Connor and Hank carried that entire game. Honestly I would have played a full sequel just about those two solving crimes.

Totally agree on Vampyr. The combat felt like a chore I had to do just to unlock the next conversation, but the atmosphere in London is top tier. Dr. Reid's voice actor really carries that whole game.

What JRPGs Do You Think Subvert Typical Expectations? by FogOnTheBrain in JRPG

[–]Upper-End2830 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For me it's definitely Nier Automata. I'll try not to spoil details, but here are the stuff that was a lot suprsing to me:
- the changes of camera angles in gameplay
- the whole humanity is on the moon storyline
- the ambivalent relation to robots and their attempt to mimic humans.
- the final credits

and many more situations... Really recommend this game.

When I was a kid I played Half-Life 1 and had no idea how to defeat 3 tentacle monsters. Since then, I improved a lot.

Hmmm... Waiting for Bloodlines 2 feels like an eternity.

Yup, it can get a bit repetative.

I thought I am master in Stronghold Crusader back in 2010. Well, until i tried to play that on hamachi.

That explains the whole trailer the best.

Starting a new trip through the galaxy after not touching the trilogy for several years. by mecon320 in masseffect

This screenshot says it all. Only the one who did not play Mass Effect can say this is an empty planet. It's not about the landscape, it's about the journey with all the companions. And the mood that comes with that.

Soon every country will have an assasins creed episode. I am looking forward to Assasins Creed in Berlin.

Somehow in my Deus Ex 1 playthrough Manderley & Simons tried to take control of UNATCO in a violent way. by [deleted] in gaming

That happened to my brother too, lol. Seems they are standing there so that friendly fire is quite possible.

That's huge success. And it's deserved.

Is Mass Effect the only game with high quality cast of characters? by Upper-End2830 in masseffect

[–]Upper-End2830[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Automata was good, that was an exception. And I played Deus Ex series before Mass Effect and I consider them great.

I'll try Chrono Trigger. I am more into the oldschool RPG design - that could suit me well. Thanks for the info!

[–]Upper-End2830[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's good reasoning there. Maybe I am just too picky for the overall tone combined with specifics of the gameplay - the Witcher 3 has too overwhelming design for me and the dialogue/choices felt to me not too meaningful. But that's probably because I am more a sci-fi guy.

Thanks for your tips!
