Unreal_One posted:It's my GOTY 2019. If you're familiar with Armored Core, it's about the speed of AC4, but considerably easier, especially if you use the attachment system. The writing is very anime nonsense. But if building and flying a ridiculous giant robot appeals to you, nothing in its class has come out in purt near a decade. Would it be better to play with M+K (so I can aim) or controller (so I can dodge)?

Wamdoodle posted:Another game I'm pleasantly surprised at is Metal Gear Survive. Something about the gameplay loop clicks with me and I'm gonna stick with it to see how it goes. The story is just there though so don't bother if you're looking for more Metal Gear. It is insane but not in that special Kojima way. I saw a review Youtube that made me check it out. Thorhighheels, whomst also did the music to current indie gem Umurangi Generation, did the review. Yeah I enjoyed it way more than I had been expecting to.

Artelier posted:The genre as a whole is normally referred to as shoot 'em ups or SHMUPs Bullet hells are a subgenre of schmup that combine very large numbers of projectiles with a very small player hitbox, placing an emphasis on precise maneuvering through the projectile pattern.

sur le web posted:Dragon Age 2 is a lot better than most people will tell you (but not as good as a few people will tell you). The high points in the writing are easily the high points in the entire series, but you can definitely tell that the development was compromised. The dialogue writing was good, but the plotting was absolutely atrocious.

StrixNebulosa posted:Whoah, why didn't anyone tell me Metal Gear Survive is a zombie game? I adore zombies, even the most generic takes on them, and this is my jam! You should also play Days Gone. It's generic zombies, but well-executed. I like the way the big threats continue to be 'just regular slow zombies, but literally bundreds of them'.

Kibayasu posted:Days Gone’s zombies aren’t slow zombies but they also aren’t super human fast zombies that sprint like an Olympic athlete but they do have basically unlimited stamina. A regular human can outrun them, for a while. I called them slow zombies because they're slower than you are. But as you say, you can outrun them for a while.

exquisite tea posted:Elden Ring is already better than any Souls game because you get to ride a horse, and presumably that means there won't be something trying to kill you every 10 feet. Maybe it will now be only every 20 feet. Just make the horse attempt to kill you as you ride it.

MonkeyforaHead posted:I do dig the "make it look and sound as repulsive as possible" aesthetic that Cruelty Squad goes with but it makes it drat near impossible to pick apart enemies from civilians at a glance, the cash penalty on death is loving infuriating and I don't want to waste my time playing stonks in a futile attempt to offset it, and the actual assigned objectives are always just "go here and kill the targets which are already marked for you, through the scenery, at all times". Which I guess is supposed to be thematically appropriate, and there's other stuff to do?? but the sheer amount of oddly bland and frustrating poo poo you have to wade through put me off WAY more than any of the deliberately terrible interface and presentation. Just shoot everyone. Die enough and the penalty goes away

It's also very fun to play with loadouts in Cryptark. You can mount four guns, so it's up to you whether you want four specialised tools for different jobs or to just load up with four rapid-fire machineguns and pull all the triggers at once to be flung backwards by sheer recoil.

The 7th Guest posted:Yeah, like I said gating works in stuff like Zeldas or Metroidvanias, or puzzle games. It doesn't make much sense in open world games where you can reach any objective from the beginning. I also maintain it made no sense to make you unlock essential stuff to combat in Metal Gear Rising like parrying. I can't fathom why they did it that way. It forces the player to select the move in a menu and see the command for it (and often a little animation). It's an alternative to a forced tutorial.

4 is the best Far Cry in my opinion.John Murdoch posted:I'm not familiar with everything that New Dawn tweaks, but generally every Far Cry from 3 and up plays roughly the same. Assuming you're not married to firearms, I'd actually recommend Primal over 4. Primal is also good, if you want a change from guns.
