Croccers posted:The only card-based video games I've ever liked are the Acid games and Slay The Spire Someone was telling me about Slay the Spire last week and I'm intrigued although I almost never buy PC games anymore. The first AC!D was so awesome that it's one of the only games I ever lost sleep over. I would go to bed thinking about it and eventually just get up in the middle of the night and play it lol it was insane.

Captain Hygiene posted:Where I'm growing frustrated with MGS2 now is in the map and objectives. I've taken out a few bombs and all I have is the general areas with the remaining bombs. I can see a couple, but the game is opaque with that I'm not sure if I'm just missing something in the environment or if there's a larger puzzle I'm supposed to work through. I've found locked doors several security levels higher than the card I have and it's also unclear if I'm supposed to be getting those or if it'll just hand me them later on. Just mostly wandering and confused, and the locked camera/first person toggle doesn't help. Use every tool available and call everyone for hints. Some of them are hidden in clever places that require you to be in first person mode. I loved that part of the game because I kept thinking "where would I put these if I was a huge rear end in a top hat?" and it helped a lot.

Bloodcider posted:Fences and spears aren't really useful beyond early game. Get good at CQC and snap headshots. So first of all thanks to everyone who posted so far. I'm having fun with this game. I just got to the first defend the teleporter mission and I'm stuck. Spamming fences and molotovs doesn't work. I get overrun real easy. I don't have any recipes for claymores or other traps. It's all fences, sandbags, and molotovs. Any specific advice you could give me? Oh also, I made a bunch of 9mm pistol ammo but I don't seem to be able to carry it all. Am I missing something? I know the pistol isn't great but only being able to carry 18 total rounds seems silly. That's not even 2 full magazines.

Having fun with Survive but this first Iris Energy extraction is frustrating me. I put up barb wire barricades and then normal fences behind those. When they get to the barb wire I shoot them with the 9mm. When they get to the fence I poke them with my max level gold spear rod thing. When they get past that I use claymores and molotovs. I basically run out of resources on the 3rd wave and get destroyed. I'm considering building a hunting bow for more dps but I'm not sure how much it will help. Anyone have any advice?

K8.0 posted:It's been a while since I played Survive so my advice may not be 100%, but it's definitely in the ballpark. Do lures actually work when the zombie target is the generator? I didn't even think to try it because I thought they'd ignore it. What I do is set up the barricades and fences and a couple mines first, then start attacking when they get close enough. Should I not be doing that? It's probably not a good idea for me to run into a huge group of these nerds and get caught up fighting them when waves of them are coming from other directions.

Killingyouguy! posted:Due to reasons the only Metals Gear I've played myself are the NES one, Ghost Babel, and Survive I'm playing Survive right now and I feel your pain but once I figured out how to get good at defense the game got a lot easier. Maybe look up a guide or watch a couple videos instead of beating your head against the wall. It's pretty great after the learning curve.

So uhhhhh Defending Sahalanthropus for FIFTEEN loving MINUTES really loving sucks and I hate this. I think I'm going to just break down and craft a bunch of stuff. I also need to farm wood for flame arrows. This mission completely sucks and it might make me quit the game altogether if I have to keep wasting tons of time restarting.

I got a bunch of flame arrows and pulled out the machine gun turrets from my stash. I also crafted a shotgun and ammo pouches for it. Basic fences still seem best but other barricades don't seem great here and molotovs don't work in water so welp on those. I think I can bum rush the first groups, then fall back and use fences and turrets, grenade the bombers and mortars, then hide behind the rocks and shotgun the rest. The time limit really shouldn't be this long though.

No this story is dumber than any of Kojima's stuff and it has no humor in it at all. Kojima at least threw in some absurd comedy every once in a while. The only upside is that Survive clearly had an editor so there are no unnecessarily long cutscenes or dialogue. Anyway I'm glad they let me go back to the previous base because it pissed me off that they forced me to leave right after I got the first area expansion and that you couldn't do base building in the second area.

I hope I get to recruit a whole bunch more castaways so we can hang out around the campfire.

I beat Survive. The gameplay and mechanics and base building and combat and resource gathering was really fun and cool but that story was one of the worst ever. I liked that there was no real final boss and the final fight was just 3 waves of a zillion zombies because it was actually challenging and fun. The free defenses they give you aren't enough so you have to use some of your own and run back to base to craft more between waves. I actually really liked that. I assume that aftermath is the post-game and it looks like you can grind iris energy to eventually go home but I'm not sure if I want to grind all that out. I'm really enjoying finding washed up containers and rescuing new castaways but if the only thing I have left to do is a bunch of digging and defending I might put this on the shelf and play something else. Overall I'm really glad I played this. It was definitely fun.

LOL no way in hell am I playing through that game from the beginning again. The one I got was Goodluck is Chris that you sent back from the future which makes no sense and then he tries to help you farm up iris energy to get home and I guess we broke the time loop or something and now I'm just collecting containers and castaways and then eventually I'll activate the digger and do a base defense but I really need to farm up resources to make ammo. I blew a ton of stuff fighting off the waves of zombies during the Lord of Dust fight.

So I guess I didn't actually beat Survive? I saw credits roll then I did a base defense and then I went out and got a memory board and then rescued a few castaways and I guess there's more? How many more main story missions are left? If there's not much left I'll go ahead and finish it but if there's a bunch of repetitive nonsense then I might just shelve it and start my October horror game queue early.

K8.0 posted:There are a few more, but it's largely a bridge to multiplayer and not really intended to be played without resources and unlocks from it, you're meant to bounce back and forth between. It gives you class unlocks (yes, there are classes. Scout is insanely fun.) and some new missions like Monster Hunter bosses. From the sound of things, you probably wouldn't enjoy it. Yeah I just unlocked the new classes which is why I was like "wait what the hell" and that's a fuckton of energy to farm up to skill up a single class. If it's meant to be done online with co-op that's kind of a bummer because the game is 3 years old and probably doesn't have a huge playerbase on PS4. Co-op would probably be fun though because Peace Walker co-op with goons is some of the most fun I've ever had playing games online. Oh well. I did enjoy the overall experience of the game I just hated the story and if there was an online playerbase for this I'd keep at it.

As a cishet man I enjoyed looking at Quiet (and she's also a very effective combat partner) but in this day and age if I want to see hot women wearing next to nothing or nothing at all I can go almost literally anywhere on the internet. I really don't need it in the games I play and it's sad that stuff like this still happens.

Game devs are notoriously horny but like, I don't know what to do with that when it's layered on top of something that is otherwise really, really, really loving good My solution is to look at the boobs with my eyes, then roll my eyes at boobs being in the video game, then continue to enjoy the fun video game And yeah I agree with all the other posts above.

Bayonetta's writer and creator wrote her to sexualize herself because that's what the writer wanted her to do. Important distinction. Don't get me wrong here I love Bayonetta as a character and I love the game but fictional characters don't make their own decisions. They do what their writers make them do. Kojima made the same mistake with the words and deeds thing. Quiet didn't choose anything about herself. It was all written that way by Kojima because he's a lecherous old man.
