I hope so. Funny thing is I am big fan of spinoff Final Fantasy games rather than the main games, excluding 9. RE Outbreak is a game I wish Capcom would revisit, that game and it's sequel was just made one console generation too early. Also nice tag lol.
Here's hoping I like it.

You will. It has a lot of variety in playstyle,and it's certainly much better than FFXIII.

Outbreak was always ahead of the curve. Now would be the perfect time for it. Glad I got it back even if it changed lol.
Im gonna be THAT guy and say I liked XIII more. But then again I have no qualms with XIII. XIII-2 on the other hand....

I only played 13 off hand and watched a playthrough of it. Other than being pretty 13 kinda doesn't interest me to say the least lol.
There is some merit in 13, I can see why people like combat system (kinda) so I get that. I keep hearing how bad 13-2 is though and I never seen anything really of it, just bad songs from its OST. I hear that even people that loved 13 and Lightning Returns, say just play those 2 games and only read up 13-2.
Is it really that bad?
Jawmuncher

It's just really a off kind of game to me. You can just feel it was made to recoup costs on 13. Not to mention its the oddest sequel I've ever had to chance to witness. Plus a lot of the new systems which are so odd or too different to like. Blood damage system in combat (that prevents from healing full?) why. Recruiting monsters as party members isn't as fun to me as just getting real party members. Story is even more nonsensical. It's really just all over the place for me. Most people who like it mainly enjoy it for the fact that there are side quests and it's more open than hallway 13.
I beat it in 20-25 hours I recall as well. Bought it on PC just to assure I would get Lightning Returns which I am still waiting on.

13-2 feels more like a typical anime I would say. It is not bad. The battle system is actually better than 13 and the missions are kinda cool. Also the time travel mechanics are cool. The areas in general are kinda small, so you have the same area three times, but in different times. They dont feel really different though.
For the asking price on Steam its a no brainer though.
The story is a bit of a mess though and really feels kinda childish.

Played RAGE for a couple hours. Man, combat is fast as heck! Really gets you pumped! One thing which is unique is how your ammo actually gets low during combat. Unlike other shooters ammo doesn't hold steadily by fallen enemies.
The weapon feedback is a bit too low for my taste though. A bit more omph would have been appreciated.
The moody atmosphere of the wasteland made me all moody though. Need something uplifting -_-'

Dope. Got ch.4 of Dream Machine. Thanks spindoctor! Only one ch. missing now.

I see. The recruiting monsters thing sounds about as tacked on as it was for Tales of Symphonia 2. It's just an odd game, I get ya.
Price a bit too much for me and I am kind of weary of KT games on Steam at the moment.
EDIT: Case in point of what lashman linked above.

What the fuck is up with Japanese developers singling out perfectly capable cards and saying their game won't run properly on them? Second time this has happened this month.
Chairmanchuck

Manufacturing issues.
Lol 30fps lock but I'll wait for sale prices.

I think Steam needs a new dedicated tag to easily identify these "quality" Japanese ports, call it "please understand" or something. The criteria to use this hallowed tag being:
-(ideally) should be a late port
-must have a batshit insane price tag to match the above
-must have various compatibility issues with modern GPUs
Bonus points if there are limited/no resolution options.
Leafhopper

I'm for this.
I wait for the game that gets ported where the resolutions are simply Small, Medium, and Large.
MarcoZombieCannon
Member
I'm almost expecting a "Graphics? Yes/No" option in one of these ports.
Running in compatibility mode seems like a simple enough work around until they get it fixed.
Price is way to high for a late port of a MH clone though. I'll probably pick it up at ~50% off, just because there isn't really anything else in the genre on PC.

Hypertextmension Neptunia would be a rad spinoff.So it just turns into a text adventure?
Binding of Isaac?
i think i need this
Leafhopper

Wait, they did that? lol.
Shame about the PC Port. Would be cool if they reworked the HD edition to PC.
Definitely. I'm kinda bummed out they did 4 instead of this one. I really hope they go back to it next. I've been tempted to grab the current PC version many times but I keep hearing that it's complete garbage.

You guys are super generous. Thanks for the opportunity.

That is always the case with KT games. I mean we get those games at a later date and they expect us to pay 50% for that.
Then I check the Ghostlight Games or Neptunia which is 30$ (and 15$ during its release).
I dont want to pay 50$ for something that might be 20-25$ in 2-3 months.
To be fair, it was made by two people in like two months. It's amazing they were able to do what they did, as janky as it is.
Also, it launched at $5 and goes on sale from that price all the time.

Ah didn't know that. Never really played Binding of Isaac, not my kinda game.

Is that still a problem with that engine after all these years? With some minor .cnfg edits I got rid of texture pop-in completely. Maybe they'll fix that problem with their engine?

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
lol those "hot" fires and the secret poop get me every time
EDIT: Also, I think this is the longest I've seen a mystery giveaway go unclaimed... You guys are making me want to tempt my fate (though I won't because I'm sure I already have whatever it is)

Very interested in Toukiden: Kiwami reviews. Never played a "Monster Hunter" game but I'm intrigued by the idea of boss-only-fights.
Chairmanchuck
Member
I bite myself in the ass if its Toukiden
Toukiden isnt actually a MH game. It feels like a mix between MH and a Musou game. MH games are kinda slow, while Toukiden has a faster pace and is generally far easier from what I have played of it before.
Iosefe usually takes the bullet for us. He might be out playing with his Alienware friends right now, someone page him please.
- Nevermind, it's gone.

I wouldn't call MH slow. More deliberate. You certainly can't spam things.

Musou, huh? That's actually a genre I am not into, haha
But I'll gladly change my opinion when TK managed to make it fun for me.
