Be thankful that you only got a demo. The game's so bullshit hard that by the end Tim Turi has to switch from playing it on a PS3 to a PS2 so he could use the Playstation Mouse. It's amazing.

Lmao holy shit. I need to watch this

 

[Dineren]

In the long list of things Fallout doesn't explain properly, there's an actual cover mechanic in the game.

I had no idea, 24 hours in.

I know they wanted to streamline the tutorial sections and I'm glad for the most part, but they could have at least popped up a message with this info at the end or something. I have about the same amount of time in game as you and I had never seen this either.

Yup I stumbled into this feature after about 10 hours.

What does it look like in third-person? Is it tactically advantageous because you're less exposed, line a lean?

I don't think it works in third person.

 

[giant_frying_pan]

Mario Kart 8's soundtrack rules, but Danny singing about not letting a leprechaun touch you and Osama Bin Laden explosions in the sky is good as well.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Danny randomly breaking out Sleigh Ride every few minutes is pretty great.

 

[AcridMeat]

That cover mechanic video...I'm 30+ hours in WHAT?

Is Just Cause 3 still coming out early December? I can't wait for videos of that.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Now Danny is referencing this....

Danny racing with a guy called perkele and throwing Bomfunk MCs references, I'm glad I tuned in.

64 hours checking in, this blows my mind

LOL. I just showed a buddy of mine this, and he's about 40 hours in and he had no idea.

Amazing. Just amazing.

 

[Tagyhag]

I'm surprised people didn't even know about the cover mechanic. It tells you in a loading screen.

 

[Volotaire]

Would love to see Danny try out Zelda on this stream, seeing as he has never played a Zelda game before IIRC.

My loading times on my laptop can be upwards of a minute long, and I've never seen that tip.

 

[sproutella]

Watching the Legacy of the Void quick look - Jeff doing the Protoss voice and riffing on the case of keystones is high comedy.

 

[Teddified]

Why not just have a tutorial section that you can just opt out of? I mean that would eliminate the second play-through issue.

good use of ryckert on page 2

OMG

 

[Glitchesarecool]

Fallout 4 should never get the passes it does on weird design decisions and broken gameplay. I know it's pretty much the only game of its kind but ffs.

I thought Brad's description of the normal Blizzard story was pretty good too: "Lots of people getting corrupted and then redeemed."

Heh, yeah that's the first thing that I thought of when I read that.

 

[Myggen]

Since the OP is a GB fan and sometimes posts in this thread I'm sure it's at least partly inspired by Witcher3gate.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

That pretty much describes all of WoWs lore. All of blizzards lore. Ancient evils, corruption, redemption and/or killing/replacing the bad guy.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

No, actually, since I don't really think much of GB's opinions on The Witcher 3 yet (I still have Witcher 1 and 2 to get through before thinking that Witcher 3 is the best thing ever). But, of course by being a fan of Giant Bomb, I was very much keeping them in mind when making that thread.

 

[Incandenza]

Speaking of which, I just received the Ugly Baby quest in Witcher 3. I understand this is around where Dan tapped out? Seems like shit is just about to start popping off.

or maybe by how nobody shuts up about undertale/mgsv/etc

because I'm totally in the "the more people yammering about undertale, the less I want to play it" camp

Caution, this also works when you have the high ground. So if you're on the edge of the roof wanting to shoot down at some raiders, if will boost you off the edge thinking that the floor is cover and send you falling to your death. Happened to me at the Corvega factory.

Speaking of the Corvega plant, is it just me or does the game run like straight trash all throughout that area?

 

[Data West]

I haven't had any trouble wiht Undertale overexposure.

Not like Last of Us on gaf where it infected every thread, gaming or off-topic

Yeah it's why people kept telling him to keep going. But oh well it's his decision at the end of the day.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

I had little trouble when I went there. Idk..inside the plant or right outside it? There was some stutters outside it.

Yeah, I think TLoU is the peak of that on GAF. It got to the point that some people would just attack you if you said anything even slightly negative about that game.

 

[stump sock]

yeah, really really badly.

also I found out a fun trick, in that the more things I turn down, the worse the game actually runs.

I'm having a hard time accepting the fact that this isn't a budget game from russia

OHHHHHH so that's why that happened fucking bethesda

 

[Piston Hyundai]

OHHHHHH so that's why that happened fucking bethesda

So I had the inverse happen to me. I put a reflex sight on a rifle and I wanted to see how it looked while I was walking towards the Red Rocket and as I went to aim down the sights I shot up into the fucking air, hit the top of the skybox, and then fell to my death.

 

[danm999]

I just love some of the yoga positions my character contorts into on death.

Has Jeff gotten a chance to crack wise about how shitty of a thing Cloud being in Smash is? I know he's always been critical about their roster choices getting further away from the cool Nintendo ass Nintendo stuff like ROB and Game & Watch.

I doubt he cares enough to even crack wise about it.

I've never thought of that before, but Bethesda really hits that Eastern European jank perfectly.

I think it's hilarious. Sony didn't have Cloud in their Smash Bros but Nintendo does.

That happens to me, too, sometimes. Stupid catchy song.

 

[Jintor]

Stutters like duck outside. I was also having severe issues in the Boston city proper. Where up dropping shadow distance to medium and that seemed to do the trick

I wonder if GBeast will take a look at the new Adventure Time game, it seems kinda neat from the demo.

Is Sony even making a PlayStation All Stars 2? Would they even care?

 

[f0rk]

Cloud isn't even a good character. It's another emo anime dude with a sword
