System Wars Lounge v54: The So Many Games Edition

I'm not always a completionist either, but when I really like a game I try to see it all the way through... I just got wrecked by Ozma so many times it was ridiculous. I finally broke down and looked for advice online. I saw a lot of peeps saying that success in the fight was kind of random, so I just let it go.

It just sucks, it's one of those things that'll always be in the back of my mind haha.

In the other news. -_-

Killing Ozma was the only thing i needed to do to 100% FFIX back then.

I even managed to get all the cards (which you needed to lose any duplicates, having 1 of each) to complete the set.

Weabo powers: ACTIVATE!!!

@_Matt_ The nifty shirt in question :D

That's probably going to be better than Shit on Titan movie thing.

@Desmonic: That shirt just screams, "Hey look, I live in my mom's basement!" =P

LOL

@Desmonic: duuuuude I want that shirt! Gimme!

That is laughing.

Keep the GG related out of this thread guys and post that in the GG thread on the games discussion board.

may i ask why? and what constitutes "GG related"?

There's a GG thread that we are directing discussion to and gg related stuff mostly belongs in there.

but that's on a different board. Also what constitutes GG related?

Unless someone starts a full on Anita Sarkeesian debate, i'm not seeing what the problem is?

@Allicrombie: Hey, no rent >>>>>>>>>>>>> paying rent. GG :P

@_Matt_ Sorry dude, it fits :P Keeping it xD

I'm also not 100% sure if discussion of that image will break the no politics rule that's in the OP of this thread so I think it's safer to discuss that image in that thread. That's why I suggested to discuss it in that thread.You guys can discuss this stuff in this thread as long as it does not turn into a political debate.

@Desmonic: lol

I want to use the Wii U for off screen play while these college games are on but there's nothing compelling me right now.

Like Bayonetta is cool, but playing that with the Wii U gamepad is gross

Feminists. u_u

But but I like attack on titan, even with all the flaws. :'(

The author is a fucking pro-nazi jerk, not to mention the actual thing being gimmicky beyond reason.

@getyeryayasout: THEY PLAYED US LIKE A DAMN FIDDLE

Which one did you like more, the first or second?

Oh really huh? Well I don't give a ****. Its something that I find entertaining and no one can change my opinion about this show.

@Allicrombie: True story hehe :P

Fucking Pillars of Eternity, everything BioWare should strive their games to be.

Even my last year's GOTY: Divinity Original Sin, is surpassed by this game in nearly every way, aside from combat.

But how does it compare to BioWare games anyways?

Writing and Story,

• The lore treats you like an adult with the game expecting you to read between the lines.
• Doesnt seem to be flooded with fantasy tropes thus far
• Companions are actually moderately interesting

Party

• 6 Man parties
• 10 companions you actually dont want to murder or have killed
• Option to create player created companions if you prefer a fully created party. Or if you want a mix between companions and heroes.
• What party members you bring along can actually affect you outside combat.

Character Creation

• 11 Classes or so
• 6 races each with multiple 2-4 subraces
• Thanks to Sawyerian Balance, EACH of the 6 attribtues (that thing BioWare seems hellbent on removing and Bethesderp already removed) will be useful to your character, no dump stats here.
• Character backgrounds galore, with ways to actually affect the gameplay other than just being mentioned in the intro and then effectively forgotten aside from one sidequest >_>

Roleplaying

• Character backgrounds affect your dialogue options. So do your attributes and skills.
• Speaking of skills, there are skillchecks EVERYWHERE, and same goes for attribute checks.
• Unlike what BioWare loves to advertise, this game actually has choices and consequences, the earliest consequence is something you see really early on, where one of your actions will determine if someone lives or dies.

Dungeon Design

• Dungeons have multiple paths.
• Dungeons have varied encounters.
• Dungeons can be tackled in multiple ways depending on your characters skills and choices he has made throughout his journey.

lol, wth

Not saying watching it makes you a pro-nazi too (it doesn't have pro-imperialist bs in the thing thankfully), but yeah. It's shit. I don't understand why people like it after like 4th volume. I'd rather watch Transformers, at least that's somewhat interesting if you clear your head.

I'd take AOT any day over Michael Bay fuckery.

And I'd take Michael Bay exploporn bullshit over bullshit gimmecky anime made by pro-nazi fuckup.

I guess it's just me being more responsible.

I would take both over you crappy opinions.

I despise Attack on Titan. I despise myself for wanting more Attack on Titan. >.> It'll probably go at glacier speed and have production quality drop in two episodes again, but I keep hoping it won't.

Even then though, it'll be better than anything Michael Bay puts out, funsohng. :x

I'd hope they got it right when the creators / writers / voice actors happen to be on-board and happen to be the same two people. :P But yes, more good adaptations, less games made on a six-month notice, please.

Spoony One is getting slammed for not seeing Bayo 2 as a game as good as the first.

What the hell has come over me. I want to play a COD game.

240 games and nothing to play.

4 games and i STILL go back to playing Destiny... F**K!

Advanced warfare any good?

Advanced Warfare is alright, it's multiplayer is wildly schizophrenic and its campaign is okay-ish from what I've played.

It's leaps and bounds better than Ghosts though.

Got around to playing Ori and the blind forest, holy shit parts of this game are frustrating as ****.

Its good but the best CoD game this gen is easily Titanfall.

Yeah it kind of blind-sides ya at first because you're lulled to sleep from the beauty of the game, but then you get the hang of it and it's blissful joy. Even the frustrating parts are fun because the controls are so tight.

Happy Sunday !

I'm at work :(

@lostrib: ouchie. But on the bright side, at least you can post on GS!

I actually have my Vita as well so i can play P4G

at least it has one decent use

@lostrib: Always did want to try that since everyone seemed to rave about it. I never did get around to picking it up when I had a Vita though.

Yeah it is fun, fantastic art style and the story is pretty intriguing so far. This game really reminds me of Aquaria for some reason which I like.
