The first Zeno clash was really good, the second wasn't, it was too confusing.
I think they focused on the wrong things in the sequel.

Cryo had such a good idea for a scary premise.
When you enter the past you know you are moments from death so you have to quickly figure it out, looking at anything going on to help you.
Props to whoever thought of that.

>>255330391
"Mixed" is a good way to describe it. To put it simply, it's a ridiculously complicated game where you can hack into a door, fuck up and be reverse-hacked by the door and die. That's the kind of game it is.

And I love it for that.

Probably because it's kinda shit

>>255330391
A clusterfuck of awesome that takes time to get into. First time playing I wasn't able to get into it at all because of the bad translation and general confusion, but after buckling down and actually learning how the game mechanics worked, I found myself enjoying it much more.

Hmm interesting, I guess I might get to it then. For whatever reason I seem to like games that are polarizing to people, I don't try to but when I like a game I usually look at what other people thought and its usually always mixed.
It also makes it so there arent a lot of games I like that don't try something interesting

what you are doing is not a discussion. I get that you are having fun or whatever, but its kind of stupid.
Go ahead and say why you didn't like it. But simply saying something is "shit" is just a red flag that you don't form opinions in a way that we need to talk about

>>255331306
Now I know you're a nigger. There's almost always indicators on the HUD telling you where to go, also you can change the spawn rate to a smaller size.

>>255331108
Don't remember #1 well enough to say if the controller support is better or worse, only that I didn't have any problems with it in #2. Played it couch co-op on PC with 2 controllers.

Co-op is the entire regular game, p2 plays as Ghat's sister (who plays identically).

1's was really bad, and with how the style of fighting is I really wanted a controler. So happy to hear its same screen co-op though, holy shit that's amazing in this day and age.

For 1 you could only have one joystick work with everything I tried, (didn't use any mods though) which is obviously going to be hard in that game.
The only thing I didn't really like in 1 was the fight with Motherfather, really weak AI. But Motherfather looked so cool and weird I could over look it.

One of my favorite DS games. Its developed by sonic team and its similar to the game WarioWare.
The game gets a bit repetitive at times but it makes up for it with good humor and it's goofy games like avoiding kisses from your stalker.

>>255331917
It was pretty great, actually. Shame the game would grind you into dust if you didnt collect all the runes until the final mission for that sword.

>>255328460
I feel like if they would've not switched to the different engine it would've been a better game.

>>255331853
Hmm, I can totally see someone not liking the game especially if they didn't like the combat. One thing about it is its hard to take a break and get into it again, but once I got the combat down I was having fun with it. I also really liked how you could run around and fuck people up with guns, chuck them at them and kick the shit out of them.
Did you like the world design or was there just nothing for you in it?

>>255332423
God I hated that game. The gameplay was good, but the story was an entirely different matter. And the dialogues were cheesy and terribly written, in my opinion.

>>255332423

Wasn't it originally a Deus Ex multiplayer game?

>>255329896
For all it's flaws, I love this game. Biggest issue was the lack of balance for gun specs, handgun > everything.

>>255332418
>I don't think anyone ever played that game for the mechanics.

Ha yeah probably not, but when you see a game thats a first person fighting game, or beat-em up youre interested to see how they do it.
Its a tall order, and its cool someone tried it. A few changes in you and your enemies health probably would have made it better, quicker fights and stuff. But damn you feel some satisfaction from taking out a bunch of nutjobs.

Yeah that blind sniper was fun, especially because he really felt like he was somehow blind, which made him fun to shoot at.

>>255331768
One of the very few games with this type of wild west mystical setting, and it had every gun use a unique melee attack which was great.

>>255332586
>>255332624
Possibly. It had the speed and movement of a great multiplayer, but it also didn't feel finished. I liked playing it, but trying to get immersed and involved was difficult.

>>255331882
The slice of life style story was fantastic, legit humor and great trio of characters. Only real complaint I have is that once you understand the battle system it becomes a little too easy.

It's a Sega subsidiary. Of course they aren't going to do any more to it. They've abandoned all of their IPs to shove Sonic into everything, even Disney films and Mario games. If we're lucky, it might get an HD re-release, but knowing Sega they'll just directly map the controls to new controllers without recalibrating them like they did with JSR.

So open ended. Playing stuff like this and the more popular Baldur's Gate make me sad at how much of a step back we've taking for choices and paths in games.
I was just playing BG2 when I did the quest where you solve the murders in the first big city, and remembered when they did it in skyrim. In BG2 you found clues buy talking to people, and tried to figure out where they led, in Skyrim they put waypoints up to the people you talk to.

They should remake some Isometrics in first person, then they can have an easier time keeping all the choices and consequences while updated some combat. Or at least be using those as their inspiration

if the way of getting money doesn't really make any sense its pretty stupid. JRPGs should have little profession mechanics that you can get into so its not just killing monsters with big wallets.
Not to mention, there's hardly a point in spending money on weapons or armor, its all consumables, I would kind of like to see something worth saving your coins for.
But JRPGs are starting to finally iron out some kinks so maybe we'll see something like that.

This game.

This game has probably one of the saddest stories in gaming history. Advent Rising was created by these two brothers who started the idea in 1992 as a comic book. It was supposed to be their life work. They really wanted the series to be the next spawn or one of the greats. The brothers eventually got a deal with Glyphx to make a game. The game was promoted to hell, even had a 1 million contest for the game. The game sold shit, the company went bankrupt, the game was overshadowed by the fucking powerhouse Psychonauts at the time, and in the end, Glyphx took everything with them even Advent Rising which the brothers could no longer work on because they no longer owned it. Their fucking life work, all those years for nothing. And the game was supposed to be this Tetralogy with a huge comic book and movie. It was all over right when it began.

If the game succeeded it probably would have been the Mass Effect before Mass Effect.

>>255330362

Loved this game as a kid. Actually became a spiritual precursor to Kung Fu Panda.

The worst part was the platforming. Sliding and small targets. Bizarrely, however, the fighting was super tight and had excellent hitboxes. I played it last month and was taken aback by how accurate the attacks are. Humorously, there's a bit later in the game where you learn Monkey Style fighting techniques to progress; if you monkey bounce on the lanterns you actually get far more accuracy than if you'd just jumped.

>>255337823
Quite fun, it had a huge amount of presets to make a nice variety of movies, it also a "sims" flavour to it, the expansion only worked on the english version of the game, but anyway, I have to admit, I never enjoyed the whole side of working on your actors and pleasing them, there was this "automated mode" and you cant make your custom movies until you unlock it, it doesnt take much, but it does work at creating movies of all genres, if you like the idea do play it, dang it desperately needs a sequel.

Because Aspyr, the publisher, refused to support it. I don't know if Steam policy has changed any, but the way it used to work, if enough people had an unplayable game, you had to fix that shit or at least attempt to. Aspyr said "lol no" and so Valve removed it. In their defense, at the time, Wideload was either dying or in the death throws of being owned by Disney, so they weren't exactly available to fix it. Aspyr would have had to hire a team of people to patch a fucking xbox port, not a very attractive proposition for a game that didn't even sell that well.

The first game still had a major flaw that ruined it for me. I.e: the combat was built for one on one fighting, but the game kept throwing you into one versus many.

Fairly early in the game you're up against your teacher in the first proper 1v1 fight (though he spawns ghosts / clones that assist him towards the end, if I recall correctly), and that was by far the most fun I had in that game. The rest of the game was pretty much just me trying to get a few punches in on a guy, having the auto-lock tunnel vision on aforementioned enemy, and then getting butt plundered by his ally. It just got annoying when landing one punch meant that A and D no longer made you strafe, but circle around your target while still in range of him and everyone close to him. By far the most viable strategy was hit and run - run in, do a few very quick punches and the dash off. Instead of actually getting into the fighting and doing all the dodges and parries and combos and shit,

It was under appreciated. The game sold like shit. Faggots today are just realizing about this game now after years of the game's release through GOG. Shows you how scrubby the gaming community is. Now everyone and their mother talks about it, I remember the days in /v/ when Planescape was a hidden gem discussed to those who secretly discussed the game during late night threads, similar to what Thief was before Thief 2014. Now you practically see it mention in every 3x3 thread.

I liked the first one alot better. Classes were tighter, maps were simpler, getting juice mattered, games were faster, and matches could go either way many times.

SMNC was more of a stat-based moba with specific values and shit whereas the first one was about the simple mechanics of the game.

Also, one hit kills like headshots, backstabs, ringouts, headcrabs, point blank shotgun blasts and juiced explosives were close to nonexistent in SMNC, compared to them being a common occurrence and practice in MNC.

tl;dr, fuck that shit, mnc was better, had more maps, cleaner style and faster gameplay.

No, and I don't want to.
What has that to do with anything?

call of jaurez: gunslinger

i grabbed it on sale, this downlodable only game shits on ubisofts AAA titles in every single fucking department, the gunplay is fun, the story although nothing groundbreaking, is told in an enjoyable way, it looks better than fucking botch_dogs and you can combo your kills which is fun as fuck

what the fuck is going on over at ubi

Would've been nice if the game didn't end after Barcelona

We need more discworld games. I'm surprised his daughter hasn't tried to tackle it yet

this fucking game was so charming but it was so easy and reeked of shonen anime. If the execution was a bit better, a movie of this game would be pretty fantastic.

>>255344314
holy shit glorious nipponese steel

i'll have to give this game a try, people been talkin bout it a lot here too

>>255340163
that game was actually really great. path of neo played way better, but that game was actually really fucking good too. ending was stupid.

Anyone knows this game?

>>255336279
So much fun multiplayer.

There was a spiritual sequel on the Xbox, but it wasn't as good.

>>255346641
the other CoJ games were mediocre or terrible, this one was a fluke

>>255346617
Then you didn't really play the game all the way through.
That's like complaining that SM64 is too short and easy when you just got only the stars needed to beat Bowser.

>>255346641
Most fun game I bought in the Steam sale. Runs like a gem too, apart from a couple of random fps drops at odd parts.

>>255347002
Well, it is. I mean, you're free to post a screenshot that proves me wrong.

>>255346378
call of duty 4 (when the cancer really started) was an attempt to capture the halo audience so it's still halo's fault

I'm on about his daughter, she writes videogames now. She did the last tomb raider and a few others

Someone else who really enjoyed this? One of the few games that actually did a zombie game right imo

>>255347038
Of course I didn't play game all the way through, and I've just told you why I didn't.
I don't even know why you're talking about stealth when I've never before mentioned it.

I gotta say, I want another game like this. The same weird-ass story, stats, fighting style, etc.

>>255346973

>>255347203

By what fucking metric?
Call of Duty and Halo play nothing alike, you're really grasping at straws here. And CoD 3 was trying to get the console shooter audience before 4 was.

>>255347373
that game was so surreal. would've loved another but that games story is hard for me to even remember making a whole lot of sense. like, i don't know who the fuck the bad guy even was in that game. was it you, the doctor, the other guys, who? everyone sort of seemed like nice folks on different ends of opinions about shit that didn't really seem all that bad anyway.

>>255347553

I am literary playing it right now. 3 Rainmetals on my Ural rip through anything. That plus a +80% fire speed, two +40%'s

It's certainly possible but given her position I couldn't think of anyone better to handle it

>>255347672
while the battle system was fun the story literally went nowhere
well theres chopin and hes gone
well theres an evil king
now hes a dragon
now hes ripping holes in dimensions
and now chopin is plot twist

>>255347672
that games story was pretty fucking dumb, as most weeb shit tends to be

This along with most of the stuff that Amanita Design makes.

It's just a shame it takes years for them to make games that are never longer than 8 hours
