Nostalgia4Dogges posted:But lol I couldn’t think of a better woven portrayal of GOW & Norse poo poo. I mean, you can just ride around in a boat for hours listening to a severed head telling ya Norse stories Wait are you talking about God of War or AC Valhalla? You can ride around on a boat and chill in God of War? It's Norse not Greek? I knew none of these things.

Nostalgia4Dogges posted:y’all defended Dad of War better than I could have, ty ty ive never even played it hahahahahaha asscreedO is fine on the history stuff. There's a fair few deep cuts but since you gotta dig a lot deeper to cut like that most everyone is spelled out pretty good. Of course if you don't actually know anything about the classical era, it might escape your notice that everyone slightly eyerolling every time sokrates opens his mouth is period-accurate. You know, as just a minor example.

BeanpolePeckerwood posted:Tried it. No dice. BeanpolePeckerwood posted:I'm out of action. I have no idea what's going on. I guess I'll try to grab an external and throw my PS4 games on it before I reset the whole system and reinstall firmware. Even then I'll still need to download an absurdly huge update file for monhun. Gonna be a few days at least until I figure this out. BeanpolePeckerwood posted:

I think they held back a little too much on gods to kill in 2018. One bigger name would have made me happy but we are prolly getting a feast in ragnarok

BeanpolePeckerwood posted:If they were real locations then it would feel very weird and 'quaint' to be able to walk from the highest heights all the way to the lower depths in under 10 minutes. The interconnectedness is very spiffy from a coding persepctive and it's obvious they spent a ton of time on it, but if anything it makes everthing feel far more 'gamey' than imagining that the world is huge because you have to teleport between distant shrines. There's a suspension of disbelief in DS1 that just isn't running properly for me, the world can never be larger than life for me because unfortunately all I can think about is...how everything is so close to everything else...so how can anything feel secret? I disagree, as long as you're having to use elevators and poo poo why shouldn't you be able to quickly change altitude? The world still takes a considerably long time to traverse before you get the Lordvessel. "You want a fire weapon? Have fun walking all the way from Anor Londo to the Catacombs" That may take 10 minutes if you speedrun and know the path, but plenty of players could spend HOURS making that trek. And if anything, that's the game's greatest feature. It FEELS like a massive, huge world, from the lowest lows to the highest highs, and the fact that it doesn't take 10 hours to walk across is very convenient as long as it still feels large, which I guess for me and Cardio it is, but I guess for you not so much.

FallenGod posted:It'll probably be like every other RT game where people swear the shadows and GI are photo realistic and it turns out the only thing being ray traced is the occasional puddle reflection. I mean from a purely black box user experience it is hard to tell the difference between ray-traced GI and hand-placed GI depending upon how good the hands are that do the placing. But most games cheap out and only do the reflections because full ray-traced GI is hard work to make perform well.

gotta say I did not expect to get sucked back into the Kulve Taroth Siege again in Iceborne, but hot drat that is still some good rear end content. I really like that they updated it with some new moves and now there are multiple ways to play the quest, because the El Dorado caverns are sweet and KT is a dope idea for a mon. Still haven't beaten the MR Slay KT quest yet but I'm working on it. Also the MR Kulve armor is dope and it even has jiggle physics! I love this game. It might make my SA GOTY for a third time.

Yeah, it's sort of semi-open world, and you spend a fair amount of time in a boat. Some of the best dialogue in the game is Kratos telling allegorical stories of his own past ("There was… a horse. The horse sought vengeance upon his enemy, a stag..." etc.). Alot of them are really funny.

Soysaucebeast posted:Man is anyone else having issues syncing their trophies? I started playing Control about a week or so ago (holy poo poo how did I sleep on this one? It is entirely my jam) and ever since then trophies just will not sync. It gives me error NP-103374-8 but as far as I can tell that's just a generic code. Googling just showed some reddit posts having the same issue with Persona Strikers but then it magically starts working after a day or two. This has persisted for me through multiple complete reboots, logging in and out of my account, disconnecting and reconnecting from the internet, playing a different game, and swapping users. It's weird though because on the PlayStation app and my boyfriends account it shows the proper trophies, so I think it is syncing? I dunno it's odd. PSN has had some issues for about the last 36 hours (https://status.playstation.com/). Several games I have been playing aren't able to connect to servers, and I had issues when I was trying to sync trophies yesterday, so it could be that?

Demand is still incredibly high and will be worse by the end of the year, there are supply issues because of COVID. Your best bet is probably in the summer?

Someone ITT was saying that there is like a certain component or chipset that is very expensive and time consuming to produce and that will effectively bottleneck PS5 console production, but I haven’t the faintest idea how real that is.

Its been a long time I mean I get that, but on multiple occasions we 4 peeps and I just think the damage threshold is much higher on the Slay quest, not to mention she can 1shot you with most attacks. Back in the original siege she very rarely escaped in phase 2. I don't get it

My no shield, rollman dark souls 3 run lasted until Pontiff Sullivan when I was reminded that shields do indeed, own. That dude has no respect for iframes but you can just block him and walk around and stab him in the rear end so easy. Shield on my back from here on out. I'm not scrambling from arrows or trying to squeeze into 20 hit combos anymore. You can just slap your sword on my shield and I'll stab you in dick when it staggers you as god intended. Blessed shield. E: Also anor londo is still impossible to go 2 minutes without getting invaded. Just annoyed the absolute gently caress out of some pvp lord for 20 straight minutes because I was extremely not in the mood to get invaded and I'm running a PVE build, so I just made him waste items on me forever. Made sure he ran out of resin and that anti estus potion before I let him do me in. veni veni veni fucked around with this message at 07:32 on Feb 28, 2021 |
