Strider, do games w When was the last time you actually laughed while playing a game?

Indiana Jones and the great circle: npc walking around on Gizeh and the clothes of one being in T-pose.

Oh, Bethesda.

There were actually good, written gags in that game, too. Plus the general “Indy found himself in a place where needed to improvise and punch some Nazis” sort of gameplay that the game did so well. I can’t even recall a single bug from my playthrough.

Strider,

Yeah that was nice. The whole game was nice albeit too much promise and left far behind by any uncharted (>1) which came long before.

That at a premium price is too little. (not saying anyone should share this highly subjective opinion!)

But that’s not the point I was teing to make. I literally laughed at that typical Bethesda T-pose.

I was a big fan of Uncharted 2 and 3, but Uncharted 4 stopped giving me control of the action and started making it barely interactive or just a cut-scene, and I found The Great Circle to be an excellent counter to that, personally. Even if you saw a T-pose, it doesn’t seem right to call it a typical Bethesda thing. There’s a big difference between Bethesda, the developer of Elder Scrolls, and Machine Games, the developer of Wolfenstein and Indiana Jones; they don’t even use the same engine between them.

Strider,

I know. /Harrison Ford smirk

Really enjoyed the short demo of Steam page was really funny. It may sound weird but it’s a mixture of Stanley parable (also fucking amazing) and counter strike 1.6 culture.

Played yesterday with friends at NFS underground 1 it was quite fun

I cackled playing Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth

…when some NPCs moonwalked in the background during some dialogue.

Before that, some parts Yakuza: Like A Dragon which I thought was a much funnier and better game

I’ve used RPCS3 a bit, and it’s very impressive what they’ve made.

Some games don’t work, but it’s great when there are those that do.

I have no doubt that this emulator will be on par with the greats one day and we can all have a PS3 inside our computer.

Hearts of stone is so good. I’m gonna dive into the Witcher 2 soon, first play through!

I’ve had an itch to play Palworld recently, so definitely that! Helldivers is also my “Jump in for a match or two then log off” style game that I generally play as well.

Luigi’s Mansion on original GameCube hardware. Well, it’s pretty modified - BT controller board, memcard pro, EON MKII for digital video output, picoboot to load from sd, but the game processing HW is original lol.

Also, Rise of the Tomb Raider was easily the best one of those. I loved that game.

Ghost of Yotei

prole,

It’s so good. I think it might be the most visually stunning game I’ve ever played.

The first one was good, but it didn’t hold my attention long enough. I can’t stop playing this one.

jaschen306,

SuckerPunch def took this franchise to the next level with Yotei. I sometimes stop and look at the surrounding views after doing a shrine.

Killing bosses are so satisfying since the story is so good.

Most of the game is relatively easy except that boss on Mount Yotei. The struggles with him.

prole,

I’m playing on hard difficulty, and I struggled a little at the most recent boss (the Oni). Finally beat him though.

Combat feels a little more Sekiro-esque than the first one. At least on the harder difficulties.

I started out, at first, with the one hit kill difficulty, but that was too much lol

jaschen306,

I am also on hard. If you wear the gear that helps with perfect parry, I find that makes things a bit easier.

prole,

Maybe I’ll try that… However, Sekiro is my favorite game of all time, so maybe I’m a bit of a masochist

jaschen306,

So what helped me was not using the blue/red light to time your parry. Focus on the weapons tip.

Also hold block and quickly releasing and repressing the block to engage the parry.

Putting my final touches into my STALKER: Anomaly modlist and creating the last couple of compatibility patches. I think I’ll end up at 400 mods which is a nice round number. Hope I’ll get to start my playthrough this weekend.

Will also try to get through another chapter of Alan Wake 2, I was on a replay of it when I got derailed but I do want to finish it and finally start the DLCs.

God of War 2018 after playing gow for my whole childhood, it’s interesting

Supposed to do the end game content for Expedition 33 but I’ll probably just be doing rounds of Megabonk.

Got into Expedition 33 this week. Just got to the point where the huge stuffed puppet learned to swim. Gotta say, I don’t get the hype.

I think they tried to souls-likify a JRPG. But it just feels like combat is one QTE challenge after the other. No other mechanic really matters, at least on normal mode. Also it feels like the main story, which seems fresh and intriguing, barely gets glanced at, while interpersonal relationships get a korean drama level exposition.

I’ll tag along for a little while longer because the voice acting is stellar. The rest is meh IMHO

kmacmartin,

I almost checked out around then too, it gets a lot better in the respects you criticised as well as environment design.

I’d recommend hard mode for combat once your characters feel ready to advance. It isn’t that much harder, and at least the last chunk of the game is way too easy without it.

I’m looking forward to the B42 multi-player release so much! Can’t wait!
