I've been googling around for a solution to this problem with no luck with any of the fixes, so I'm going to try here. I did a fresh install of Prey (the arkane one). it seems like no matter what I do, the game won't launch when I start it. anyone had this problem before? does it just take a long time?

baka kaba posted:Do you have Mooncrash too? When you first launch (on Steam) there's a little popup asking if you want to play one or the other. Make sure that's not hiding somewhere I played through a decent amount of it (before dropping it for some reason) so it's worked on this machine before. I've gotten past the mooncrash/prey prompt so it isn't that.  I just want to become the god of shotguns again.

baka kaba posted:oh I dunno then - it doesn't take long to load, you should hear the intro logo videos and all that after a few seconds, if you can't hear anything it's probably stuck - I'd check task manager to see if it's even running, and definitely try the Verify Game Files thing This is from a ways back but the issue ended up being a botched video driver installation! I'm dumb, prey is working fine now. punk rebel ecks posted:Good post. Thank you. I haven't played RDR2 but my impression of GTAV was that they gave us this big beautiful world but was really not all that interested in it. They just wanted to recreate their highly scripted recreation of several movies. Witcher 3 managed to make a world with more depth.

SolidSnakesBandana posted:Agents of Mayhem I bought it a while ago when it was massively on sale. even bought all the dlc characters. It does remind me of Doom '16 in a sense because it does it's core gameplay well, but it does only that. Might get pretty monotonous if you don't enjoy that core combat. World kind of sucks, missions suck but drat did I love that arcadey third person shooter gameplay. John Murdoch posted:Hello, second Agents of Mayhem liker. Hello! It's a hard game to explain why I like it but I do. But it's probably not gonna blow your mind. I think the publisher never gave it a chance and everyone compared it to saints row, which it would never live up to. Lord Lambeth fucked around with this message at 04:26 on Apr 1, 2020 |

Ghostlight posted:i like it as a framing device because i think it gives the developers license to do stuff i don't think they'd try putting into a strict "play history" version of the game, like the god invasions in origins. I do kind of want to go back to play AC3 just so I can go through the bugfuck insane king george washington DLC. maybe sometime after I beat Origins.

exquisite tea posted:Walking sim was originally a derisive term used against these games but that's over now, and the only people who still try to post that as some kind of burn are owning themselves. "Interactive novel" is somehow even less accurate and dumber-sounding, so walky sim it is. Death Stranding is technically a walky sim

threelemmings posted:I think people also forget the other innovations that at the time were new and compare it to modern games, many of which draw from those established mechanics. It is to Halo's credit we can compare it, look at older stuff like turok or even Doom and in some ways those games feel almost like a different genre. It's easy to forget how many standard 3d shooter conventions were invented at that time. While if I remember right the PlayStation had a few shooters that did it first, Halo was probably the first shooter most people (me included) played with twin sticks, and the basic control scheme is virtually unchanged today. I think Halo really nailed doing a FPS on a console in a way non quite did before? There are definite precursors (Goldeneye and Perfect Dark) but I think Halo was way more successful.

You have very high standards or the game was never for you if you think halo is poo poo. That's okay though, you're not required to like everything, nor should you try to.

I always hear about those ice cubes in mgs 2 being this crazy detail but it wasn't really all that interesting actually messing with it in game. I think you don't see companies experimenting in interactivity in game because they already tried it, they're off experimenting with something else, I think

Cardiovorax posted:I'd say it has some of the most real-feeling. I recently had a similar discussion about Splinter Cell Blacklist and got a very similar complaint - that Sam Fisher feels heavy. Basically, Snake and Fisher both control a lot like you would expect a 220 pound adult beefslab to move, but that isn't really for everyone. If you're used to more in the way of instant responsiveness, then it can feel like a chore to get into. With a fully upgraded snake he runs cartoonishly fast though. Blacklist comparison is fair though.

Cardiovorax posted:It's more about the inertia than the movement speed, you know what I mean? It's where the whole "steering" thing comes from. There's a degree of felt delay to everything you do. I never really felt that so much but the complaints about geralts movement also sort of flew over my head. Might not be super sensitive to gamefeel? V  V

I wish Konami would port at least Peace Walker to the PC because I think it does a lot of the gameplay better than MGSV. Also I'm pretty sure for every story ally you recruit, you fulton them right inside the cutscene, screaming all the way to your war crimes clubhouse.

I liked the base management more than MGSV . There are definitely female pows at least, I do remember female soldiers being super rare in V.
