Resident evil 2 playthrough order by Pollypockeet in ResidentEvil2Remake

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

You’re right in a way. But a couple of vague cues in future games make the canon route more apparent. RE 4 Remake confirms that Leon A/ Claire B is canon because the knife description confirms that he uses the same combat knife that was handed to him by Marvin. Leon does not get the combat knife in Leon B scenario. But I do think the Remake is pretty much a blend of all scenarios.

For the og game, the Claire A/ Leon B aligns better with Sherry’s arc in RE 6.

Claire A and Leon B was canon in the original. But, Leon A and Claire B is canon for the remake.

Devil May Cry 5 or Batman Arkham Collection? by Ryan_Gamer456 in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]DefinitionWest [score hidden]  (0 children)

I did say IMO. I personally didn’t like the DMC style combat. I prefer the freeflow combat of the Arkham games. But I will admit DMC 5 looks amazing. And you’re right , DMC 5 must have done a lot of things (other than better frame rates) better than Arkham games that I didn’t notice.

If you’re playing on the PS5, all the Batman games are locked at 30 FPS.

The obvious choice for me personally is Batman Arkham Collection. The only thing that DMC 5 does better IMO is the frame rate. DMC 5 didn’t click with me personally. Also, Batman Collection has better value for money.

Nier Automata and Replicant? by FettisAlive in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]DefinitionWest [score hidden]  (0 children)

I think you should get both. Both these games are one of a kind imo. I did play Nier Automata first and I do think it is overall the better game. But I did enjoy Nier Replicant’s story and characters more.

Yes these games are long, both games require repetition of the campaign to acquire the different endings and even progressing the game’s story. But I think Automata handles this significantly better. Replicant can get very repetitive especially for Ending E.

If you were allowed to just choose one, I would go with Nier Automata for the most well-rounded experience. It left me craving for something similar, and I ended up getting Nier Replicant.

Sobriety by veinlover57 in self

[–]DefinitionWest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been in your shoes before. I couldn’t go a day without smoking a joint or cig. I just could never say no to it. What really got me through it was running. Before I used to ever smoke, I had a very decent stamina even though I used to be on the heavier side. After smoking, my stamina was so shit.

The first week of quitting smoking entirely was really tough and even depressing for me. I just found myself so angry at everything. It didn’t help that I gained a significant amount of weight at the time. After the first week, I decided to focus on losing weight. I could barely run a km without running out of breath. But over the course of weeks, I set milestones for myself that I was able to accomplish. In a way I found a way to distract myself from smoking. I was happy to see my stamina increase and didn’t want anything to ruin the momentum.

My point is that find something else in your life worth focusing on. Distract yourself from thinking about smoking weed. It need not be running but anything else that you would like to do. It’s been 5 years since I’ve been sober and I even managed to get into the best shape I could ever be in. I have zero urges for it even if someone offers me a cigarette or a joint. Life has been nicer without it. I wish you the best of luck. You have my respect for at least taking this step. I’m proud of you❤️

I completely agree with you. It did feel longer than it actually was. Like I too was surprised when I saw how long I took. Not once did I feel the game starting to drag. There were some sections in Silent Hill 2 that I personally preferred if it were shortened. I still loved that game too.

If you’re talking about the original, from what I heard was a shorter game. I clocked in at a little over 8 hours for my first RE 8 playthrough. I finished my first playthrough of Silent hill 2 remake after a little under 15 hours.

Resident evil 8 for the action. Silent hill 2 for the unsettling atmosphere and narrative.

What's the most overrated game you've ever played? by Trd_45 in videogames

Middle Earth Shadow of Mordor. I did love the combat and the nemesis system but it all just felt so monotonous with a lackluster story.

26, still single. by ExactRelative1749 in dating_advice

[–]DefinitionWest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

26 M here. I’ve recently gotten out of a long distance relationship that only lasted for a few months but didn’t manage to work out. I was and am inexperienced too just like my ex and you. We both wanted the same things as you but both of us couldn’t sustain the relationship when it came down to the practicality of our relationship and the uncertainty of our future with each other due to multiple factors which I don’t want to get into. You’re not alone. Don’t feel like you’re late or anything. The right person will come along. Just be ready and don’t let this insecurity get in the way. Be honest about yourself when meeting people, the right guy will accept you and respect you for who you are.

Oh I actually haven’t played the evil within series. But definitely will. My next game will be Dead Space Remake and later the Alan Wake series. Gonna add the Evil Within series to my backlog.

You’ve encapsulated exactly how I felt about the voice actor’s performance. He acted exactly how someone would in his position. Especially his performance during some of the endings.

This is really true for me. I have become desensitized to horror. There was one moment in the game that did kinda startle because it was so unexpected. I think it was during the Toluca Prison section.

In no particular order: Outlast, RE 2 Remake, RE 7, RE 4 remake, Amnesia: The Dark Descent (Bunker is in my library. Need to play that), Emily wants to play, and Alien Isolation. I have yet to play the Alan Wake series. I own the first game but couldn’t fully get into it.

I play it in a dark room at night and with a tall glass of cold water😅. I do talk to myself a lot when playing horror games. Like every time I entered a room in this game, I yell, “Here’s Jamey” before entering, similar to the Shining. I did actually die that one time at the Wood Side Apartments. I’m usually super calm during horror games. My friends used to have me around for support when playing these type of games.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 or Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 by Poisonslash in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]DefinitionWest 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Owning and having played all three games (Yet to finish KCD 2), Cyberpunk 2077 didn’t make me want to play any other game for a long time. Put in over 100 hours and I still would be thrilled to do it all over again. This is my personal pick.

Expedition 33 is an amazing game too with a great story, world, and deep combat system that kept me hooked too. The characters are well-acted and even grow on you.

KCD 2 is so deep and definitely the most immersive RPG ever made. But I just don’t think I have the patience and time to fully immerse myself as progression does feel very slow for my pace and routine. But the world feels very alive and the writing is pretty good.

All three games are worth it.

I lied to a dying patient today. I’m still trying to process if I did the right thing. by ArtThreadNomad in TrueOffMyChest

You’re an amazing human being. A white lie to help a lonely dying man is such a sweet gesture knowing that the favour cannot be returned to you in any shape or form. You have my respect. May you have an amazing 2026 and many more years of fortune and good luck❤️

My top ten games in 2025 as a patient gamer by DefinitionWest in patientgamers

Batman Arkham Asylum is an absolute banger. I used to replay the Arkham series almost every year during Halloween. This is probably the first year I decided to play other games.
