Mad Max is loving fun. One thing I love is that they have Arkham style melee combat. However, Max is not an expert martial artist. If you block a strike coming to your back, Max will just clench up and do his best to absorb the blow. It's feels very realistic and desperate.

In Warframe there are 3 basic damage types: Slash, puncture and impact. The first bow weapon did high puncture damage that would pin space pirates to the wall. Later, they released one that did mostly slash. Its arrows would slice people in two and easily decapitate even the big guys. What I like is that the arrow head isn't a point, it's a fanned blade.

Ravenfood posted:Similarly, I like games that don't have a set inversion for controllers but have a tutorial that says "okay, look up" without telling you whether forward or backward on the stick is "up" and sets your inversion to that setting since its what feels natural to the player. I can't think of one off the top of my head, but I know I played one or two that way. The first Halo did that. Pretty drat clever.

RagnarokAngel posted:Fallout 4 really outdid itself compared to past Bethesda games when it comes to the idle animations. I was in a factory earlier and once we cleared the place out Piper leaned on one of the guard rails and looked around, it all looks really neat. Preston, whiny little rear end in a top hat that he is, will do his best to get out of your way. If you go into a shop or something he will post up outside sometimes and make sure the wall stays up with his back. Yeah, I know all the humanoid ones do that but he just looks so good with his basic outfit.

FO4: I always play these games as a sneaky thief type. Once running doesn't affect stealth, it becomes exceptionally easy. One new thing I like is that enemies that see you but then lose track of you will fire a little bit into your last known location. Of course a paranoid raider would take probing shots into the woods. This is a very neat effect but imagine my surprise when one did it carrying a Fat Man

McDragon posted:It took me a while to figure out how power works in settlements, and I'm still not entirely sure I've got it completely, but I managed to stick a disco ball over the top of my Power Armor crafting thing. For most if the lights, they just need a nearby conduit. Individual bulbs don't have to be wired. I'll post some shots later but I decided to move my operation to Starlight Drive-In. I've circled the entire thing with junk fences, have a huge farm, plenty of turrets (with surprisingly good range), and a gate to let in my caravans. The jewel of the setup is the gate that funnels raiders through a serpentine hallway to slow them down and then are forced to exit into an open-air plaza with turrets on top pointing down. It's a lovely little kill box. If any of them manage to escape, a laser tripwire sets off a siren that makes every settler rush to the forward position and take cover. Now, if only I got attacked more often... Guys, Fallout 4 is really good.

Around The Fens there is plenty of random fighting so cars routinely explode. A patrolling BoS until will gently caress up a whole city block just to kill one mutant. I love it. I stumbled across the ship town because a Brotherhood unit pissed off a Raider that ran there for cover. Two huge hulks rain laser death at the entrance (while Valentine tries his best  ) and proceed to stomp across the narrow floating bridge. They get about half-way and fall off. I just see a stream of bubbles and thought they died.Nope, they are walking across the ocean floor grumbling about raiders.

Some may hate the idea but I LOVE that generic containers and unclaimed areas respawn enemies. In the SE there is the Culp (?) Manor house that you can claim. In the front there is a cement pedestal that just begs for a suit of Power Armor as a statue (and thats what ive done). Once the BoS roll into town, there is almost always a fight between them and Super Mutants near the house. Easy pickings for miniguns and laser weapons. On the other side of the gate there is an Assultron and a Mr. Gutsy that poo poo out valuable components. I swing by that place every now and then. It does piss me off that it's next to the water but the boundary is so close that you can't use a large water purifier.

Because VATS now just slows down time, the chace-to-hit updates as they move. Knowing the big bad is rushing out of cover, you can pop VATS and line up your shots just as his head comes into view. Makes me feel like a John Woo character. Same goes for shooting grenades. You can't wait forever so you still need good reflexes. There is a perk where, after tagging materials for search, it will highlight items that have that component. This also applies to containers even if they are locked. However, I missed out on a couple things because I got too conditioned to only pick up the stuff that was highlighted.

muscles like this? posted:You have to highlight a person and then there will be a thing on the bottom of the screen that tells you what button to press to create a trade route. And trade routes are simpler than you may imagine. If every settlement feeds into Sanctuary Hills, they will all share resources. No need to make a big circuit.

Just Cause 3 Been toying around with the physics engine. Tied a car front and back to two polls, stood on top, retracted the lines and detached at the apex to send myself and the car skywards like a slingshot. We fly up and up and up... And then turn over. Rico lands head first into the pavement and the car smashes him back into the ground. He stands up and exclaims,  "Another perfect parking job"

Only a few handfuls of copies were made and ran notoriously bad. That being said, the senerio resolution where Phoebe admits that she needs music lessons but, to afford them, must surrender her body to medical research was inspired. It's was like a one person Gift of The Magi.

I was hoping the the invasion mechanic in Dying Light meant you took over one of the specials in another players game BUT it seems like you just spawn in and a sub-game of killing hives plays out instead. It's still fun but 1/2 of the time the humans will run to a safehouse and log out.

Tsunemori posted:It's pretty funny because in the previous games, moving things wasn't counted as an action, so you could actually move things out of someone's sight and then steal them without getting caught. That Mr. Handy is a special case. Once you fix the programming, he doesn't care. It's just that each store has some little gimmick. You can still shove all sorts of poo poo around and steal it.

I brought this point up with some friends that I play games with and I think it applies here: If you are playing a game like D&D, you are at the mercy of the dice for better or worse. If you roll like poo poo during a session, your Cleric is going to get messed up and you're going to have to adjust. I view video games the same way. Unless I know it's a bullshit fake choice, I will accept failure and roll with it. If I flub an attack or piss off a character by saying something they don't like (this is not saying something "wrong") then I will try something else. I don't k ow of any video game where you can fail a random chance and not be able to beat the game. it may be insensitive but anyone that complains about "suboptimal play" is always autistic. The biggest difference is that a tabletop allows for more choice and variety.
