Lots of people are simply trash and should have the Internet taken away from them.

I also find it funny how some people call TLOU 2 fanfic. How the hell is TLOU 2 fanfic when it was written by the writer of the first game (Neil)?

Can someone PM me a tldr version of what has been going on with tlou2? It's been off my radar because it's a playstation title and I don't own a ps4 but what I have come across seems all over the place and vile for no apparent reason.
 
Are the newest Shadow Warrior games good? I haven’t played them :0

1 is a solid attempt at a modern, mechanics based linear arena FPS. Janky at times but A for effort, lots of level secrets, good time all around.

2 for some reason they thought to themselves "hey you know that linear game people loved? Lets turn it into a coop shlooter with procedurally generated levels"

I just hope if Square Enix releases Live-A-Live here, they license the AGTP translation.
(Although I guess getting ahead of the original translator might be an issue)

23rd of July marked on my calendar. I really want to see Halo Infinite and hopefully a new Forza Motorsport with ray tracing.

I must be in the extreme minority, as while it was definitely a let down from how good the first one was (and The Touch), I didn't hate the open world, procedurally generated levels of part2. They weren't used effectively as the game progressed, but it was still fun.
Would still prefer SW3 be more 1 than 2 though, so put your pitchfork and torches down

Bought it years ago, still only 3 hours played.

I'm such a sucker.

I bought it day 1 on PS4 but was too depressed to play, bought it on PC but couldnt run it well, and finally bought it on Xbox for 5 bucks and completed it there.

afaik it was always coming to PC, all Xbox Game Studios games have been Xbox/PC for years now (aside from a handful of PC-specific franchises like Flight Simulator and Age of Empires)

It never had any Windows 10 "tag" anywhere unlike other MS games, like Halo Infinite and Grounded has on their Xbox site and Battletoads still doesn't have the tag.

This one is hard today, but I have managed to do it after a few tries.

For the sticker, I have no solution.

Huh. I clicked the button like 20 times, it opened my queue finally and I immediately got the card :thinking-face:
 
This Humble Monthly was good for me, but I hav 2 choices left and can't decide:

Sigma Theory: Global Cold War
Metal Unit
Verlet Swing
Blasingstoke

Any thoughts?
 
Monooboe Have you played any Piranha Bytes style games before? Like Gothic or Risen?
They are hard as hell at the start and you gradually become powerful, they do not hold your hand, running away or cheesing difficult encounters with Party NPCs is a valid tactic, cheese of all forms is a valid tactic, areas and goals can be surrounded by enemies that will 1-hit kill you and running for your life to get through them to a safe area is a valid tactic, they can be very obtuse with their puzzles and are slightly broken... but by the end of the game you are kicking ass all over the shop.

Elex has a slightly broken/not-explained skill system, a HUGE world, lots of dying, tons of things to do, satisfying exploration, lots of dying, 3 Factions you can choose to join each with their own style/character/outlook. I love it and if you liked Risen etc it's more of the same.

I don't know about Outward but i've been curious to try it.

Been looking at some reviews for it but it looks so eurojank haha! Also it seems to lack any kind of personality, BUT i´m still curious about it. A huge world that is rewarding to explore sounds good.

Fun fact, I never really got into ANY piranha byte game before, most I think was Risen 2, it was the pirate one right?

PB games are the purest essence of eurojank ... and they're all great! :coffee-blob:

Cant decide on what 15€ ish RPG to get!

Yay or nay on these:

Elex
Outward

also as someone who never played Final Fantasy X, is it good on PC and does it hold up?
Click to expand...
Yay for both.
Though I liked Ouwtard better for the dungeon exploration, Elex for the quest choices.
Combat is clunky in both, but Outward is playable, Elex not so much.

As for FFX, it's alright. Pretty big downgrade for the franchise, but still decent if you don't mind the extreme linearity.... both in level design and in combat, it's very, very obvious what to do, which is a bit of a shame.
FFX-2 has much better combat, the best in the entire franchise. Everything else... it has to be taken with a grain of salt, in a salted bath, deep into a salt rock mine. Cause it's really fucking dumb.
