CJacobs posted:Heres your cjacobs update for the day, gamers. Currently at the doctors office, they have heard me out about. They symptoms and think I might be having gallstones or possibly an ulcer. So that guy that said dark souls gave me an ulcer might have been technically right lol I hate to break it to you, but I'm a doctor for real and the only way to beat your mental illness or whatever is to keep playing Doom games for the rest of your life.

bloodychill posted:He's a decent actor who just happens to pick some really awful movies to be in. That end of the world thing where everything froze was maybe the worst and has also been a touchstone for the dumbest climate change denyers. Huh? But that entire lovely movie was predicated on climate change being real.

Guy Mann posted:I really wish Prisoners found an audience the way that Source Code and Nightcrawler did, it's an amazing (ly brutal) movie and Roger Deakins did the cinematography for it and does some amazing stuff in it. Uh, I haven't watched it but apparently it made triple its budget at the box office and got nominated for a whole slew of cinematography awards, including an Oscar.

Love Stole the Day posted:The past 5~10 E3 conventions have been garbage. I don't know why people are still excited for it unless you're going there irl for the experience, like as a tourist attraction. We just pretend to like it to piss you off. Hell, that's the whole reason the convention's still going on.

I thought the reason they didn't release XCOM 2 on consoles in the first place was because nobody bought the first game on PS3/360?

Erata posted:Well I guess you can't talk about horror games and stuff without bringing up Frictional Games and Amnesia and Soma. BUT. My favorite thing from their history was a little bit of trivia they revealed at some GDC talk I can't remember what year it was off the top of my head. I kind of ruined Amnesia for myself. I was hiding and freaking out when the monsters first showed up but then I decided, "ah gently caress it", charged right at it, saw it's freaky face, died, and went "oh, freaky, but now I know what it is." Plus dying kind of made me realize that there was no penalty for suiciding against them and could actually be convenient. Great game though, incredibly atmospheric. I even liked A Machine for Pigs for what it was, but I can easily see why people were dissapointed with it. It's not very scary outside of the industrial environment and they actually removed a lot of the gameplay elements the first game had. Haven't played Soma yet, though I look forward to it.

CJacobs posted:I think I've figured out what bugs me about Mighty #9's visuals. The foreground doesn't stand out enough from the background imo, so instead of looking like 2.5D it just looks like a 3D game that you can only walk on two axes of for some reason. I know technically that's what 2.5D is, but I don't really like the look of games that don't differentiate the area you move around in from what's just set dressing. The foreground and the background in that video are comprised of the same grey, silver, brown/green colors. That and the fx look like placeholder art.

Oh weird, Treyarch did that? Honestly didn't realize they were that old, I guess I just figured they were always part of the Activision/COD smorgasbord.

CODtalk got me googling and it's apparently still consistently the highest-selling franchise every year, even when it underperforms, so don't expect it to go away anytime soon.

CJacobs posted:I find it strange that it's the first time call of duty is doing something interesting and new for the series in a very long time It also used an awful Space Oddity cover not long enough after Bowie's death. Also I've gotta disagree in that it looks like it's doing the exact same stuff as any other COD game but in space.

CJacobs posted:Literally any other setting is better than World War 2 or Generic War Happening In The Desert at this point. I am ok with space. Well I'm with you there. Spacewar is bestwar. But outside of the delineated spaceship sequences, everything they've shown of the singleplayer looks like it ultimately plays like any other COD campaign, which is cool if you're into that. I guess they haven't shown anything of the PVP but this'll be the third game with mantling and doublejumping, so even that's not so new to the series. End of the day, I just don't like the way the series's multiplayer is so I'll be playing the much less popular Titanfall 2 instead. I recently got back into the first game after a year and I'm finding it a huge amount of fun.

ethanol posted:Please elaborate on why you don't like the series multiplayer and why titanfall solves this for you I am very interested Assuming you're not being fascetious... Part of it is the slightly higher TTK, part of it is the "kitchen-sink" approach (everyone can simultaneously carry two anti-infantry guns, one AV weapon, grenades, cloaking devices, Hack-Knife[tm], and, of course, a Titan), most of it is the map design. Titanfall's maps are fairly large--smaller than Battlefield's but getting there--and open, and you can get just about anywhere with enough mantling, jumping and wallrunning. Whenever I've played the latter-day COD games I've just felt constrained, I guess. Plus Titanfall seems to embrace its sci-fi silliness more, what with its variety of energy guns, giant robots, and smaller, enthusiastically saluting robots.

Snak posted:Yeah, I mean I think that MN9 looks like garbage. But that said, it's important to remember that making things is hard. And just because something didn't turn out looking very good (I say looking, because I haven't played it), doesn't mean that the people who worked on it didn't work very hard on it with the best of intentions. This is stupid. If you're creating a product for consumers, the onus isn't on the buyer to follow the product's entire developement lifecycle and all its trial's and tribulations. If the end result is garbage, then nothing you did before matters. It's the same in any other industry.

Macaluso posted:As someone who likes Jim Sterling and his videos, I feel like his voice is just too distinctive to really work in a voice acting role. There's never gonna be a situation where I hear his voice and be able to hear the character instead of Jim Sterling. No interest in the game but they really shouldn't have hired non-voice actors to voice act. Dan Ryckert's a treasure and all, but he sounds terrible.

CJacobs posted:Doesn't the room after the brutal kill tutorial lead to an elevator cutscene which cuts to the Doom logo after Doomguy punches a monitor? I am wondering if Palpek thought that was the end of the demo. I think you get two arena areas in the demo. It's fun but still really short and I wish they'd given you a later level as well to show how the game really ramps up. I mean, I just bought the game in the Steam sale but still.
