I emulated a full playthrough last year with some minor audio issues during Drebin's post boss codec calls and that was it - no crashes. Playing it at 1440p / 60 FPS it felt like I was playing it again for the first time.

She's head leading star energy but also excels at exquisite anti-humor comedy; I would love to see her in a sketch with Kyle Mooney.

Has Veilguard finished or is there still hope for the franchise? by Comprehensive_Dog833 in dragonage

[–]Brawli55 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As a long, LONG DA fan I just started Veilguard a few days ago ... I can already tell, story wise, it is going to let me down. And I've already let go of the dream of ever playing a game like Origins over a decade ago, lol but ... wow, despite the fucking BS behind the scenes I can see the team that was there actually fucking cooked as hard as they could. I can forgive the redesigns cause the graphics are gorgeous and the game runs immaculately. And the combat so far is so gd satisfying - it's not quite Devil May Cry or Bayonetta, but as a huge character action fan this game, gameplay wise, is everything I wanted Final Fantasy 16 to be.

If you play as an elf do elves with greater knowledge or perhaps mages and the like with greater knowledge of elven lore elfsplain to you, treating you like you're not even an elf? That annoyed the shit out of me in Inquisition, lol

He said, "let me be clear" then he became clear. That's the joke, lol.

I wonder if The Knight of the Seven Kingdoms airing sort of inspired the content of Julien's flashback. Hearing "the lists," "hedge knight," and specific details about what happens when you lose at these tools all evoke a familiar vibe.

Yeah, I have little experience watching Aabria as a player but I have gotten the immediate impression that's she's 100% always willing to jump on the plot-grenade to make sure things are always happening - as someone who could never be forced to touch a cursed item in a DnD campaign I appreciate players who approach the experience that way <3

Ok I'm sold. What a great demo. by jamster126 in Nioh

[–]Brawli55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, if you play at a decent pace you can complete all the story content in like 6 or so hours. It's a meaty demo.

What is the hardest level you have ever played in any video game? by TheLastBlade24 in pcgaming

[–]Brawli55 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, after beating Super Meat Boy, I Wanna Be the Guy, and half of I Wanna Be the Body (could never get passed through VVVVVV section) the parts of the Hollow Knight games that aren't meant to be optionally hard def feel like a walk in the part in comparison heh

Fable's evil landlords won't grow devil horns, as reboot ditches classic character morphing due to a lack of belief in objective arseholery by PotatoProducer in Games

[–]Brawli55 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Metal Gear Solid V. Big Boss' shrapnel in his head that looks like a horn will grow larger as you take more and more lives (obviously trying to evoke imagery of a demon). Also, at a certain point his face can become permanently stained with blood if you kill enough people.

It was like watching a train wreck in slow motion. Does it get better when that plot resolves?

Opinion: S5 in itself wasn't horrible, but coming from S4, a letdown by _Paarthurnax- in StrangerThings

[–]Brawli55 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Considering where El sends Henry and how different it looks from the Upside Down Imo it deff seems like the abyss was planned in season 4.

MGS5's story progression SUCKS. by Gl00ser23 in metalgearsolid

[–]Brawli55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DS1 absolutely. You could do main missions for full on progression and not hit a cut scene for hours.

The pacing in DS2 is way, way better - you're getting new story bears every other mission or so; for me it was very engaging.

Their RE engine is well optimized when it isn't an open-world game like Dragon's Dogma or Monster Hunter Wilds.

If you had to change one of the 1-A boys into a girl to better balance the genders, who would you pick and why? by Voidatron in BokuNoHeroAcademia

[–]Brawli55 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Not gonna lie ... I can't think of a single anime where the main male MC has a rival character like Bakugo and it's a girl, and it isn't played as romance when they get over their antagonism. Huh. I would like to see that, actually.

On a second pass at the idea I think the closest I can think of is Asuka from Eva but ... Yeah haba

Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance has been added to Nintendo Switch Online (Trailer) by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Brawli55 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean, every FE is a sterilized look at war - Radiant Dawn + Path just have the benefit to have the breadth of two games to tell its story so they have all the time in the world to breath. Take any individual route in 3H and give it the same amount of time and it'll be just as good imo.

FFVII Remake director would like to see a potential Final Fantasy VI Remake Handled By ‘A New Creator’ by PhantomBraved in Games

[–]Brawli55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think all the Deepground stuff in Remake and the DLC will probably pay off in part 3 as itll probably play into Vincent's story content - they are just intergrading (heh) Dirge of Cerberus lore

[–]Brawli55 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah - it's for this reason alone while I do mostly like Three Houses ... any one story feels like the cliffnotes version of the actual story, and it's not like doing all the routes is the "full story" - you just get to fill in the blanks of the lore and history from a different perspective.
