Didn't For Honor get announced for PC at the same time as the other versions?
 
God, I want Battlezone 2 to be remastered

I remember playing the demo for it and being impressed lol

but I'am genuinely glad that Battlezone 1 got remastered.

And that's not even mentioning a new Metal Gear game announced for PC!

I used to cheese the shit out of Mount and Blade siege defenses back in the day.

Most castles had a single ladder and you could use a long weapon to just keep picking them off when they got to the top. Like 300 killed by my hand.

I once had to defend my castle against a combined attacked from an entire kingdom.
I was very powerful and king by then so I could hold around 700 troops with the towns defence. They came with slightly over 2000.
I put myself at the main ladder and left all my troops at the other entry. With a 2H sword, I just did the top-down cleaving attack for the longest time.
I actually managed to defend and had ~900 kills. My character had no recognizable texture left because it was entirely painted red.
 
Pretty much. Monster Hunter on Steam is a pipe dream though, I honestly don't think it's ever gonna happen. The decisions that company makes just defy all logic.

Oh, we will probably get something like Monster Hunter Online. Except that's not what we want!
And after that fails in the western market, they will use it as an excuse to prevent any future ports.

Not what we want but still better than playing one of the clones, imo. The gameplay in MHO actually looks quite good to me, and I'd definitely put some money and time into it if there were NA servers.

I think the 3DS emulator will be ready before MHO comes out in the west tho :p

Circuits is actually a legitimately pretty cool game.



galak-z is pretty good, i find the control scheme to be kind of tiring on my fingers but i sort of think that's mostly the ps4 controller being kind of not very comfortable?

I really dislike the PS4 controller for this reason. The triggers and dpad are nice but it is really uncomfortable.

It doesn't help that the one we have in the office is an original, which also had shitty sticks. Just lowers my opinion of it even more.

I hope No Man's Sky goes on deep discount and they work the bugs out soon because I watched a let's play and it does seem pretty fun in a discovering stuff kind of way.

Have you actually played God Eater? Sure its a hunting game with co-op but still... its not really a clone in terms of gameplay style at all.

Wait...what?

You plan on beating Legion in one day?

I'm playing it right now, so it counts.

That seems like the way to do it. They have already made some good progress, but they will continue iterating in the game with fixes and the content Hello Games are planning on adding in the short term seems interesting.

I find that most people that try to use the term "MH clone" have no actual idea of how differently the game they say it's a clone plays.

Played it on PSP, didn't like the combat. I've played enough of the hunting games to know that MH is the only one I want to play. Toukiden is the closest of the others to being good but it's just too damn easy compared to MH.

Ya, sure thing. I should have said hunting game instead of clone to keep your panties untwisted.

People who say hunting games have no idea how different hunting a monster is from hunting a deer.

I'm more interested in a solid clone than the "great" original simply because it's on a platform(s) where good controls are possible.

Have tried many times to get into MH and the idea that I'd rather be playing it elsewhere was always dominating my thoughts.

What is your avatar a reference to?

One of the more difficult things in God Eater is probably the bullet customization I'll say, its definitely enjoyable though.

MH4 was the first one that i really got into cause one of the weapons finally clicked with me, its that new charge blade thingie or switchblade, whatever its called. that weapon works like a dream for me. I've actually been debating if i should pick up monster hunter generations or the new hitman. on one hand i can play mh in my 30~40 min bus ride to and from school, hitman can also be some good casual fun as well from time to time... decisions, decisions...

People will call out when you completely misuse a word with well defined meaning, yes.

I'd like to finally try MH. I've never played it(fuck handhelds) and never tried any of it's clones. I came close to buy Toukiden Kiwami but never bit the bullet and god eater is only now coming to a console I own after 6 years of hearing about it.

Just saw the Metal Gear Survive trailer...

That... that was unexpected. I seriously thought that if Konami made a new MGS it would have been just the MGSV gameplay with a new main character and a new overworld, not... that.
