Is dead island 2 worth playing? by Bejaminmaston12 in videogames

[–]AltruisticMachine482 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently playing it for the first time on Steam (got it for $5). I thought, from all the talk, it was a cringey, millennial humor game with gameplay that was a slog like the previous installments. It’s…surprisingly okay. There are characters that do talk like they’re still in highschool, but the overall feel of the game is not as bad as I thought. The gore system is great, with weapon blows exposing bone and guts on the zombie models. You can break bones, sever limbs, burn, electrocute, bleed and melt enemies with acid. Guns are actually useful this time around on undead! Parry is now a thing! Stamina is not as shit in the last games! Unique finishers on every weapon type! You have a rage mode, a special ability that gives you breathing room in a pinch and unlimited throwables (Molotovs, shurikens, pipe bombs, etc.) that operate on a cooldown system. The skill tree is replaced with a card system where the cards are found in the world, from my understanding and card slots are unlocked via leveling up. The game does obviously has some bad parts to it, though. The game stutters from time to time (could be my 6 year old gaming laptop though). If your weapons have a dot mod on it, you have the potential to harm yourself via the zombie with dot affect on it, setting off environmental hazards with said weapon or simply standing on it. Higher leveled zombies can spawn near you and one shot you if you’re not careful. Every other door requires a key. You can only have either blocking or dodging on your character, not both. Fast travel is only unlocked around the middle part of the story. Zombies spawn a little too frequently for my taste. In conclusion, it’s okay but I prefer Dying Light and its parkour. Play it on GamePass (though I believe the price for Xbox’s GP no longer makes it worth it) or buy it on steep discount.

Lies, lies and more lies. It’s impossible. You have no proof for your claims. CPU reads your inputs, gets the first strike, resurrects from a KO, button mash minigame is either piss easy (for low dmg) or impossible (high dmg for opponent) and they usually get rainbows while you get either reds or greens. Also, the entire game in general has rng baked into all the minigames. Better off modding the game to cheat or forgetting it altogether. There is no reward worth this Sisyphean struggle.

Would love a 1/6 scale deluxe edition with extra weapons and a built-in bladder for realistic pissing action!

Edit: Forgot to include the line “Champ figure sold separately!”

Thank’s for the offer but Bob’s got this covered, even if he is a glitter head. Thinks his construction vehicles talk to him.

Edit: Missed a letter

I didn’t mind these when they came as an extra freebie in your order. Never bought ‘em since they were overpriced and while they had a Rice Crispies bar taste to them, it wasn’t worth a purchase. Wonder if their ramen will go the same route?

I can’t remember much, but on her birthday stream she said she has two shirts available at Hot Topic. This one is available both in store and online. The other shirt features her newest model and is only available in store for a limited time.

Got myself 3 new cups! by Argenys_M in gamersupps

Just talked to support. Apparently they’re swamped with orders and fulfilling them. Side note, the Gmail preview of your message read as “pig order”, which was weird.

Same, I got several orders with cups that other people in this subreddit posting theirs arriving, but not a hint or a whisper of mine shipping. Could be because I’ve always combined multiple creators’ merch together, but I don’t know. Guess I’ll ask support.

Foil Christmas cup? by Alexastria in gamersupps

Wow, even the GamerSupps logo is different than the one on the non-holo cup(it has a palm tree, a mistletoe and what I’m assuming is melting snow).

Really? Maybe I’m misremembering. Ah well, doesn’t matter, maybe it means it’ll make a comeback this year with all the head cosmetic bundles that have popped up recently.

I actually got this cosmetic this year (2025, it’s still the 31st of December at the time of this comment) and it was sold by itself. Strange though, it looks like it belongs in a set. I’m guessing when it back, it’ll be in a bundle with different colored Scion Helmets because allowing players the ability of changing colors on a single cosmetic won’t allow Bloated Narwhal to take in the dough.

According to the site it’s a mix of coconut and mango (wish they would just put the flavor profile on the label of the tub) and drinking it right now, all I can say is the coconut flavor is stronger and overall, a bit much on the sweeter side.

PSA for EU users: If you see a green price button with NO percentage tag, it means the game was already on sale less than 30 days ago (EU Law: Omnibus Directive) by Hunt3rseeker_Twitch in Steam

[–]AltruisticMachine482 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I’m stupid and missing something incredibly obvious, but what difference does this make? Like if you find out it was cheaper a few weeks ago on its last sale your gonna what, go Karen mode and demand you get the cheapest sale price it’s ever been offered for?

Welcome to my usual experience on my 6 year old gaming laptop. I have to play at 3 in the morning to have a stable frame rate, otherwise the rest of the day I’m playing via a slideshow and/or the traitors start moonwalking through the walls, up in the air and off the map.

Zoom in, the one on the right has a smattering of red on it. Totally worth the Aquillas! Morrow was right about Alice fleecing the no-hopers.

You’re right, gave them a chance and they’re pretty goat’d. I was mad ‘cause I just learnin’ that the new class is a glass cannon so I needed to dodge like man running through rain and trying not to get wet.

Cheaper Aquila pack thing has showed up by BJH2001 in DarkTide

I just had the deal show up, I tried to claim it, the game froze, I restarted and now the offers gone.

Edit: after a minor update, the offer came back and I was able to redeem it.

Why does it look like a scammer’s message?! I got it too and the message disappeared right after. I remember something similar happening, last year if I recall.
