Guest Slinky Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 - Very few weapons and armors in the game, not much change to play dress up That's a negative? Not to me, but I think it might be to Monte.
taviow Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 The Witcher is a very ****ing strong game. Very, very long too.

Oner Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 Planning on trying out MW:Living Legends later today. Anyone else who's playing it maybe? I was going to check it out today, after hearing about yesterday, but it seems they've already transitioned over to Crysis Wars, which I don't have yet. So, maybe in a couple weeks. I'm interested in hearing how it is. Well, I tried it out a bit. Needs some time to get used to. You start a match with 49,000 C-Bills and elemental armor and can buy weapons or tank or 'mechs, the latter two with 4-5 variants (no customising yet). There's a ****load of key commands you need to memorize, tho less than in MW4. There's some control issues with tanks, my harasser constantly fell over.

Tale Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 - Very few weapons and armors in the game, not much change to play dress up That's a negative? It's not an RPG if you can't play dress up. According to the Bioware forums, anyway. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Walsingham Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 I've seen The Witcher special edition silly-cheap. Is it any good? You will like it. Trust me. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.
Gorgon Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 I like playing Barbie dress up in my RPGs. I dunno what else that makes me. I'm pretty sure I'm not gay, or I would have acted on it by now. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
Monte Carlo Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 Thanks for all the thoughts on The Witcher, how does the combat system work? I can live with simple if it's fun.
Tale Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 Combat in Witcher is based on timing followup attacks for a combo and switching stances/swords based on enemies. Like one stance is better for area attacks. And one sword is better for monsters. That kind of thing. It's a juggling/timing act. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
CoM_Solaufein Posted April 2, 2011 Author Posted April 2, 2011 Fallout New Vegas. May start a new game since the FOOK mod has been updated. Probably look around and install more mods.

Tigranes Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 Fairly twitchy but not too twitchy, and it's fun enough. I say it works pretty well, though too simple, and it can be challenging. Anyway, just get the game.

Gorgon Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 Basically you just need to watch your position, don't get swarmed and don't step into any of their combos, other than that it's button mashing, but not as terrible as it sounds, there are force powers to use tactically.

Calax Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 on the getting swarmed thing, it can sometimes be ok to let yourself get swarmed and then jumping into the group kill style and just murder everyone. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.
Slowtrain Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 I've seen The Witcher special edition silly-cheap. Is it any good? It's the best rpg of the last 10 years give or take. imo, of course. Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.

HoonDing Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 Witcher melee combat's just an excuse to show off the awesome motion-captured animations. What makes combat interesting is the necessity to learn about monsters' strengths and weaknesses and preparing in advance with the correct oils and potions. At least, on hard difficulty. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 Finished Crysis 2. Pretty much the best shooter since HL2. And teh graphics! :drool: But the writing, man! It's just so bad, man, so bad.

Prophet's dialogue is bad, yeah. Thankfully he only shows up like twice. at least, he only shows up talking like that twice "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

Calax Posted April 4, 2011 Posted April 4, 2011 Played Dawn of War 2 Retribution. Picked up an Ork campaign... this is AWESOME! The Warboss is using the same accent as the others (that ****ney one) but he's also got the pirate inflection to it and he's wearing a big ol pirate hat. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition!
