Real hurthling! posted:in a perfect world all venerable scifi action shooter series that ran out of gas would have pumped out vanquish clone reboots. I never want to see a 3d non-Legends Megaman, even if it's Vanquish style. I have the foolish hope that Sigma being in MvCI might bring a new X game, but it might be for the best if it does not. chumbler fucked around with this message at 06:33 on Jul 8, 2017 |

al-azad posted:I don't know exactly how that final battle was supposed to play out. I just entered the room and zapped her as my screen slowly got garbled. There didn't appear to be any damage to my character, just zap zap zap at something I couldn't see until smash cut to ending scene. Strike Suit Zero is alright as far as Rogue Squadron-ish games go, but the campaign is nothing special. It has some sweet Homeworld sky boxes, though. I don't know if it's in your roulette, but I'd recommend Strike Suit Infinity over it, which is just an arcade gauntlet version of the game and lets it really shine.

Olive Garden tonight! posted:I don't know what this means so hopefully you're not spoiling. Father Servo is a side quest, not really any story spoilers. If you haven't found him he's on the roof of the last building before you enter the desert. My greatest gaming regret is that I did not do that side quest the proper way that I should have.

Thinking about plunkbat (the superior name for it), what are some games you all will basically not play because the gameplay doesn't appeal to you, you're just no good at it, you don't have the time, or whatever, but you appreciate that they exist? For me it's probably competitive shooters, most fighting games, Virtual On, and other things that require fast, precise inputs. I'll play them but quickly hit the limit where trying to improve from my meager level would require far more time investment than I can put in, so my interest wanes. They're great games and fun to watch, though. Also good sandbox or building games or big wrpgs because I'm bad at making my own fun in them. I need more structure and objectives. Edit: Oh and coop games, for probably obvious reasons. chumbler fucked around with this message at 06:31 on Jul 14, 2017 |

I felt like playing some Titanfall 2 due to discussion here so after several months of not playing it apparently I have to download 14 gigs of updates  . I thought they only added a couple maps and mechs.

glam rock hamhock posted:I'm just psyched they're apparently finally adding Jubei to Blazblue. It's a weird late addition to a series they just finished but he's a character that's been they're since the first game and had never been playable. Plus he's a cat in a hoodie (not a cat person, just a cat... Though he's married to a big tittie anime witch in the story) Well presumably he wasn't always a cat, I guess. He's got good taste, though.

The premise of Metal Gear Solid 2 (not a spoiler, it's right in the intro) is the Ocelot basically gave every country and wealthy enough entity in the world the capability to produce the most dangerous next-gen super-weapon. And then they did. Well without nukes a Rex isn't THAT big of a threat.

exquisite tea posted:A huge segment of the Overwatch playerbase doesn't really care about the competitive nature of the game at all and just plays matches toward earning cosmetic items. Of course it helps Blizzard's bottom line that some people pay money for them but even if they were all totally free people would want something to work toward since they couldn't care less about their KDR or ladder ranking. None of that justifies loot boxes. I will never understand why anyone defends something so purely anti-consumer, except that they have been conditioned to think there is no alternative. PS Never defend a corporation.

To be clear, I have no issue with dlc (except like Capcom style day one on-the-disc dlc) or cash shops. It's not like people wouldn't buy from them if you're that concerned about how the poor corporation is going to make money. My problem is with loot boxes specifically, more so when they're the only option for getting something. It's a bit weird when "I would like to exchange money for a specific product" is seen as somehow radical entitlement.

Tuxedo Catfish posted:Cosmetic loot boxes are good because they a) incentivize developers to care about the long-term health and balance of the game, since their income comes in a steady stream from people who are hyper-invested in the game rather than initial word of mouth and b) it's cosmetics. Cosmetic effects do no matter unless they're so egregiously garish that they interfere with character identification. Mechanics uber alles. Whether you personally care about cosmetic stuff is irrelevant, because clearly enough people do care that they can base their revenue stream on it, so they do matter. The question is whether you think it is acceptable for a company not to be obligated to give a product a customer is paying for. Why is it outlandish and entitled to expect some video game companies to work the way every other business does? Hell, even most video game companies don't operate that way, but people are willing to give Blizzard a pass because who knows. chumbler fucked around with this message at 15:24 on Jul 22, 2017 |
