FoolyCharged posted:I dunno, the regenerative armor was good and meant you never got stuck going into a fight where a stiff breeze kills you. Thing is that between regen armour and health packs, it's actually not a bad idea to have both since it gives you a safety net but you still have reason to push forward

Regenerating health just means the developers dont have to spend as much time making sure that a battle is balanced.

WILDTURKEY101 posted:Is there anywhere to get these games on PC? Unfortunately nope, because the rights to NOLF are stuck in IP hell through numerous acquisitions. The first game was published by Fox Interactive, who was bought by Vivendi who was acquired by Activision. NOLF 2 was published by Sierra, which was also owned by Vivendi. But maybe the IP is owned by the original developer Monolith who was purchased by Warner Bros. No one really knows and apparently there's not enough interest to work it out, which is really sad because a HD remake of the NOLF games would be so cool... or at least a GOG release.

While I know Civ6 isn’t a great game, it’s free on Epic Games. Not free to play, free forever. Looks like they previously offered GTA5 for free. My unpopular opinion: Epic Games good??

3D Megadoodoo posted:Oh no this corporation is competing ( It's not really healthy competing though. There is a difference between competing by providing a better product (they aren't) and competing by choking other companies out through sheer volume of cash. Purchasing exclusivity is not the same as being a better store front. I'm all for watching Steam burn to the ground at this point, but let's not act like Epic is some sort of savior disrupting the status quo. I can promise you that once Epic becomes the store to beat they'll start loving over devs and users some just like Valve.

he’s right though, it’s pretty hard to just “be better” for a storefront app (and yet somehow both the epic games launcher and GOG galaxy are far better than steam anyway) epic pays developers more so idk where all this handwringing about not being “healthy” comes from either. boo hoo you need to click a different storefront for some games if you want them the second they come out, lmao that you wrote all those words about it like a console warrior on the playground though

i am having a tremendously fun time with w101 so far, it’s like a ridiculous bombastic low-budget action cartoon from 2007 i can definitely see why opinions are very split on it, though. it reminds me kinda of a cross between astral chain and nier:a but way more overtly goofy and fun and self-aware it has the platinum games specialty or tons of useful poo poo in the shop and no reasonable income to get most of it for ages, though. at least the block and dodge moves are like one coin each (as opposed to 10,000 for everything else) so you know they’re worth grabbing literally the second the store opens

Civ 4 was the last good civ game, since it was the last one that let you have ten thousand troops occupy one tile and sweep your opponents aside effortlessly.
