After 2 play throughs the cutscenes become a slog. You already know what happens. So you skip the cutscenes because at this point they are boring. This game often feels more like a movie than a game at times. They put so much time money and effort into all the cutscenes. Imagine if they instead used that for gameplay. I think I prefer DOS2 which felt more like an actual game than a movie and had more enjoyable gameplay. Another problem with BG3 is the lack of randomness. Every play through basically feels the same. The combat is always the same enemies every time. There is no interesting aspect of randomness to increase replay ability. Baldurs Gate 3 is only good for 2 or maybe 3 play throughs. Then it just becomes a game you only play once every several years. Baldurs Gate 3 would have been better if it had random loot and random enemies as well as less linearity. They should have also just ditched the endless Mass Effect cutscenes and instead put all that budget and energy into improving the actual gameplay.

I get that they push the “logistical constraints warp thing” hard, but the entire premise of this episode is stupid. The guard is on a hive world that is clearly not abandoned as much as it is under siege. Those are like the one places where running out of bullets and guns just shouldn’t be possible given the sheer production rates. You cannot even give the “the munitions aren’t the right kind” excuse either given that autoguns exist and are used pretty regularly in the books for emergencies like this. Finally, the soldiers there are literally right next to a hive city. Literally everyone in the first five minutes should be strapped head to toes in weapons given how easy it is to find the gear. Coincidentally, the soldiers could also just take refuge there instead of losing even more soldiers pointlessly to orks—like fuck the authors explicitly go out of their way to clarify that the guard isn’t the Soviet-propaganda stereotype of an army throwing meat waves at technologically superior opponents. This episode pissed me off so badly man

Borderlands 4 is going to be great just for that. I wasn’t able to tell if the game was good, but if they were able to implement that feature this early, it means that the game was polished.

The Nintendo Switch™ 2 version will cost full price with no upgrade path for Nintendo Switch™1 owners. The game will require a full download as there is no data on the cartridge.

Fun fact: the guys that made this game worked on horizon zero fucking dawn. That game is a masterclass in AI and expansive environments, and the devs just completely mess this game up in those departments exceptionally badly.

Seriously, it’s worth looking into how bad the movement, AI, and bugs are in this game because the people that developed this are the same people who are working on Sony’s next big titles. Remember the colossal failure that was concord? People hated it for being “woke” and generic. I hated it because it was poorly put together in general. You know what’s worse.

More bad games by Sony and its developers are set to come and one of them could be the last of us part 3.

What the fuck is going on with Sony? Why the fuck are they putting out so many bad games and why are their developers fucking up games with potential like this one?

ahh, skyrim oblivion, it has came back new with newer glitches
some things just never die

Very late to the party, I know, but I just finished the game over the course of last two days. Never played any David Cage game, saw streamers playing most of them though. They seemed hilariously bad, like The Room of video games.

The premise of the game is basically "what if racism was real?". The entire game is extremely clique, with social commentary so heavy-handed it borders on parody, and crige inducing sense of self-importance.

Gameplay wise, its a glorified visual novel, but filled with quick time events for even the most mundane of task, such as sitting on a chair. You have dialogue choices that are described to you in a single vague word (Sincere, Regretful, Determined, etc.), so good luck guessing what you character is going to actually say.

The impressive thing about the game is sheer amount of potential story branches. Like I cant even find list of all the final endings, because they are combinations of various intertwined outcomes for each of the main characters, resulting together in dozens of distinct endings you can get.
Speaking of which, there are three main characters, two of them actually relevant to overarching plot of the game. One is putting together a revolution to liberate androids, while an autistic detective investigates why androids are going haywire. The third one might not actually be of any importance, but she does have one of the tensest segments I ever experienced in a video game, when you end up as a prisoner in a death camp, waiting in a line for a robot gas chamber. Certainly memorable, but personally I feel way to heavy for (unintentionally) rather silly game.

Anyway, on my playthough I went for violent revolution, wasting every human I could for shit and giggles. If I was playing seriously, as in doing what I personally think is moraly right and effective as if IRL, I would pick peaceful protest actually. In this world andoids are fully integrated into society, everybody own one, and they all act and look like people. Children are raised by androids, androids serve as companions to humans, it just seems unrealistic for there to be a widespread public opposition to android liberation. They are too human-like, humans would recognize them as people even if they actually were glorified toasters. I kept thinking how much more interesting the setting would be if the android did actually look and behave like machines. Sentient ones, acquiring their own will and desiring freedom, buPost too long. Click here to view the full text.
