>>376734549

I've gone through Returns and Dragonfall. Hong Kong is said to be better than Returns, but doesn't reach to the heights of Dragonfall. Mulled over the purchase until I saw it for sale recently, I was going to start it up come the weekend.

I take it from your posts that the purchase will be well rewarded?

>>376735394

What would be a comparable title? The name and visuals give the impression of an old adventure comic serial, adventuring in foreign lands, uncovering ancient secrets and lost civilizations.

I got robbed by an NPC a couple times last time I gave it a go, but I suppose you mean the interactable sort, beyond killing them before they take your shit or kill you.
>>376742350
You're right, it's been in dev far, far too long. It's becoming clear it's one of those, "never going to be done" projects, even if they say it's finished, it'll just be the sign they're giving up on doing anything else, rather than it actually being complete.

>>376743116
Last time i checked it out i didn't even find any hostile npcs, but yeah i mean being able to recruit them and start a survivor's colony.

>>376743116
>>376742546
The game files already have NPC resonses. It probably won't be something amazing like trading posts, camps and factions. In the files you can see that it'll be friendly/neutral/agressive(or just violent ally not an enemy?) behaviour with the ability to make a party and give simple orders.

>>376743489

I could be wrong, but I don't think the hostile NPCs are a normal part of the world population. I think they're an event that sometimes spawns while you're in a house/safe location. It's only happened twice, and both times were in areas I'd well cleared out.

In the second case I heard shots outside in the middle of the night, and shortly after a pounding at the front door even though I'd locked things down and shut off the lights - so there was no reason it would be a zombie. So I went to the living room, and readied my weapon, he knocked open the door and came in with a shotgun. My character went down fast.

It IS pretty barebones. If you don't enjoy the basic gameplay of "pick vehicle, slap two guns and one special on it, kill lots of dudes", there's nothing much more it has to offer you (apart from kickass soundtrack which you might as well listen to separately).

Personally, between 40 guns (which actually feel very different) and who knows how many mechs, tanks and agravs you can strap them to there's just a ton of replayability. It just appeals to me on the most basic level - I love the combat, I love the visuals, I love seeing yellow coats scatter as I stomp through a high-rise on my oversized mech. It's a cool game.

>>376733130
This game is the best.

>>376734057
Eh.

>>376743573
>>376745129
reveal to me these secrets

>>376743909
You must be talking about the demo version, the guy with a shotgun is a scripted event. The regular game has no NPCs right now, but it has a lot of random sounds of people screaming which attracts zombies. Those screams catch me off guard every time, and it doesn't help that they sound too real.

>>376745424

Dragonfall is great, Hong Kong isn't as great but is still definitely worth your time.

Returns is pretty much a crash course on the setting and how everything works. If you're already familiar with the Shadowrun universe, you probably won't get much out of it unless you really want to see what Seattle looks like in video game form.

FFTA is fine if you don't mind being an objectively evil protagonist whose goal is to destroy a world full of living beings for the sake of sending people back to a shithole against their will that nobody even liked in the first place. The laws aren't too obtrusive and when they start stacking laws to be a pain you also start gaining ways to change them to your advantage.

>>376759315
What mods? I see you have stuff like farms being huge, Japanese city actually having Japanese signs etc. What else?

Would Stellite Reign count as isometric?

>>376759661

http://www.as-st.com/ttd/japan/

>>376759573
It's not fine, evil or good isn't the problem. It's that they wasted a change to seriously return to the Ivalice setting, and explore more of the conflicts and politics of the land, and instead wasted it on complete and utter nonsense - something they did again with FFTA2. They abandoned the feel and essence of a setting, and abandoned all the possibilities the factions, characters and history already available provided, and, on top of that, they refused to further build upon that rich basis with new and rich possibilities.

What an utter waste.

They had no right even being called the same name, they had nothing to do with what FFT represented.

Also you forgot probably my favorite Corvid vehicle, Sweetheart. Heavy mount on a very fast chassis, shit shield but huge overshield so it's okay as long as you keep running and killing.

isometrics looks like fucking shit

>>376770834
It's pretty much nothing like either of those games. There's not loot or character progression. The strongest vehicles are also the cheapest ones.

>>376770961
So it's basically Diablo 1

>>376731596
What does it add?

>>376771002
Diablo 1 had both of those. Loot was very important in that game. Gotta get that King's Sword of Haste and Godly Plate of the Whale.

>>376734057
Dragonfall and Honk Kong are really good.

>>376740430
The writing in Hong Kong isn't as good as in Dragonfall, but the game is still quite good if you enjoyed the other two.

>Sui Generis/Exanima
thanks, but THIS IS NOT ISO. it's FCUKIN 3D.

>>376771359
You really couldn't tell it form the image?

>>376771460
not really... it could've been fixed 3d...

What else you got up your arsehole???

All the Steam reviews for it say "It's not the Syndicate I wanted". Setting that aside -- is it a fun game?

>>376773129
This game was nice, but gods, the camera was fucking shit

I think the opposite. For me it is the Syndicate I always wanted and more. I think it surpasses the original Syndicate games in every possible way except for story/lore.

Expeditions Viking wasn't bad.

>>376774754
Had a really bad first night with her, going to wait a couple months for the bugs and bumps to be ironed out.

Amazing game. Beat the first game with a friend but the second game was just too overwhelming, never even made it to the moon.

Trap Gunner!

Why has no current indie team tackled this concept?
