Ineffiable posted:Yeah you're right, Mario is gonna run away with the switches this holiday season. It's actually good destiny can get out soon. And star wars battlefront is probably gonna score lots of sales with the shooter crowd. I'd wager it'll lead into a second run of Breath of the Wild sales going too, just for it being the Christmas/Holiday season and being the other BIG Game on the Switch.

That's a high price, TBH, and I bought them all at full price. $60 for the base game and $20 each for each DLC. You should be able to get a better deal in the future.

I'd say definitely start with the base game. I played Dark Souls 3 but didn't like it nearly as much as BB so I never bought the DLC. Also compared to BB, the DkS3 dlc doesn't seem to connect very well to the story leaving more questions unanswered. Old Hunters shows what happened to the characters mentioned in the main game and the origins of the plot. This poo poo is good stuff. DkS3 dlc is.... I don't know honestly despite reading about it WaltherFeng fucked around with this message at 04:43 on Sep 1, 2017 |

Manatee Cannon posted:the dlc is good and you should get it if you buy the base game, but if it's actually an extra $30 where you're shopping then don't buy it. you'll save money if you get the base version for $20 and then buy the dlc separately for another $20 When I say 'extra $30', I just mean that the Game of the Year release is $49.99 on Amazon, while most of the stores I've gone just have the standalone version for $20. I actually haven't seen many physical copies of GOTY edition.

Bloodborne dlc is essential. You'd get off cheapest buying a used copy and the dlc on Psn. Probably $40 total. DS3 DLC is also (maybe slightly less) essential imo but if you pay $107 for all of it you are getting totally robbed. Even at launch the game+season pass came out to $85 so I'm confused on where you got that number unless you are not talking US dollars. All in you should be able to score DS3 and it's dlc for less than $60 now. Edit: I think I figured it out. You are looking at the game which is still inexplicably $60 on Psn, along with the season pass and separate DLCs, but the season pass contains both of those so they are redundant. So everything would be $85 Tldr there is a complete edition out on disc and it's $40 brand new . My $60 estimate was high. This is where digital sucks. veni veni veni fucked around with this message at 05:03 on Sep 1, 2017 |

8-Bit Scholar posted:While the platforming was not great, and Monstro is a pretty confusing dungeon, I still want some element of exploration to remain. I liked going around Traverse Town finding all the hidden treasures and stuff; I enjoyed discovering that Wonderland had multiple ways you could flip that one room, which made a small seeming level appear much larger. Exploring Agrabah was cool; it all needed slightly better design and some more fluid movement mechanics (a double jump would help a lot) but I felt that part was just as important as the combat, and when it was rendered so anemic by KH2 I was really let down. Echoing this, KH1 had a nice amount of exploration to do and secrets to find, while KH2 really just had series of arenas for 90% of its levels.

I'm pretty sure I got DS3 plus all the other poo poo for $70. It's worth getting, but it's no bloodborne. I finished it, felt satisfied and enjoyed it, then I played bloodborne.

So do we know whether the white Pro has revised hardware? There is a 300€ offer on pros right now and I am this close to grabbing one. I wouldn't want to miss out on a revised version though, if there are any benefits.

I haven't beaten it yet, but I wish Downwell was somehow longer, kinda like how Binding of Isaac gives you incentives to beat it multiple times. I'm addicted.

Most of everything that happens outside of an actual game of golf, apart from maybe the character creator, is dumb as hell. Agreed. The actual golfing is solid and fun like always, and the presentation is nicely laid back and feel good. All the new additions are mostly pointless.

They've always hat repeated buildings, but Syndicate took it to the extreme. Like if you'd played the earlier ones a lot I don't see how you can ignore all of that stuff and dismiss it as being "iterative" like, for example, Unity was to Black Flag, or Brotherhood was to 2. There was a lot of new stuff there, probably more than 3->4.

Akuma posted:Syndicate was a pretty decent revamp of the controls and systems, if you played all the others it felt quite different from the very beginning because the controls were very different, the stealth mechanics were different, the two characters had different strengths (and slightly different mechanics,) the base that was constantly moving around the map where you'd go to pick up missions was unlike anything before it, missions that took place entirely within very vertical buildings that were just like batman predator challenges were different... I haven't played Unity, but never felt any of these tiny changes had any kind of significant impact on the gameplay. Except for the grappling hook, maybe.

Mr. Fortitude posted:It's why people remember Aeris as the "innocent cute flower girl" and Tifa as the "Flirtatious childhood friend" when their characters are closer to the exact opposite of that. I finished the game last week and you're going to have to spell out exactly what their characters actually are for me because exact opposite to flower girl is what exactly?? Also I burned through ff7 skipping every random battle & only using the health cheat when I looked like I was in trouble. I also used 3x speed a little but only for some bits of dialogue or long sprints. got a bunch of level 4 limit breaks, did most of the side stuff I remember and I managed to finish the game in a hair over 16 hours. First time round I remember that taking me over 80. Amazing how much padding is in the random battles and needing to grind before bosses.
