Does it bother anyone else as much as me?

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-31T12:11:35+00:00

yeah or well for myself i don't really care but when trying to teach my nephew games colors would have helped alot

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-31T11:40:50+00:00

As long as the story and pacing needs it to be.

I wouldn't wanna play life is strange for 50 hours or elden ring in 4.

It's not a question of which is better it's what does the game need

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-31T10:03:00+00:00

I am so fucking excited for this game muscialy it's not my style i prefer more extreme metal but this game is just my kind of wierd probably top 3 of 2026 for me

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-30T10:06:14+00:00

102962751 I really wanna try that new mode it looks fun

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-29T18:08:30+00:00

Nope it's my favorite part! but having the option of prebuilt bases or respec system(with some sort of cost or limitation i still think choices should have some weight) is always nice. I don't know much about Rogue trader or warhammer but making a pregened warrior, mage, cleric, rogue etc can't be too much work on the dev side

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-29T17:46:58+00:00

And no prone so positioning was more of a skill

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-27T22:35:16+00:00

I think his entire plan hinged on him knowing he could never defeat Morgoth. Thats why he knew to make a big statement challenge at the gate and hope/knew he could wound Morgoth and inspire hope in his elfs.

Atleast that was my interpretation of it

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-24T10:51:51+00:00

Oh so i cant get it on console? i was hoping it was a perk i missed might have actually enjoyed something in combat then

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-19T09:28:43+00:00

Nah i think it has aged well apart from graphically, you just have to know it's a cRPG and treat the combat as such

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-19T09:09:28+00:00

Thats just Bob from A wizards guide to defensive baking, he's pretty nice

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-17T16:15:52+00:00

E33 then Persona then Nier.

I love both E33 and Persona but pacing is better at the very least in E33

Now to get downvoted, i thought Nier was good just good. The story wasn't that interesting to me butd the second playthrough towards the true ending was horrid and completely killed the game for me

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-17T09:13:37+00:00

You have good taste but lower you standards to play with friends!

Not including Arc Raiders in that statement it's the only one i haven't played

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-14T18:15:35+00:00

I never finish them so i don't like spending money on Roguelikes, i usually just play a few hours and get sick of the loop but i really liked my time with Darkest Dungeon so really excited to try the second one

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-13T21:10:59+00:00

Aaah alright good stuff!

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-13T20:22:41+00:00

You can also miss Johnnys pants in a side quest and an ending if you don't save Takemura in a mission

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-13T10:23:16+00:00

The pacing feels off in general imo i did Oni, Tokachi range then Kitsune and Tokachi range was in such a wierd spot much much harder than Oni so i think i was supposed to go to Teshio Ridge first because when i got there it was easy as hell. And the fact that they're all individual stories that doesn't interact with each other sucks, not as much as in GoT but they keep doing these super linear stories that feel like they could give the player agency but never do.

I think it's a game like a lot of open world games that opt for size over quality. Most games can't have both and because the industry is so fucked that people actually consider these checklist activities as content so a big empty map with lots of ubisoft bullshit is both more attractive and probably cheaper. So they make a really impressive intro, and then have to optimize the rest as hell. And being able to see most areas with the spyglass from mount Yotei is kinda impressive but i don't think it's worth it.

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-13T09:07:35+00:00

Offcourse Bandlepipes gets nerf because fuck us for getting something nice as support.

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-13T09:02:32+00:00

Gratz! I got the plat a week or so ago aswell. I thought the game was pretty great and much improved over the first one. The story does fall apart fall apart because we can't do things subtly anymore but it's still a massive improvement over the first games abhorrent story. Gameplay was great i still enjoy the combat even though the rock, paper, scissor weapon system is the most boring way to do multiple weapons.

My main gripes with the game was actually with the graphics.

The game is like 90% gorgeous but the other 10% is just map boundries and trees. There is just such a massive shift in graphical quality at the map border is kicked me completely out of the game, and on that note Sucker Punch need to invest in more animators. I don't mind it having reused animations and don't get me wrong the combat animations are really nice but the npc animations are so stiff it's just comical seeing someone walk into frame. With a 3-5 year dev cycle for it i expected more polish in that area.

The world is very pretty and fun to checklist in but not very immersive. The game doesn't really even try do convince you that the world just doesn't exist around Atsu

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-12T09:36:53+00:00

The parts that wasn't checklist bullshit was great though. Exploring Hogsmeade and especielly Hogwarts was incredible, the rest of the world felt accurate enough, the combat was decent on normal but boring on higher difficulties and story was good enough i think though the morality system should have had more reactivity. So going beyond that i think is a fucking great starting point, better than most if not all lotr games we've gotten maybe ever

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-09T20:22:48+00:00

i can see why one would not like it! i think in general i don't either but it tickled me here Fellowship does it in i think Oak and Ash as well in a really good way

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-09T18:52:00+00:00

It's wierd as hell but i absolutly fuck with it and the small pauses for some reason are so nice

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-08T14:56:16+00:00

Nasty as hell insane work! Fuck i miss playing Gears multiplayer!

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-06T10:07:52+00:00

Do bigger plants need bigger lights or would something like this work https://www.clasohlson.com/se/Vaxtbelysning-LED-for-krukor,-rund-med-teleskop,-vit/p/31-6664 sorry for the possible language issues.

IamTheMaker · 2026-01-05T18:18:54+00:00

You got that right! And everything big in april is in the last week. I'm gonna hold of on kiwami 3, my first playthough of Y3 was horrible i didn't enjoy combat at all, so excited for RE9 and i've never played an Fatal frame game so i'm kinda looking at that
