Also if you play the games now you are going to have zero clue what the gently caress he's talking about, because Gex games are specific to the day and date of their release.

it seems like everyone says to use the Marine in enter the gungeon while you get used to the game but i think the convict is way better, starting with a molotov and shotgun is a lot better than 1 point of armor and better accuracy

the shotgun literally isn't worth the slot in your inventory it takes, it's completely worthless as a weapon other than to feed to a muncher or sell for casings.

The thing that worries me is that because Horizon was outsold by at least one other game then video game executives will see that as "You see? Non buff-white-dude protagonists just don't sell." I also assume they ignore the things Nintendo does because Nintendo is its own little world.

I mean, we've had plenty of examples of female leads and non white dude leads, it's just that games companies have become so incredibly risk-averse that things that would have flown back in the day suddenly don't anymore.

I know it'd never happen but I'd love to see some more well known game podcasts just put out an all-politics episode where they talk about how hosed things are right now. It's very easy to get stuck inside a bubble of distraction and be insulated from the dire state things are in.

Invictus I like you but video game people should under no circumstances be allowed to talk about politics.

Comments for salt. As a big MH fan who has a 3DS and a PS4, I am totally fine with a next gen Monster Hunter. X was really good but it was time for a shake-up.

http://www.vg247.com/2017/06/15/segas-wishlist-for-pc-releases-has-all-the-same-games-as-yours-including-yakuza-and-persona/

quote:

Asked by PC Gamer what it might bring next, and specifically whether Yakuza and Persona are inbound, Sega Europe’s John Clark hinted that the publisher agrees with you on what it should do next.

“If I asked you to write me a list of ten games you want Sega to bring out on PC, it probably isn’t any different from the list [we have],” he said.

“If you send [your] list over I’ll tell you which ones we can tick, which ones are on our list, which ones are possibilities, which ones are not possibilities, which ones we’ve talked about, which ones we’re talking about, which ones we’re working on, you know, they’ll be on that list.”

Clark said specifically that Yakuza is on Sega’s list and that the publisher is talking about bringing it to PC, and “of course” so is Persona.

I'd loving kill to be able to play persona.

I mean, it's Yakuza. the hostess clubs are a Japanese thing, and Yakuza as a series is EXTREMELY Japanese. At some point you have to ask whether you have an issue with the game, or with the culture it's showing.

Destiny made a lot money welcome to the world of 'games as a service'.

The worst part is probably that sales have been hurt by it. A lot of games have gone from "buy during a sale" to "skip completely" because by the time the price is down the playerbase has abandoned the game for something else and you're left with an empty game filled with loot boxes. I'm expecting pubg to hit that soon.
