    Metroid Prime 4:Beyond

    cringe npc dialogue. shitty new suit design. Always so awful. always end up going to back to the original/varia/gravity suits... these organic/sleek ones are just total garbage. Samus not talking is even MORE out of place in this shit... I don't want her to talk.. but this is dumb..

    Ready or Not: Here I Come (2026)

    I think the first one is mediocre. its not GREAT. it has its moments, but too many flaws to let it be great. its not as good as, ""you're next". can't find the original thread. odd. edit:found it. https://www.firesofheaven.org/threads/ready-or-not-2019.11080/ ha. while I did have...

    For the record, while its a fun idea. that Eye of newt, was a mustard seed is completely made up. some guy in 1986 apparently made it up. there is ZERO evidence of mustard seed being called that anywhere in history. "Eye of newt" as an ingredient exists solely in MacBeth.

    Hogwarts Legacy

    Its on gamepass as well. probably worth about 9$ I thought I commented on this. was it elsewhere? the gamepass thread probably. it starts off well. but, loses its way big time. I got bored around 20 hours, and just stopped with no interest to go on. Major flaws: open world slop...

    Metroid Prime 4:Beyond

    yeah, the emi sections are like babies for horror game. despite decades of horror games, they didn't learn anything from their designs. terrifying monster chasing you down a hall, that you must run from . check. great. problem? is it just a straight hall? if it is. thats boring. ok, so...

    Metroid Prime 4:Beyond

    see the dread thread on my thoughts on dread. I don't like it. Major problems. Story/characters is a disaster. horrible writing. no business being in a metroid game at all. more of devs adding more and more characters and talking into metroid. general gameplay is ok. emi sections are a...

    Metroid Prime 4:Beyond

    its a few things. One, nintendo has no idea why Metroid was liked. We've seen this time and time again with worse and worse new metroids with horrible ideas. Two, Metroid sales have never been great. so, as much as we do want them to go back to the good stuff.. Finding success will...

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    Japanese games often have some weird design shit in them. no pause, having to got to the title screen to exit the game. terrible u.i. all around.

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    Warsails is out. and patch 1.3.5 1.3.5 actually added a good deal more even past that 1.3.0 beta. (scroll down to see 1.3.4, 1.3.3, 1.3.2, and 1.3.1 to see all of it.) https://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php?threads/patch-notes-v1-3-4-1-3-5.467709/ Warsails ITSELF... eh.. I asked for...

    Earl in Space

    best one by far! only did a few. but some great ideas and mechanics in this one. the controls almost seem to be intended to fuck with you. like the wall grabs slowing you down, etc. but in a good way.

    Black Geyser RPG (BG1/2 homage)

    I have it. played about half of act 2 iirc, before getting distracted with other games. character creation was a bit odd. unclear what some of the stats do. even looking at guides by mortismal, it was still unclear. iirc, party acquisition is weird too. like, companions match exp/lvl at...

    The Legend of Vox Machina

    ha. yeah. I was going to mention. s3 was Taliesin back to being an annoying douche. I also never did finish that one. Ashley however found her spirit animal with Fearne. exact opposite of the barbarian.

    The Legend of Vox Machina

    yeah, beau/marisha was even more insufferable then Keyleth. caleb/nott/fjord/jester were fine. Mollymauk was Taliesin being douche. cad is a million times better. revolving the campaign around molly was a bit lame. ashley had no idea how to RP her own character. aasimar barbarian...

    The Expanse: Osiris Reborn by Owlcat Games

    yeah, Idk on this. The expanse is a tired franchise, that I for one, don't really care to see more of. The tv show was enough. and this isn't even the book stuff that comes later, its a side story mid season2 iirc. no space magic. I like space magic in my sci fi. Mass effect was popular...

    The Legend of Vox Machina

    not exactly that. but for Matt and the team to SELL Exandria, they needed it to be unique. they couldn't sell it as a product while using the dnd names. hell, wotc did end up just collabing and selling exandria stuff. and yes, Vecna was in s1. The game STARTED in pathfinder. sessions...

    What are you playing?

    yeah, I watched mortismals dq 1/2 remake vid. And I find the story changes to dq 1-3 unforgivable. I won't touch them. dq 1 by modern standards is odd yeah. its more a kin to a puzzle game, then an RPG as we consider them these days.

    Predator: Badlands

    the comments in this vid bring up something that efap and all the others seem to have overlooked thats pretty huge. Predators see in infrared/thermal vision. this movie completely ignores that despite focusing on the pov of a predator. This would be a major factor in dealing with...

    Pluribus

    to be fair. the constant guessing with Lost is probably because there were no answers. if it was competent, and there were proper foreshadowing, and clues. people would have figured it out by going over it with a fine toothed comb. the result of high def, and the ability to watch and rewatch...

    Metroid Prime 4:Beyond

    Motor cycle is lame too as I stated. Samus super speed should be like Genos from Ono punch man. or Metal knight. alternative. the motor cycle appears to use Samus's suit tech. it looks like the morph ball. that's lame as shit. if the Motorcycle was based on her spaceship tech, and was...

    dead on arrival. "OH MY SCIENCE! did you just use your freaking mind to move that boulder!?" "theres a metroid right behind me, isn't there?!" motor cycle also looks lame. no idea why people though that looked good in the preview. she has fast travel built into the suit in older games...

    Kenshi - A Sandbox RPG

    Base size will vary as you want. You can just empty it out, when exploring. or, have a skeleton crew, and just have them run and hide, if the base is attacked while the fighting force is away. then there is also a point, where gear and skill lets your forces defend themselves against most...

    Ball x pit

    Its almost like I elaborated in my post, and you guys didn't actually read it all. The game sits in a weird middle ground. most of these games upgrades are pure upgrades. this one has a few potential items, and fusions that can result in breaking your setup. but its rare. its just a couple...

    Ball x pit

    auto attack, while you control movement, advancing horde. drops exp gems. gold. uses the same rng powerup system.. My criticisms for it are its not enough like breakout/arkanoid. not enough emphasis on catching/bouncing balls back. getting balls stuck on the top is actually often bad...

    to be fair, everyone takes what should be fatal hits and just gets back up. I was on the, "roberts a robot/cyborg" train too. but yeah, everyone seems to shrug off fatal wounds.

    ha nice. Yeah, I suppose I never posted about 1.0 releasing. I don't think it ever quite came around to be the game I hoped it would be. But the dev did keep at it, updating and improving it. it is still one of the better terraria clones. corekeeper, etc. I have not actually played the...

    There are a bunch of movies about some supernatural predator stalking Axis and ally troops. Vampires, werewolves, witches, succubi. yeah, sure its a solid concept. but, the idea that the feminist Predator director would be able to make such a movie and not have it be pure Reddit bait is...

    That tends to be the problem with Roguelite mechanics. finding the right balance of giving upgrades, while not trivializing the content. The card battlers like Slay the spire/monster train tend to work better. as they give more cards, which can be more power.. but it also increases RNG...
