanics of Mario are so solid that it's easier to make an actual fun level with it if you put in a minimal effort.

I honestly doubt that, considering Nomura farted around for 10 Year wasting Designers and Artists. I bet they broke even on the actual development time of 2 years.

The dock really fucks a case or nerfing it.

Crossposting from Nioh thread.

After literally not being able to beat the first enemy in the alpha I jumped back in off only good hype.

Beat first level with 2 deaths total.

All the "its so hard" reviews. I think are wrong. You have a 100% damage block with every weapon. It works. If you level spears you get a hide behind distance weapon AND levels hp. If you were on the fense but didnt want to get stomped into the ground. I recommend this game.

Does the Doom updates do much for the single player? Is it alright to start playing unpatched or is the game busted/missing something. I usually don't mind waiting but in this case it's thirty gigs and given my psn speeds might take about 3 days to download.

The patches added arcade mode which is a really fun, no bullshit progression system way to play the game.

But not really necessary for my first playthrough right? I am downloading the update but wanted to make sure it doesn't rebalance the story mode for the better or fix a major bug or anything like that.
