System Wars Lounge v70--The Action Adventure Ambiguous Movie Edition

Oh god that's a horrible thought, genuinely more interested in seeing it now though.

Fallout New vegas is dope.

You playing it with any mods?

Alot of good ones out there. adding to what's already good game.

Cant really fix much of the jankiness of that game, sadly.

I got an asthma attack last night in the middle of a very crowded Delhi Metro (if you've seen those videos of the Tokyo Underground, you know just how crowded the Delhi Metro can be).

It was a bit of a disaster, I had to deboard, and I still don't think my breathing is normalized over 12 hours later.

Asthma attacks make me wanna end it all.

:'(

Nah, I've just been busy doing other things. I've been reading a lot more. I've done a lot of house work in my free time. Finishing up the season at work and preparing for the next season has been busy. And I've been going out a little more, whether it's hanging out with people, going to the movies, or going to a concert or comedian. Looking forward to getting to play again, though!

Stupid life getting in the way, amirite?

After reading all on Nvidia’s GTX 1080, I'm leaning towards buying it day one, I do need to replace my 970, I love it but it's taking hits on max settings but that GTX 1080 though, my Bank is gonna hate me spending $600 on it but first things first, they need to overclocked the MF out before me and my Bank get into negotiation.

Nope, Vanilla. Works fine though.

Looks like NeoGAF has its own 'smear campaign'

lul

@charizard1605: have you played MGS3?

@Blabadon: yeh

I've been meaning to do a replay of that game for years though, but the 3DS remake sort of rubs me off the wrong way (might try it again on New 3DS though), and while I figured I would do the HD Collection on PS3 or PS Vita and even get some Trophies along the way last year, I got distracted by getting fully into The Witcher 3 around that time.

@charizard1605: have you played The Witcher 2?

@Blabadon: Not through to the end.

What's with all the questions?

@charizard1605: are you playing Uncharted 4?

Waiting for it to be delivered, still.

@charizard1605: butter or tandoori chicken?

Uncharted 4 is so fucking good.

I started playing Tearaway Unfolded earlier, but that's on the backburner now. They changed more from the Vita version than I was expecting.

@Blabadon: I'm vegetarian bro

Welp @Blab, you were right. Played it more, like it more.

Indeed.

My copy of Uncharted 4 was supposed to be here today.

Damn you Flipkart, I hate you.

@charizard1605: you need to understand, tagging @Blab does nothing

It's a modified tag. They used to work, apparently they don't anymore.

lol

Just got TW3

Now to wait 35+ hours because I have to download the game.

frking frontier internet the only internet offered where I live

I declared witcher 3 a great game for like hour until I went to novigrad. and game become so damn boring.

@charizard1605: which planet are you on now?

Uh, just finished all the objectives on the RYNO/hoverboarding one.

@charizard1605: nice, I spent a decent amount of time just doing hoverboarding, then Uncharted came out the next day so Ratchet's gonna come after.

I still haven't received my copy of Uncharted. I imagine that one I'd finish in a day or two, Ratchet is one I'll keep returning to.

90s Arcade Racer Seems To Be Cancelled For Wii U

I haven't played uncharted since the first game but 4 makes me want to buy a ps4.

I might go back to one of the original three Uncharted games myself this weekend (since I don't have 4 and it's apparently all the rage right now).

In other news, I am now Level 42 in Splatoon. Now I get to enjoy earning another 550 points 2-5 at a time in order to level up again. Yay...!

I'm desperately trying to finish Ratchet before my copy of Uncharted comes in, but yeah, that's not gonna happen. I've got over two thirds of the game still to go lol.

Wow, did they make TW3 easier than its predecessors? It feels that way.

WHy the fudge @verbtex gets to make another SW Lounge?

12 years later, Burnout 3 is still godly. Racing game equivalent to Persona 4 golden.

You know, I wanted to have the MCU as a collection on my shelf because I'm a bit of a nerd in that sense. Only to find out I'd have to spend cash on 8 separate films to achieve this. I have a few already but that many purchases? Even on Black Friday that'd be a pretty penny.

Ugh. I suddenly don't wanna anymore...

@mmmwksil: Best to do it in chunks between fillms, right? Get like, two of the older ones. Cheaper now right?

@darkspineslayer:
Cheaper now... pffftt.

Disney tax, friend. They are still roughly $15-20 a pop. Less on DVD but I want the Blu-Ray for the extras which do not come included with DVDs anymore. I am keeping my eye on sales from Amazon or local shops but I'm not holding my breath. We shall see how I fare come November.

The game even gets easier the further you progress.

That makes me sad.

I mean I still like it but you'd think it would be harder.

What difficulty setting are you in? Because Normal isn't that challenging.

@charizard1605: yo the fucking boss in Quartu was amazing. One of the most fun I've ever fought.

The Witcher 2 was the same in that regard, even despite being a more linear game that should have been easier to control and balance around.

In the case of The Witcher 3, it's delivery of difficulty seems to have been balanced around the lowest denominator of those that dont want to explore the world and just want to progress through the more direct quest-chains that you cant miss. It never sat with me where exploration was rewarded with an easier game, redundant loot and pretty Steam screenshots. This is why I dont mind a degree of scaling in RPGs to an extent to keep a consistent gameplay balance (preferably, have a minimum and maximum range, which is a good middle ground). It just gets a bad reputation because one developer that makes popular RPGs does it quite aggressively and poorly.

In the case of harder difficulties, It adds some mechanics that encourages you to be more resourceful. The direct layer of combat does make combat more punishing to keep you attentive so that you arent going through the motions, but at the same time, it makes its exploitable so-so combat encounters stick around for longer without adding different dynamics over the standard difficulty. It's just that being resourceful usually just piles up % boosts to get things done faster, instead of it adding breadth to the combat, which is my biggest criticism of TW3 as it sorely needed that for the combat to sustain a 70+ hour game.

@Blabadon: My favorite in the series too.

Haven't got there yet. Just beat the Snagglebeast. And then my copy of Uncharted finally came in.

Yeah minus that fucking homing attack that makes getting health and ammo back annoying, it's fun as shit. Every part of this game on Hard is pretty damn satisfying, minus a few difficulty spikes. Even if it's lolwesterngamedevsdifficulty it's still quite nice to feel catered to a challenge when the game is being marketed toward a different audience.

Well looks like Michael Fassbender will have a black spot in his acting career record because of the Assassins Creed movie lol. Trailer sucked and something's should just be what they are where they found success in their medium and not try to aspire for something that will most likely fail like Prince of Persia and now AC.

@Zassimick: apologies for late reply but yeah pretty much life sucking away my gaming identity and forcing me to be a boring generic matrix like person who must work his butt off so that I can survive later in life lol. I can't wait until I finish my finals. Boy I wish I was a kid forever at times, I used to enjoy gaming more too.
