The General Games Thread

Oooooo I played that so much when I was younger.

I generally prefer the newer ones. BF2 (2017) got really good after they removed all of EA's BS. Plus the starfighter controls and overall feel are much better and more fluid than in the earlier titles, and honestly flying spaceships is all I really cared about in those games.

I refuse to try the new Battlefronts - they will not be as good as the originals and I just don't have the money to waste.

We had the 2005 game for the original Xbox. I really loved it! Unfortunately, we had it at a time in our lives where we weren’t the most careful, and the game suffered for it. One of the sadder game losses.

Now I think I have the new one on my PS4? I haven’t actually played it, yet. I remember playing it at my cousin’s house when it first came out and not liking it much, but I’ve heard rumour it changed.

I got The Sims 3 on sale. This is the first time I've played a game in the series in like, 7 years. And damn am I having an enjoyable time. The issue is though, and it's a big issue, how relatively barebones the base game is. Like, you miss out on a lot if you don't get DLC. And the DLC is super pricey. Like, just adding in pets and seasons/weather would be €70.

I love DMC3 but it has one of the worst bosses i've ever encountered. It's cheap, a damage sponge and bleugh. Arkham. The fishes are cheap, the boss himself throws homing tentecles that can be a FUUUUCK YOOOOOOOOOOU attack but in the wrong way. It feels like the game just says [&@%!] off and die. Worse, you lose DT and style for Vergil. What should be a great idea is severely hampered by his ai. The lack of variety and essentially controlling two PCs. At once. Arkham is almost Bed of Chaos tier. I say almost because you can beat him without much issue with the right set up. Unlike Bed of CHaos who pretty much tells every dark soul player to fornicate themselves and bend to it's unpredictable, boring fight.

I may just loathe Bed of Chaos with my entire core.

The Sims loves it's DLC. It probably falls into Train Simulator levels of DLC(only, on a much lower level and not thousands of pounds). Wait, they removed weather to sell as DLC!? I swear the sims 2 did that. On PS2. For free. I loved Castaway and i'm glad I never got the 3rd game. THe barebones nature of it would drive me insane. Stupid EA. Stop doing this! If the game is good and enjoyable, we'll pay for it and play it!

Also, [&@%!] off Ubisoft. Sorry, Ubisoft claims that Lootboxes are good for the industry. I am a grumpy gamer, aren't I?

I am playing The Sims again, it's been quite some time since I played simulation games like this one.

Resident Evil Demo videos is now out on YT, have you guys seen it?

[AKB]

I remember hearing about it, but I just can't get into RE. I played most of them, and the series has always been really silly to me. It never seemed to know what it wanted to be, horror or humor. I think 4 was the best one by far, but 7 looks good to. I still plan on playing 7 at some point.

Did you like Interview with the Vampire? Do you like the Dark Brotherhood? Do you like WWII references? Then please try: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1011 ... ziklu_Bey/ Oh, despite being a splinter of the Schutzstaffel, the Longinus Dreizehn Orden is more Dark Brotherhood than Thalmor, the Dark Brotherhood are still a nest of professional murderers. Ones that most Elder Scrolls games allow the protagonist to join. This particular Dies Irae spinoff is from the viewpoint of one such vampiric member of the LDO, whom I compare to the Dark Brotherhood, whom are professional murderers. I think that's sufficient warning about the content.

Clockup is essentially if Sanguine and Molag Bal decided to found a game company. Playing Maggot Baits right now.

Any online game recommendation that I can playing during the lockdown?

[BetaB17]

Online? Well from my general experience n from where I live, some matchmaking games have been pretty iffy due to the high stress on ISPs right now.

But like for general games? Ya got your typical MMOs like ESO with content to feed the lull, or perhaps Monster Hunter Online for that nice challenge. Or maybe something like Overwatch is up your alley. Maybe go with something different n all around, like Warframe

Those are what came to mind as far as online goes. Most of my games are solo like Dark Souls, Prey, or Witcher
