Nintendo can drop glitchy bangers and get them into more hands because they focus on being fun . Neil banned the word fun . Part 1 with mods will be fun

Nintendo always gonna be the GOAT

Nintendo like “ oh they dropping a serious game where every enemy you kill screams. , gurgles and someone says their name “ let’s drop another glitchy banger

Like the name thing although cool like once lol it makes you think is there somewhere more they are going to go with this. Like hotline Miami style or splinter cell. If certain npcs had radically different patterns , attributes , weapons , likes in contained environments like hitman or something then I get it .

But I hope someone wasn’t crunching for that , the under used rope or something else. Animations smooth though , sound , graphics too . Just feels missing something for me to call it best all time. Like a major gameplay feature or risk. ( I acknowledge the story ones )

Mans mad that Sony puts out mature games that immerse you with their story and realistic gameplay instead of putting out the same 3D platformer just with a different title every year

kh2 and mgsv of their gameplay loops alone

i sunk so much hours into those games

i also think mgsv story is underrated

the way reviewing games works never really benefitted open world games. i think the narrative elements weren’t necessarily groundbreaking, but incredibly well executed.

while i will agree the game was rushed, i think bc the engine is so fun to play in, and kojima studios are just brilliant folk, they were able to navigate it well.

it kinda plays a lot like cyberpunk where u get this tech demo ass intro and then launched into an open world. i think both games u can tell wanted to be more narrative, but i don’t think they were able to achieve what they wanted to.

saying all that to say i think mgs v doesn’t have the ideal story, but they were able to creatively make up for it with incredible, well performed, well written tapes that helped flesh out the story. i wish there was more cutscenes, but it’s hard not to feel like it’s a design choice to allow for a more open world game + respond to mgs4 criticism

kh2 is always gonna be best combat system for me

half of it is nostalgia. i’ve tried to get into souls games multiple times, but they don’t grab me. one of my friends is deeeepp into the games and he says it’s honestly p pointless as an adult to get into them

i already have a hard time with giving time and attention to games these days

something about kh2 has the perfect mix of easy to pick up, hard to master, and i thoroughly enjoy being able to pick it up and play boss fights that i love

theres objectively better combat systems, but kh2 just has that special place in my heart from months spent studying speed runs to the music to that beautiful melancholic intro section

This is a TLOU2 thread

Bugsnax is better

I’m not mad at it I’m saying to some it’s not everything. Definitely can’t say they carried covid years. I didn’t even play animal crossing

Also some like “ realistic gameplay “ and some want design ie hitman . All have value . Story didn’t grip me personally cause I don’t care about Joel or Ellie as much as some

Not realistic

I need to fully dive into MGSV after death stranding

Big facts

I highkey feel like Neil is going to incorporate this in to TLOU 3 somehow

He could easily just say that the cordyceps has evolved again and now the infected all developed a hive mind

Retcon hours . I mean if they make a mechanic to step over it I’m all for it

You’re to trigger happy to use the word retcon now a days

It’s a cool add for show but dumb for a game where you have less control on where you step besides trip mine level

Finished replaying this last night and I dig it more this playthrough. When you cut to Abby in the beginning though it drags for me until you meet Lev and Yara.

Need the PC announcement asap

you replay on new game plus and up the difficulty?

I just upped the difficulty to hard wasn’t too bad

He's cooking, except for the part about Spiderman 2

Feel bad for anyone where tlou2 ruined gaming for them

Nothing has topped it since I’m afraid

TLou2 is literally a technical masterpiece, the polish and attention to detail is insane so even just on that front I can understand why someone would feel that way

If Zelda and Spider-Man ( 0 gameplay ) the only games he cares about this year he just has bad taste
