StaceyPowers Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 What are the most satisfying abilities/weapons in any games, just in terms of the pure joy you experience using them? For me, I think my number one favorite is Murder of Crows in BioShock Infinite. There is just something about sending a flurry of squawking, savage birds to literally tear apart one’s enemies that just never gets old. The bees in the first two games were similar, but somehow not as exciting to watch/listen to. In Skyrim, I really love Storm Call. I love that the lightning strikes multiple foes simultaneously. It really gives you a feeling of godlike power. I can’t for the life of me remember when or how I got it though. I think maybe it was near the end of the main quest line. What to you are the most satisfying abilities to use in video games? @DylanC @Executor Akamia @killamch89 @kingpotato @Alyxx @skyfire @The Blackangel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Executor Akamia Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Synthetic ascension in Stellaris is one of my favorite things in any strategy game, ever, especially if a given playthrough has been particularly rough on me. Not only does the main species (who starts the game organic) become robotic, your empire gains a significant boost to production, planet habitability becomes practically a non-issue to the point that you can even take over machine worlds from midgame Machine Intelligence empires with no issues – though hive worlds from organic Hive Mind empires might still need to be terraformed – and you are no longer considered a target by Determined Exterminator-type Machine Intelligences, removing their total war casus belli against you and enabling diplomacy. That last bit in particular is something I aim to take advantage of during a playthrough one day; by vassalizing a Determined Exterminator as a synth empire, I can make them fight for me as defenders of the organics they so badly want to destroy whether they like it or not.

The Blackangel Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Obtaining Wall and obtaining Roof in Blaster Master. Those two abilities allow you to drive Sophia up the walls and upside down on the roofs of any level you are in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingpotato Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Slowing time in Max Payne, even if you are a normal guy this ability alone is so cool. Also Fus Ro Dah shout from Skyrim, while its not the coolest shout its the funniest one 😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alyxx Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I always loved the powers you have in Saints Row IV when fully upgraded. Game just turns into a sandbox of destruction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 The ability that I love is the Dragon Aspect Shout in Skyrim especially when you unlock the third word. It turns you into a Dragon God quite literally with a buff to every offensive and defensive stat. My only pet peeves are that it lasts 5 mins and can only be used once every 24 hrs.

skyfire Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Portals and Boomerangs along with some mage like ability. I find that definitely interesting. If you are playing mobile legends you may find faramis's ability pretty useful which revives dead player with 80% mana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Downthrust in Zelda 2 is one of the best abilities in any game. Upthrust isn’t bad, but downthrust is the superior one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
