If I'm reading this MGSV message correctly, by not having PS+ I can be invaded but can't in turn invade others or protect my FOBs? Is there basically any point to having the FOB feature (rather, staying online), then? Cause I'm never going to get PS+.

CJacobs posted:It greatly increases your available storage for materials and development points or whatever they're called, and some extremely late-game equipment costs more than you can actually even store with an offline-only save. Which is ridiculous and stupid but it doesn't matter in the slightest so feel free to ignore it.

CJacobs posted:You actually are in that situation, yes. You can be invaded but you can't take any of the retaliation or defense steps. Guess I can just hope that most people have stopped playing MGSV at this point.

CJacobs posted:It does put that stuff up, yeah, but it's all borderline useless unless you have super high grade S-tier soldiers or whathaveyou that can just annihilate people before they can even move. The real way to stop people is to defend the base yourself in person... which you can't do, so all your stuff is gonna get jacked. Have fun! This game got kind of dumb real fast!

The last fighting game I bought was Soul Calibur II on the Gamecube, because it had Link in it.

Actually I think I bought Divekick when it came out and played it for about 5 minutes, so that's my last fighting game.

I got stuck on the fat boss (I think it was the second one) in Little King's Story. But having compared what I did play of that to Ys Origin, it's Ys Origin without a second thought.

I like Tropical Freeze I just think it's way too hard for its own good more often than not, especially parts that felt very much designed to force you to have a partner which meant as soon as you died (which obviously was going to happen) it'd get 100x times harder.

I just want IGA to be able to make games again. For what it's worth at least the impressions from people who have actually gotten to play it at E3 and the judges panels seem to like it a lot, including Jeff Gerstmann who is insanely jaded and cynical about everything.

I've felt that when all the cards are on the table, Order of Ecclesia is my favorite Castlevania. SotN is an amazing game but there is so much god drat bloat and it's just an overall rather rough experience to revisit, most notably in the difficutly department where clearly they had not figured out how to scale enemies with the new leveling system to not make everything a joke in the second half. OoE has the best overall challenge and gameplay of the rest, with even the bonus of not having the medicore art of Dawn/Portrait. In the end I love all of the IGAvanias except for Harmony but OoE will always be my #1. But that said the reasons I like those games and other, traditional Castlevanias are so far apart that I feel it's a lot more fair to categorize them as such. For the other set my favorite has to be Rondo of Blood.

And with that, having finished MGS5, I've now completed every main MGS game (1-4, GZ, TPP, and PW) on top of watching LPs of the MSX games, all of which was for the first time with the weird exception of MGS2 which I played when it first came out. The top three are insanely easy for me to rank: 3>2>1. MGS3 was a joyful experience which was a distillation of the sneaking gameplay while also having a cool setting/story and lots of fun/quirky Easter eggs. As for the rest, I don't know. I feel like I could make an argument for PW, 5, or 4 as being the worst games. 4 has the worst story of the lot, but it did have some of the most memorable set pieces like the Rex vs. Ray fight. 5's "plot" was profoundly unsatisfying but the gameplay was way better than PW and it's not like PW's story was blowing the doors off either. But PW also doesn't have the ridiculous and tedious bloat that 5 has. It took some 2 years but I can finally close the book on that effort, finally.

I would youtube Rex vs. Ray, Old Snake vs. Ocelot, and maybe the graveyard scene from 4 at least. I'm honestly not sure what PW and 5 brought to the table in the end, other than usually being kind of fun to play. Basically everything actually relevant to bridging the gap from 3 to original Metal Gear is relegated to the last batch of cassette tapes you get after finishing the final story mission.

In Training posted:I get why a lot of people were bummed that V had "less" story or whatever, but A) I love the narrative of V and think the cutscenes are some of the best in the series and a remarkably restrained MG game (especially coming off of 4) and B) if it had 0 cutscenes I wouldn't care because I still played it for 120+ hours to 100% and did it again with a PC mod to make every mission in Subsistence mode. Well I didn't 100% it again but I played through most of it again

Also what was the point of putting fast travel points in bases that require you to sneak to reach them, but can't actually use them if enemies are in alert, and if you do use them you can't actually move because you're of course surrounded by dudes in the next base.

Then don't make me have to get around the map to do all kinds of Side Ops, the alternate being waste a poo poo ton of GMP to just call in the helicopter constantly. At least in Africa you can just drive everywhere.

Ys II is a lot better than the first game, but that's a weird case where the sequel is basically just the second half of one thing, to the point where it's generally always sold as Ys I&II.

This is the most rolleyesin', rear end in a top hat way to look at this, but I'm cool with not having one of these minis or a VC on the Switch since at this point if I wanted to play one of those games I'd just do so on my RGB-modded consoles. The only notable exception will forever be Earthbound since those carts go for like $200.

Kirby Super Star is not only the best Kirby game, it's one of the best games on the SNES period. It also has the bonus of having good B/Y Jump/Attack button mapping unlike the DS release.
