I'm thinking of picking up No Man's Sky as a chill wander around the galaxy looking at weird things game. Kind of like Proteus, but with cooler environments. How good is it at that? How much does the survival stuff intrude on having fun?

Unfortunately it doesn't get very weird. The animal generation is a lot less interesting than the stuff they showed off initially, as is the terrain. The survival elements don't get in the way, but it's still probably overpriced currently for the amount of exploration in it.

If you pick either of the 'survival' difficulty modes then the game becomes intensely less fun. Which is saying a lot.

Very occasionally you'll find a planet which is an amazing pain in the rear end to explore, like you'll need to refill your shield every 20 seconds, or you'll be constantly attacked by sentinels, but then you just fly to another planet.

Guy Mann posted:Ninja Theory has always been good and it makes me happy to see people acknowledging it after an army of butthurt weeaboos spent the past half decade ranting and raving to the contrary. I quite liked the art direction of Heavenly Sword and Enslaved and appreciated having more digital andy serkis

DmC is a fun game.

It also got a re-release on consoles that fixed the combat, so there's that I guess.

I've heard that Ninja Theory's DMC wasn't bad per se, but not as refined as the original games. Having open contempt for fans of the original didn't really put them in good graces, though, and if you've seen that GDC slideshow presentation that Ninja Theory made describing their approach, well...combined with some of the stuff that ended up in the game, it's not something I think people are really willing to defend nowadays.

Dias posted:So it's a bad dumb bait. I'm glad we've arrived at the correct conclusion. It's one of the most unique, immersive and memorable games I've ever played but it's also the definition of Not For Everyone. The story takes maybe 6-8 hours to complete, there's no real replay value to speak of, the combat is competent but sparse, and there are some long sections where you're just solving a puzzle or walking. Somehow all these elements combine to become greater than the sum of their parts and deliver a harrowing and often hauntingly beautiful experience of a Celtic warrior suffering from extreme psychosis. There are a lot of ways that concept could have totally gone off the rails, but it doesn't and it's just so out there that I can't help but praise it.

The only thing I know about enslaved is in the post mortem for the game, there was a writer asking why the hell the lead character was such an rear end in a top hat and the designers being surprised because they thought kicking slaves to death was him being a badass.

Also, is Cargo the latest game from the Pathalogic people? Seems... appropriate.

No it was made in 2011. I was going to say technically yes it is their latest but apparently they made some game called Knock-knock.

So, are there any third person action RPG's in the vein of Fable, Kingdoms of Amalur or Dragon's Dogma on the horizon? I've been hankering for something like those games for quite a while but I haven't really seen anything like that besides the PS4 version of Dragon's Dogma in october.

It's not a post mortem. The game's writer, Alex Garland, saw some preproduction cutscenes and said they really needed to change this if they didn't want their lead to be an rear end in a top hat. There's no slave kicking in the game.

I "passed" that game, apparently going over time and not being able to finish it properly. All I really remember is it became more obtuse as I progressed and it was a total crapshoot running through the woods to if you'd find what you were looking for?

Mill Village posted:I finished West of Loathing. The writing was easily the best part of the game. I think I'll take a break before I try to get the other endings, the game has some issues I hope the developers fix. I also played and finished it, and yeah, there are some weird things in there and magic is OP like it is in the webgame. The Military Cemetery has a second puzzle to it that I haven't figured out yet; I think it has something to do with the random wander things you get with the numbers but I'm not sure.

Battle Brothers, Invisible Inc... okay, they're slightly unorthodox choices but they're insanely good. Other options: Disgaea, Phantom Brave, Voidspire Tactics.

Yeah, Knock-Knock had a fantastic sense of place, but the victory condition was a bit too esoteric even by Icepick Lodge's standards. And Cargo was... Cargo was Cargo was Cargo. Still looking forward to the Pathologic Remake, shame you can't buy the Void anymore, that was their best game game.

Counter point to Invisible Inc: I really like sRPGs and I thought Invisible Inc was super boring. I did play on normal difficulty I think and I've heard that makes the game really awful because it makes lethal skills seems useless, and apparently they are not. I guess my recommendation is to play on hard and don't listen to the game's advice to start on a low difficulty to learn the rules. Some day I should give it another shot on hard I suppose.
