Also controls sucks - movement on left stick is too twitchy, inverted camera (the fuck?!) and no gamepad button prompts

Is this the anime thread I've been hearing about?
Y'all need to stop posting underaged girls in their undies already.
Made some progress in Asterix and Obelix XXL 2, and I think I am close to the end game? I'm prob. in the lat 1/3 or so of the game.
The gameplay loop doesn't change much and it is a hella basic and simple game but I like its many 'cameos' to video games as you can tell the team working on it were really into the classics.
If one needs more Asterix and Obelix in their lives, this game is def. worth checking out IMO.
A few things I'd like in XXL 3:
Faster movement speed
More range on your melee attacks since Asterix and Obelix's slaps are very short range
KEEP THE PILEDRIVER FOR OBELIX

I think chromatic aberration has a menu setting now. When I played at launch I disabled it on the ini file along with the vignette and film grain and didn't notice any graphic problems.
Thanks DeejayDoom for posting this in the last thread, didn't get to watch it before now.
Survive sounds more good the more I hear about it, now gimme a release date!

I love the the first thing under About This Game: is a gif of a huge lady with a headcannon just stomping all over stuff. Brigador is great and this is a good chance for me to post this awesome track
The gacha is ruthless, that was the right decision, I would advise you against spending too much again.Yeah this is pretty much the case for me as well. Though for people on my friends list maybe it looks like I only play R6 Siege all the time lol. It's not the case I promise!
My main mobile gacha is Girls' Frontline, and actually I've got 100% doll completion which puts me in the top 50 leaderboard for all of EN Server as well as furniture. I whale a lot in that game.I've been playing it since day-1 of EN launch. I would have been on JP server, but surprisingly EN came first and JP took forever to launch! GFL is known for it's really melancholy/edgy/dark storyline lol, and I do like that aspect a lot. It's also nice to have a gacha where the only gambling is for completely optional and purely cosmetic costumes. Everything essential is provided in-game and that makes it quite accessible.
Just today I restarted FGO, since I can't recover my old account, which sucks but whatever I really need all the tutorials again anyway lol. ... I think the last time I played FGO was late 2017, the latest banner included Jack and Nursery Rhyme. I maxed out both and definitely whaled a lot in that game as well. Too much in-fact which is why I initially quit. Now I've gone back to it with plans to be more modest in my spending though. Once I actually have some support units leveled I'll PM you my friend ID or whatever (honestly I forgot how all this works
As for the friend ID, I'll PM you now, if you're just starting out it'll be useful having a support in your FL with high leveled servants, if you need I can swap Raikou for Cu Alter, just let me know.
Onigashima is coming up soon with Kintoki (Rider) which is free and one of the best Rider in the game so with good supports you'll be up to speed much quicker.
Don't spend outside of guaranteed gacha and remember to bind your account.
Bruh I know what they are; doesn't change what I'm getting at with my post.

it's good to see you're THIS excited to play SS4
yes, very
they're Larian - no matter which one it turns out to be (although - it's DEFINITELY going to be BG3), it's gonna be amazing!

New thread, let's talk about an old game. I recently started playing Prey (2017) and it's fantastic. The fact that this apparently wasn't successful commercially is another indictment of the gaming public at large.
And it's another indicator that Steam user reviews are statistically better than all other reviews.
And it's another indicator that Steam user reviews are statistically better than all other reviews.
I just noticed that the developer of Monster Logic, a really nice looking Zachlike/programming puzzle game, posted to my Zachlike thread on ERA that the game is getting closer to completion and that we'll be getting a release date soon. It's been a while since I dove into one of these, so I am looking forward to seeing what Monster Logic one has to offer.
Talking about really old games - Sam & Max Hit the Road humor is something that you really need to get used to? Because 90% game characters say some unfunny gibberish. At least slaptstick comedy is still there and animation is freaking great (can easily top modern indie adventures with ginormous 8-bit pixels)

Nice new ani... I mean Steam thread indeed
Played through that game in one go, that's how hooked I got to the whole atmosphere.
I feel like a lot of (3D) platformers have those few sections that are annoying and in Kao's case they are thankfully not controller breaking/rage quitting.
The game has 2-3 major issues for me so far
1- Enemies that fire projectiles at you can hit you from afar even when you don't see them! Thankfully I managed to time my movement so I can get in range of them to take them out with boomerangs
2- Some hazards can't be seen if they're on the ceiling like in the 2nd world, but I'm usually at enough health to avoid dying from them
3- Attacks are locked to where Kao is looking, so if Kao is looking forward, but you want to ROLL to the right, he'll just roll forward instead. This is due to the game's design and so far hasn't caused me much problems in combat, but it is annoying when I don't land a roll on an enemy.
Non the less I'm still enjoying the game, but I think there are audio glitches as the music didn't load when I played the game at first today. I rebooted the game and music loaded fine.

Had no idea that there the newest Prince of Persia games were on GOG, grabbed Warrior Within for less than 2 bucks, which is a pretty nice deal. Now in the Summer Sale I just need to grab The Forgotten Sands edition that comes with The Sands of Time and I will be set.
I wish they ported Hacker's Memory.
Unluckily the first Cyber Sleuth is lost as it's been delisted from PSN, seeing the ps4 box on my shelf and knowing the chances of a port are zero is a bit sad.

Why would the chances of a port or rerelease be low for? Conflict with the artist?
There was a setting in game but I could only turn CA to low which is not good enough for how ugly CA is. It must be stomped out totally!
Thankfully it's easy enough to shut off.
It was my goty in 2017 and given how stacked that year was that's saying something. Unlike most Bethesda games this gen it released at a pretty good time too so no idea why it didn't gain any traction. They really suck at marketing.

they REALLY should've chosen a different name ... instead of forcing them to use Prey for no good reason ... like there are literally ZERO reasons for that game to be called Prey
Well, the new Switch release has both games on the same cart, so there's still hope.
My cousin's old ass lappy has 4 GB RAM and 2 GB for the video card. Seems he got a free copy or so of batman Arkham Knight as an offer or some such and the poor fella can't play it. Looking at its min. specs, the game would barely run on his rig @_@
Voidwoken was the first thing that popped into my head as well. Mindflayers tend to be purple/pink/mauve, so I don't think that's what it is... Though I love Mindflayers and would love a game where they were featured heavily.
It's not that I don't want DOS3... But I want BG3 more! Larian making games based on D&D settings is dream game material, and would hopefully lead to them doing a NWN-style build-your-own modules/campaigns with live DM renaissance. The amount of creativity and ingenuity that came out of NWN was amazing.
It's one of the worst trends in gaming, instead of rebooting just give it another name, make it clear it has no connection with previous games, etc
I have no idea about a rerelease I just assumed that since it was delisted BN didn't see the game as that valuable anymore, although the game did exceed expectations and resurrected the digimon games in the west, but then why would they delist it? Maybe I'm wrong as Knurek pointed out.

yeah, exactly .... it's just so stupid
like they think people are dumb enough to get confused by Tomb Raider VII or something ... come onnnnnnn
If a game gets a new entry intended as a 'reboot' or such, just give it a subtitle instead of a numbering. Much better that way.
Yeah I hate when entertainment does that. It's like the suits sit around and think using a name of a super obscure IP from decades prior is better than doing something new. Do you really have such little faith in your product that you need the 35 people who heard of the first Prey? Chances are anyone who does remember that are the kinds of people who will pay attention to a new IP announcement to begin with.

yeah, that would work as well, definitely
just don't call it the same exact thing as a game that already exits ffs
precisely ... by 2017 "Prey" meant absolutely NOTHING
and if you're gonna make a new Prey - make it a new Prey ffs, not just a new game that happens to have the same name for some fucking reason
They did, though I'm not sure if it ever took off. I never hear anyone ever talk about it. I know I didn't use it yet, but I haven't even finished the base game.
Morning us keeps bringing the fire posts
Actually they're 1,000 year old pants so it's okay.
OP
Maybe that's exactly why they did it:
They weren't going to make a proper Prey 2, and most people had forgotten about the original anyway, but the name was still good (and probably trademarked) so why not use it?
I like how when XSEED released Zwei 2, they had its subtitle be the Illvard Insurrection (sp); They kept that it was the 2nd game while not alluding to it for newcomers.
OP
Well, yeah, obviously. But I was talking about the general gaming publicclearly not everyone had forgotten - since we're talking about it
