What, in that he's incredibly boring and almost devoid of character? I never found anything particularly off-putting about playing as Rochelle aside from that her quotes weren't nearly as fun as anyone else's.

Sloppy posted:How is Forced? It looks like some really fun local co-op but the 72 Metacritic rating and the fact that almost nobody on my friends list has played it makes me dubious. Last time I checked, the netcode was pretty lovely. For a game that's all about positioning, timing, and precision, many players found it to be a fairly inexcusable flaw in an otherwise very enjoyable game.

I thought there was only one Claptrap left in Borderlands 2, but that was a fairly recent development in the timeline. There are probably tons of Claptraps in 1.5, just like there were in BL1.

Palpek posted:L4D2[...] You really need good friends to even start enjoying the game. Personally, my main problem with the campaign is that there's such a huge gap between the difficulties. On Easy, pretty much everything does 1 damage to you. As soon as you step it up to Normal for a bit more of a challenge, though, scrub hordes get ramped up to something like 5 damage per hit. Even just that tiny jump takes the game from "insultingly easy" to "ugh, okay guys, for the twentieth loving time." (The peak difficulty sees you dying in five hits which, on a bad day, can happen in under as many seconds) When you're winning, it's fantastically fun. When you're on a losing streak, though, either from the RNG or because you aren't familiar enough with the map yet? That's some bad times.

Max Wilco posted:Mercenary Kings is on sale for $9.99. I've heard conflicting opinions about it. Is it worth picking up? I understand that it's not like the Metal Slug games. Baltazar Robotnik posted:Ive found it loving boring. Like aggresively boring. A shame because it looks rad and isnt a bad idea for a video game.  . I liked it. I also only ever played it co-op with my friends. Your buddies being there can change your opinion of a game entirely, even if the gameplay is still the same, or even lovely.It's basically Monster Hunter in a Contra interface. There's a lot of running the same stages a bunch of times so you can grind for materials, so due to the random nature of the game, you might be there for a very long time. Great animations, fun to run around in, but in terms of why you run the stages, gets stale quickly.

Enslaved: yea or nay? I've always had a cursory interest in it, but I've also heard extremely mixed things--primarily that it blows its load too early and has a crappy back half. Is there any merit to that, is it just people being overly critical about something, or does it get kinda stale even though it's still nice to look at?

SolidSnakesBandana posted:Reminds me of Fallout: New Vegas. You can just say "gently caress you" to everyone and take over yourself. How do you not do that on your first playthrough? It's too tempting. Because you killed the guy who murders the outpost early in the game (thereby irreversibly tanking your standing in the faction) and really, really want those Lucky Sunglasses in the Legion Safehouse. And also weren't playing the PC version where you can just spawn the key

A couple years later I built a computer, brought Gannon and Boone with me on a rampage through the Legion encampment, and spawned a key to get my prize  I should pick it up again, it's been a couple years more. Never finished it, but then, I find that I rarely do with those open-world titles. I just get sidetracked and then I feel like I've forgotten everything else that's going on.

Kibayasu posted:Every dungeon in Fallout New Vegas had a self-contained story and a unique piece of loot and there were more locations than Fallout 3. I think where the latter half of this design falls apart is that a lot of that loot is really hard to see (or bugs out and falls through the geometry). I like it when NPCs give me skill books or permanent stat boosts for helping them out! Not so much when I need to dig through a ton of junk items and maybe the issue of Milsurp Review at the bottom didn't get thrown through the roof from being on the bottom of a pile of items in the Gamebryo engine.

Kulkasha posted:What's urbodys opinion on Edge of Space? Is it more polished than starbound? Let's put it this way: I bought it on Desura, never got a Steam key, and the dev puts more effort into the goddamn "HI ARK-CO-NAUTS!!!!" "news" emails that contain more lore than they do "so this is happening with the game" than s/he does into developing the actual game. The game itself is essentially unplayable. At the moment, it's still in the Jumping Simulator phase despite having been in development for, what, three, four years now and on the market for two? Apparently there's tons of internet meme poo poo like Saoshyant says, but I'd be surprised if you even bothered to put enough time into the unwieldy thing get far enough to see any of it. Also, it's choppy on my computer that runs Assassins Creed 4 at 50+ FPS on nearly max settings, so there's that, too.

Dick Fagballzson posted:I never finished it, but I thought that what I played of SR3 was hilarious and fun. I was also suprised by how good it was for something that came packed with the humble bundle and cost next to nothing. So I guess SR4 is a no-brainer. Torchlight II actually sounds a bit meh. I think I may go for South Park at $13 instead. You gotta remember that SR3's low bundle price was kind of a sinking ship thing for THQ. It didn't save 'em, but they were at least able to offer really good games for really low prices to the consumers' benefit.

Anonymous Robot posted:I'd also like to know what the deal is here. How to Survive is $1.50 good. It's not particularly interesting, but I guess it's reasonably fun. It doesn't hold your hand and it drops some gently caress-yous into the new player's lap, but it runs out of tricks really quickly. Once you know the best recipes (fruit + bottled water for healing, bows or hydraulic guns, and something to stave off exhaustion), the challenge gets sucked right out. Bring a friend: I did, and I imagine it would be kind of unbearably boring with just one player. Also, the victory screen is funny the first time you see it, but then you realize that it's the same thing for every mission because animating road sign stick-figures is hard(?). You're getting your money's worth at this price, but I'm not kidding when I say it's worth every cent and not one more. Fur20 fucked around with this message at 10:49 on Dec 21, 2014 |

Some other guy has been posting about it the past few days, but allow me to give a glowing recommendation for Dungeon of the Endless. It's "FTL crew combat meets mystery dungeon roguelike meets tower defense meets online co-op for up to four players." It's great fun managing your party and resources and you really start getting into building and exploration strategies, My only complaint is with its underdeveloped multiplayer. Don't get me wrong: it's fun and all the issues I take with it are things the devs have said they want to address, but not being able to save in an honestly quite marathonny game or private lobbies and drop-in gameplay are all glaring feature to leave out.

Alien Rope Burn posted:Ha ha, as if there was only one fatal flaw with Mercenary Kings. Yeah, you just fuckin' craft everything, because that game is just a grindy ride over systemic speed bumps. Did you bring a buddy? Mercenary Kings is tedious because you're running the same, what, six to eights stages over and over. With some friends, though, everyone kinda brings their own playstyle and most people won't consider the same gun to be the most effective one. It's not really an intended consequence, but you get lots of enjoyable moments like, drat motherfucker, what kinda gun is THAT? But then I guess "basically hanging out with your bros except online" isn't really a good defense if it isn't your game's core conceit. Me, I liked it, but I can also understand why it's also very easy to dislike.

Zombie Samurai posted:Pretty good isometric action game. My opinion is pretty much the opposite of this, it's fun the first time you fire it up, but the gameplay feels a little sluggish with extremely clunky menus. The first time you start a game, it's exciting and you don't know what components will make which recipes, but once you figure them out, the wonder is all gone. My buddy and I couldn't stand to do more than half the challenges before getting tired of it, and we're the sorts of players who tend to receive even the worst games quite well as long as there's some nice co-op. It didn't help that the first challenge mission is the most interesting one, and the ones after it all seem to be in a weird "half the features are locked out and this probably should've been a tutorial" limbo.
