A centipede made out of other enemies and whenever you beat one the others behind it would fall off and start roaming the stage making it a pain in the rear end to kill the boss because you'd either have to stop and kill the others while the boss did its thing, or try to ignore them while killing the boss. So it should be like that. You mean Centipede?

HaB posted:At least there's a lore reason for the boss recolor - he and the other 2 are all brothers. DemonBros. You think the statue guys look like ballsacks? I always called them turd demons. They look like poop. Good choice. Dying light is mediocre. The gameplay's ok, but the storyline is loving stupid.

In most instances of a boss like that you have to kill every bit of it, your description suggests that just killing the head or dealing enough damage overall would be enough. Is there anything like that?

I still need to grab final mix plus or whatever the HD re-release of the second one is so I can play the bonus content in English because the bosses were really fun.

I know it's not exactly a "Horror" game except for the fact you flee in terror from a muscle man with no pants as he casually walks through explosives that would instant kill you. But "Breakdown" on original Xbox had some serious First Person View going. Doing spinning high kicks, backflips and side rolls? Guess what happens to your camera! So I'm sure that it would cause a lot of people to puke just as much as the first person barfing scene. Does anybody know offhand how many "first person melee" games have your camera anchored to your face to that degree?

GTA V does that when you're rolling around or falling in first person. It's pretty disorientating.

Like honestly I don't get sick from 3D video games but holy poo poo that stuff gives me a headache. Fun fact: realism is not the ideal in video games, it's perfectly okay to step away from reality if it makes the game better. To make up for it though, karma gave me the "gets sick after 5 minutes in a motorized vehicle" perk so I guess it balances out. vv

I don't know about a melee FP game, but the original Jet-Moto allowed a true FP mode. We raced that game so much on split screen it became the ultimate challenge to beat each other in first-person mode. The reason it was so bad is you do all kinds of tricks in the game for boost, and the big ones involve flips, barrel rolls, or some combination of the two. Some of the giant trick jumps gave time to do three at once. If that wasn't bad enough, all the terrain was uneven, so you were bouncing constantly on waves, rocks, sand, etc. (Worst level for bounce was the glacier, just bouncing on Broken ice.) The game also had a grapple mechanic that allowed for extremely fast and tight turns. The last two levels require constant boost to not fall and die. (Along with that, the track had loop-the-loops and upside-down sections.) It was both awesome and vomit-inducing, we could only do a few races at a time before we had to take a break.

aardwolf posted:Could you be getting motion sickness? I've found that lots of games with a small default field-of-view make me want to vomit (I'm looking at you Half Life 2 ) and digging in to the options or configuration files to change that really helps. A quick google search says Skyrim's default is about 65, a lot lower than the standard of 90, so that might be an issue Oh it's definitely motion sickness. I meant I don't know why some engines are fine and some aren't. Usually for PC games I can adjust View Bob and FOV and make it somewhat better but I still haven't found a catch-all solution that just fixes it. I game primarily on console now anyway, and they usually don't have anywhere near as many options for adjusting.

I cannot imagine for a second this is going to work for anything other than a music video clip length of time. There's a song called Bad Mother Fucker by Biting Elbows that I'm pretty sure is from the same people (at least it's the same level of Russian cheesiness) that is about as much first-person as you'd ever want. edit: yep, same people. It's going to get really old, really quick.
