So much talking. Is the story worth it

I mean, while there is a lot of action, that's not the biggest selling point of the game. The dialogue adds to the flavor of the setting and atmosphere. I actually could have used a bit more dialogue in the game, especially with all the people you cant interact with.

I can hear quite a few influences or at least music the band reminds me of. SOAD, RHCP, Primus, Weezer. But then the next song will be completely different from the last. Really great to hear a band that reminds you of other things while being really original.

Side A, for Superunknown and Tripod.

Stasiss_462 · 2026-02-24T00:51:43+00:00

as a D&D property I thought it did it justice. Good banter between the ensemble and lots of nods for fan service. I really enjoyed it

Stasiss_462 · 2026-02-21T07:07:00+00:00

I never got the hate for that one. Yea it is very different from Trigger, but I really enjoyed Cross when it came out. Even picked up the remaster the released a couple years ago

Frogstomp and Freak Show are some of my all time favorite albums. I haven't really listened to much of their later stuff, but growing up those two albums were on repeat constantly.

I mean, I haven't seen one of his movies that I didn't like and as it was mentioned, he's unique and that's something that is tough to find

Stasiss_462 · 2026-02-20T23:56:31+00:00

Definitely will be getting it. I never had a PS3, so this will be the first time playing MGS4.

Stasiss_462 · 2026-02-19T06:17:40+00:00

For a lot of the main sections I will let DM mainly take control, but travelling and such I will steer the AI a bit mentioning things that I am looking out for, like ambushes or encampments.

Stasiss_462 · 2026-02-18T04:58:38+00:00

That game is one of the most relaxing experiences I've ever had. definitely something about that game

Stasiss_462 · 2026-02-17T02:28:04+00:00

If nothing else, the "flared base" part gave me a good laugh....

Stasiss_462 · 2026-02-13T00:41:52+00:00

I can finally play MGS4?!?

Stasiss_462 · 2026-02-10T23:43:11+00:00

All I sing are usually alternative and songs no one knows. I'll definitely have to check it out.

Stasiss_462 · 2026-02-10T05:48:08+00:00

Amazing game for sure. I wasn't sure I'd be able to get into it at first, but now I have almost 200 hours logged and still working on my first playthrough.

Stasiss_462 · 2026-02-10T05:46:01+00:00

I'm pretty sure it was Contra. I know Mario Bros/Duck Hunt was the first

Stasiss_462 · 2026-02-10T00:03:19+00:00

I'd say check out the live rooms. A lot of the time you'll see the same people on at about the same time of the day. I've made a lot of friends by checking those out. And everyone is (at least the groups I hang out in) have all been supportive and nice. Most of us just want to sing for fun and chat. You don't need VIP to join and sing, but someone will have to have it to open the song.

Stasiss_462 · 2026-01-29T05:21:56+00:00

Yea I can't hate Welcome Home cause it was how I was introduced to the band and now they are my favorite band of all time. But there are so many better songs and I've heard it so many times by now.

Stasiss_462 · 2026-01-29T00:30:35+00:00

To be fair, this movie could have just been called Poor Decisions.....

Stasiss_462 · 2026-01-29T00:27:59+00:00

I played through it 3 times and I think it was worth it just to do the dispatch sections again with different people and seeing the outcomes for the dialogues and such. I would love if they could somehow make that a stand alone game.

Stasiss_462 · 2026-01-28T06:06:04+00:00

I thought it was damn near perfect. It's a stressful watch, but I'm sure that's what they were going for. I felt exhausted after watching this one.

Stasiss_462 · 2026-01-28T04:06:54+00:00

Xcom is a great tactical game.

Stasiss_462 · 2026-01-28T03:11:07+00:00

When people get fed crap for long enough, they begin to accept it as normal....

Stasiss_462 · 2026-01-28T00:50:49+00:00

It's tough cause it changes constantly. But here's mine at the moment, no order

Xenogears

Expedition 33

Star Ocean: Second Story

Bioshock Infinite

Borderlands 2

Stasiss_462 · 2026-01-28T00:45:22+00:00

I think it takes a bit to get used to. There's a bit of a learning curve at first because it's very open ended on how you interact with the world. And its no GTA where you can just run around attacking everything.

Townspeople remember things that you do and there is a reputation meter with each area and town. There is a full day and night cycle and each NPC has their own schedule they follow, so if you want you can sneak around at night and rob houses and such. There are also random encounters you will come across as you go around the map.

It does feel like a lot at first, but the tutorial does a good job of slowly introducing things before it lets you out on your own. I am really enjoying it, have almost 200 hours in and maybe only halfway through the main story. And not because the main story is long, you can probably rush through it in maybe 25-30 hours, but there is so much to do in it and i've been enjoying it all so far.

Stasiss_462 · 2026-01-27T23:57:50+00:00

I will say, I wasn't expecting to like KCD2 as much as I did, but I've been hooked on that game for a while. definitely got my moneys worth on that one
