LAST GAME TO BE DESCUSHED WINS!

Control has been pretty cool when the hard boiled detective narration isn't making my eyes roll into the back of my head.

I bought it for cheap and I got bored in 30 mins. Does it get any better?

Cid · Post by **Cid** » Mon Sep 14, 2020 2:39 am

I suppose that depends. What about it bored you?

WaWard · Post by **WaWard** » Mon Sep 14, 2020 11:15 am

pretty much everything tbh

I'm still trying to finish the extra story in Xenoblade Definitive Edition. The actual added story is crap, but the side quests are better. I tried to just rush to the last boss and it fucking obliterated me (twice), so I'm grinding sidequests and can hopefully beat the fucker and start playing a different Switch game soon!

Will be finishing Yakuza 4 in the next few days as well

Finished it now. Turns out I wasn't under-levelled, I was just trying to beat the last boss with default armour equipped and no gems set

Played about 90 minutes of extra stuff and tried again. The boss didn't even make a dent on my party! Now I'm ready to play Mario games when they arrive this week!

Control seemed kind of interesting but these guys travelling through walls to get at you even in supposed safe rooms really turned me off. Also the respawning because fcuk that shit.

I have always despised Call of Duty games and had no interest in Battle Royales but I installed Warzone (which is free) yesterday and I must say, solo is not bad but trios is fun as hell. Haven't played duos yet. I had one round where the other two guys on my team got taken out pretty early, so I had to go on this intense Solid Snake mission across half the damn map full of 100 other players, quietly taking out some dudes and sneaking past others, to buy them back into the game. Then when I actually pulled it off they were like YEAH CID THAT'S MY BOY. Feltgoodman.

Got Overwatch too. Bastion is the best.

I've subscribed to Beatmania IIDX Infinitas for a month. The game has been around for a few years but has very recently had an upgrade and is now h-res and runs faster. Probably won't subscribe after the month is up (the game goes down for maintenance every day at what is 9-11pm here) but at least I'd have satisfied my curiosity (and gotten some use out of the ludicrously large arcade style controller I have.

I salute anyone who has mastered that game. This shit looks insane.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Wed Sep 16, 2020 6:48 am

Got a lot of friends who play at that level but I’ve never managed it. I go years without playing and my skill dips back down. Takes ages to get back up and even then I’m never at the level where I’m perfecting hard stuff. I’m happy just passing songs. To an outsider, my play level probably looks impossible as well though.
That video is a outdated by a decade. That’s probably considered easy stuff now

Lord Golbez · Post by **Lord Golbez** » Wed Sep 16, 2020 7:12 am

THat does indeed look insane.

Onto Yakuza 5 now.

Lord Golbez · Post by **Lord Golbez** » Fri Sep 18, 2020 11:57 pm

I'm currently playing and near the end of Yakuza 5. Would have finished already if I wasn't trying to max out stuff in preparation for Amon.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Sat Sep 19, 2020 7:06 am

Did all but the final sub story in 4. Couldn’t be arsed with four super bosses in a row when I have more games to get through.

WaWard · Post by **WaWard** » Sat Sep 19, 2020 1:23 pm

I’m playing Tony Hawk PS 1+2 (the remake).

the core gameplay hasn’t changed much and it’s still very good

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Sat Sep 19, 2020 1:50 pm

Can't recall ever playing a Tony Hawk game, but I must have at some point. Started Mario 64 and Mario Galaxy last night.

WaWard · Post by **WaWard** » Sat Sep 19, 2020 4:57 pm

They’re good Arcady games

I haven’t listened to so much ska since 2G lol

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Sat Sep 19, 2020 5:27 pm

sort it out!

Reiji · Post by **Reiji** » Sat Sep 19, 2020 11:15 pm

After seeing all these screenshots/memes of Among Us, I played it for the first time - gotta admit it's addicting, especially with how quick the rounds are.

Cid · Post by **Cid** » Sat Sep 19, 2020 11:34 pm

I've been curious about that one. What are you playing it on?

Reiji · Post by **Reiji** » Sun Sep 20, 2020 6:20 am

Initially iPad (free with ads), but it's easier on PC $5 on Steam since you can WASD instead of using a touchscreen joystick.

Once in a while, other players bitch about the iPhone screen being too small for the touch joystick.

It was actually quite easy. I beat all but one on the first try and you don't have to retry from the beginning if you lose on one boss, if I remember correctly. That said, it took a lot of prep time to make it that easy, so while the boss fight itself wasn't all that, I suppose the prep time would be an unnecessary drain you might not want to bother with (depends whether you'd already maxed out levels and done enough completion lists to get the right equipment). I'd also be hesitant to call all of them superbosses. The first one really just isn't. The second one kind of is. The third...well he might be capable of it, but if you have the right equipment he's a joke. The last one is the true superboss (although that's not the one I died one time on).

4 was the first one I did all substories on. Before that the games all had some minigame substories that were just too hard for me. 4 has far fewer substories and seems to have almost done away with minigame based substories. Same with 5.

Oh I'm down to give it a try if you're on Steam. I don't think you're on my friends list though. https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197981483833/

Is it on Epic Game Store? I just prefer gaming on PC with the superior games store.

Doesn't look like it's on Epic Games. There are other sites saying you can download it standalone, but I'm not sure how reputable those are.

The customizable rules can really shift gameplay though. Almost everything is tweakable including the number of Impostors, movement speed, amount of busywork you give the Crewmembers, cool down time between kills, line of sight, etc.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Mon Sep 21, 2020 6:32 am

I don’t even know what it is.

Cid · Post by **Cid** » Fri Sep 25, 2020 5:02 am

I can't get enough of Warzone. Won my first game today in trios. Our last teammate standing came in clutch at the end by hiding behind a chimney, taking out four dudes, then hopping down and tossing a C4 over a wall to kill the last guy.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Sat Oct 03, 2020 1:27 pm

Finished a game that's been on my backlog for a while this morning, Undertale. Never got far into it on PC, so I bought it again on Switch a couple of weeks back. Will definitely go for a second playthrough soon!

Fei Ayanami · Post by **Fei Ayanami** » Sat Oct 03, 2020 2:46 pm

I did like that game when I played a bit of it on Steam. I am bad at finishing games on the computer though.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Sat Oct 03, 2020 7:49 pm

Same here. That's why I bought it again on Switch.

Lord Golbez · Post by **Lord Golbez** » Sun Oct 04, 2020 4:05 am

I did a run of Undertale, but I never finished the no kill run I started.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Sun Oct 04, 2020 7:29 am

That’s what I’m doing next.

Fei Ayanami · Post by **Fei Ayanami** » Sun Oct 04, 2020 3:16 pm

Anyone play Bastion? It’s on sale right now on Switch. Worth it?

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Sun Oct 04, 2020 6:09 pm

I played the first half hour years ago but it didn’t grip me. I know people who liked it though.

Cid · Post by **Cid** » Wed Oct 07, 2020 9:38 pm

I never got far into it either. I thought the narrator was really annoying.

Fei Ayanami · Post by **Fei Ayanami** » Thu Oct 08, 2020 2:23 am

The sale is over and I didn’t buy it!

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Thu Oct 08, 2020 7:00 am

It’s on sale all the time. I think I also have it on Steam as part of a bundle (as well as PlayStation from when it was a PS+ game).

Fei Ayanami · Post by **Fei Ayanami** » Thu Oct 08, 2020 12:05 pm

lol me too I just will never play it on steam

WaWard · Post by **WaWard** » Thu Oct 08, 2020 12:29 pm

I'm still playing Tony Hawk, once a week or so. At this rate I will finish it by xman

Playing the Yakuza 5 remaster and picked up Trials of Mana again(dropped it for Xenonlade).

Lord Golbez · Post by **Lord Golbez** » Sun Oct 18, 2020 9:45 am

Yakuza 5 is massive. I'm still playing it. Although I've been near the end and doing completionist stuff for awhile now.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Sun Oct 18, 2020 3:32 pm

We're probably about 2/3 through. The final substory with the boss rush in Yakuza 4 pissed me off so I probably won't bother doing everything in this one.

Lord Golbez · Post by **Lord Golbez** » Sun Oct 18, 2020 3:48 pm

Yeah. I've been trying to fill out completion lists for the prizes in case anything will help with the final substory, but I overprepared in 4 because it wasn't that hard, so I should just give it a shot.

Also, because I got bored of some of the completion stuff I started moving on to other games, so I should just finish 5 already.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Sun Oct 18, 2020 4:35 pm

Funny that we're both playing the same game though.

Lord Golbez · Post by **Lord Golbez** » Sun Oct 18, 2020 6:46 pm

Except you were still on Yakuza 3 when I started Yakuza 5 so you're going through much faster than I am.
