    If I want my tactical missions to consist of ball-busting tedium, I'll fire Xenonauts back up. Or if I'm feeling super masochistic, Terror From the Deep. That being said I have three different actor/survivor agents so tactical missions are trivially easy, just time consuming while I track down...

    The fuck he does. He dismissed it by saying 'oh i was just being edgy/a provocateur'.

    I wasn't such a homer for XCom-alikes, I don't think I'd like this game very much. The geoscape, pin-board file mini-game, and base management in general are fine, tactical missions fucking suck. I can sort of understand that they didn't want to go with the traditional 'being in cover makes you...

    Hmm, I stand corrected I guess. Still seems better to not have wasted crystals on Omega Drive in the first place though! I'm perfectly satisfied with bsb2, usb2, glint, and lmr.

    You need proficiency with a weapon to mod it. As for the geoscape I always send my dudes in teams of two so they can immediately start a counter-op if necessary. One very important thing I didn't realize at first is that you don't actually have babysit an informer, the timer will keep ticking...

    Yeah I suppose the campaign duration largely depends on how much time you spend fucking around on the geoscape vs aggressively pursuing the story.

    'Actor' is an incredibly useful perk (only seen it available once so far) that makes it so agents can't see through your disguise. By 'incredibly useful' I basically mean 'almost as broken as abilities that let you maintain/re-enter concealment in XCom 2'. Combine it with the +hp perk and you...

    So how do you 'acquire equipment'? Just did the second CIA story mission and it said 0/3 classified documents (i know what those look like but I didnt see any) and 0/5 equipment, and I didn't see anything that looked like lootable equipment. Tried standing over some taken down baddies and nothing.

    I was looking for a place to vent about having caught the dude who knocked up my mom drinking and driving for the FOURTH time the other night, guess I found it.

    Battletech

    Battletech is a lot like Shadowrun Returns. Solid framework behind a mediocre game but with a lot of potential after another iteration or two.

    Witcher 3

    I realize the name of the game is Witcher and it's Geralt's story, but I really wish we'd spent more time with Ciri, or maybe given her a DLC or something.

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    Or they'll retcon it so that Chiss don't have genders in the first place, and the only reason xhe let everyone call xhim Sir is because xhe didn't want to explode their tiny little transphobic minds.

    He's already canonically a dude, so that would be a bit over the top even for the KKK.

    If he was moving that fast all of his clothes would tear themselves apart/catch on fire. Just imagine that superheroes project a small biokinetic field that allows them to pick up cars instead of just ripping the bumper off, or lets their walkman work normally when they're dilating time.

    Meh. GotG was a dramatic comedy while GotG2 was damn near slapstick, like Ace Ventura 4: Ace in Space. It's one thing to undercut tension with humor to keep things light and it's another thing entirely to gut every single serious scene in a movie and fill it with forced humor. GotG2 is to GotG 1...

    Our discord raid group has an opening for a 4th member. Two conditions A: You *have* to bring wall, that is non-negotiable. Tyro USB3 optimal, especially with his LMR, but we can make a different wall work if necessary. B: You have to be ready to go when the raid opens with your team already...

    Batman: Arkham Knight

    Finished playing through Origins again, I remembered all of it so I guess the achievements were bugged the first time I played through. Uninstalled as soon as I finished, really didn't care to grind the extras. My main problem with Origins is that it's largely just Arkham City again, and I...

    Once Mother Talzin got rid of those dumbass junk legs, the Maul/Savage story arc was actually pretty good, especially the way it ended with big daddy reminding him just exactly who is top dog. I haven't seen Solo yet (nor do I plan to), but Maul being in it seems just one more dumbass thing...

    I won't argue with people who place Origins above Knight, lots of shit to pick apart with both games. Origins above Asylum?

    Batman: Arkham Knight

    I hardly even remember Origins and according to Steam I only have 5 achievements for it which suggests that I uninstalled it pretty early on, but the last achievement I unlocked was for defeating the Joker which seems like it would be near the end. Suppose I should give it another try.
