Why this game sucks ass.

1. Leon is a faggot in this game. He is badass in Resident Evil 4 but in this game he is like 14 years old.

2. Backtracking. The entire game takes place in a very small area you will be running back and forth a thousand times over trying to figure out what to do or what door you can now access. There will be times where you will be running around for 20 minutes trying to figure out what to do. Most game devs have progressed beyond this retarded game design but they wanted this game to suck ass like the original so they kept this feature in.

3. Very limited ammo. You have to run past 3/4 of the enemies in this game because there is almost no ammo. This wouldn’t be a problem however the annoying part is you will be running past these same enemies over and over again trying to figure out wtf you are supposed to do to progress the game. You would think that they would at least make the enemies less difficult given the fact extreme lack of ammo but no the game will throw hoards of difficult enemies at you and you can not kill even 1/2 of them without completely running out of ammo. Also you are literally in a fucking police station so you’d think there would be more then ten bullets laying around. The average American probably has more bullets in his house than the entire RPD which has a Swat team.

The idea of a gun that fires self-propelled rounds being a common weapon is shockingly realistic. There are plenty of real world examples of guns that meet that description well. Gyrojet guns, recoil less guns, and milkor variants have been proven to fire self-propelled bullets. Some have even been used in small instances in war. Hell, the us army at once banned a proposed bolter-like patent over the weapon’s potential lethality.

Bolt guns are special in the sense that they really aren’t fictional. These weapons are just a look into what weapons could look like in the near future, which only makes me appreciate what we have in the present so much more.

oh you game? name every game in this .webm

Hard mode: no GTA games
<specially GTA V where you're more likely to just end up fighting 12 year old in oppressor bikes

right now i'm playing:

>XCOM
<you fight corporate cops there's nothing more cool than cornering them into cover at the end and blasting their asses with all my modded guns

>Red Dead Redemption
<Literal illegalist-pilled game every heist mission is such a thrill even if they start a bit slow

>PAYDAY 2
<old game with mods i love making blursed weapons and blasting cops with them then making them surrender and executing them anyway

The most masterpiece BASED communist game ever made right here.

GTA 6 will be complete garbage just like every other gta game. How does rockstar keep getting away with selling you losers the same product over and over again? You're nothing but mindless consumers who literally buy anything as long as its hyped. There is no good taste to be found anywhere near you, you're casual bad taste havers that continue to aid the downfall of gaming. We need more real gamers such as myself with great taste such as myself that won't support trash like this.

However, the DLC is so fucking brutal man. I’m playing it on the highest difficulty and the average level takes like 45 minutes plus to complete. The reason isn’t even because the game is genuinely hard; the problem exists because of the enemy spam.

Don’t take the DLC the wrong way. The level design is solid, the scenery both communicates a sense of scale and the player’s destination, the normal spawn points are well placed, the new weapons are fun to use, the enemy types are cool, and the difficulty feels appropriate for a DLC in most sections. However, the game is the FPS equivalent to dark souls 2.

Some enemy spawns are completely cheap and are meant to kill the player randomly. The purge levels take ages to complete given the enemy spam and how many waves the player has to fight through. Most fights are multi fights that leave little room for cover. Finally, the set design is discontinuous, which causes the same staggering feeling you’d get when transitioning between levels in dark souls 2. It’s so fucking brutal, dream-like, and long in areas where it shouldn’t be. I’ve had to spend almost an hour shooting from the same dumbass spot or running around for dozens of minutes just to get through some levels. I’m glad the devs learned a lot about level design from the first game, but it’s a shame that they didn’t realize that more enemies != harder and more fun game.

Suprisingly more fun than half life 2 when it’s working.

You guys have to check out terraforged + distant horizons man. This shit is so cozy.

This weapon represents what all post apocalyptic games should be about, decay. The survivalist rifle isn’t a bad weapon, it isn’t a unique weapon either. Rather, the rifle is a useful tool that’s been battered by the degradation of the society that made it. This idea of decay should have been present everywhere in fallout. Fallout feels too ‘clean.’ Even in the originals, there was a pervasive feeling that the world was comically ruined while all the technology that was left behind is in a comically useful state. The inverse should be true.

Yes the world of fallout (especially 4) is broken down, but the games really don’t capture what being broken down looks like. The ruins of settlements and logistics infrastructure should litter every meter of ground. Weapons should be advanced but always in a near broken state. Makeshift weapons and equipment should be rare given how much wealth was left behind by the humans of the old world.

I think the capital in fallout 3 got this feeling right the most. The city creates the same feeling as walking through post war Aleppo. The capital gets all these ideas right. It’s urban, but ruins, trash, and corpses litter everything in your sight; weapons are advanced but most of them are breaking down; and there’s always a pervasive feeling that you’re exploring a once great civilization no matter what part of the capital you’re in. You never get that feeling of stagnation and despair when exploring through the slums of the stadium, the villages of the first two games, or even in any of the clips of the Fallout TV show. I don’t think any other post apocalyptic game got that feeling right…
