zymagoras777, do games w Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. First time pay attention to the songs and I cried. This is the game that I cry over so many times. This is what I think about the game. Spoiler alert

Tried playing it but hate the combat system, all the timing things in it to be precise. It’s a pitty because I really liked everything else but having to retry multiple times to beat one slightly stronger enemy just kills the game for me.

neukenindekeuken,

Try dodging over parrying. Much more forgiving. Not nearly as precise. You can dodge most attacks the first time just by waiting to see when the attack is going to hit/land after the windup. I’d say by the end, I was dodging about 80-90% of the attacks, even from things I had never seen before just because the wind-up system is fairly predictable. Once you get the hang of it, dodging is super easy.

CatDogL0ver,

If you have the PC version, you get download the rest parry mod.

The timing is not more difficult than Rlden Ring or other action RPG. You can try dodge. One you get pattern, then do parry. The easy mode also makes it easier to parry

I play games to relax and have fun. If a games has people crying, then I don’t think I would find that fun.

Art can serve several purposes. Your tastes are valid as a preference, but fun and escapism are only a small part of what games as an art form can provide. Would you critique a piece of visual art (for example, Guernica) by saying “this isn’t very fun”?

Simulation6,

True, but it is what I want from a game, as I said, so I don’t think I would enjoy this one.

The music, story and art harmonizes in a way that caused me to sit and be sad for hours. The melancholy environment, the inevitability of death and the sorrow love eventually causes. It’s so fucking beautiful!

Just the start, losing Sophie to the gommage, the setting and music ties it all so damn well together. It’s beautiful and tremendously sad. The whole thing is such a masterpiece of what games can achieve. A game where the gameplay isn’t the best or groundbreaking, but combined with the art, music, tone and story, it flies up to one of the best games in recent years. If not more.

Hey, I’ll have you know my attention span is perfectl- ooh a squirrel.

endeavor,

Exactly! Leave my attention span alone like the lonely whales that hunt for food alone in their feeding areas. I reccomend taking a whale watching trip, just make sure you aren’t seasick but ginger candies can help stave that off. By the way you can grow ginger yourself, just dry it for a few days and plant it 2 inches deep and keep it moist. Not tiramisu but sponge cake moist but I prefer tiramisu if it is well made. The cake should be cold and fresh like spring water on a hot day

"Look at older games where the whole game is active gameplay and you have to be focused the whole time to win."

I can't 😂 We're talking about games where you game during the whole game as relics of an age bygone now?!

Lojcs, do gaming w Your Attention Span Is Ruining Gaming

It really is. I often find myself avoiding long games with intermittent text or dialog (RPGs!) because I get bored when there’s none and want to listen to a podcast but can’t because then I’ll miss the next dialog.

There’s also the “I’ve got something to do so I can’t deal with starting up a game” and then spending an hour on youtube

prole,

I’ve got a problem with having to watch YouTube or listen to a podcast while playing. And that includes RPGs… Though Expedition 33 has had me engrossed enough to shut the laptop while I’m playing

I think it's Gaming Historian that does my head with that, or at least used to. Comedically slow.

N64 games never seemed blurry to me. But Wii games did.

Low res textures that would get resized with a bilinear filter, as opposed to the PS1 which used no filtering, resulting in a sharp but pixelated look.

The first looked good but they sold themselves so is a big nope for me

What does “They sold themselves” mean? To whom?

MurrayL,

Maybe they’re still mad that the first game was on Google Stadia?

Cris16228,

Uh no?

TinyShonk,

Wow what a reliable looking link, I should definitely click on it…

Cris16228,

For lazy people like you:

Exclusivity period

Journey to the Savage Planet was Epic Games Store exclusive for 1 year

Yermaw,

It’s not the laziness so much, it’s the KKK right at the start

Cris16228,

Eh not my site ¯_(ツ)_/¯

MajesticElevator,

Journey to the Savage Planet was Epic Games Store exclusive for 1 year

Who cares. They’re obviously doing that because Steam takes 30% and they believe they can get more revenue from EGS.

EGS isn’t as bad as you make it seem. It was the only viable strategy for EGS to implement themselves (this and free games). Breaking Steam’s monopolistic position can only bring good.

If I really wanted to be upset, I’ll be at playstation exclusives or similar.

Cris16228,

Who cares. They’re obviously doing that because Steam takes 30% and they believe they can get more revenue from EGS.

No sales = better. Yeee but compare what epic gives and what steam gives to devs AND users then shit talk about the split

EGS isn’t as bad as you make it seem. It was the only viable strategy for EGS to implement themselves (this and free games). Breaking Steam’s monopolistic position can only bring good.

Ahahahahahah okay! They care so much about you as user that they don’t even bother to improve their launcher after all these years! Why would anyone want to use such an inferior launcher? No real review system, no customization no forums to look for guides, communicate with devs or others. Ooh and it didn’t work well :) they stopped with exclusives because it wasn’t profitable for them… I wonder why…

I hope AMD rethinks their decision to abandon the high end because NVIDIA being the only option is going very badly

thingsiplay,

I think AMD more or less paused than abandoned the high end market.
