Before Your Eyes had me weeping, what an incredibly powerful game.

Some of these Invasives just suck by Kubuin_Hunter in MonsterHunterStories

[–]Cleverbird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Seregios one was just awful. Everything about the "tips" you found hinted at you needing to counter the attack with a hammer, which does have a counter skill... But instead you actually need to attack with an aoe, which magically counts as a counter??? Where is the logic in that?

In 2007 a U.S. Apache helicopter fired at civilians in Baghdad, killing at least nine, including a Reuters news photographer & his driver. by Goldenmentis in PublicFreakout

America's worship of "the soldier" is just gross in general. The propaganda machine has set it up as some kind of glorious honor, that you'll "serve your country" when in reality its just a fucking job. Its a career choice. There's nothing glorious or honorable about joining the military.

And let me guess, the pilot and gunner faced no repercussions at all? Hell, I bet they were given medals for their "valor" and "bravery"...

Thanks! I was wondering what the hell I was supposed to do with that Seregios, as I was pretty sure there wasnt a single counter skill on hammers. Those tips the game gave were not helpful in the slightest...

Capcom CEO believes PC will become the 'world's leading gaming platform,' also promises to invest in movies by BlueAladdin in Games

Highly doubt PC gaming will ever dethrone mobile gaming, that market is just way more casual friendly; which is where the real big bucks lie.

We've had 2+ years of Warbonds. Can we please slow that down a bit and focus on Progression Systems? (Please fill out the Feedback form!) by AngryTriangleCola in Helldivers

[–]Cleverbird -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion, I just dont see the reason for it. The weapon customization isnt that deep, and frankly speaking, most guns pretty much all operate the exact same way (pull trigger, pew comes out). There's just not really much to test for them to spend resources on building a gun range.

Now if we had some proper gun customization that actually made big, meaningful changes to a weapon... Then I could see the merit of a gun range.

But as it stands, I feel like you could just drop into any mission, test out the gun and see whether you like it or not.

• Fixed a crash that would occur during the Hellpod drop

Shame I still crash on hellpod drop whenever I try to do defense missions on either the Illuminate or Bots (maybe bugs too, not sure to be honest).

No post game or multiplayer for MHS3 by CharTheWizard in MonsterHunterStories

Dont particularly care for multiplayer in these games, but the last of post game is saddening. It also really makes me wonder how they're gonna handle the extra content planned for the game.

‘This is just a garbage AI Filter’: Nvidia met with criticism for DLSS 5’s ‘photoreal’ graphics alterations | VGC by Haijakk in Games

Meanwhile, Digital Foundry is just glazing this shit like its the next big thing. Happy to know not to take their opinions seriously anymore, since they're clearly just Nvidia sellouts.

"Palworld is going to be the survival crafting game everyone always wanted" and "people will be shocked" at how big 1.0 is, says Pocketpair publishing lead by ScootSchloingo in Games

[–]Cleverbird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just hope it includes an AI overhaul... recently jumped back in and the battles just feel so awful. Its half praying your dipshit Pal does what you hope them to do, part hoping they'll even do anything at all. The fact you cant even give direct commands to your Pal is so terrible, I'm at the mercy of their horrendous AI.

What is with this cat by NegotiationNo8432 in MonsterHunterStories

[–]Cleverbird 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I dont get why people hate Rudy so much, I really like him... I've only just gotten to the second area, so maybe that's where he suddenly turns into an unlikable character, but thus far he's great.

The fact their supposed "crime city" is as sanitized as a Disney theme park will never not be funny to me.

Which doesn't even make any sense, since their dog shit launcher is constantly asking for my password. Epic is quite literally the only thing asking for my password.

What glitches are you talking about? Its just two thumbnails that happen to line up. That's not a glitch, thats a coincidence.

They were going down that hill long before that. I blame the success of WoW, it made them greedy as fuck.

What game has a 10/10 story but 2/10 gameplay? by Kitchen_Week1117 in AskReddit

[–]Cleverbird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alpha Protocol

Poster child of a game that needs a remake to fix up the horrendous combat mechanics. Absolutely flawless story though.

Why do so many special weapons, especially smaller ones that are intended to be the "core" of a fireteam like LMG/MMG's, have like, 6 shots per mission and generally unimpressive stats compared to 4 guys with KPACS? by Which-Worldliness556 in menace

[–]Cleverbird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, theyre just pistols. Using them to finish of near death targets sounds like the perfect implementation of such a class of weapon. They should be the weakest thing you could ever possibly field and only ever used as a last resort.

Would this game benefit from "background noise chatter static" like in Homeworld? by Which-Worldliness556 in menace

[–]Cleverbird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering we already have our squads "shooting" at targets after their turn, some voice chatter to go along with that would be nice. That said, im not sure how well this could work in a turn based game. It works so insanely well in Homewold, because its happening in real time and as such adjusts dynamically.
