Also the Avatar Project timer is largely inconsequential, you have to completely ignore doing anything for months for it to fill up and after it fills up there is an additional extremely long grace period to finally do something. Also in the DLC there are side missions which level your soldiers up and reduce the timer at the same time, which at that point you have to actively choose to lose Also Dark Events are countered by doing Guerrilla Ops so that's another thing you have to actively choose to ignore to suffer penalties and if you are ignoring all these things what are you actually playing at this point

beep by grandpa posted:Are you trollin. Sure they "could have" but how many 3d real-time action ps1 games can you think of that had this many systems? Consider how new 3D programming was at the time of the ps1 and gaming in general and why anyone would be crazy enough to cram so many systems in addition to such a big jump into a game in like 1998.

I don’t feel like Nier: A gets enough praise on the combat animations + effects. It feels really good and adds so much to the gameplay.

Is Dragon's Crown Pro worth the rather large £44.99 on PS4 if you already played the original release back on PS3, does it add anything new outside of graphical upgrades like new characters and stages?

It's the exact same game. You can play online with people who have the PS3 or vita version and it even shares achievements. If you dropped it before they patched in the infinite dungeon made up of randomly arranged rooms from all the stages then I guess that would be new for you.

Akuma posted:Friend are you aware of the insane PC games that existed in the mid-90s like Daggerfall? Systems like the ones you’re talking about aren’t hardware intensive they’re constrained by a designer’s vision. I still enjoy the elder scrolls series, but I always thought it would have been a better series if they had kept improving on the systems in place for daggerfall. Not being able to create super powerful spells that break the game is a real bummer.

What's the deal with PS4's follower system? I've been uploading Diamond Cup runs of Rayman Legends so I assume it's tied to that somehow but every time I open my console "you have 4 new followers!" "you have 7 new followers!" "New guy is following you!" I have no idea what that actually means

I'm really liking AssCreed Origins but one thing about it is kind of pissing me off. It's been pretty hard for me so far which I don't mind, but since the game checkpoints once every 15 seconds I feel like whenever I die I miss the opportunity to try things again because it keeps everything you've done. I keep accidentally scumming locations because I sneak in, assassinate someone, then get caught and get killed, then I respawn outside the location with the quest completed. This is probably good for people who don't want to beat their heads against the wall, but since I do it's pissing me off.

I assume you're assassinating the main guy(s) then since there were several camps I had to completely re-do because I died before killing them but after killing dozens of guards.

Lobok posted:I assume you're assassinating the main guy(s) then since there were several camps I had to completely re-do because I died before killing them but after killing dozens of guards. It varies but yeah, it's the most annoying to me after I complete an objective which is usually to assassinate the main guy. It's a weird thing to be annoyed by, but it is kind of robbing me of any sense of accomplishment because the game just goes "Well you did it I guess" and reloads back outside. I thought Dying Light's death penalty was kind of lovely but this goes way too far in the other direction. I feel like if you wanted you could just run in and complete objectives one at a time and then commit suicide by guard and there's no penalty. I'm still enjoying the game though! I just wish instead of autosaving almost constantly the game would save at the start of a quest and then let you really restart it if you want to. Even the "reload last checkpoint" option lets you keep all the objectives you've cleared like lost treasures, killed captains, etc.

I still can't work put what the combat system expects me to do other than mash O and occasionally hit square but its such a lovely world and maybe the best looking game on ps4. There's a surprising amount of depth in the Royal weapons, each of which has its own moveset (and one that mixes together a bunch of them).

Quantum of Phallus posted:CQC and the pressure sensitive controls stuff in 3 sucks tremendous balls It's sort of part of the Kojima sense of idiosyncrasy tho. Like, he arbitrarily decided that the player should have to hold down 3 different buttons AND move the stick in MGS1 in order to run with your gun aimed. His reason was that running while aiming is difficult IRL so it should be difficult on a controller. I can't help but respect the hubris behind such ballbusting design. exquisite tea posted:Fortunately Naughty Dog brought us two far more memorable PSX icons, Man with Gun and Bearded Man with Gun.
