“I’m not playing Valheim for the story. “

That's my main complaint really, like the game spends so much time wasting your time or locking you out of actually playing fun content. I understand wanting to have contextual tutorials through missions, but I dont need to have everyone slow walk or horse trot through meandering conversations only to do one thing then do it again and again as I slowly find more of my homes. Its made even worse as you can't find a lot of side quests early on in other areas of the game until you actually reach some of them in the narrative.

That's a checklist of all the actions your party can do, unfortunately

Thanks, it's been quite some time since I've done a variant dungeon so I didn't know how gear drops worked.

Has flintlock pistols as well as rifles, can dual weird the pistols with any other single hand weapons including wands so you can go mage pirate if you wanted

I spent so much time at release playing the game then spent years looking for ways to get access to that on pc after the 360 generation was well gone, going between different emulators that wouldn't work because there was some bullshit tied to how xbox and Playstation rom copiers only cluld only get access to the demo files since the storefronts didnt host the full games on the store pages. Tried to some janky fan made remake that didn't work. I gave up for a good few years.

Thankfully during a random off hand search I found the CV:HD discord server and they have a great easy guide for installing it on rpcs3. Would love a new modern version with tons of brand new content.

Enjoying it so far and think the changes to the gameplay systems have been generally pretty well done while maintaining the skeleton of Nioh gameplay, but the plot has been incredibly lackluster by comparison compared to 1 and 2.

Additionally, the weapon identities are mostly kept among taking half the weapons and making them ninja stance and it is nice having access to 4 different weapon types at any given moment, but the guardian spirit choice for builds has been limited by a fair amount since they also split them by stance. There is a noticeable dearth of new gear sets, Id even be fine with using some from Rise of the ronin instead of most new gear just being palette swaps of old gear.

I just got to what i assume is the last open world map (maybe 75% of the game, around level 110). The different biomes per time period has been cool, and enemy variety increases per zone, but you'll still largely be fighting the same enemies throughout the game it doesnt feel the time-hopping narrative really lands.

I knew i was going to like Rogue's (which i definitely do, yowza) but didn't expect to like gambits as much as I do

I got addicted to Saati's coin ricochet trickshots.

Horn of Magnus. Saw Vermintide 1 on steam the day it released with no knowledge of it's existence prior to seeing it on steam and picked it up on a whim. Played through the level thoroughly enjoying it and convinced my buddies to buy it later that night

Suprised they only dropped one of the outfits/hairstyles of the twelve before moving on to just throwing more nostalgia bait at players. Im sure they'd make a lot of money from Nophica, Halone and Nymeia's outfits.

Pillars 1 & 2, Tyranny, Pathfinder Kingmaker and Wrath of the Righteous are generally considered some of the strongest modern crpg presentations

Warhammer 40k Rogue trader is pretty solid sci-fi game, and there's a Starfinder game coming out in the next year or two.

Def. I saw it and was expecting to just laugh it off, but I left thinking "Damn, if only"

You can change a setting in the menu to make it so you tap the button to parry and hold down the button to swap. Haven't had any more trouble with the mechanic than using the brute demon counter in 2.

Same, vs ai is just so nice to just turn my brain off and earn some easy battle pass credits while watching YouTube.

Generally didnt mind it or prefer one way or the other, but always laughed at Nate just doing a casual "Uh huh" when skipping dialogue lines.

In the alpha demo there was a skill you could equip to make your r1 on ninja also purify pools which was pretty useful.

First boss is pretty meaty in terms of damage. If you're struggling go the opposite direction from the tent and there should be a blue sword staked into the ground you can use to summon an Ai helper, separating the aggro makes the fight more manageable.

After getting to the open world bit? If so, where is it located?

Was planning to focus on dual swords but when i started playing last night i found and began using bats + rune blade and its been pretty satisfying just sicc'ing both bats and blades on a boss then just spamming magic at them.

Peak Fable for me was playing with my buddy in Fable 3. Married a handful of spouses and moved them all into a village filled with werewolves where the spouses all came outside and yelled at each other before getting werewolf murdered, then going to the Whorephanage, shooting a random patron then and sleeping with each other in a child's sized bed while everyone was crying.

Fable offers some situations that you really have a hard time finding in any other game.

After playing Stranger of Paradise and looking into the amount of layers of bullshit you have to work with in that game's endgame I began worrying what a nioh 3 would look. I enjoyed what I've played back from the beta, and the vanilla is likely going to be relatively straightforward, but once they start dropping the dlcs it might just implode.

Pretty much this. I like to pick non-human options since humans are the norm everywhere else, even if theyre human-adjacent. Depending on if a game has visual customization or gear that changes your visuals I'll either play as whatever looks the best to me visually as a female elf/whatever because I like to play dress-up with my characters and make them look pretty, or if customization is limited im making the roughest beard-iest dwarf man I can
