hanzohattori12 Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Just realized I have a homebrew that installs cheats for my 3ds games, holy shit!

I'm not digging it. Especially now that I have to essentially start over with skill trees and weapon customization. It doesn't help that Abby is such an unlikable character. I'm seriously considering just playing the rest of the game trying to see how many ways I can make her die. These are just early impressions with controlling Abby. If the game is intentionally making the player feel this way by design, there better be a big payoff. Otherwise, I can see why people dislike this game. Which is a shame.

MillionX Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 A friend just told me about this...how in the world did I miss this one?! It's like this was made specifically for me... On another note---it would be so nice if they would've ported Prototype 1 and 2 for Switch. (*heh, then again this is yet another issue solved by the Steam Deck) Part 1 had such a great moment of revelation there... it's quite an old game but....eh I'll still spoiler-tag it: Spoiler When "Alex Mercer" realizes that he's... not actually Alex Mercer. It IS the virus creature itself. The real Alex Mercer died that fateful night....and he became the first person that the virus "copied". Seemingly because Alex was the first human it copied...in every way, mentally and physically... the creature went on from that moment believing it truly was Alex Mercer, complete with all his memories and knowledge, personality, etc. Some probably saw it coming but that moment of realization was too cool, man... I loved it. Faltimar the Dark and Sonichuman 1 1 Quote Link to comment

ZioSerpe Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I'm surprised to see that we do not have an official FGC retirement home (FFXIV) thread, so I'll tell my story here, I beat China, I beat Steam I beat SQUEX in one fell swoop today, all thanks to porn! For those who are unaware I'm an avid MMORPG player and I've been playing FFXIV on an off since when it was shaite, meaning 1.0 I've collected lamps from Amal'jas son. Ya'll don't even know! Anyway basically FFXIV has been the only game I play that is not a fighting game for the longest time. Love the game. I lost my original 1.0 account a long ass time ago, or rather, I didn't keep playing on it because I bought the game on steam on a sale at the end of ARR and I couldn't use my old account on steam because Square is dumb as whole fuck. For those who don't know a Steam copy of the game is considered different from a PC copy of the game (they use the same launcher and you have a separate account from your steam account on anyway, but your game is always and forever going to be a steam copy). Anyway, some years ago FFXIV landed in china, but for some reason they have their own servers. FFXIV gets removed from the Taiwanese Steam store as a result. Don't ask me why, Taiwan is clearly not china and our store is not the chinese store, is the Taiwanese store, even tho you cannot then pick Taiwan as a goddamn country when Steam asks you to chose your country of residence from a drop down menu. This means that to buy expansions I need to change my store. In the past that was easy, log in with a VPN or have a friend from Italy log my account, go to change store location, they see the log in in Italy, they let you pick Italy. Not anymore. Now you try and change store country and they tell you to contact them. It can fuck you up bad. After failing miserably at buying the new expansion through a steam key I hatched a plan of bullshitting my way into having them change my store country while covering my ass. I contact and start my lie. They answer me with a pre-made text that answers literally none of the question I asked in my elaborate lie. But they do send me a link to a steam page that explains an even newer way to change store country. Just buy something from that store they say. VPN up find the cheapest game on my store LEWDPOCALYPSE 50 cents 1.buy the shitty lewd game made in flash that is clearly a fucking newgrounds game. 2.Store is now italian 3.Buy Endwalker 4.go to mogstation 5.insert pre-order key 6.???? 7.PROFIT!

MillionX Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 (edited) Sure would be nice if game companies bothered to playtest things for 10 fucking minutes. I got BlightBound yesterday, and overall I like the game, but already I've run into an area that seems outright impossible due to an apparent glitch.... there's a spot where I'm supposed to go through a door after lighting up all 4 switches. I did that, and nothing happens, of course. I lit them up in different order....nothing happens. I changed them to all being "off"...still nothing. The door stays locked, there are no new enemies that appear, no "magic portal" that shows up, no other secret entrance or lever, or item, treasure chest, the objective waypoint doesn't change....you just CAN'T pass this goddamn room for no apparent reason other than the game seemingly "forgetting" to open the goddamn door. Oh and here's a nice bit of insult to injury---with that particular character I selected, this level is the only one marked "Easy" difficulty... all others are set to "Very Hard" and "Impossible", of course....thought I would just get in a quick level before work but nope. Also, when you quit to return to the base/camp area, you don't keep any of what you picked up there, no skill points, nothing. If that happens every time, I am not sure how that particular character can progress then unless someone carries him thru a "Very Hard" area via multiplayer.

Faltimar the Dark Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 @MillionX, I tried that Megaton Rainfall game out. Its pretty neat. Feels like a VR game. You're basically a god fighting off bad dudes... MillionX 1 Quote Link to comment
MillionX Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I imagine that would be pretty damn amazing as a VR game, yeah... I think one reason that game may have been overlooked and forgotten was the title; maybe I did see it before but just didn't give it a 2nd look since the name "Megaton Rainfall" sounds like quite a different kind of game/story. on Blightbound--- I started off with the mage characters of course... fortunately the first 2 are mostly the same in their abilities. I'm not sure if all of them will be like that....but there's a lot of playable character to unlock in that game...and I always love that, even if most are effectively alternate skins of the same character with *slight* ability differences. I would've enjoyed Fight-n-Rage even more if all those character unlocks were accessible in the main story mode. Gears 5 this week--- 5x EXP until next Monday! I haven't been in much of a Gears mood lately though... I hate that my regular crew all seemed to leave that franchise behind.... old college buddy and his wife haven't played it in years, and 2 others I know who were once all about it also haven't played much since part 3.

That actually is the funny or tragic thing depending on how you look at it. The game sold very well, but because it was another open world game coming in the shadow of some great Sony games like Horizon, God of War and Spider-Man plus hype for TLOU2 boiling for a while it reviewed so so and Sony was like naw when it was brought up for a sequel. It is good but it like F-Zero or until recently Advance Wars has been number crunched out of a future. Quote Link to comment

Despite my personal feelings on the subject, I'm not sure if I agree with what happened to this guy. That being said if he knew the type of company and environment he was in as well as how this comments could effect the company on a world wide scale then he probably shouldn't have decided to plant his flag without full well knowing the possible social repercussions...especially if he has any women who work for him that could be directly effected by this decision.

"Whord" minigame? haha not a chance in hell. -probably no awesomely disgusting toilet humor like the septic tank truck shenanigans from part 2. -Absolutely no kind of "cut to the point" sex scene as a "romance option" (*e.g.--in SR4-- your romance option with Kenzie is literally the character asking her "Hey Kenzie, wanna fuck?" then she slaps you and launches herself onto you, and they bone just like that. 😆) -I doubt there will be any strip clubs in the mix, or fetish-style clothing and sex dungeons, etc. etc. -Certainly nothing that even comes close to being a racial stereotype either, and there probably won't be any lgbtq people that are portrayed in a negative light under any circumstances....since, y'know...they're obviously superior to the rest of the lowly unwashed masses. ...just like it's a ridiculous notion that women would ever lie about anything.

Chadouken Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 TLOU 2 Spoiler I've made a little more progress with Abby, both in the game and with my feelings towards her. I still fucking hate her, but the game and story are engaging and I'm enjoying playing through her campaign. So far I've made her fall to her death, get shot by Scars, drown, and get eaten by several zombies, so I'm having fun with it.

I'm not a huge fan of the series but I thought being the more campy and ridiculous GTA was its selling point, no? ohhhh yeah and I forgot to mention... apparently they already abbreviated the name of the game's popular fast food place Freckle Bitch's to "FB's", of course. Also---supposedly the "Rim Jobs" place where you can upgrade your car...that name got changed too, of course....to "Jim Robs" or something like that. It's probably a safe bet that the more we find out about this game in the near future... the worse it's going to sound. It should be fun to watch just how badly they managed to screw this up in the name of "modern sensibilities" and being "progressive". Blightbound---y'know, it's getting a bit irritating how this damn game just takes a shit on your time... if you die in one of the dungeons...you don't get anything out of that. There's no exp/skill points, or gear you retain from that run...it's all lost....and the dungeons in this game take a long ass time. I don't think you even keep any gold that was picked up. So...if you reach a tough area that kills you over and over, you can't improve the character since you don't get to keep or upgrade anything like what you expect from a normal action-rpg. I got to the boss of one area earlier today...got killed and that was that. NOTHING to show for what was ultimately wasted time. Edited September 7, 2021 by MillionX Quote Link to comment
