I was cracking the biggest smile within the first 5 minutes of doom. If it keeps this up.....papa bless
If the opening section is any indication, the narrative is literally treated as a joke by the main character.
It looks like they've fleshed some things out, but it's all about the gameplay.
They are targeting a different audience now unfortunately.
What's really strange is their marketing with Doom. They develop a shooter in the modern era, with old-school sensibilities than directly market to the lowest common denominator.

Why Bethesda thought the MP was the way to go for marketing is beyond me. Didn't help that the e3 reveal felt really off. The game is such a 180 from what people were expecting it's crazy. A lot of talk was basically "it'll probably be alright" to GOTY contender for a lot of people on GAF. Which isn't something that happens too often with games around here.
If you are of legal age I may be able to help with that.
Legal? Im old enough to be your dad, get off my fucking lawn

Resident Evil Revelations, I played the demo on the PC and 3DS years ago and a friend gave me an extra code they had lying around. The combat, is good and clunky at the same time. Weird.
Well Overwatch isn't a free to play game after all.

I'm glad that Blizzard is going down this route, League, and similar F2P games, are extremely predatory.

You bet your ass Blizzard was going to charge for new heroes, the staff has been dodging that question for many weeks until they decided to make it free to get people to preorder.
Make everyone go down Lulu's path.
you sure?
i might keep a save handy in case this sucks hard
well i mean, you pay for map packs in call of duty, iirc are gonna pay for characters in the new street fighter, it's not a f2p thing only
i'd say league has among the least predatory f2p models considering it was gacha free until very recently (unlike say dota) and is relatively simple in how it offers things (grind or buy, that's all there is to it)
and (even for as much as i dislike it existing) the loot system is fairly harmless
so yeah, there's a big fat paywall for sure, but extremely predatory, i wouldn't call it that
whatever their reason i'm glad they chose to have the game content available for free, even if i'm fairly sure they'll sell skins and whatnot
Nah, if I gave a serious recommendation I'd suggest sticking to everyone's normal path until you get to the Chocobo Eater.
or i can cheat and get all the spheres i need now :O
From the outside it seems very predatory as they constantly release heroes where they are motivated to make extremely powerful to force payments.
I would like to get a second opinion on this, would you concede that you have a chance for bias in this regard? (Your favorite game and you have a conflict of interest due to your sunk cost potentially effecting your opinion).
I'm mostly recommending that because you'll get better results in their base "classes" early in the game.
It's super fun. It really balances that line between crazy arena shooting and exploration. Except I can't figure out how to open that damn secret door in the first level
I 100%ed the second level and I was hoping to clear it out before I moved on and I just spent the last 30 minutes wasting my time.uncredited male

I used to go nuts min-maxing in FFX. Everyone had max stats and 999 MP. Only activated perfect nodes. All that was left was hundreds of cleared nodes where I needed HP spheres from some flan arena boss. I couldn't do that crap anymore. I think that game broke me.
Best armor ability is auto-haste BTW.
Maybe I will start up an X-2 run. But I am down to the last 3 challenges in Diablo 3 season 6. But one is some bullshit level to 70 in hardcore mode.

You could do a no-sphere grid run.
That's what I've been doing so far.
The I abused supercharge mode a bit.

Just screw the story and play blitzball then.
SE needs to combine Triple Triad and Blitzball into some freaky hybrid standalone game.
sure but misinformation doesn't help anyone:
constantly releasing champions: around 5 or 6 champions a year. for a regular player, it's very easy to grind the 6300ip in two months by just regularly playing the game. most people also don't buy every single champion (i play mid so i wouldn't buy a jungler), so it's not that big of a deal
op champions on release: this has historically not been true. if u go through the list of champions you'll find a ton of champions that have been underpowered and needed buffs not long after release. sometimes they're stupid broken, but it's definitely not something that happens regularly
this is modern league, aka 2012+ league, old league was a very different beast
u can argue about how bad it is to sell champions but u know, get ur facts straight!
Do play blitzball.

My blitzball team used to be a harem.
The goalie was basically Tenchi.

is the blitzball mini game actually fun? I ask because I remember when I was playing dissidia the main character in from that game had some blitzball related moves so I assumed he is like a a blitzball champ within the game world.
I'm 25 but I look like I'm 14 years old.
i often wonder what ppl think of tim sweeney's comments now about UWP. He seemed to have gotten a tonne of backlash for it but i do think what he said was true...
Yeah, I got the Blitzball related unlocks like that. Well no speed up option on the Vita so I just had to wait 5 minutes for every game.

I'm assuming this is a real thing from NuDoom:
I hope someone finds a Portal reference next.
