Yakuza 0 is amazeballz but maybe you are too lame for it. Such people exist be vigilant

I'm getting the urge to pick something up, since my backlog is down to only the second half or so of Yakuza 0 and Okami HD. Help me choose! -Nioh, combat looks like its got more depth than most Souls games. I loved BB but found DS3 a real drag until the very end/dlc areas -Monster Hunter World, looks fun and can play with friends -Shadow of the Colossus, never played the original -PerSona Vita, mostly for playing P4, P3, P4D....etc. It costs more than the previous three combined but I really loved P5.

Nioh is real good but after 15-20 hrs i was really bored and it keeps going Mhw is real good but after 30-50 hrs i was really bored and its supposed to be awesome for hundreds of hrs according to its accolytes. Sotc is real good but its also loving frustrating as a first timer with no nostalgia I have a vita, p4g is real good but you might get away fine emulating the ps2 version free.

All of these games own, my only point of discrimination is whether you want a ten or one hundred hour game when choosing SOTC vs Nioh/MHW. Also Nioh is probably cheap these days?

JBP posted:All of these games own, my only point of discrimination is whether you want a ten or one hundred hour game when choosing SOTC vs Nioh/MHW. Hm, I'm overseas and find its more reliable to just use PSN to download stuff, and Nioh hasn't been on sale since November I think. Not sure about time. I spent 100 hours on my first playthrough of P5 but it was a breathless "I can't wait to see what happens next" atmosphere that didn't ever really feel like it outstayed its welcome. The most recent game I played was Hellblade which a pretty short but nice experience I knocked out in a few hours over a couple nights. They were both really enjoyable despite radically different playtimes. I guess it depends on whether the hundred hours are full of meaningful or new content. Is there enough variety in Nioh or Monster Hunter to keep it fresh over that period?

I've played at least 70 hours of Nioh and MHW has killed any intention of playing SOTC for now. I like grindy games if the core gameplay is tight and both Nioh and MHW are loads of fun to play with great variety in weapons and enemies (people might argue Nioh enemies aren't that varied but the bosses are all pretty awesome). However on the story front Nioh is light on and MHW only has a story to keep you proceeding towards another monster hunt. They are both pretty hard to begin with, but once you gear up and learn the machanics you can enjoy many hours of unadulterated violence against a seemingly never ending stream of new demons or monsters.

Achmed Jones posted:The spike that knocked me out was a boss fight. The boss would have a color-coded shield to tell you what attack to use. The colors were something like red/orange/green. That’s kind of a no-go when you’re colorblind. TBH I probably still wouldn’t have been able to beat that guy though, I got decent-ish at getting the right color (better than chance, iirc), but even then it was way too hard lmao came here to post this, good grief Glad I’m not the only one bad at video games. I eventually got it but yeah that was sucked

Lady Maria is my new Tachibana Muneshige in that it is a perfect duel, no gimmicks, I know how to beat her and it is just up to my slow-rear end reflexes holding up enough to string together enough hits to win. Up to 25 deaths and counting. Also I am reminded that vials loving suck

The only frustrating part of Guacamelee is the hidden dungeon IMHO. I thought the story mode was perfectly balanced. And defeating the dungeon felt good! Re: Bloodborne. The first area took me a good while, but after that it's smooth sailing, except for the castle and DLC which are hard as balls (but the best part of the game) . And the final boss is pretty difficult. Renoistic fucked around with this message at 06:56 on Feb 20, 2018 |

Up to 25 deaths and counting. Maria is a knock-out showdown street fight brawl in the clock tower. It just feels right, and peak bloodborne. Wish she was easier to refight. Farming blood vials endgame: go to mergo's loft middle and kill the shades and piggies between the lantern and the boss and buy vials with the echoes

Up to 40 deaths so far. I think I'm going to call it for now and sleep on it before fatigue just makes things worse. I could probably summon for help but just like Tachibana Muneshige, I'm really enjoying this fight and want to prove to myself that I can do it on my own

Lady Maria is one of the best fights in games and I wish more Soulsborne bosses were just really flashy duels. Not that I don't love giant horrible monstrosities as well. Also loved the DS3 dual boss version of her with the giant chasing you around, but it was drat hard and I had to summon someone to beat it.

Maria can be chain parried, or if you suck at parrying, you can stunlock her with the Augur of Ebrietas and she has no way to escape.

I'm close to beating Dishonored 2 and the game got a lot better once I got near the later levels. They throw some pretty cool and neat gimmicks in. Overall, it's a solid game. I plan on getting the dlc.

I would recommend Shadow of the Colossus because it's a beautiful little game that can be completed in under 10 hours with satisfaction and all the rest of those options, including the ones you haven't finished, are all at least 50+ hour forevergames.

codenameFANGIO posted:I feel like there have been like 8 “best metroidvania ever” candidates in the last two years, they keep coming out and people keep loving them apparently P4 is better than P5 in some ways, and worse in others. P5 has a ton of problems, but I love its visual style and music (4 does have great music though), the dungeons for the most part and also the fact that it has negotiation. It just gets too railroad-y/expositiony for its own good sometimes (4 does also, just maybe not to the same extent). irlZaphod fucked around with this message at 12:18 on Feb 20, 2018 |
