Triarii posted:If you want me to get excited about a western game you're gonna have to get weird with it. Have a shaman grant me ghost wolf powers or have mad scientists inventing crazy gadgets or something. Otherwise it's just a shooter with three guns, against human enemies with the same three guns, plus maybe grenades reskinned as dynamite. It never made much of a splash but Hard West was an xcom-style tactics game set in the weird west and it slapped. As well as equipment, you could equip a hand of up to five playing cards. Each had their own effect, but if you made a specific poker hand with them they gave you an extra bonus.

The health mechanics were really cool as well. You had your actual hp, and then Luck, which was akin to a shield. Getting "hit" would deplete luck, and when you ran out you took HP damage and got a refresh of Luck. Hp damage was pretty serious and hard to heal.

I love that Monster Hunter World depicts a monster being poisoned by having it froth purple at the mouth. It's the perfect level of visible: not overpowering and distracting or taking away from the design, but exactly noticeable enough for you to see it and take pride in it.

Yeah it's a very visually busy game but they manage to signpost status effects nicely.

As of today, FF14 finally joins WoW and SWTOR in MMOs where a raid boss includes fighting on train tracks and dodging incoming trains as part of the boss's mechanics. Choo choo motherfuckers.

I didn't find the Lego Lord of the Rings Mithril Disco Phial until I have almost 100%ed the game but I'm glad I did https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQ7tn3r8ro0 I love that if you swap characters your new minifig will also dance.

If I were still in high school when that game came out that song would have gone on my iPod so fast.
