    I sadly have to disagree regarding Elden Ring. I love the DLC, but there’s pretty much 0 integration with the rest of the game. Nothing you do in the base game will change interactions in the DLC, and vice versa.

    If a couple voice lines changed (e.g. for Melina, Midra regarding the Frenzied Flame, Miquella regarding Malenia) I’d agree completely, but as it is it’s very slapped on.

    Not sure my comment deserves a downvote when I clearly formulated my criticism after specifying that I very much like it, but you do you.

  • DebatableRaccoon,

    Name checks out. Are you also forgetting the DLC is awkwardly levelled too? That it’s not accessible until quite far into the game but if you try go into it with a complete save you’ll be dramatically over-levelled.

    It was not rubbish, but what Xrd did to my main character, Zato, irreparably damaged my relationship with any future Guilty Gear game, and Strive just finished off whatever hope I had left.

    And to be clear: I'm not talking about power level here—fuck that. I'm only talking about how much fun I had with the character, and still do in Guilty Gear Plus R.

    I’ve done a few competitions of various sorts, yeah Most of them have been tournaments. I lost all of them.

    Dragon Age 2 ruined Dragon Age for me.

    Mass Effect 3’s ending soured me to anything EA until Titanfall 2 was less than $20.

    I’m sure I’m forgetting a few more ones but those two stand out the most.

    Senseless,

    The asset recycling in DA2 was absolute madness. I really tried to like DA:I and finished it once but it was painful at times. Has nothing on common with Dragon Age but its name.

    Pretty cliche, but The Witcher 3.

    Berttheduck,

    Both of them are excellent, blood and wine especially as it really nicely ends Geralt’s story. Also Tuson (sp?) is just beautiful.

    Project Hel, a DLC for Ghostrunner. The base game was already pretty great, but the DLC added jump trajectories, making movement less ambiguous and improved the frankly wonky upgrade system of the original. It also added a new (albeit shorter) story, a new rage mechanic and you get to play as a cold, unfeeling cybernetic abomination controlled by the villain of the base game.

    All of this is to say that I was floored on how much I preferred playing the DLC than the original and I loved Ghostrunner.

    If you want to message them about it, now is the time most likely to work.

    Renegade III: The Final Chapter.

    Renegade on the ZX Spectrum was good, the sequel Target: Renegade was one of my favourite games for years, but the third game was a cynical cash grab, badly executed, barely playable.

    Rimworld or Crusader Kings. Their DLC expands the possibilities of what can happen during a game and are entirely optional. Their existence doesn’t take anything from new players who only own the base game and you can pick and choose what you want to add to your game to expand it how you so choose.

    ScientifficDoggo,

    I second Rimworld. The DLCs literally only add content, and are completely optional even if you own them. In fact, let me shill Rimworld for a second…

    Never have I felt every emotion possible from playing a game. From sorrow about one of my child colonists getting gunned down trying to move a rock, to triumph watching a lone colonist single-handedly repelling a mech threat with a bolt action and a sandbag. Rage, watching one of those bastards breakdown from having to sit in a shitty chair and murdering the only doctor in the colony, then dying to the wounds sustained from said doctor shortly after.

    Death Stranding 1 & 2. I mean they are walking simulators anyway. I’m not dissing the game at all. Probably have 500 hours plus in both of them combined.

    2 things come to mind:

    The first thing is that at one point many years ago we participated in Rocket League’s RLCS. Participation was completely open. We were actually doing quite well until we randomly ran into pro players and got completely demolished. It’s kinda humbling to know that even though you’re part of the top ~1% of players, pro players are still in a totally different league and absolutely unbeatable. Their speed and game sense is so much better than that of any mere mortal, it’s like we weren’t even there. We were probably low Grand Champion around the time, and we got beaten like we would beat Gold ranked players. Personally I don’t mind losing like this, it’s a good learning experience and shows you how much is possible.

    At uni I also participated in plenty of LAN parties that had random game competitions. Usually they were games that a lot of us didn’t ever play before. We’d usually start playing the game a few hours in advance to get a feel for it. There I’ve found that I’m quite decent at this usually, but that there are definitely a few people who can get quite decent at a game in 2 hours to the point that they challenge people with casual experience with the game. It as always good fun though, and because I tended to put some effort into it I regularly managed to get into the top 3.

    yes! the old Nintendo World Championships! various pokemon and smash bros tournaments, and will be going to my first EVO this year!

    it’s fun as long as you’re passionate about it and don’t fret too much about winning or losing. just have fun with other ppl who also enjoy this hobby and try to learn and keep growing!

    I mean it’s just a cheap PR ploy anyway. Companies are not your friends. They are just as much dependent on payment processors like Mastercard as Steam and Itch. They probably just don’t matter enough to get notice.
