JaseC,

Could you possibly explain your obsession interest in Ms. Saoirse?

Is she your waifu?

When did they start releasing pc versions?

I find it extremely hard to believe that someone over the age of 20 has only played games on a PC ever.

Does anyone in this thread like getting Steam Achievements?

For some reason I hate Playstation Trophies (used to love them), but now I'm finding Steam achievements fun to go for. Maybe it's because I can feel good even when I don't 100% a game, whereas on the PS3, if I didn't get the platinum trophy, I didn't feel like I was done. Weird.

I liked them back when they unlocked codes/special content, like in the days up to and including the N64 (DKMode/Akimbo in 007GE64 for example), but as a way to determine some kind of gamer rank, no. I disregard them almost entirely.

 

[gabbo]

I find it extremely hard to believe that someone over the age of 20 has only played games on a PC ever.

I'm asking because I never played them on the consoles, and my primary gaming system since i was about 10 has been a pc. That would be how I never came into contact with them

 

[nexen]

I never liked the side-scrolling Castlevanias. I'm really interested in this one though.

I tried to play the NES ones on an emulator recently and couldn't get into them at all. The PSX one seemed ok.

Castlevania 3 holds up really well.

Castlevania 3 holds up really well.

I'll give it another try but having no nostalgia for the series really makes it a chore to visit the earlier games.

edit: I'm mostly interested in the new ones because I think MercurySteam is an underrated dev. They did a lot of things right in Jericho.

Great Coffee & Cookies, Steam-GAF amazing-kind-polite-friendly-Community and some good old Defense Grid gameplay. Yep, today is relaxing day. Feel good.

Also, fellow GAFfer Stump is it possible to see how many GAFfers entered in the Bioshock raffle? Just curious to see the ration between people who post here every now and then VS people who entered in the contest. Thanks in advance.

The annoying thing is that there are collectibles (vehicle parts, weapon parts and cash stashes), water towers, fuel pumps, etc. scattered throughout non-settlement locations, but as far as I can tell the game offers no hints as to their whereabouts, so I'm not going to bother chasing them down (Edit: You obviously have the proximity indicator for the aforementioned collectibles, but you need to be in the vicinity for it to be of any use). Also, I've read that the world file the game reads from is missing the final water tower that actually adds to the completion percentage, but it can be added via a mod.

Thanks for posting about that final tower, if I ever got to that point and wasn't aware it was missing I'd be sort of pissed haha. Good thing it can be added through modding.

Didn't know there were collectibles in non-settlement areas either, kind of shitty since you only have the proximity radar.

I do. As long as I'm having fun and it's a game I enjoy, I'll do everything. I usually want to keep playing anyway, so anything is an "excuse" to continue messing around.

Not on PC, but I remember in KH1 on the PS2 I kept going and going after I beat it, synthesizing everything, maxing out Sora's stats, etc, just for the sake of it. There were no achievements but I kept doing random crap because I liked it so much. Same for TWEWY more recently, both on DS and iOS. If there's a pop-up and a some arbitrary mark to strive towards, then all the better. I know it's looked down upon by some players and is seen as "artificially lengthening the game" but I just enjoy this sort of stuff.

Having no idea who she was at the time, I looked her up afterwards and had my mind blown when I discovered that she was the girl from The Lovely Bones... and City of Ember... and Atonement.

I had the same with Diane Kruger after seeing the Troy: Director's Cut

 

[Cth]

Next you're gonna tell us you've never played a Metroid before...

umm..

I might have played 5 minutes of it on the SNES

I skipped the NES era as I was more into the C64 at the time.

 

[RionaaM]

That's the last Castlevania you played?

I never played Symphony of the Night, nor any of the DS ones. Please don't kill me

EDIT: nor the GBA ones. Basically, I only played the first few stages of C1 and 3, 2 minutes of C2 and some stages of Super Castlevania IV (which was great), all on the Wii VC.

It is being obscure for the sake of it, because it's something that you can't find in games today and some people really love it - maybe you're just not among them, that's entirely possible. In the same way that some people like open-world over authored corridors and vice-versa, maybe you just prefer a bit of guidance, when the aim of this game is specifically to provide none at all. But: there is no luck at all, it is pure observation and deduction and assimilation, and the way the game presents more mysteries as you unravel previous ones can be truly engrossing and it shows that it's not just a case of "random game with hidden rules", it's an experience carefully crafted around the concept of discovery. The author knows that when you find out about X, you'll stumble on Y and it will blow your mind.

I like your description of the game, even if I didn't enjoy what little I played of it. I'll give it another chance, and hopefully it'll click with me then.

I actually made a thread last year to ask what the best portable Castlevanias were.

The consensus was Aria of Sorrow and Order of Eclesia was the best, and Dawn of Sorrow being great as well.

Portrait of Ruin and Harmony of Despair were skippable.

Don't remember the consensus on Circle of the Moon.

I love them. I usually skim the 100% breakdowns from the X360 achievement/PS3 trophy guides (the benefits of mutliplatform games) to decide if I want to go for all the achievements too.

I was planning on 100%ing Bioshock Infinite until the most recent DLC ruined that desire.

My thoughts on this: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?p=71409386&highlight=#post71409386

Everything post Aria (including it) beats SOTN. Symphony of the Night is an amazing game but it is CONSTANTLY hailed as the best Castlevania when it's clearly been surpassed for a long time now (OoT syndrome much?)


I'd like to talk about Portrait of Ruin. What a masterpiece. It's such a shame that people fail to see how brilliant it is. Okay, it had a bad story and bad character art and overall the atmosphere is kinda lacking when compared to the rest of the franchise; I don't mean to claim that it's perfect in every way, it has many flaws.
But gameplay-wise, it is the absolute best. It is incredibly smooth, the weapons all have a perfect feel and are super varied, and having the two characters allows a kind of flow that's not been matched by any other Metroidvania that I know of. It is simultaneously rigid and precise on one hand, and super dynamic on the other, like playing two instances of Dark Souls at the same time if you see what I mean. I think the devs tried to replicate this with OoE's dual-wielding, but obviously it wasn't as successful, even though the resulting system is kinda interesting. The gameplay, the level and monster design, the mechanics of Portrait of Ruin stand head and shoulders above that of any other Castlevania.

It's such a shame that, yeah, the characters are dense and the story blows.

There's some interesting discussion in the replies.

I like getting achievements on Steam, but I feel like Valve doesn't care about them much and there is so much more they could be doing in Steam with them (in terms of community and profiles, etc.). The Achievement Showcase is a good new addition though.

[HoosTrax]

There's some interesting discussion in the replies.

My main complaints re: OoE and PoR is that they felt more like Disney-franchise games with Metroidvania gameplay than they did a proper Castlevania game. That "atmosphere" and character art thing you alluded to.

SoTN, on the other hand, was much too easy of a game, although that was partly the fault of the player if they went out of their way to level grind or farm Crissaegrim.

Personally, I think the one that doesn't get enough love was Circle of the Moon. Which is probably understandable since it stars a random no-name, forgettable character. But I loved the dark, gothic art style.

 

[Stumpokapow]

Also, fellow GAFfer Stump is it possible to see how many GAFfers entered in the Bioshock raffle? Just curious to see the ration between people who post here every now and then VS people who entered in the contest. Thanks in advance.

117 unique entries, but it doesn't try to apply any of the per-raffle rules (like the no lurkers rule) until it draws for a winner, so not sure how many are valid.

Dammit, I PM'd Modbot twice (thought it was a new raffle). Will that disqualify me or something?
