Oh my. FTL had it out for me. I go to a location, 2 lanius boarders come on. That coupled with what I was against forced me to jump away, landed in a location, 2 more lanius boarders come on my ship for a total of 4. Jump away! 2 more lanius boards, oh come the fuck on.

and to not get banned :(

Really enjoying my time with the Evil Within so far, although I'm now stuck on the beginning of chapter 6. Haven't read many reviews but so far it feels perfectly modern and there's always been a lot of tools at your disposal.

I need a good fps. What's good on steam that I may not have played?

- not metro series or fallout or cod or moh
- not alien, i'll get that eventually

Wolfenstein. One of my favorite games this year.

EDIT: beat hard, but whatever, I stick to the recommendation.

In FFXIII everyone is intrinsically connected to the world. Sometimes they force some things in with Vanille where she says she didn't pay attention in school or doesn't read the newspaper, but that's somewhat of a stretch.

Without going into spoiler territory, it's, uh, completely reasonable for her to behave like this.

I just realized that now that The Evil Within is out, Bethesda's only big game they have to advertise is Doom 4. Feels like we're either going to get a Prey 2 re-reveal, Dishonored 2, or Fallout 4 or TES6 reveal soon. I would be fine with ANY of those.

If they announced Dishonored 2 or Fallout 4 I'll buy a copy and raffle it off here on GAF.

Btw I unlocked The Evil Within framerate to 60fps. Steady and smooth without a hitch on max settings. The atmosphere is excellent.
I'm scared as fuck.

Fallout 4 reveal at VGX, believe!

I loved it. And Skyrim since Im going for broke

I'm really enjoying Skyrim for the most part. By far the worst part of the game is the infuriating bugs. Thankfully console commands can usually fix them, but it really shouldn't be necessary to use in the first place, and there are just so many bugs >_>

A lot of the characters could use way more character development than they get too. But at least the only character that matters, Serana, gets a bit of that.

Bethesda can't write quests for shit.

The main Dawnguard quests are decent, at least.
 
Good morning guys

Not sure if you're hoping it's developed by them or not, but I certainly am. I honestly enjoyed New Vegas more than Fallout 3. Yeah, it was crazy buggy at first, but I can look past that, as long as the big stuff was fixed. Not a huge fan of them not making a
post-game
, though. That was a problem with Fallout 3, too..

Not to say Fallout 3 was bad, though.

i would love if they could be bothered to make any of the characters likable in dishonored 2

that's my number 1 complaint about that game

I'd really love if it was, but I don't think it's likely. If it was I would pre-order it asap. But it's probably made by Bethesda themselves. So will pick it up @7.5$ for the complete edition a year or two after release.

yup, it's gonna be beth

i don't mind if somehow we get another new vegas kind of deal

like i'm 100% ok with beth doing their own shitty version as long as it doesn't mean the real rpg version is still happening

has Bethesda ever made a good game? I can't think of any.. Fallout 3 is OK, but garbage compared to 1, 2 and New Vegas... and the elder scrolls are poo..

though I would try out a TES game made by Obsidian

Lol it's possible to win every time on easy FTL. 3rd phase, mind control my weapons guy, teleport two guys over, missiles hit perfects to kill guys as they're low on health, o2 taken out. This is the poorest designed end boss I've ever encountered.

When easy is such dependent on luck, normal and hard have got to be just stupid. The game would be much better if the end boss wasn't designed in a manner to just decimate almost anything you can throw against it.

pls notice me senpai

my hate for TES has been made known multiple times lol
i'd rather play dota

but you hate everything and everyone lately. again, my job.

actually thats not true, I like most games, I dont give a fuck, I have the lowest standards ever... I do hate everyone tho.

except Jawmuncher, because he fought in vietnam and I respect that

i dunno if you mean this

but you're right about everything

cept the part about elder scroolls game made by obs

that series is unsalvageable
 
Just got done going through the intro section and a couple side missions for Borderlands TPS...it's as good as I hoped for...so far I have no complaints...now to bed

I do mean it.. I hate TES... it's a walking simulator.. the problem is that, unlike indie games labeled as walking simulators, it's not pretty to look at*

*unless you do the job the devs should have done in the first place by modding it.

the quests are dumb, the stories are dumb, the combat is atrocious.. fans of the series often tell me "it's just great to walk around this environment and take in the story" = Walking Simulator 101

you speak all the truths

gone home is the best skyrim-like game i've ever played

Lol people still using "walking simulator" as something bad. Walking simulators are awesome.
yup

i mean you're riding the story pretty hard, it can backfire and be a total bore like dear esther but you know stanley parable and shit

i don't get why ppl is against the term tho

i'm a fan of the genre and i find it pretty useful

if they are good...

Proteus = good
Gone Home = good
Stanley Parable = good
TES = bad

I'm not using it as something bad, I'm using it as a descriptor of TES gameplay.

The delay for Raven's cry saddens me. It will be difficult for me to have time to spend on it in November when I'll be deep into WoW.
