JollyBoyJohn posted:I've not heard of that one but it sounds worth checking out Most of the game consists of Ken and Batts farting around in some dusty little town and doing stuff like eating at restaurants and playing arcade games. There's also weird poo poo like Ken becoming the manager of a casino. They quite litterally took the framework of Yakuza 0 and slapped FotNS over it and it works. There's a demo on PS4.

I'm playing Yakuza Kiwami here and there, after playing the Yakuza FOTNS and the combat is so much slower and nobodies heads explode so I can see why someone would say the FOTNS is the best Yakuza.

I'm probably gonna catch some poo poo for this one. The way Battlefield 5 did female soldiers is actually pretty loving funny. I can't bring myself to care about it because it's just a video game but when you boot up the game and it's playing some somber "saving private ryan" music with a squad of all lady soldiers, decked out in full WW2 grunt gear staring determinedly into the distance, the imagery just looks funny. BF1 also had lady soldiers but used some loose historical context for it and it worked fine and no one cared, and Dice didn't act like they deserved a pat on the back for it. I can honestly see why it rubbed people the wrong way in BF5. The way they handled it was just all around corny. That said, the dudes who lost their poo poo/are still losing their poo poo over it are absolute morons, so I kind of hate having this opinion and have never expressed it previously because of that. Overall it's cool/good/fine they added lady soldiers into military shooters, but I just think this one specific instance handled it in a way that came off as kind of dumb. And it's not even because I demand "realism" or anything, or even have a problem with there being female troops in the game. They just kind of slam you over the head with it without any grace in a way that sort of made my eyes roll.

I'm still butthurt that we were told we were getting a video game about WW2 that would celebrate women on the front lines and the amount of video games with the Night Witches or Mariya Oktyabrskaya is still somehow zero.

Battlefield has had a real problem with tonal dissonance lately, gender thing aside. It's been trying to have a ~serious war drama~ vibe, and be Cool Commando Fun Time and you really can't mix those two feelings together well. The way they implemented female soldiers is just an extension of that.

Agreed. That's one of the many reasons why Bad Company 2 was the best one. Lately Battlefield just seems to have a big identity crisis. And it also stopped trying to be fun.

A game where you can jump out of a plane, shoot another plane with a bazooka then land back in your original plane and keep flying should never, ever try to do anything serious.

Mariya Oktyabrskaya - wikipedia posted:After her husband was killed fighting in 1941, Oktyabrskaya sold her possessions to donate a tank for the war effort, and requested that she be allowed to drive it. drat, that's cool. Way to rip off cool history valkyria chronicles. It also seems she was a mad woman who ditched her tank to repair the tracks mid battle. Repetedly. That is some serious dead spouse vengeance.

I still haven't seen Endgame so in my head the end of Infinity War was actually the conclusion of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Finally a satisfying conclusion to a franchise.

as much as I love the new hitman games (a lot, just so, so much) i don't think i will ever SASO a level outside of something small like an escalation because that seems like it would be more frustrating than fun

Doing SASO for escalations is probably harder since you can't save as often as you want like you can in missions. Some levels like Thailand are a pain in the rear end for SASO, but still doable. For the most part it's just knowing how to do an accident kill for your targets, and then figuring out how you can sneak around guards. A fun challenge if you're in to it, but also not necessary to enjoy the game.

The big rumor is that bad company 3 will be the next one but I don’t have enough faith in Dice these days that it will actually matter. They themselves have said they don’t understand why people like it so much and I definitely believe them.

It's almost always in reference to something they dislike. So I have to ask: what games do the chuds enjoy? Are they all Call of Duty bros calling people gay slurs on xbox live? Are they all playing Paradox games and just coincidentally putting in a lot of time as Germany and/or crusaders? 4000 hours in Skyrim after a trip to lovers lab? What is Chud Gaming like???

So I have to ask: what games do the chuds enjoy? They're the ones buying anime titty games, but yes they also really like call of duty and super like games with fascist elements like Hearts of Iron and basically anything with space marines in them. I've even seen dudes on the Frostpunk subreddit say unironic Nazi poo poo and self-identify as Nazis, so I guess they get to the end of the Order path and are like "why is the game pretending like I did a bad thing?"

So basically oorah patriotic games and things were you get to guide/represent an authoritarian government. Makes sense I suppose. I don't buy the anime titty argument though. I'm sure some of them do play them, and while it's funny to say all those games are just chud candy, it's also a little too convenient. I bet there's lonely dudes of all stripes who are into that.

I think they can see you a bit so you can lure them over to you but if they get to the stage that they are asking you to follow them out of the area that's too much.

The dual pistols at the bottom left of your screen turn red if you've been spotted doing something illegal or if you kill someone who isnt a target then you just need to not switch out of your suit..
