Yeah, but I'm a terrible Dark Souls 2 player. half of the sunken crown is empty to get to where I am now. But I'll give it another try later.

A one-off at least, an actual LP could be a nightmare but fuck it, I loved the Chrono Trigger one so why the fuck not
He still fucks up the item menu EVERY TIME

The best part is that in Dark 1 he'd be doing it correctly, so when he switches over he'll have the same problem but in the other direction.

I think maybe or maybe not with Woolie being there, but it could be his first time playing while Liam and Pat will binge the game immediately on release. Just Liam and Pat would be fine too.
I love that he fucks it up, as if he played Dark 1. Since they totally switch the tabs in Dark 2. Edit: Aaron stahp

Yeah, but that has nothing to do with skill. Hell, I do that.

I played the demo like forever ago and I remember not being impressed. Maybe if I play it I'll like it better but I don't feel like digging up my ps3 to play it.
Really? I never heard of binary domain before now and it doesn't look that fun.
Nor does TLOU from a shooting mechanic standpoint

Id replay the shit out of Binary Domain whereas TLOU would only warrent a single playthrogh.
It helps that im a lightweight armor guy, hell the armor i have on my character is basically a bra and a poisonous skirt. so I dodge and weave and ceastus the shit out of her or smack her with the pursuers great sword.
Dont use a shield, two hand for bosses, and parry and backstab any lower tier enemy in sight.
Its a fascinating game. I want them to do more.

I loved the shit out it, I guess I have a thing for low ammo counts/high lethality

Binary domain has some really good feeling gunplay, and just as important, their standard enemies are really really fun to kill.
Unfortunately, the bosses take years to kill, and the AI/voice chat system is broken, which hold the game back from being great.

I love high lethality in my games. I've never felt a tension like this before!

Today I reserved my copy of Bayo 2, Alpha Sapphire, and SmashU. It was a good day even if they didn't have any bonuses for doing so.

My problem with the shooting in TLoU is that I couldn't use the bow nearly as much as I wanted to.

Hajime no Ippo: Three episodes in and this is already some hype shit. If the rest of this long, wild ride is this entertaining, I think I'm in for a fun experience.
you'll definitely love Evil Within then. since thats all it's about. Even though the story is batshit insane, the atmosphere is top notch.

I did the same thing a few days ago, it's amazing how good of a hook the show has.
You done right.

I feel that if TLOU have better shooting mechanics, at least in my eyes, it would have been a worse game.
The jank around the shooting wasn't just there to make stealth the default option. It was there to increase the tension. Every bullet meant something. You had to plan out each encounter. You had to pay attention to the details.
I loved it. If the game had RE6 mechanics, I probably would have left the game a lot less impressed.
You are totally correct, my brother.

I'll buy it eventually, I just bought isolation and I gotta save up for the wii u.
I understand completely, I prefer a fluid combat system over story/setting anyday anyway. Its what makes RE6 bearable.
Playing RE6 mercs is such sublime experience. doing suplexs, and elbow drops on hordes of zombies, slipping and sliding through enemies and planting a mine and diving away from the explosion.

FF13 is not as bad as everyone said it was.
Have you guys read DDD.
Here is a short summary of it.,
DDD. Decoration Disorder Disconnection. A set of novels by Kinoko Nasu that explores the notion of "Demonic Possession". No direct connections to the rest of the Nasuverse yet.
In a certain part of Japan, there is a Syndrome. People argue just what this is, but it's the next level beyond "mental illness" and some people even argue that it's Demonic Possession. Some argue it's just a mutation triggered by emotional levels not natural in normally functioning human beings. It's called "Agonist Syndrome;" where the mind shapes the body. And since the mind usually isn't healthy...
Also, the real demons are a little bit upset by these people stealing their thunder. Well, technically, demons aren't real. Neither are what most Agonists turn into. It takes something unreal to fight something unreal. Confused yet? Yeah, this series will do that.
Arika is a rare Abnormal Agonist Albino with one arm who is considered rather harmless. Slightly odd, he'll comment that one should never tell him anything serious during daylight hours, and nothing silly at night. He is employed by rather bizarre and sadistic yet beautiful man-boy named Kirie Karyou, who claims to be a "Demon Master." His only job is to put on and take off Kirie's prosthetic limbs, something for which he is paid 200,000 yen ($1600) a month.

The only shoot bangs I've ever gotten anywhere near competent at is RE4/5/6 and Halo 3. Gonna rent Evil Within tonight and hopefully I like it.

Shoot bangs are really, really hard to make.
Shooting has to be both good and satisfying. There are so many games that get one right, but not the other.
I play video games for gameplay, but sometimes imperfections add more than competency. The Souls games are pretty much this in action.

He's slow, just grab a summon or two and let them aggro him or let him aggro you while you/they deal with nashandra.
I get that, its what makes the first three silent hill games so tense and the early RE games as well.
TLOU should have had tank controls.

You're right, though. The gameplay in Persona is jank. Now, if you said it's better than SMT than we'd have a problem.
Ah ok, I just hope there some people online, not sure how NPCs will fare. Thank you.

Actual on topic stuff
Do I need to get us talking about Michael Cera or Sword Art Online again?
Or even... PIZZA!?!?
Banana Aeon

That...That's a better way of putting it. Mechanics should be based on the game they are in, and not in comparison to others.
The shooting mechanics in TLOU are great for what they are.

I feel like Calzone has the better atmosphere and texture.
The sauce mechanics are better in pizza though
