exquisite tea posted:Jennifer Hale is in literally everything, it's just rarely for a leading role. Her VA credits are a mile long. She can also do more than one voice as well. From cute kid (whatever character(s) she plays on My Little Pony) to normal voice (The Hex Girls form Scooby Doo!) to hardass/badass (FemShep). Speaking of the Hex Girls Jennifer Hale can also sing quite well. Disappointed there was no karaoke minigame in Mass Effect.

Now I'm reminiscing about that one publicity stunt where they sent a few pre-release 360 copies of ME3 up on weather balloons over various cities and sent people scrambling for them wherever they landed Ahhh, those were the days Cross-Section fucked around with this message at 23:45 on Feb 21, 2021 |

Jennifer Hale had a time where if you asked anyone who had any reason to know VA's to name a woman voice actor, she would be the first name off their lips. That's way outside the scope of anime/vidyagame nerddom, too - she was everywhere and on the short list for anything that required voice acting in basically the entire english speaking sphere.

exquisite tea posted:That's untrue about Outer Worlds, it was written primarily by Boyarsky & Cain which is probably why it comes off as mostly out-of-touch and middling in its satire. yeah pretty much. i think some of it works and i enjoy the universe but weirdly enough it felt like it was too idk grounded. like it wants to be verhoven with how stupid and hosed up some of the poo poo is, but it doesn't have the bite. like yeah its mostly saterizing the idea of "well what if the progressive era/trust busting never happened and the company paternalistic ideal won the day and the economic left basically died in the gilded age" its an interesting concept but the game needed way more quest depth and writing bite to handle it best. Cross-Section posted:Now I'm reminiscing about that one publicity stunt where they sent a few pre-release 360 copies of ME3 up on weather balloons over various cities and sent people scrambling for them wherever they landed i sorta miss dumb poo poo like that. i miss being super hyped for games but than the duel stabs of ME3 and Cyberpunk(not a bad game at all but witcher 3 2.0 it aint) kinda ruined that for me.

Pennsylvanian posted:The only way you can tell the difference between a male or female PC in Dark Souls is the walking animation. I think there's a few sets in Bloodborne that change depending on your gender, most noticeably the Yarnham Hunter set, but they all stick to the hosed up victorian vibe pretty well.

So long as there is hype, there will be disappointment from overhyping. I don't think I've heard much about 2077 as an actual game though, it's all been a bunch of bugs and technical issues, which is the most understandable flaw in the business, and games that are extremely buggy at release will often get fixed in a few months. A bad story will usually be broke forever. ME3 is a pretty fun game mechanically too, which is why it's a shame that all the writing is about everything in the galaxy dying, your character dealing with a lot of weird obtuse emotions about the one and only time they ever saw a child, and some dumbass NPC beating your rear end constantly in unskippable cutscenes. I don't think I even felt motivated enough to go through with the final mission on my one playthrough, I'm really gonna have to go back and play that and the DLC someday. The economic model of Mass Effect is also garbage, because it went really hard on slicing out interesting stories and characters to put in the DLC, and my Cerberus Network codes did not work for some bullshit reason. That's another reason why I play games long after they've been out, because then you can grab an edition that just includes all the DLC for less than a hundred bucks.

The best way to do Mass Effect 3 is to create a save just before priority Earth, get the “perfect ending” if you can but it’s fine if you don’t, finish the game, then load that save file and do the Citadel DLC so the big party can be the final little bit.

I'm playing with a mod that cuts immediately from shepard losing consciousness on the citadel (hackett calls to say that the crucible isn't firing) to the perfect ending, and then after credits drops you into the citadel dlc. Worked perfectly and I never even had to talk to the starchild

Yeah, my understanding of Cyberpunk 2077 is that it's a fine game. CD Projeckt is just absolutely terrible at optics Re: a lot of things, and the game was functionally unplayable at launch and is now literally unplayable (as in, you cannot buy the game) on 2/3rds of the launch systems. There's a subset of my friend group who swear that the game is awesome but they played it on Stadia, which was apparently stable at launch for various reasons.

I'd call it more unacceptable than unplayable. A lot of people have finished it on PlayStation, and even loved it, but that's in spite of its abysmal technical state. I really liked it, despite all that, but recognize it's a flawed game even when it's running okay.

Soylent Pudding posted:Which mod is that? Extended Cut to Citadel DLC. The other version is Citadel Epilogue Mod which needs to be paired with one of the various ending mods and removes basically all references to the Reapers, Cerberus, and the war from the dialog to better sell the idea that Citadel is in fact set post-ME3.

It's great, because either he's lying and thus is evil, or he's telling the truth and thus is incompetent, and in either case it means you gotta basically steal all his poo poo, spend his money and never give him anything and you don't ever have to feel bad about it.

It probably crashed every 4-5 hours, averaged out over my play time. Not ideal, but it wasn’t an incredible momentum killer. Regular auto-saves and very fast loading helped a lot in that regard.
