i still have the original Unreal Tournament installed, i put it on every new computer. i love to boot up a match and kill some bots. no other shooter seemed as fun after, so i just keep playing Unreal Tournament. its fine, with mutators there is an endless variety.

This is really sad actually

Telltale Games are stupid and don't really have good writing and their game engine is hot garbage that makes Gamebryo look stable and QuickTime events are awful

Counter claim: Tales from the Borderlands is both very good and the best entry in the franchise.

When you want to look up in real life you tilt your head back. When you want to look down you tilt your head forward. Same deal with a mouse to look in a video game. I CANNOT UNDERSTAND HOW ANYONE CAN DO IT ANY OTHER WAY I CAN'T. I don't judge you for it, but it is absolutely bizarre to me. It feels so, so wrong. Invert forever.

You don't "tilt your head back" you idiot, you lift your eyes to look up

Additionally, in my quest for Good Gaming Experiences, I always turn ON subtitles for all games and turn OFF vibrations at the account level.

The witcher 3 setting is so loving generic and I can't stand Gerald's always raspy voice

video games peaked on the PC during the period of pixel and voxel isometric rpgs and RTS games. This period died with the release of warcraft 3, a lovely terrible loving game that birthed the mods and culture that would render the RTS genre to a bunch of lovely dota clones, tower defense games, and the kind of trash like Dawn Of War 2 and CoH 2 that tryhards worship and nobody else, and with knights of the old republic, replacing cool isometric RPGs with lovely 3D third person bioware trash and its imitators.

I strongly agree although DoW2 was good?

For some people even a little anime is too much, unless it's Zelda which somehow gets a pass with most.

The irony is that Aria of Sorrow--one of the most anime ones with Dracula's castle in Japan and the super anime protag--has a rather bitching gameplay system where you collect abilities in random drops from enemies in 3 slots, and adjust your stats/weaponry accordingly. Symphony of the Night is still the best because of how bloated, broken, and unwieldy it is.

Unpopular opinion: Braid sucked. Any platformer with clone/rewind mechanics suck. Incidentally I've always loving hated P-Blocks in Mario.

Braid loving sucked, that's unpopular ? I thought it was generally accepted

They won't be able to do 4k at decent frame rates anyway. A Geforce 1080 struggles with 4k at 60 frames per second with all the bells and whistles turned on in AAA games. Even a 1080 ti or a Titan can only come close to a steady 60 frames per second.

I can't max out GTA V at 1080p, even with 2 1080s Ti... I guess I'm CPU limited?

I really hate how indie games have taken over steam. The steam store is pure poo poo for me. I have to spend a lot of time evaluating games on my queue to get better recommendations, but it feels like wading through a swamp of crap.

Indie, early access, multiplayer horror based game with a female protagonist.... gahhh, gently caress you

There's some great indie games, like INSIDE, but mostly it looks like crap.

I think not having EA really hurts Steam.

In short: Steam isn't cool to me anymore, and I've thought it was amazing and good since 2004 or whenever the HL2 launched

Edit: I guess I like AAA games more than indies, which is a popular opinion. But in truth I loved "B+" games, yknow?

I try to avoid looking at advertisements anyway so that's good, imo.

loving hippie

I sort of agree though, which is why I say I liked those "B+" games. The middles of the road, those small teams within a big corp that dare to try something different but still have an "ok" budget, not the pauper indies that do an 8bit game over a year.

Games like Mirrors Edge or Remember Me, Vampire:The Masquerade, feels like these games are mostly gone today.

It's either FUCKALL 200 MILLION DOLLAR PROJECT or "coding this while living in my car".
