Well I was interested in the other ones but the season pass/premium thing always put me off (lootboxes too but I think they were cosmetic stuff only in BF so w/e)

Being an internet shitposter means the goalpost is strapped to your back. History is less important than being right.

The next Battlefield should be about the Haitian revolution except you only play as Louverture.

I love how Reggie is a permanent part of Haitian history and excellence. Among all these people, political figures, entertainers and even spiritual leaders. And then right there among the second group is the Father of the Bigfoot Pizza himself.

If you wouldn't bestow your country's highest honor to the pizza man, what the gently caress good is it?

Drakengard update:

Endings B and D attained, but I am still clueless how I’m supposed to beat the boss in under 4:20 for ending C.

Sakurazuka was right though. I definitely wasn’t ready for how weird this is getting.

I mean, (B ending) giant monster princess who shanks the whiny bard I can handle. Hell, I even approve of it! But (D ending) giant space babies being spewed from a featureless pregnant woman who puts an octuplets’ baby bump to absolute shame, and they straight up loving eat everyone except one character? Ok. Yeah. That was loving weird.

I don't remember having much trouble getting ending C but one of the weapons you need for the final ending is also on a time limit and is an absolute fucker.

It’s not a hard fight but getting enough opportunities to do damage quickly is a real pain. My best right now is 11 minutes just because he dodges through everything except during one or two specific attacks. :saddowns:

On console at least, everything I've heard indicates yes. Blighttown is apparently a smooth 60fps now

It's steady 60fps the whole time, though weirdly I got some framedrops in New Londo, it was either just a random hiccup or I had 20 ghosts following me.

Samet thing happened to me. Happened as I was climbing a ladder as ghosts were ghosting me IIRC.

Best advice I was ever given?

"Ticker, you'll be a lot happier once you stop caring about the opinions of a culture that is beneath you."

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

Opened my eyes.

Far Cry 2 is really technically competent with a lot of great details but it is an absolute bore. It's crazy how much work was put into literally everything except gameplay. It was MGS5 like 6 years prior.

Far Cry 2 is a rad game that cuts right to the good stuff, diamonds aside. The convoy missions were amazing and the fire tech was fantastic. The buddy system is something I wish more people ripped off.
