discussion Anti-Social & Lurker - Hideout spot

Haha. Can't let fan bases determine your own critiques! But I think it's totally fine to not think these games are as revolutionary as people say.
To add to your list, Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Another game that came out and "revolutionised" everything and is shielded from critique online. I enjoyed it, but it wasn't the Zelda I love. It was a good game, but a bad Zelda game - in my eyes.



You've both just reminded me about something actually!
My friend who basically only plays FromSoft games... Actually he's a terrible gamer. Barely ever played games and he's shit at most of them. But he loves DS. It seems like such an unlikely pairing, he fell in love with the atmosphere more than anything. If the games are "impossible" it would be impossible for him, who is almost a casual gamer, but they're not. It's learn attack patterns, etc. Like you and @Vkun say
However, I'd disagree about one thing - I think its fair to still call them hard. And I don't think that, just because other games out there might be harder, it means DS are easy or "common sense". They're actually really punishing games, and to say they're not is a disservice. But what they're not, is impossible. And what they're not, is unfair. I think that's the difference. I think FromSoft do a LOT of internal work to ensure their games straddle that line really nicely, where their games are hard, but fair.

Oh, and all this Nier: Automata talk is making me want to play through it all over again... All 1 million times.

I got a friend like that to IRL but they keep trying to convince that there is no harder game than Souls, then they gets salty when I joke about any one who fast can curb stomp the portags of of any Souls game out of existence, weather its from eastern devs or Western dev

I prefer the only one I have no interest in is 11 and 14, I prefer XIII ,XV and VII Rebirth compared to the disaster that is 16

Same. Not interested in 11 or 14. 10 was amazing though. 9 was good too but didn't age too well. Will get to Rebirth and 16 soon. Didn't realize 16 was disappointing. That sucks. I'm already disappointed they brought Zack back in 7. Spinoff characters should stay spinoff characters. Cloud X Aerith for the win. Or Cloud X Aerith X Tifa X Yuffie X Jessie X anything else that moves excluding Zack. I hope they kill him off again in the 3rd game

I loved XIII, but liked XV a lot less.
It's still a good game, but you know, what we had definitely was not worth the near 15 years wait for it from when it got announced as Versus XIII. Also i prefer turn based to action based

XV ending was rushed and sucks but the rest is a damn masterpiece. Turn based? Don't get me started on Baldur's Gate 3 complaints again

I really tried but I failed to get any enjoyment out of BotW. After 2 hours, I stopped and deleted. Too many better things to play...like the Pokemon games

If the story can hook me I like turn Base and Action Persona 1-5 , Tales of
XIII XII-2 and LR could of been 1 game with 2 disc Blue Rays but Because someone with green X did not want to use blue-ray and use dinky DVDs that fucked up development for both games along with other contributing factors in the background.

Hey fellow lurkers, I made this account not long before all this stuff with the coins and I think it's about time I start grinding for them.

To start with, does anyone have any recommendations for holiday cookie recipes? I just recently made a bunch of peanut butter blossoms and must've gained 5 pounds inhaling them all.

I mean, i was just making the comparison to tie in my reason why i liked XIII more
I wouldn't call XV a masterpiece even before the ending/ last hour or so, but it certainly was a great game until then.

The thing I like best about snow is the reaction those in the South (Texas , Georgia etc) have to just a couple flakes whilst we in the North don't even bother with jackets if it is less that 4 inches. (10 cm)

Being from the north and living in the south, I can confirm this is true. We almost never get snow where I live, but even when it rains, the drivers are idiots and there are so many accidents.

It's fine, there are no set topics and therefore can't derail the conversation.

How the heck is this drifting?!?!? At the end it looks like the engine gets pulled back to the outside track (it might not, I haven't broken it down by frames... so.... shrugs.)

Your heart, huh

It gets blood pumped to it from the heart!

Dayaaamm...
I wanna know the source.

You and me both! There should be a "gif Wikipedia" that links all the gifs to the sources.

Unrelated to the above... How come sometimes when you quote someone you get pictures in the reply, but other times you just get linked "attachments" even if they were pictures in the message itself?

Thanks for your assistance. It's always appreciated.

I am the same, case in point, i still liked XV despite it being action based.
Also big fat YES to persona, all the homies love Persona. Which one was your favourite? I still need to finish 1 as well as both versions of 2, so i don't have a definitve answer yet for myself.

Cant say story wise there amazing in there own right, gameplay wise 5, a complete iron out blend of turn base and Social Ranks from persona 3 with no bs, and they fine tune it more with Royal

Story of 16 got hit hard with D.E.I harder than Rebirth. Shit 16 don't even feel like a Final Fantasy. Id give them slack if it played like Dissidia but no. If I want to play God of war or Devil May Cry Id play those instead.
XV ending was rushed I think because they took Namura of the project but didn't want to trash the %70 of the game

I wanna go back and get another P5R playthrough now thanks

I wouldn't call XV a masterpiece even before the ending/ last hour or so, but it certainly was a great game until then.

Ending as in around chapter 10 onwards started to feel progressively more rushed. Probably before that. So maybe the first 2/3rds of the game were great. Loved that Ignis alternate ending in his DLC though. Everyone survives including Noctis. I don't like sad endings unless It's ever Zack Fair or Leon Kennedy dying. Or DMC Nero

Haven't played any but I'm patiently awaiting Denuvo removal on P5R PC

That's unfortunate. I'll keep it low on my list

Good evening everyone!
The second Monday of the week was hard here, and tomorrow will be a full-meeting day. Wish me luck!

Yeah, I am not hugely into gore movies. Deathbell is bit too much gore for my like. I usually dont know directors either, but recently, I been more fascinated by certain directors of Japanese Horror. I should actually learn some USA directors. I just often get lazy lol. As for Asian Horror, I agree, these days Hollywood has gone to the toilet sadly. They used make so many very decent Horror and movies in general, but I agree, Korea are certainly getting very good, and Japan is still number 1 for certain style, like Horror and some action. I even seen some decent Chinese movies sometimes.

I actually had to look up DeathBell. You are right it is S Korean. I thought was Japanese. My bad, but I never seen it, just heard about it, or read it online while ago. Did you watch this one?

Yeah, Death Bell has a lot of gore. I'm ok with gore, but in horror, I prefer when the horror is from a man, and not a supernatural entity. Man I know how to deal it, supernatural is more complicated... kkkkkkk

Yes, its been a while. I even watched Gosa 2 (Death Bell 2), but is not as good as the first one.

Good morning everyone!

Might wanna look into changing password on your NSO?
The thief might have access to your stuff too then...
But awesome you got your save!

Had a look on it. But maybe already removed my account from the Switch.
But changed my password, just in case!

Yes, and have been enjoying it to the fullest, but at home, I will not bring it outside for a while!

I remember doing the last stretch really easily and fast, maybe it was more an hour, i don't know, but i certainly don't think it was an entire third of the whole game, that sounds like way too much.
Have fun with Royal!

Anyone doing a super sweet celebration for page 3000? We're probably going to hit it in the next 24 hrs.

I think it depends on movie. I like the human horror because, yes, humans can be dealt with and be killed, but vampire horror or werewolf can be good fun too, and I like the ghost ones because in some Japanese ghost horror, that is more like detective investigation style with ghost protagonist is to me, something sinister and often it is not always about killing the ghost, but rather find out why it is haunting a person or place. I guess I like many kind of subgenra in movies and horror. It needs to have a decent storyline plot

I'm out. Sweet dreams everybody

I remember reading that they started rushing and cutting a lot of things after Altissia but who knows

@mime Sullys has a question for you

 

[User_108364]

Anyone doing a super sweet celebration for page 3000? We're probably going to hit it in the next 24 hrs.

I'm happy to announce that the first post on page 3000 will be molested by @conzibald, put on @Evil Surgeon's list, bonked by @-Bonk-, hammered by @Shawnchapp, as well as viciously attacked by a raccoon who shall remain nameless.

On the other hand, they will probably receive an emotional support goblin by @Flaming1.

That does ring a bell, might have read those same news sometime in the past.
But i also don't even remember when that occurs in the game.
XV was a long time ago, i was still working on my first job at the time, wasn't forklift certified yet

Hello All.

As much as I like some wrestling in other promotions, I never have the time to anything but wwe. But I'm glad for them because wwe has finally raised their game to where it's fun to watch now.

I didn't start watching WWE again until Cody went over, also I actually enjoyed the first Joker but lots of my friends didn't.

Hey fellow lurkers, I made this account not long before all this stuff with the coins and I think it's about time I start grinding for them.
