they are rather nice words, any who insist otherwise might want to ask themselves why words that popularly refer to women's genitalia are disgusting for some reason

I say bums.

Also bums to defiled amygdala. I went through the lorian chalice and beat both the new blood starved beast (first time) and abhorrent beast (that was tough, 6 tries) but defiled amy I died another 20 times to.

I am mostly having trouble with the camera and being able to see her arms moving to hit me. That is a tough fight indeed.

If you're using the cleaver still then I'd advise the extended 2H overhead swings for that fight. You can also try to stay right beneath, time your dodge for right when it does the jump smash, and hit the head when it's low. Defiled Amy is a very annoying fight unless you have a ranged option.

e.g. you wouldn't hear an American call a man a "oval office"

I hear it all the time, actually, but attempting to insult someone by pejoratively invoking femininity is deeply counter-intuitive and nihilistic iyam. Historically, the way nearly all language has been used in the US is deeply misogynistic, there's just no getting around that besides confronting it. Putting forward one –ultimate– word that denotes femininity as vile, gross, or taboo (as is the normal tactic of suppression in American culture) simply serves to highlight our ridiculous puritanism.

Whenever people say "50GB patch!" it just means the game is rebuilding the entire file library instead of grafting some fixes on. It doesn't literally add 50GB of new data to your install. Somehow this still manages to confound people even though it's been commonplace for the last 10 years.

The CDPR devs tweeted that yes there is a mandatory patch for the broken street versions, but that patch is not actually the retail release day 1 patch that everyone will be getting, that patch will be out... on release day.

this game is a loving trainwreck

acksplode posted:

What the hell is this poo poo. It's the version of the game printed on the discs people are buying with their money, sounds like a commercial release to me. If CDPR didn't want people to encounter this version of the game and be judged by it then they shouldn't have loving printed it onto a bazillion discs and sold them

This certainly seems like the first time in recent memory where a dev has been allowed to delay a game after it came out. Like, there oughtta be a law, ya know?

Oh yeah, that game where random textures don't load. Sure would have been a shame if they fixed that with a day 1 patch.

FF7R has more polish than just about any game released in the last decade. The reason people obsessively focus on a low quality door texture that you see twice is because it stands out in comparison to the near universal high quality of the rest of the game. Additionally, any post talking trash about FF7R gets a pre-emptive gently caress You from this beanpole

Most Japanese games also have day 1 updates. Goons are just perpetually stuck in 2008. Nothing works like that anymore.

Actually, I do think it's important to hold these companies to a higher standard of quality rather than be deluded by massive marketing campaigns into being thankful for buying fully-priced unfinished products out of some fear that we'll all just look like retrograde grandpas denying the reality of natural commerce.

Bust Rodd posted:

I dunno, I’m not really trying to shitpost in bad faith, I genuinely think Sushi Ghost is the prettiest and most colorful game on the PS4, and I thought The Last of Us 2 was graphically more impressive. I played all 3 games on a PS4Pro I don’t know if that makes a difference or not to the way they are received.

In general the character designs and the skyboxes and the Night Market were really cool and interesting, but otherwisethe entire game of FF7R takes place in some sewers, a junkyard, and some gray hallways in an office building and you just run up and down these extremely linear hallways fighting like maybe 5-6 different types of very silly little monsters or Corpo-Cops.

Also I don’t think you can realistically or fairly call FF7R a “complete game” in the same sense you can call Ghost or TLoU2 a complete game because it is literally the first episode of a series of episodic installments. it is by definition an incomplete product, it’s literally the first level and the first act of a much larger story.

Also The Last Guardian took a very similar timetable to Cyberpunk in terms of announced/delayed/eventually released... but TLG runs abysmally on the machines it was designed for, so I’m not sure how that is a point in favor against CDPR and not for it.

I love 2LOU, and it is in fact the best looking game out there by a mile, but it is less of a complete game experience than FF7R imo; for my money Factions was 65% or more of the TLOU experience and it's outright missing from the package, whereas FF7R managed to deliver on 23 years of accrued angst, hype, superfandom, and nostalgic expectation. That is worth some recognition.

Anyways, I hate comparing the two...and I'm not sure why we're doing it because I love them both, but my point is that FF7R successfully launched without a patch, during a pandemic, and in an extremely complete state...and that's a miracle of modern game development.

And yeah this does have review in the URL, but it doesn’t really read like one or make it clear that it is, in addition to mentioning the same two things, the promotional art with the trans model, and the tweet with the lovely ‘did you just assume their gender’ joke, but nothing about the actual game in the first few paragraphs-

Jeff G is a curmudgeon, sure, and it's entertaining to see him bitch about how he can't find out where to go in nuDeS because it involves a bit more patience than aiming down sight and fragging, but I appreciate his particular stance on the more insufferable bullshit in the industry.
