By LFMartins86 Go To PostValkryria Chronicles 4 just announced, for PS4/X1/Switch.
https://youtu.be/LGL5EzrHm_U
announced for the fucking xbone and switch but not pc, despite the first one selling very well on steam (which I own it on)
sega are dumb as shit
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 got 9/9/8/9 [35/40] in Famitsu.
So you'll probably want to avoid it.
But then we all knew that just from the MC's design.

By Facism Go To PostRolling my eyes at the cat ear designs in that VC4 trailer.
The cat ears in ni no kuni 2 is also really ruining my hype for it.
That and the overview map battles... and apparently no familiars?
The more I think about it, the less I want ni no kuni 2. Which is sad.
By Dark PhaZe Go To PostBattlefront is kind of greatYa'll are making me want to pick the game up but I'm trying to hold on until I see what they ultimately decide to do with loot crates (cosmetics only, please).
Like, let's make a strategic game about a major war!

Oh and no PC port, when the game did amazing on Steam? Fuck outta here Sega.
By Facism Go To PostLike, let's make a strategic game about a major war!it's been like this since the first, what's your beef?

Im gonna pickup Tekken this week. Its gonna be rough 😥
By s y Go To PostPoor PhoenixRisingit's good but it's a very unrewarding game online, between the native lag and the online lag sometimes punishing unsafe moves or even finishing juggles can be a concern
Im gonna pickup Tekken this week. Its gonna be rough 😥
i'm even thinking of learning a new other character other than King cause sometimes i miss the running grab combo ender, been fiddling with Shaheem and Jack-7
By Lambda Go To Postit's good but it's a very unrewarding game online, between the native lag and the online lag sometimes punishing unsafe moves or even finishing juggles can be a concernI heard they announced that they were cutting down the lag on PS4 at the TWT Finals.
i'm even thinking of learning a new other character other than King cause sometimes i miss the running grab combo ender, been fiddling with Shaheem and Jack-7
Edit:
However, director Katsuhiro Harada is promising future improvements. During the Tekken Tour World Finals yesterday, Harada appeared on stage and spoke openly about the situation, saying that with the help of Sony and the team behind the Unreal Engine, he hopes to reduce the lag further. Apparently, the developer is working on getting a patch out before the end of 2017, so you can probably expect to hear more within the next few weeks.
By s y Go To PostPoor PhoenixRisingjust be a jack main

By Kibner Go To PostYa'll are making me want to pick the game up but I'm trying to hold on until I see what they ultimately decide to do with loot crates (cosmetics only, please).
It's pretty terrible, and strikes a really weird line between being pay to win or not but it seems intentionally created to make that line as blurry as possible. Basically, certain star cards (basically every weapon, mod, or perk ability) is obtained via loot crates, or you can craft them, but they are gated somewhat in terms of requiring a certain level to boost said cards. So there is work required to optimize certain gears, so its not instant pay to win, but there are also huge advantages obtained firmly through the RNG of loot crates.
Like, there's a star card I got that just straight up instant heals you. And one that makes me significantly tougher. I got it from an effing crate lol. But to maximize and boost the cards further it would require leveling. Or to equip 3 cards (you can only have one at min levels) you need to be a certain level as well.
One thing that's beyond certain--this was made in such a way as to be as predatory as possible. It's a shame because base gameplay is good and surprisingly (at least on PC) has a very strong skillgap. But you see shit like Darth Vader on the field with 3 star cards at a high level and you're like ...yea, that's some pay to win shit as he's shredding your entire team.

even the preorder bonus stuff is substantially better than those who don't have it. improved thermal detonators SHIT on the regular assault grenade. the epic level combat shield will let a heavy walk through sentry fire when it'd otherwise be suicide. there's a lot of little stuff i'm noticing as well.
the longer i play, the more i notice it. especially in starfighter assault or anything involving hero units
like seriously - vader won't die. i've seen teams coordinate bombing runs on him me on kassyhk lol. its awesome to watch, but yeah.
at the same time, the game is so fucking good.
I need to hop on MP that isn't Heroes vs Villains. It does give you a good overview of character abilities, but it's a bit jank atm.
Is BioShock 2 worth playing? I know it's a different studio.
I own Infinite but haven't gotten to it yet. That might be next for me but was curious about the second game.

Bioshock 2 and it's DLC are the best of the series.
The story in Bioshock 1 is better, but doing the magic powers without having to swap for weapons is great.

Sounds good. I'll probably pick it up while I'm out this week. It's only $5. Going to go on a BioShock run I guess.
I enjoyed--didn't love--the original, but the narrative definitely kept me interested throughout despite the mute lead, which I absolutely hate in games.

The Bioshock games would be better if they were walking simulators
@sy, the further removed we get from it, the more my response to its themes is 'so what?'
I might be forgetting more nuance, but from what i recall it's a pretty shallow exploration of agency and choice
Then again Levine tied himself in knots when he tried to explore something meaningful in Infinite, so maybe it's better when it's skin-deep

By Hitch Go To PostThe Bioshock games would be better if they were walking simulatorsThat intro to Bioshock 1 was definitely one of the "this is next gen" moments of last gen. Makes it terrible for replays though.
By s y Go To PostIn retrospect,the twist in in Bioshock 1 is kind of corny.
Shodan talking shit > Andrew Ryan
Yeah, the demo for the original BioShock was definitely one of the better examples of how to sell a single player game. That and maybe Arkham Asylum are the two best uses of demos to hype a new series last gen.
The biggest issue I had with BioShock was being forced to use the R2 button on the PS3 in combat. I can see how that wasn't so much of an issue on the 360 as the triggers are much better, but that really frustrated me that there was no swap option.

Speaking of trash --
I haven't commented on this as I took it for granted because its 2017, but the improvement of the wifi chip in the Pro over the OG PS4 is huge. I did a speed test to show a friend who was curious what I was getting, and it was around 60/7? The upload still isn't all that great but thank god modern wifi speed is available on such a device in 2017.

Too bad the BF deals are so shitty.
By Smokey Go To PostThe DS4 is the only decent dual shock, and that's facts.
They were all terrible.
I like the layout of the DS4, it's comfortable in the hands and all that good stuff. The rubber on the thumb sticks is trash though, had three pads over the years and the rubber has worn on all of them. The battery life is trash too.
My original DS4 from launch day had the rubber wear off within the first week of use too. Really soured me on it.
