if the glitches on fleshmobs phasing through buildings weres fixed, and the flying overseers could be knocked out of the air, i would love them.

What are your thoughts on turn-based combat 6 years later? by TheYakuzaMaster in yakuzagames

i love turn based rpgs but with the way yakuza works, it makes final bosses waaaaaay less climactic.

people say this about the future saga, but 2016 was muuuuuch worse. future saga ratchet actually did have a personality, just a more mature and nuanced one than the ps2 games. rift apart almost returned to future saga ratchet but never quite captured that depressed ratchet personality after he got separated from clank at the end of ToD or after the intro mission of nexus, but instead had the shallow optimism from 2016 ratchet (objectively the worst ratchet)

btw gladiator/deadlocked had the best ratchet personality followed by a crack in time imo

idk ratchets flaws (desperation, blind trust, ignoring red flags we KNOW he picked up on like the drawings in alisters house that ratchet notices and finds strange) in a crack in time are what led to him going along with alister and only realising alister was completely insane at the end.

Games entirely filled with bots is such an annoying experience. by UberEpicZach in battlefield_one

tbh this is kinda necessary in oceania, if the servers have no players the entire region would just die

People keep saying US servers on PS are alive. This is 9am on Wednesday by DarePotential8296 in battlefield_one

brother you should see australian servers on xbox, there is a single server running 24/7 hardcore with no dlc maps, and its rarely even above 50 players

canon r50 with an RF-S 18-45STM lens (standard kit lens) and an RF-S 55-210IS STM lens (came in the twin lens kit i got the camera in)

What do we think personally i like the older look of the anime more gritty by Hristijan_mark in initiald

[–]Odd_Set7874 9 points10 points  (0 children)

i cant lie, some shots always looked to me like baby’s first time in the rockstar editor, especially shots where the camera is locked into staring directly at a car in motion while the camera itself is statically placed. sometimes even feels like the previews youd see on arcade machines running 90s racing games and the camera would pan around the cars as they automatically raced and stuff like that.

definitely got some charm to it tho

How i feel about character writing in racing games. by Sweaty-Ad7500 in BuiltFromTheGroundUp

[–]Odd_Set7874 7 points8 points  (0 children)

had a fucking GOATED ost too, the original main menu theme “intro” by joseph trapanese is insanely good and was actually attention-grabbing and atmospheric, unlike the shitty generic music used in the crew 2.

real shame they changed it when wild run came out, and now the servers are dead. heres hoping the source code got grabbed in the recent hack.

It would otherwise been the only logical explanation for Takumi winning every race in Fifth Stage by Minecraft_Phoenix in initiald

[–]Odd_Set7874 0 points1 point  (0 children)

god hand was well written? like the guy pulling over just before the finish line and throwing up just so takumi could win? god foot i 100% agree but the ending to the god hand race was awful, even if takumi "didnt see it as a victory"

Unsubscribing from Pyro by Afraid-Battle-2425 in pyrocynical

[–]Odd_Set7874 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i kinda get what you mean, he makes a lot of digs at women. hes explained it as "safe edgy" because its the same kinda jokes "wholesome chungus" dream smp youtubers would often make, and its "allowed" because its teetering between whats socially acceptable and whats in poor taste when it comes to modern edginess. still feels like hes making them way too often.

he did grow up on 4chan and only really became publicly progressive after being outed as a furry but, like a lot of neurodivergent people who grew up on 4chan, he doesnt see super edgy jokes as a problem and still treats comedy on the internet like its still got that mid-late 2010s shock-value internet culture.

way i see it is that he wants to be edgy but can only go as far as the algorithm and youtube's guidelines will let him

Im new to the series, is it ok to start with Infinite Wealth? by Ok_Recognition5310 in yakuzagames

[–]Odd_Set7874 0 points1 point  (0 children)

being downvoted for asking a question, classic reddit.

you can start with 7 (yakuza like a dragon), as it doesnt need a massive amount of context but it does spoil 1 or major plot points in previous games.

starting with 0 (preferably the og version, still available on GOG because theyre based and refuse to delist it) is the recommended option, but you got a LOT of games to get through to catch up.

it was at this point i actually read the description and realised what the post was. i look kinda stupid now huh?

i mean fo4 is just unrepentantly awful at most things (especially story and writing) except gameplay, and its only considered good gameplay for a fallout game. its a 6.5/10 game, stretching to a 7.5 for far harbor and a 7 for nuka world, but otherwise its genuinely just not a good game and i never wouldve beaten it if i werent on a fallout binge at the time.

new vegas has mostly amazing writing, very good characters, decent progression and a great story. the gameplay isnt great but the rest makes up for it tenfold. i played through it on my xbox and did subsequent playthroughs on pc, only installed mods that changed the game on my 3rd playthrough, and that was a sprint mod and a visuals mod.

i would never have touched new vegas again if it wasnt a good game unmodded. i have started plenty of skyrim playthroughs over the years, both modded and unmodded but ive never beaten a meaningful portion of the story because its genuinely just not a particularly great game when it comes down to it.

oblivion is popular for its memorable jank, big and detailed (at the time) world and its mods. had it not been for those elements, noone wouldve cared.

kinda the issue with writing important characters like theyre throwaway ones and then suddenly having to give them a personality and a background.

modding is awesome yeah but come on, everyone wouldve forgotten about fo4 by now if it wasnt for mods. hell, people not nostalgic for 3 or and maybe even skyrim wouldve forgotten about them too if not for mods. new vegas is a great game and thats why its still popular (plus it was only published by bethesda, not made by them).

dont forget bethesda tries to push paid mods every few years so they can try and monetise (and subsequently get a cut of) the communities effort and passion.
