I wish there were a curator that'd sift through the negative reviews for a game and summarise points that aren't loving stupid. No Japanese VA? Who gives a flying gently caress. Game is abandoned and you didn't get your money's worth? You played 200 hours! Difficult to play with KB+M? That's valid for you, but why should that contribute to the overall metric for those of us with controllers...? Oh, and my personal favorite- I don't like <genre> but I bought game of <genre> and didn't like it because <genre>. gently caress right off!

I don't think anyone was more than cautiously optimistic about Agents of Mayhem. It reeks of design by committee.

Lyrai posted:Actual content: http://store.steampowered.com/app/434460/Rock_of_Ages_2_Bigger__Boulder/ I really like the new race mode- it's just first to the finish, past a preset obstacle course, first to 3, and of course you can smash into your opponent. Other than that and having more (and good!) bosses, it's more of the same but with more unlockable stuff. I really liked the first, so I really like the second, but it's probably not for everyone.

Armor-Piercing posted:I tried Immortal Defense yesterday for the first time, and it starts fun, but I'm stuck on the first endless level. I played the first campaign on 50% challenge without much trouble and have about 34k cache to start the endless level, but I can only last about two minutes, which leaves me with not enough to survive the first level of the second campaign. I tried turning the challenge down to 0%, but I still only make it two minutes in, so I'm not sure that slider even makes a difference on the endless levels. You could try turning up the challenge on the last few levels of the first campaign to leave you more going into the first endless level.

Phlegmish posted:Thinking of picking up Nier: Automata now that it's on sale. I see it has a 78% score on Steam, which is good but not fantastic. What are the common complaints? I've heard there's no autosaving, which does seem really stupid. It's the worst version of a fantastic game.

Orv posted:It's almost like it's not exploitative if they don't force you to use it? If the game is balanced against not spending money then even I will decry it as bullshit garbage ruined by microtransactions, but as it stands it's a whale trap for the ranked online mode and we don't know what it really effects. How is anything that can be described as a 'whale trap' not exploitative?

Vicious Attack Llama Apocalypse is pretty fun. They throw so many terrible jokes at you that if you don't find yourself chuckling at one of them you're probably dead inside.

The Kins posted:Because paying a hundred bucks to expose your learning-to-make-games fangame to the cruel, uncaring, relentless eyes of the larger internet is a great* idea! I mean it kind of is, it's $100 for brutal criticism, abuse and a harsh life lesson. I've known people waste more money for those.

There is a postgame dungeon which you absolutely should not do without the 6x experience bonus you can get in a fully tricked out NG+ because holy poo poo is it ever grindy.

Det_no posted:NISA has gone ahead and done something right, they 've successfully(?) released the highly anticipated Labyrinth of Refrain: Coven of Dusk. How creepy is the character design? The game sounds like my jam but if it's packed full of half-naked children as NISA tends to do then I'll give it a miss.

Orv posted:In the dead of night I'm asking this and certainly of one of the most divisive topics, but I've missed a lot of the good metroidvanias from the past few years. I know at least some people have some issues with basically all of them but are there any absolute standouts I need to play? I've played Hollow Knight but that's kind of it. Is Sundered any better at the game part than Jotun? Death's Gambit falls apart pretty hard from what I understand, but does anything not? That seems to be the biggest issue plaguing the genre in perpetuity. Yoku's Island Express is really well done. I'd stay away from Sundered- it looks amazing but has issues with being procgen and interrupting you with huge waves of enemies that phase through walls and gank you at inopportune moments. Iconoclasts has some metroidvania elements but is generally just a puzzle-ish action platformer with a batshit insane plot.

Deakul posted:Developed by Chucklefish of Starbound fame, that's going to be a looong wait and see for me. I was lukewarm on the idea/publisher combo, but having played an early version of it, it's pretty great. Here's hoping the fun doesn't get squeezed out of it at some point.

Pleads posted:First round final impressions (keeping in mind I only played each for ~45 minutes): I don't want to open up the Berseria can'o'worms again, but this really is worth playing past the bland prologue. If you got through Titania and it didn't grab your interest even a little bit, then that's fair enough.

I really want to see Godus make a comeback. I can't explain why I have any affection for that shitheap, but I want it to be made good. I didn't even back it.

zer0spunk posted:Reasons why EGS doesn't invoke any particular response from me one way or the other: Personally I'm ok with them funding timed exclusives and giving indie devs the funding to be relatively safe, but I'm still going to wait out the exclusivity. That way Epic are throwing Fortnite money at devs who need it while getting no benefit in return; I can wait.
