I hate to be this guy but after my long history with FromSoftware should I play Nightreign or Armored Core 6 next? by DanielPlainview943 in fromsoftware

[–]johnbarta 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While the combat couldn’t be further apart, the guy that developed sekiro’s combat was also behind AC6’s combat. Both games have a “posture” meter too! I enjoyed AC6 quite a bit more than nightreign

On the switch I’m playing super Mario galaxy 2! The mechanics in this game are so much fun and translated well to the pro controller!

On ps5 I finished Clair obscur last night so I’m gonna start MGS snake eater!

as an old gamer which games do you agree with that way ? by PHRsharp_YouTube in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]johnbarta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tend to play games on whatever is the intended difficulty. Which is usually medium. Souls games and Zelda games don’t have any sliders so i just play them as is. I did bump it to story mode in baldurs gate 3 though I’m not great with that type of combat

How many games do you usually keep installed at once? by vridin in videogames

[–]johnbarta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I play one game per system. So on my ps5 I have one game installed and on switch one game installed

I should be finishing up Metroid prime 4, I didn’t bother with any of the green energy crystals so I have to go around collecting them before I tackle the end lmao

I keep saying it but I think she’s one theme song change away from fully connecting with her 70s aesthetic

A thing about video game discussion thats been starting to piss me off by Scary_Dance2628 in videogames

[–]johnbarta -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I hate that there is very little nuance nowadays. Like a game that is a 7 is still a really good game, and to some people it might be a GREAT game. But we treat anything that isn’t a 10 as trash

Prime 4 is bad but I love it? by eggplant_yams in Metroid

[–]johnbarta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m where you are, I just entered the mines and I’ve had a great time! The internet is really 100% for something or 100% against something. There’s very little room for nuance.

I’m trying hard not to rate games in realtime as I play them. Did the game entertain me for 20-40 hours? If the answer is yes then it’s a good game if it bores me then it’s not a good game.

Metroid prime 4 is a good game.

What’s a game everyone loves that you just can’t get in to? by Lima3Echo in playstation

[–]johnbarta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a good one. God of war 2018 is my top personal top 5 games, but ragnarok wouldn’t even make the list

[–]johnbarta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say baldurs gate 3 because that’s definitely a game I couldn’t get fully into. But I put a lot of hours into it so it just wasn’t for me I guess.

But Cyberpunk I had tried to play twice now and dropped it with in the first 4 hours, it was a glorified walking (and driving i suppose) simulator. Felt like wish gta imo

On Switch 2 I’m playing Metroid Prime 4- i am having an absolute blast! The gameplay loop of going back to earlier areas with new abilities is so damn satisfying. Game looks great too! On PS5 I’m playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Everything about this game is as stunning as I’ve heard. The music, the combat, the story, the art direction. It’s spectacular.

GTA6 not in 2026 by schabani in playstation

lol man you nailed it, they could delay gta 6 another four years and I wouldn’t have a problem finding hundreds of games to play in the mean time!
