Big RDR2 Order Came Today
StaceyPowers reacted to The Blackangel for a topic
I ordered a bundle on the RDR2 website, and it came today. The bundle included RDR2 Ultimate Edition, a steel book, dynamite shaped candle, T-shirt, and the main reason I wanted it was an RDR2 Zippo. I already have the Ultimate Edition and steel book, so this is an extra. The T-shirt I got a small, because they didn't have any shirt designs in my size. So I got the design I liked the best in a small so I can tack it up on my wall. I'm happy it finally came. I ordered it somewhere around a week ago I think, so the shipping is lightning fast, all things considered. here's a couple pics.1 point -
What is the equivalent of “normal” difficulty in TLOU 2?
StaceyPowers reacted to Reality vs Adventure for a topic
I don't remember, but moderate is what I think I played. I always play as moderate or normal. But my next play through I'm gonna put it on the toughest one. And I've tried it on the hardest one replaying an encounter and it's really difficult. I get whooped all over the place.1 point -
Any tips for first playthrough of TLOU 2?
StaceyPowers reacted to Reality vs Adventure for a topic
I wouldn't stress it too much because the game has the feature where you can replay any chapter and/or any encounter. It automatically saves it. Always make sure you have a manual save before repeating any chapter/encounter because its autosave feature could make you lose progress. But as long as you got manual saves, it's all good. Just play as you did in the first one and look around for survivalist magazines for your abilities as well as collectibles and ammo. It's got a photo mode so don't forget about that.1 point -

Video game ideas that were good in theory, but suffered in execution?
Family sedan reacted to killamch89 for a topic
You're right especially when the vehicle in question is supposed to be realistic replica of it's real life counterpart. It should have the same handling as well.1 point -
Craigslist Stupidity
Withywarlock reacted to killamch89 for a topic
I mean, it's not as uncommon as you'd think. There are sites that facilitate this kind of transaction such as playerup.com but they go through an extreme vetting process so either side of the transaction is legit and nobody gets scammed. It's not entirely fool-proof because some people try to talk to the other party outside of the site and end up getting scammed and try to blame playerup for it when all convos should be kept on-site.1 point -
What video game did you most have to challenge yourself to play?
Withywarlock reacted to m76 for a topic
Believe it or not playing Mass Effect has taken a lot of convincing from others. On my first try I dismissed it as a drag with terrible inventory, and clunky shooting, halfway through the first Citadel segment right after Eden Prime.1 point -

Car 🚙 control is very important in racing games because it's what racing is all about. Once it's impeded, it makes it one horrible task.1 point -
Why is it that games usually come out on Tuesdays?
Withywarlock reacted to Crazycrab for a topic
It's actually quite simple. It's partly for chart rankings (as you mentioned) plus they need to avoid the release date dropping on Bank Holidays or weekends when the Stock Market's are closed.1 point -
Cover art is boring these days
Family sedan reacted to killamch89 for a topic
I agree completely. In addition to that, character customization is pretty limited in modern games as well. I like games that allow me the freedom to create the character I want with no restrictions.1 point -
Cover art is boring these days
Withywarlock reacted to The Blackangel for a topic
Covers are incredibly boring. It turns me off on a lot of games. My typical logic thinking is that if they put so little effort in making an attractive cover, then what is to make me think the game will be any better? Or even good for that matter. Back in the early days, game covers were all artistic as hell. beautiful drawings. I mean look at these: Beautiful, right? Now look at this. Cover art has seriously gone down in quality.1 point -
Overrated games?
Withywarlock reacted to m76 for a topic
The Witcher III I think the gameplay is outright atrocious. The story might be OK, but I never could get deep into it as the main character is so antipathetic. GTA series I like GTA games, but I think they are seriously overrated and overhyped. The gameplay is good, and the open world is implemented well in them, but their characters and stories are boring and flat. Dragon Age Inquisition It dazzles people with the hinterlands so that people fail to notice the boring repetitive mmo-like nature of the rest of it. The only usable class in it are the ranged, as close combat fight is useless. You are just chasing enemies around and hitting air if you do a warrior, or rogue with daggers. Titanfall 2 It's mediocrity in all of it's being. Derivative, but fails to meet the standard of games it copies. A little bit of gears of war, a little bit of mirror's edge, a little bit of mechwarrior, but nothing is fleshed out, it all clashes and cancels each other out instead of complementing each other. And the story is so clichéd it hurt my brain. Hellblade : Senua's sacrifice It was an interesting idea but the end result is a sluggish, dragged out and slow game, despite being only 6-7 hours long. The combat is awkward, repetitive. The rest is just a walking simulator with lots of backtracking. And you can take walking literally here because running in this game feels slower than the walk speed in other games. Doom 2016 It's fun for a moment, but everything looks like plastic in it, the graphics design is awful, and there is nothing to keep me playing. The level design is not that brilliant that it would be enough alone like in the original Doom, and the story is just an excuse, not a reason to play the game. I quickly lost interest in it, and never actually finished it. (and I assume eternal is more of the same) Dragon Age: Origins I actually prefer Dragon Age II, sue me. I think this game is very repetitive, all encounters feel the same, and playing the same goddamn ambush for the 1000th time gets old very quickly. The result of encounters is more luck based than skill. The story is completely overshadowed by the clunky mechanics and awkward dialogues.1 point
