Escobarbarian posted:Oh boy I sure do love when I get to a really exciting story area where I really really want to see what comes next and then come across a terrifyingly accurate enemy with ridiculous health who can dodge your levitation attacks (the dump) Most of the flying enemies have a little cooldown on their dodge. They'll dodge the first projectile, but you can usually get two more in immediately after.

MechaSeinfeld posted:I never played Origins, did it go back to the smaller scale area of Asylum? City was like, too big in a weird way for me. No, they took the City map, and added a new piece of equal size, with an incredibly long bridge between them. There's a fast-travel system, at least.

Don't worry about it too much. You'll revisit every area eventually, if not for the main story than for side missions. You can keep playing after you finish the story anyway.

Lobok posted:I'm liking Control so far but I don't think it's a game I can play for long in a single session because the constant noise and chanting gets pretty grating. So far I'm really impressed with the damage effects and the persistence of the damge. Echoing what others have said about this game and others, I really wish you could listen to audio logs while on the move instead of being rooted to one spot or stuck in the menu. The chanting is much less prominent once you get away from Central Executive.

TLoU is a game where the tough, capable protagonist guns down loads of baddies. That said, it's about as misery-porn as is possible within the confines of the genre. You should play it some day, but if you're looking for something uplifting, keep looking.

veni veni veni posted:I trust that Outer Wilds is actually good since so many people seem to love it, but after playing it for about an hour last night I was so annoyed with the controls, overwhelmed by all of the gadgets which I have no idea how to use, and the overall total lack of direction that I just quit out of frustration. landed on some "giant storm(?)" planet after overshooting it for 15 minutes, and just got bounced around like a pinball, finally landed, put a rock into a rock shaped hole, couldn't figure out what to do, went to another spot, and the water rose and swept my ship away and I just gave up. All the gadgets are explained by the villagers at the start. You need to talk to everyone and take your time. It's annoying, but it saves you frustration in the long run. For navigating in space: remember that the fastest way to travel to a planet is to accelarate towards it until the halfway point, then decelerate for the second half of the journey; you'll run out of momentum as you arrive. Make sure to lock onto your destination, it makes all this stuff easier. Alternatively, just use the autopilot, it works in most situations. If in doubt, hold down the match-velocity button, it's basically a brake. When you put a rock in a rock-shaped hole, it either makes words appear on the attached wall, or it does something special that only works if you're standing right next to it. In general, slow down, keep calm, and pay attention to your surroundings.

Alright, the last console I owned was a PS2, but my new roommate has a PS4. I'm planning on picking up Bloodborne and Spiderman, for starters. Anything I should know going in? It looks like it's just the basic release model, could there be problems with storage/performance?

I've been playing Bloodborne for the first time lately. Actually I haven't played in about two weeks, I beat Rom and got to the Unseen Village, and I've kind of stalled. Those coffin-Nitos are real fuckers. I've spent most of the game relying on the saw spear, but it's recently been supplanted by my new best friend, the Tonitrus. Just unreal damage.

I gave up on AC: Odyssey about fifty hours in. The combat's so frustrating; every enemy is a health sponge, and you need to wail on them for like thirty seconds just to kill one. Avoiding damage through dodges and parries is pretty easy, but the special enemies (cultists, commanders, above-average mercs) can kill you in about three hits, so you just can't afford to screw up, ever. Combat in AC: Origins was fun all the way through, and I went out of my way to enable level scaling to keep it challenging. Odyssey made me avoid combat, not because it was dangerous, but because it was boring.

Well, I finally got through Yahargul. Didn't beat the three horsemen, but I think I did everything else. The One Reborn was one of the easier bosses; beat it on my third try, which was the first one in which I noticed the stairs up to all those witches. I've explored a bit of the lecture building; stumbled my way into the Nightmare of Mensis, made it to the frenzy tower, and then turned around and went back to the lecture hall.

Imhotep posted:But yeah, I want to go back and attempt Obra Dinn again, but I feel like I'm just straight up too dumb for it. I got to a bit where you see the possibly titular obra dinn attack and it's pretty amazing looking, but I felt like I'd inceptioned into other murders and was 9 deep and wasn't sure if I actually had solved any of them. I'm a bit intimidated of trying again and getting to the end of all of the causes of death and finding out I got half of them incorrect, and only half of their names correct, or whatever. Maybe the game does a bit more to guide you than that, but it didn't seem like it would. A lot of the time, it's impossible to solve a death completely the first time you see it. You're expected to view scenes multiple times. The game can be completed with zero guessing, of course, but there's no shame in a few educated guesses here and there.

My favourite thing about Outer Wilds is that if you told me before I started that you get to talk to an alien at one point, I'd go "That's cool". But when it actually happens in the game, it's the biggest thing ever, it's this terrifying, reverent event. They build it up so nicely, in a way that feels feels effortless.

The plans for the PS5 were transmitted to earth by some intelligence out among the stars. We don't understand the mechanisms within, and we don't know what will happen when we turn it on, but we'll find out soon.

RatHat posted:Any tips for a first time Outer Wilds player? I know about the time resetting gimmick, is that pretty much all I need to know? -Do ALL the tutorials in the starting village. A lot of your equipment has multiple uses, and if you don't know about them you'll run into a lot of frustration down the line. -Hit the trackpad button to open the map. I know this is odd to mention, but I've watched a couple LPs of this, and it's weirdly common for people to forget the map exists. -If you get frustrated in one area, just go somewhere else. Every question has an answer somewhere, you just haven't found it yet. Also, you don't need to 100% every area to finish the game. -The fastest way to travel somewhere in space is to accelerate til you hit the halfway point, then accelerate backwards for the second half of the journey.

Arist posted:One thing I don't really love about NuGoW is the insistence on just like, directly mapping the original trilogy's stance on the gods onto the Norse figures (like Odin really just seems to be shaping up to be Zeus again) and turning them all into psychopathic assholes. Kratos faces off against the notion that, I dunno, I'm not saying that there's a God, but there's just gotta be SOMETHING out there, man, there can't be nothing. It looks like an ogre.

Deathloop looked kind of bad, but it was a short action-packed trailer, I'm hopeful that the final product will be as good as Prey. We barely saw any of that Jett game, but I'm into it. Ratchet and Clank seems like the only game that tried to show off the quick-loading aspect of the whole thing. Anyway, an hourlong series of three-minute trailers really limits what they can show, I really prefer when there's a mix of trailers and proper gameplay looks. Ah, well.

Video for my fellow PSPoor-users: TLoU 2 runs about equally well on both the Pro and the base model. Minor dips in the parts with lots of water, and also in some sections they can't talk about or show yet, presumably when the game tries to model the fluid dynamics of a giant pile of dead dogs.

Anyone who consumes a work of media should be isolated for two weeks afterwards so they can establish their own opinion in seclusion. They must then write up their thoughts, and a permanent record of this essay will be created, available to the public. Then, whenever they talk about the work, people can compare the current opinion to the recorded one, and determine whether they're being genuine or parrotting something they heard. I'm only barely joking edit: also I reckon that part of the Ubisoft open-world game template which people don't often talk about is Far Cry 2. That game was incredibly frustrating and unfriendly, and the cloying textureless convenience of the later Far Crys (and rear end Creeds, and so on) is a reaction to people's problems with that game.

veni veni veni posted:I wouldn't. It does seem a bit tough at first, but it doesn't take long to get in the groove with the combat, and the game starts throwing really powerful abilities at you quickly. In a few hours you'll laugh at yourself for thinking the early game was hard. To me, on normal at least it had a nice balance of slightly challenging but not too much. Still wanna go back and play on hard soon. Yeah, I'd second this. I really struggled early on (at whatever the medium difficulty's called), but I just stuck with it and now I actually prefer the combat to that of the Arkham games, to my shock.
