Those two games have the same back-of-the-box summary but they rapidly go off in totally different directions and tell different stories.

Also Aloy never kicks a random slave off to their death "Because it's something cool guys do."

I remember reading some dev quote about Enslaved that said that and I was like, what the gently caress are you guys on? I wish I could find it again

Yeah it was the director at Ninja Theory whose name I forget, he had to be talked out of it by Alex Garland who was the writer.
He's the same guy responsible for the 'gay cowboy' slide talking about old DMC Dante.

What was this scenario? Something in the game or something they wanted to do?

I always wanted to play that because of Alex garlands involvement but i didn't enjoy the little bit of gameplay I tried.

Before you enter negotation, look at the corner of the screen to see the Persona's mood.

Irritable ones like serious answers.
Gloomy ones like vague or mysterious answers.
Timid ones like reassuring answers.
Upbeat ones like joking answers.

Of course even with this information 90% of them will still make no sense, but hth

this is def useful so thanks for sharing; I just randomly selected answers and it usually works, but it's nice to actually know how it works

thematically the hold up stuff is cool but I miss the way the last couple persona games did it. never liked the negotiation stuff in other smt games either

People joke about it a lot (and it is annoying) but the circumstances that you get told to go to bed are usually consistent. It's after you've been to a palace/mementos or when story heavy stuff is going on.

Yeah, I hardly ever hear that anymore since I know what triggers it and just go to bed myself...it's just a shitload of times in the game and that's the real problem.

Everyone should play DUKE games.

:dukedog:
Is Berserk and the Band of the Hawk good? Can anyone here that picked it up give their thoughts? I only get one or two ______ Warriors games a system ever so I won't burn out on it from the inevitable grinding, but how does it stack up to the other spinoffs of Dynasty Warriors? I like Berserk a lot.

I guess for reference, I like Legend of Zelda and Fist of the North Star a lot too. I think Hyrule Warriors is one the best (maybe THE best) for using its license so well, and Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage is boring dogshit for using it so badly.

Yeah in 3 it would just go like that and if you chose to study anyway you'd have a negative status effect the next day....but that was just for combat and not "heard a lot of exposition today, too tired to do anything".

it is kinda weird that they have morgana say "let's not do that today" instead of just having the mc say he's tired like the last ones

I'm sure in the history of outlaws across the world there were some of them who were neurotic about things like sleep schedules and DVD rental overdue fees, and Morgana isn't the only one.

While the char selection is pretty short, and the bosses can be frustrating to fight. The gameplay is superb. Plowing through the enemy's as Guts is just so satisfying.
I would say wait for a sale. If a Berserk 2 would come out. It would probably fix most of the problems this one has. Which is mostly the short char selection and the samey Eclipse mode.
I got my 60 bucks out of it though. I really enjoyed this game.
