Grats!

I haven't played Nier, but Nioh is pretty great

The butt robot gives you the intellectual challenge.

I'm not shitting on Horizon, I'm saying the faces there look like an improved version of other Bioware games like DA:I's animations. ME:A's are somehow way worse then what they've made before

I know, sarcasm is hard to convey sometimes, sorry.

Depends on what you're in the mood for. Some punishing ass Dark Souls/Ninja Gaiden type stuff, or an open worldish JRPG with Platinum gameplay?

It can be a marital aid.

I haven't played Nier, but I'd go that way just for the mind fuckery and the booty androids.

When does Taco Bell announce their winner?

Dying at this, I never knew the origin either. I wonder what episode that is

 

[Catvoca]

When does Taco Bell announce their winner?

Should be sometime today. I don't know why but I feel like Dan isn't going to win. If he does, I voted for him twice so I expect an invite.

I know, sarcasm is hard to convey sometimes, sorry.

Oh whoops, my bad

Nier, on easy, if available. I mean, you did/do have to defend yourself against cynical profs. Why make life harder?

He won't win, but he'll still get a free wedding out of it. He'll just miss out on the airfare and other benefits of winning.

Start with Nier as it's shorter.

 

[Salarians]

Everyone should play Nier Automata.

Apparently they did use facial capture to some degree with ME:A. So, while the tech might be more complex, the end result looks worse than what they've done before.

ME1's animations were very impressive for their time and they've (mostly) held up pretty well, despite the simplicity.

Lol god dammit

oh my god lol

Good lord I needed that

 

[StudsMcKewl]

Lmao wow.

 

[Jennipeg]

Lol, you should send that to him.

I'm watching the stream now, it doesn't look... great, does it? I wan't it to be good purely because Natalie Dormer is in it and I love her.

And what is with the expressionless woman with too much makeup?

too good

 

[Dineren]

I imagine it is very unlikely, but are there any spoilers for the first Nier in the QL? I'm still playing through it for the first time.

I doubt it, none of the three know much about it

None of them have played it

Oh no...does he atleast use the dodge?

 

[dogpowerd]

I'm gonna try and pretend that a side effect of being cryo sleep is all your facial muscles get destroyed.

 

[Fantastapotamus]

I find stuff like that just fascinating. I really want to know how this happens. Bioware is an experienced dev, EA is a giant publisher how does this happen.

My submission:

 

[daveo42]

Am I right in assuming overrides are basically Mount or AI fight buddy? I thought I read that each machine would have a relatively unique effect but haven't really encountered anything past those two routines.

It's just that really. The difference is more in terms of what they can do in combat. A Thunderjaw would be a way better combat bot over a Watcher and certain ones are better mounts or more versatile in both aspects. Still wish you could ride a thunderjaw or sawtooth or even a stormbird into battle. That would absolutely be badass.

I guess they should've let Mass Effect take a longer break.

 

[Mr. F]

Drew closing in on $20k, damn dude.

I knew it.

Or let the main studio that made the first 3 handle the flagship franchise and not a new studio.

 

[Jennipeg]

I love how Jeff is becoming more and more baffled by ME, he is vocalising my reactions perfectly throughout the stream. I'm still hoping the overall game is good.

Ok I'm going with Nier, cheers guys

Phew good thing I didn't watch it. Having finished the game I had no interest in the QL.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

Oh no...does he atleast use the dodge?

i dont think he knows there is a lockon in normal mode either

 

[Fantastapotamus]

The sad part is, that the combat actually looks fun. I like it when games give you a lot of freedom of movement. I'll play this once it's part of the EA vault in 12 months or so

 

[YuriLowell]

What are they making?

 

[TharpDaddy]

What are they making?

They're working on a new IP.

Listening to Peter discuss ME:A on Bombcast and he doesn't dig it either.
