Fenixp Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 (edited) All right, turns out Star Traders: Frontiers is basically WH40k: Rogue Trader: The game. With some Dune thrown into the mix. It's progressively growing more and more on me. Edited August 3, 2018 by Fenixp 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raithe Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Tried some Yakuza 0 on the PC. It looks interesting, but the start... about 40 minutes of cut scenes, 10 minutes following someone, and 5 minutes of gameplay. Then I could save. When all I wanted to do was a quick look and see what it was like, I had to lose an hour. 2 "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."

SonicMage117 Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Still til this day, I much prefer Sleeping Dogs and John Woo's Stranglehold over Shenmue and Yakuza. Not to say that the latter two are bad games by any means. Just that the prior two get to the point much more quickly via less filler. Just what do you think you're doing?! You dare to come between me and my prey? Is it a habit of yours to scurry about, getting in the way and causing bother? What are you still bothering me for? I'm a Knight. I'm not interested in your childish games. I need my rest. Begone! Lest I draw my nail... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katphood Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 (edited) @SonicMage You could get married in Fallout 2. Hell, you could even get widowed. Also, Stranglehold was an absolute snooze fest, not to mention that it is totally weird to compare a third-person shooter to an action-adventure game. Tried some Yakuza 0 on the PC. It looks interesting, but the start... about 40 minutes of cut scenes, 10 minutes following someone, and 5 minutes of gameplay. Then I could save. When all I wanted to do was a quick look and see what it was like, I had to lose an hour. You only get long cutscenes once you progress through story-missions/chapters. Take your sweet time to explore the city before heading out for the next story mission. Edited August 3, 2018 by Katphood There used to be a signature here, a really cool one...and now it's gone.

Zoraptor Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 The ultimate end point of Bethesda's dialogue progression game to game is communicating entirely in emoticons. I can hear Todd and Pete hyping the concept as revolutionary even now. @SonicMageYou could get married in Fallout 2. Hell, you could even get widowed. You could also be a porn star You could pimp your spouse out and make them a p0rn star as well. F2 really was well ahead of the curve. It was even early enough that same sex marriage didn't trigger claims of teh SJWs taking over. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostofAnakin Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Another issue I have with XCOM 2 is it doesn't seem to give you any chance to actually level up some soldiers other than your "A Team". There aren't enough side missions that are moderately easy in order for you to level up some extras, so I end up having to bring along my best soldiers every time. It's like the designers made this game when they were hopped up on sugar where there's not even a second to take in what's going on.

SonicMage117 Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 (edited) I watched people playing MY game, in one particular instance I saw someone who was already married, it seemed they were building a virtual life. Then I noticed them doing something very strange. In the game, their wife's father was the mayor, a very wealthy man, and they killed him. Then they went back into the house and killed the wife, it then dawned on me: When the man died, all his money would be left to the daughter and when she died, all the money would be left to the player. So the player ended up with all the town's gold. The underrated beauty and freedoms of action rpg and consolist game... Fable.

Lexx Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) I did 55km today. Shouldn't have done it in that heat... When I made a break to drink the cold water from my thermos, it felt so good. In this very moment, it felt better than anything else I could possibly have. 0.5l really wasn't enough, though. Lost about 6kg since I started 2 months ago. Crazy how fast it goes if you just do a bit exercise every week. /Edit: Well sheet, looks like that went to the wrong thread. I forgot that you can't ninja-open a bunch of threads in this forum and then expect said forum to correctly assign your written post to the thread you're actually really in.

Agiel Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) In spite of being the biggest Homeworld fan here I somehow got sidetracked half-way through Deserts of Kharak when it first came out. I finally came around to finishing it recently and man what a journey. There's a level of craft to that game that's hard to find in games of its league, from the sense of scale the artists instill into the player, to the idle unit banter, to the tracks in the sand left by a lone Baserunner making its way across the desert (even with the budgetary might of Blizzard the in-engine cinematics of Starcraft fail to be as cinematic as this game). Looking forward to whatever Blackbird Interactive comes out with next. Edited August 4, 2018 by Agiel 2 Quote “Political philosophers have often pointed out that in wartime, the citizen, the male citizen at least, loses one of his most basic rights, his right to life; and this has been true ever since the French Revolution and the invention of conscription, now an almost universally accepted principle. But these same philosophers have rarely noted that the citizen in question simultaneously loses another right, one just as basic and perhaps even more vital for his conception of himself as a civilized human being: the right not to kill.” -Jonathan Littell <<Les Bienveillantes>> Quote "The chancellor, the late chancellor, was only partly correct. He was obsolete. But so is the State, the entity he worshipped. Any state, entity, or ideology becomes obsolete when it stockpiles the wrong weapons: when it captures territories, but not minds; when it enslaves millions, but convinces nobody. When it is naked, yet puts on armor and calls it faith, while in the Eyes of God it has no faith at all. Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of Man...that state is obsolete." -Rod Serling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lexx Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 The game of "stop getting fatter". It's quite annoying at times and certainly not as easy to breeze through as Yoga Fire was on veteran difficulty. 2 "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."
