man, metro last light was a really weak game in retrospect

gorgeous, but it’s even lighter on actual gameplay than its predecessor and the Red Square gunfight was just as horrible as I remembered
The level with the car is pretty fun though.

Oh man, that Chinatown battle.

As an aside, it really is a tragedy that the Legacy of Kain series is a dead franchise.
I mean, I only played it for the cutscenes and the acting, I played a few of them and the gameplay was universally bad. Didn't play Blood Omen 1 though.

Well A Hat In Time's cruise ship's 2nd level just broke me, uninstalling forever. Time to go back to something more forgiving like Nioh or Dark Souls.
Skip it, play the Nyakuza Metro DLC instead. It's astounding that the Arctic and Metro levels are from the same game.

Party Boat posted:

I'm not sure I'd want a Legacy of Kain revival without Amy Hennig on writing duty to be honest.

I replayed the whole series about a year ago (although I skipped Blood Omen 2 because of the many issues getting it working on a modern PC - I think I would have been better emulating a console version) and while the plot and voice acting are fantastic, Blood Omen 1 suffers hugely from its legacy as a PS1 game with constantly having to read data from the disc. The other games have early 3D open world issues to varying extents with controls and camera (the water level in SR1 was bad even by the standards of the time). It was worth it for the plot but I definitely couldn't recommend it to someone that didn't have nostalgia for the series.
Honestly, just watch the cutscenes on Youtube.

I just finished OneShot, and while I liked it a lot, I didn't really consider it as thought-provoking as it was trying to be. It's just a cool little game where you can occasionally talk to your character.

So, finishing The Final Station made me realize I have an itch for games where you hop in a vehicle and travel between towns scrounging for supplies and avoiding monsters. What are some of the better games with that sort of gameplay loop?

Jesus, Control is Dark Souls difficult, god drat. I can't get that flying bastard to half health before he two-shots me.

edit: ah I was supposed to hide behind a pillar and take pot shots at him. Pretty lame.
Once you get the telekinetic grab ability there's this weird sweet spot where you're pulling an object to you, but it's not in your hand yet. The flying enemies usually dodge tk attacks, but if you throw something in that sweet spot's window, you throw the object at them from behind and it almost always hits them.

Kennel posted:

To be serious, actually having that skillshot system made Bulletstorm less enjoyable for me, because it encourages you to collect x amount of each skillshot. Therefore I constantly felt like I was failing, if I killed enemies in a way that didn't make the numbers go up.

I guess my main issue was that it was clearly designed to be played with gamepad. Limited weapon capacity, very little verticality etc. And yeah, not having a jump option makes me feel like I'm in a wheelchair.



It's still a fine game (or at least I think it is, haven't played since 2012), but there's a lot of small things I didn't like.
Bulletstorm reminds me a little of Mad World if you removed all the things that made Mad World great.

They're both games where you torture mooks to death in creative ways for points, but Mad World also had a unique aesthetic, an amazing soundtrack, and leaned in all the way with it's pitch-black sense of humor.

There should be a category for games you don't play for the gameplay (which can be bad), but for the experience. Games like Pathologic or the later Legacy of Kain games.

If I play through Batman am I going to want to buy the sequels immediately and play them? I’ve heard mixed things about them, especially the third one with the horrible batmobile.
The batmobile is a weird mix of floaty but also you can usually smash through walls and pillars, so the floatiness is lessened. The battank fights aren't as interesting as the rest of the game, but if you skip the optional tank fights it's not a lot to get through.

The two batmobile boss fights are pretty meh though.

Finished the prologue for a little game called Starstruck: Hands of Time. You're send back in time to stop two kids in a band from destroying the world. Your characters look like claymations and the town you're in is styled after a little diorama. It's one of those quirky games.

Starstruck: Hands of Time is a story-rich, genre-defying roleplaying rhythm adventure. Play guitar and explore a miniature diorama world as two guitarist claymation kids, and then help them progress by rampaging around their city as a giant destructive time-travelling hand.
