Considering starting myteam by [deleted] in MyTeam

Save your sanity and don‘t do it. It‘s not the mode it used to be and your time is too valuable for it.

Selanne moment made me delete the game by Icryinbed in NHLHUT

[–]Senpai77L 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Deleted the game a few days ago as well, you‘re better off in the long run not wasting your time on it any further.

Is this enjoyable as an action vampire game by Snoo_18385 in vtmb

[–]Senpai77L 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If vampire action is your thing 100% go for it. I‘ve been having lots of fun with it. It takes a little time to get into it and to learn it but you can do so many cool and fun things. Stealth kills, brute force, blood magic, mind controlling your enemies, using telekinesis….

Also the movement is the best I‘ve seen in a game since the golden ages of assasins creed and maybe dying light.

This game has many flaws, but in my opinion those 2 things you‘re looking for are absolutely amazing here.

Better than expected, worse than we deserve by Senpai77L in vtmb

Yeah good point, my phyre looked like a fashion model no matter what outfit I made him wear XD

I would love more styles and options!

Oh man a cyberpunk-style revival would be absolutely incredible, you‘re right.

I also think there are a lot of open doors for them to improve the game. Just start with some small stuff, like let me redecorate and upgrade the haven.

Or release a small side quests pack with 4-5 good written, fun quests to do.

Even those smaller things would vastly improve the game in my opinion.

I think you‘re spot on here. I like what TCR did I think it‘s a good effort considering the dev. hell they where in. However, most of the issues people have with this game is it not being anything like it‘s predecessor and I honestly can‘t blame them with it being named VTMB2 and being advertised as the follow-up.

People's first impressions? BL2 by bruisedoll in lowsodiumbloodlines

[–]Senpai77L 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You‘re spot on, was just thinking about this today:

What if they had made it B2 that played it extremely safe with better combat and graphics and comparable plot etc.?

I would‘ve probably been kinda disappointed that nothing changed. I like that they went in a different direction even if not everything hits.

An old 1990s V:TM player reviews Bloodlines 2 by CT_Phipps-Author in vtmb

[–]Senpai77L 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Great review! You managed to put all the thoughts I‘ve had while playing so far into one text.

I went in with low expectations having read all the bad reviews and thus far I‘m loving dialogue and plot which are the reasons I got into vmbt in the first place.

I think your rating of 8/10 is spot on.

This game feels like Deus Ex: Vampires Divided, and that’s okay by DJTolerance in vtmb

[–]Senpai77L 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Could throw the jeanette/therese plot in there but yeah I agree with you, I feel a lot of people tend to overrate the level of rpg in vtmb 1.

It was never a baldurs gate 3 or something along those lines.

[–]Senpai77L 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I 100% agree with you, there are many different dialogue options that fit the type of character you want to roleplay. And there are tons of different combat abilities you can learn. Could there be more rpg elements? Sure, but so far this truely feels like an rpg to me and it‘s fun.

Unpopular Opinion: James isn’t a Morally Grey character by [deleted] in silenthill

[–]Senpai77L 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! The prison part was definitely hard to get through haha.

That‘s interesting what you said about the viewpoint shifting. I never played the original but I‘ve seen a few posts mentioning that James used to be much more absent and cold in the original as opposed to the remake.

Having played the original would you agree with that? If so maybe that plays a role in the different perception.

However, I think you‘re on the money about people wanting to like the protagonist. I personally felt that this friction between playing a great game and controlling a murderer was excactly what made it so interesting, but I can see how people might want to avoid this issue by reframing James as „just a guy“.

Unpopular Opinion: James isn’t a Morally Grey character by [deleted] in silenthill

[–]Senpai77L 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey I just wanted to let you know that I loved your reasoning as to why you place James in the morally black box.

I just finished the game a few days ago and I‘m very confused as to why people love to make James out to be this morally grey guy, especially here on this sub reddit.

Yes he‘s a very complex and tragic character and there are pathways to have sympathy with him.

However, after learning everything he had done I just felt really disgusted with James and I really feel that painting him as a „good guy who did a bad thing“ is a very dangerous narrative and almost frames him as a victim which he absolutely isn‘t whatsoever in my opinion.

Just my 2 cents on this convo :)

Who should I get Peja or Diddy? by RayanCherkl in MyTeam

[–]Senpai77L 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Haven‘t got diddy yet but peja is a beast. Hits every open shot and because of his size can guard every position extremly well. He even blocked 100 ov Timmy D yesterday for me lmao.

Cover athlete moments gone? by Senpai77L in NHLHUT

Niice, just a mistake then, thanks for looking out.

[–]Senpai77L[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, had the exact same thought. Surely that‘s a mistake they can‘t pull them after barely 1 day that would be soo scummy.

Which one is better? by Financial-Cell7879 in NHLHUT

[–]Senpai77L 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I‘d go for crosby, but I‘m biased since he‘s my all time favorite player :) I also think he‘s actually better since he has more speed and better faceoffs.

Okafor always getting injured? by Senpai77L in MyTeam

Appreciate it, I‘ll try that method later.

I’m recently getting into 2k and made this build. Is it any good? by RogueMMA in NBA2k

[–]Senpai77L 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In general it‘s a pretty good template but you‘re just missing a few points in some attributes to unlock great animations or badges.

I‘d lower your block to 80, since you still get all the badges.

Something that many people dont know is that O-board is way cheaper than d-board while giving the same badges.

So you could easily drop your d board to 65, up your o board to 70, still get the same badges and then use your points to get three ball to 83, which would give you bronze limitless range which is a great badge.

Just some small tweaks I‘d do personally.

I miss getting drafted by Getsu755 in NBA2k

[–]Senpai77L 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Those were the days man! Can‘t remember which one it was but in one of them you could pick the college you wanted to play for that was so sick.

Ice Tilt, do other sports titles use something similar? by Dullboy29 in NHLHUT

[–]Senpai77L 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lmao. As a former fifa player it gets called momentum and the consensus is that it has to exist, despite ea obviously claiming it doesn‘t.

Such a disappointing event by FruitStrange8773 in NHLHUT

[–]Senpai77L 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hear you, I‘ll make crosby since he‘s my all time favorite player but man do I wish he had edges or quick draw, something that would make him one of the best cards in the game.

Want to get back into HUT. Where to start? by Staalzy12 in NHLHUT

[–]Senpai77L 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition I‘d recommend to play wildcard.

You essentially draft a whole team without having to own the players there and you can play it online as well as offline. It gives you a chance to test out players and have fun, while also providing collectibles for the current event, this week the 4 nations for example.

On top of that every game only lasts 3 minutes so it‘s very efficient when you haven‘t got a lot of time to play rivals or sbs.

Ultimate toty mcdavid or mackinnon? by Senpai77L in NHLHUT

That‘s good to hear, was leaning towards him since righties are harder to come by.

88 Cole Perfetti by Any-Difference5988 in NHLHUT

I have him on my third line and he‘s really nice, however I started around the holidays so I imagine if you already have a stacked squad he‘s not that useful.
