Now would be a good time to replay KRZ since I've forgotten most of it.

Kibayasu posted:

Does anyone remember what those free releases for KRZ were and when during the game you should play them? I remember The Entertainment but that’s it.

Disco Elysium: failing the Drama check at the karaoke scared the poo poo out of my cat - and that was through headphones. Please tell me there's a different version if you actually pass.

The original DS1 port was still by far the best way to play DS1 before the remaster

My 970 still holds up well enough for my purposes so I can't imagine 1080 not being at the very least adequate for most people.

Middle Earth Shadow of War

They removed all the micro transactions and the grind points online to unlock single player stuff right?

I was talking about the ability itself. Honestly, I agree with you, most fights just aren't difficult enough to really need an oil to begin with. It's available at all times and useful whenever you do use it, though, so if people want to have that buff up all the time, the only thing that stops them shouldn't be that the game makes it to much of a bother to actually do so. You know what I mean? I think that kind of thing is just fundamentally bad game design.

You're cheating yourself 10 minutes of life each time you'd complete a quest. The extra xp is already in the game and you still have to meet the requirements to finish the quest.

Also, single player game, do what you want, etc...

So is it an essential oil mod or not? My aunt on Facebook wants to know.

Game Pass is a great value but a colossal piece of poo poo. If I uninstall a game now it instantly starts reinstalling it (and usually fails).

really weird to call people crazy for spending their money however they wish.

oh no this unfathomable sum of 300 dollars

I've been playing Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines lately to prepare for the sequel. Never played it before and I can definitely feel the 2004 jank. I'm really enjoying everything except the combat - I think I'm missing some kind of cheese method for most fights. That bishop boss is just impossible but the quest to kill him seems to be optional so I didn't do it.

I was just told to go into Chinatown, is there much of the game still left?

I loved HL2 when I first played it, but when I went back to play it a few years later I just couldn't get into it. If I could just skip the cutscenes, or they were shorter, it would be a lot easier to enjoy.
That said, I do have to dig up my copy of the artbook because that thing was amazing.

It's definitely the best bundle I've seen on Fanatical in quite a while. All-around recommended and great value for the money.

It's not really the fault of Watchdogs 2 being a bad game so much as it being a game that really does nothing particularly interesting of its own. It's an alright and even a really good game... if you've not played the standard Ubisoft Open World Game enough to be heartily sick of it. If you have, then it's the lack of unique ideas (and particularly the lack of new unique ideas over Watchdogs 1) that makes it feel like less than it really is. That probably has a lot to do with it.

Dungeon Siege owned, and i wish arpgs had followed more in its vein instead of all turning into frictionless number crunch skinner boxes

Serephina posted:

Yea, no boss ever showed any resilience from what I recall. The chinese evil lady was more notable for having that dungeon prior to her than her fight itself, where she probably just got gunned down like everybody else. Also if your flamethrower isn't automauling everything you might wanna check your files, cuz that's just not right.

Has this happened to anyone else? I use to love playing massive open world games like GTA or Far Cry when I was younger but these days I literally can't play them more than an hour after getting bored. I feel like I can't play any game that is too open or loose, I need some kind of narrative focus or the gameplay has to be excellent like the Souls games(not massive openworld but still). It's weird cause back in the day I hated games like Half Life or would have hated stuff like Wolfenstein but now I enjoy those games a lot more than the games I loved up as a kid. And its not even a time constraint thing.

gonna take a stab in the dark and guess you ran through the story mode once, most likely with friends, and dropped it afterwards?

Dias posted:

I remember that terrible trailer for Dead Island, and worst of all, I remember people thinking it was emotional. I guess revulsion is an emotion.

Dias posted:

It was RIDICULOUSLY exploitative, my dude. It just got even worse after the game was released.

ShootaBoy posted:

So uh, thoughts on the Battletech game? I don't give a poo poo about whatever story they did, but there's a mode that's just running your mercs, right? Cause I need some big, stompy mech action in my life, and when I can drop the game to costing $10, its tempting.

Elman posted:

So uh, I just got to the part where the soldiers arrive in Black Mesa and I see they haven't tweaked their AI at all. They have instant reaction time and shoot you the moment they see you, so it's extremely hard to kill any of them without taking damage. Alien enemies are fine, but this is just cheap. Admittedly I'm playing on Hard difficulty but Hard was fine in HL1, and I really thought they would have fixed this by now.

I think I'll probably just skip ahead to Xen and play that part. It's great that they finally finished this but the old content is really showing its age.

Borderlands 1 question: my wife and I recently started a coop run and are dying a lot. Are there any beginner mistakes we may be making or general advice? We’re doing all the side quests we find but still find ourselves having to suicide run bosses or badasses.

Cowcaster posted:

it's bite-sized and not as well written compared to what people were hoping for (fallout: new vegas 2.0) but at the end of the day it's not particularly awful, just mediocre

my closest point of comparison would be the harebrained scheme's shadowrun games
