Destiny 2 really came and went, huh?

One would argue the first one never really arrived...

[Friendly Foil]

 

I beat the final boss in Dark Souls 2 and this is a very good game.

Weakest of the series imo.

Only one I've played (for realsies) besides Bloodborne. Hella worth it imo. Good vidja.

[Squee]

I just bought the Super NT for no fucking reason. I'm an idiot.

I really disliked DS2, but It's only bad in comparison to the first one. I reckon if you haven't played DS1 first and come with no expectations it's pretty good

[juiceciuj]

this game is still fuckin' fun

That is pretty crazy Squee, but I bet it felt good.

I did. But I had to buy a wireless SNES controller separately and with shipping it ended up costing $60...

[Silent Member]

I bought a nespi case with some knock off SNES controllers for my raspberry a couple of weeks back, but that's about how crazy I am going to get with my retro gaming.

really strange to me how you could love DS1 and hate DS2. i mean, they arent that fundementally different, even if 2 is the weaker game.

I jumped straight into DS2, never played the first.

 

I actually didn't like it, found the battle mechanics repetitive and a little dull. Also didn't find it very rewarding, a little grindy (ironic yes since I play stuff like destiny or diablo etc).

 

Someone suggested Bloodborne was better I just haven't gotten around to it.

bloodborne is much better, but much harder. the atmosphere in that game is second to none.

I felt BB was a pretty good entry point into the series. Healing is faster and movement is snappier, which makes it a lot easier to get into. DS2 is undeniably clunky, even if that's the point (with a heavy armor/shield/melee build at least...)

[Ivan Ooze]

i'm still so hooked on cod ww2, that i hardly touched the new dragon ball z fighter (wich is delicious)

it's so much fun and addictive like black ops wuz. it's with lootboxes but you can earn everything without paying a penny and when the dlc drops you get the new weapons and a new soldier class without having to buy the dlc :), they did a great job imo.

It's on my list of games to play for sure!

 

Stuck in persona 5 for now, been a while since i've played a good ole' JRPG. 

[Frank Poole]

I guess I'll buy Shadow of the Colossus for a third time.

3 hours into subnautica, highly recommended. looks great, taps into my mild fear of being stuck in the open ocean, my love for sci-fi, and ambiguous yet engaging story lines.

2 was the last one i played, I loved 1-3, and Bloodborne, but after playing all 3 of those  DS2: SotFS just felt like a steaming pile of shit, I didn't bother finishing, the difficulty felt artificially ramped by just having more enemies everywhere, and the combat just felt off compared to 1 and 3. I absolutely love 3 though and I'm looking forward to the remaster of 1 as I've only finished it once.

 

Enjoying the hell out of Monster Hunter World lately, but Bazelgeuse can fuck right off, that fucker pops up in high rank at the absolute worst times and just ruins everything.

Easily one of the best survival/exploration games out there, highly recommended

I wouldn't call DkS2 a steaming pile of shit but it was definitely the weakest entry in the series. My biggest gripe was the changes to combat, mainly the nerf to pivoting attacks. In every other Souls game (including BB), you can pivot attacks in any direction if they follow a roll/backstep. For example, I love dodging then following up with a light attack. The light attack after a dodge can be aimed (pivoted) in any direction (as long as you're unlocked from the target). This led to a lot of options for unlocked play and even created a lot of depth in PvP.

 

In Dks 2 however, you could only pivot ~45 degrees in each direction from where you're facing as opposed to the complete freedom to aim your attack in any direction offered by all of the other games in the series.

 

It really chapped my ass.

 

Edit: Dks 2 and 3 both allow the player to change the way they're facing while locked on. However, my point still stands.

I haven't read the rules lately, am I permitted to give out a redeem code here?  I would hate for it to go to waste.

[usagi]

maybe ask who wants it and then message them. also the rules should be read incessantly every day, every hour, ad infinitum.

Formula Fusion: EMLLJ-BP8DJ-YYK0W redeem on STEAM

 

https://www.formulafusiongame.com

 

Backstory.  This is a game from some of the the original Wipeout team and the shut down Studio Liverpool (modern Wipeout devs).  This is the "real" successor to Wipeout I suppose.  Designers Republic are also behind most, (if not all?) of the look and design.  Really good game, not perfect.  Not a surprise that there a some minor issues considering the size of the team and the lack of a publisher.  Just redeem it on Steam, "games" tab, "activate product on steam"

 

Please reply verifying you got it.  

 

bye.

I think this will work, as long as the bottom of the message isn't missed.  I have the rules refreshed and read to me through text to speech every hour, starting now.

Feel like I should play one of the other games I've been accumulating from PS+ but keep going back to MGS Phantom Pain. Those skulls are a bunch of cunts!

 

Also been playing a bit of Sky Force Anniversary. Used to love a similar game years ago so it's a true trip down memory lane.

Big fan of Sky Force as well, and I hear you about the PS+ games - Rime just came out (had been wanting to try it when it was released and never got around to it), and I haven't even found the time to download it yet!
