atholbrose posted:For those who might be interested, there's a demo for the English version of Romance of the Three Kingdoms 14 up on Steam. I guess people shouldn't sit on this, since uh, they're taking the demo down in a month? What a pointless thing to do. I don't understand the reasoning behind time limited demos like that.

Kennel posted:But what about... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IEHsHJ9a4p8 Obviously can't judge the whole game on one video but it does show more than the Steam page's video, and I'm happy to say it looks like murdering Nazi soldiers, Commandos style. Looks pretty fun, too.

MMF Freeway posted:I think it would be totally possible to enjoy the atmosphere, writing and general vibe of Alyx in non-VR even if the gameplay and immersion suffer greatly. I dunno if that's much better than just watching it but I'll take what I can get I think it would be totally impossible. You don't get any sense of scale or place from screenshots or video of Alyx. You wouldn't get anything resembling the same experience of being in a room and just looking around yourself in VR on a monitor. It's not translatable. The immersion and feeling of being somewhere is a huge part of what makes it all gel together for me.

HerpicleOmnicron5 posted:It's strictly true, in that it conveys a full 3D picture instead of a 2D one on a flat screen. That doesn't really do anything for me other than improve depth perception (which is super handy for War Thunder or any other flight sims) and that's it. The pure visual side of it is like 3D movies but better in every way, as a super reductive comparison. Having 6 dof head movement does huge things for me, it's like a switch in my brain that gives me sensations I just don't feel while playing a 2d game vs vr without 6dof head tracking, which does nothing really for me. It's fine if people don't care for it or whatever, but to say it's not a valid experience is a joke.

My only issue with the New Hitman and Hitman 2 is that your progress is tied to always online DRM for some reason. My ISP service isn't as bad as it used to be but that kind of thing still hurts me to see in a single player game. It's still almost miraculous feeling to me that we got not one, but two amazing new Hitman games that are good enough to be held up to Blood Money, so even if I don't like that aspect specifically I can't deny that they're well worth getting. Gonna get the next one too even if it still keeps that annoying junk up.

MonkeyforaHead posted:As a final note, if you unbind the voice chat key and type "voice_enable 0" in the console you can disable voice chat entirely. You can still use the character barks for basic communication. Much as I enjoy the game, that's made the last few years much more tolerable. It's languishing on the Epic store so I think most people are biding their time on it.

repiv posted:Diabotical goes into open beta soon, if anything gets arena FPS going again it will probably be that. It's more or less Quake 3 but with modern amenities like matchmaking. It's gonna have to be real good to get over the Epic Store barrier. Online only games cutting themselves off from Steam feels like a huge gamble if you can't get a critical mass of sustainable players.

Orv posted:It's definitely a me problem, I've seen the ridiculous stuff people who are silly good at the game can pull off but to me the combat kinda boils down to a handful of attacks per weapon, you do them fifty times to kill a monster, I always flare out on interest around low HR the three times I've tried it. I feel you tbh. I get bored whacking on monsters so long to kill them, it's just adhd or something idk. I 100% get why people enjoy it, just not for me?

I've been getting it ever since the Steam chat rework I think it was, been noticing it for months. The longer I have steam open the worse it gets. Annoying because after a few days I have to restart Steam for the chat to be functional again.

Right after I picked up Cruelty Squad they did a collab with the transphobic nazis who make Brigador and that took all the wind out of my sails for getting into the game.

v1ld posted:The original Demons Souls soundtrack is less swelling orchestral themes than the games that followed which may or may not be a selling point depending on taste - I love it. The voice acting often used slightly weird phrasing and accents which combined with the very minimal use of voices and even NPCs to add to the overall weird tone of the worlds in that game. It wasn't striving for the overall consistency and continuous maps of the DS games so it could do whatever it wanted, felt like. The remake really butchered the tone and feel of all the music in my opinion, extremely disappointing that someone decided their take was going to be better than the original work.

I'd be more bothered about it if the original Demon's Souls didn't emulate fine at least, it performed and looked better than I remember the ps3 version being when I tried it in RPCS3, although you won't get a thriving online playerbase of course, it's good that the game is so well preserved otherwise. To be a little more Steam related, how was that Nier 1 release? I got decently far into that one on RPCS3 too, but I almost feel like starting over cause I dropped it for too long, and there wasn't an official rerelease yet.

It's been forever since I've played any Spring, so it's awesome to hear that they're able to get big improvements made in it like that still. I used to play against people with a pentium 4, on dial-up, and whew. I'm sure it's night and day compared to now. I hope it still has online players, maybe I'll check it out.

I didn't like the writing or story of HW2 very much at all compared to the first or Cataclysm and the third saying it's basing itself right after 2 puts a big damper on my expectations personally.

Bloodplay it again posted:You can customize what options show up in the systray right-click menu in Steam settings (not at my PC atm but I think in the interface section). You can remove things you don't use and I have had screenshots there for so long I didn't realize it wasn't default until I read this post. I would have never found this on my own despite it sounding very handy, thanks a ton!

Gun shooting gameplay has consistently felt like Arkane's weakest area in their games for me and Redfall looks super in line with that for me so I really don't see myself ever picking it up unfortunately. Pretty much like the exact opposite of what I'd want to see from Arkane!

I didn't like how as I got farther into Elden Ring, the bosses and tougher enemies would do more input reading reaction moves, where like I hit the roll button once and they immediately, on the frame, stop whatever they were doing and go into a big input reading gigacombo on me over it. Once I realized it was happening it kind of took me out of the experience some, and I'm not usually a souls game difficulty complainer.

I remember a really silly example being those lion guardians in redmane castle doing a dramatic dodge jump if you fire your bow, even if they're really far away, not aggroed or aware of you, and you don't even have to be shooting at them, but every time you hit the bumper, like puppets on a string, they lurch every time lol.

Squiggly Beast posted:(*: In Archolos, any permanent bonus stats/lp are stored separately and added after all calculations. So you can chug permanent stat/skill potions and eat foodstuffs that give bonuses without having to worry about permanently loving up your character. Still have to focus your build as costs do scale up rapidly, but that single change removes stupid logistical headaches like having to sit on huge piles of apples, dark mushrooms etc. until lategame to avoid wasting most of their bonus value.) Ooh that's extremely cool to know, I'm only a few hours in so far and I figured I had to hoard everything like usual. I've been pretty impressed so far, I think anyone who's a fan of G1 and 2 is gonna have fun.
