Agree with @anon3515918 here - it massively improves once you’re out of the city. That whole bit is pretty dull tbh. Stick with it! I still maintain the best way to play TLOU is on grounded difficulty (or whichever one it is that you don’t have listen mode), with headphones/good surround sound. Very hard but so much more intense and immersive.
whispers its a naughty dog game you don’t go to those games for the engaging gameplay but the high production values and characters
Last of Us is a great engaging story and lavishes atmosphere. As a game its kinda eh. Great muliplayer though if its still active
My mate did say to play it on the higher difficulty. He has beaten it about 7 times on the highest setting and 1&2 are his two favourite games ever.
I wonder if I should have. Equally, I’m impatient and sense I’m in this for the story, not really the gameplay.
Never played a Naughty Dog game before, but yeah so far it’s more like a Metal Gear so far than a Splinter Cell.
this is all games now isn’t it
Does… anyone want to buy my Oculus Rift S?
I dunno, not for me! Hollow knight, Rocket League, Hades, Bayonetta, Hotshot racing…
Switch doesn’t have many interactive sim games like that really so it’s been great to go back to games where, y’know… play it occasionally.
What was the name of the genre @Scagden coined? Short walking games where you can’t die or something.
Short Visually Interesting Games in Which you cannot Die!
Gris, Far Lone Sails, Short Hike, Untitled Goose Game my current faves in the genre and its the kind of game I love playing on the switch for some reason.
oh these are all fine. i was more on about games where you barely feel in control of it and constantly forcing you to stop and look at some bit of design they’re really proud of and then there’s an explosion and 19 monsters fly out and then a truck drives through the screen and you grab on for dear life and then you drive off a cliff and somehow manage to hold onto a suspension bridge which happens to fall down right in front of you and then you do a backflip into a boat and etc
meanwhile all i’ve done is hold forward on the stick
Oh I think the term for those is “massive budget, qta filled, nonsense games (possibly film tie ins).”
I invented SVIGIWYCD as a term of endearment. Not so fond of the games like you’ve mentioned.
You have described ‘Star Wars: Fallen Order’.
i might actually play goose game
after i replay four old resident evil games one more time each, obviously
It’s pretty old school in this way. I replayed the first few chapters before the second one released and felt the same. Not many linear, story driven games around these days… moved on to open world souls-rogue-like battle royales.
But really worth persevering for the story if nothing else. It’s a fantastic game. The second one opens up a bit more and gameplay is much more fluid. Story isn’t quite as tight but still very engaging. I think you’ll be blown away by the visuals as you mostly play on Switch. It’s proper eye candy.
So yeah, play both
Nearly finished Zone of the Enders 1 last night. Shit compared to the sequel.
My partner is proper nagging me to play Suikoden 2, I really should do that.
Also got the platinum on Jak and Daxter again. Bloody love that game.
For ages now, probably since I first played Majora’s Mask, I’ve always daydreamed about writing my own mystery game with a time loop mechanic. Now the industry’s finally caught up and it seems loads of them are coming out at once, oh well.
The cooling actually looks good
Have THAT, PC nerds!
Well I suppose if people are happy to play as a goat or a goose, playing as the sort of person who builds there own pc isn’t too much of a stretch.
Safetywink.
