Just playing Nioh (1). Game is awesome, why did I wait so long?
Pretty much the only new games I enjoy are Soulslikes.
I played the demo of that
It was OK, but I found it WAY more irritating than Souls
i need to ask @fuguer if Weeb Souls is any good. he's been plating non-stop for like 2 weeks
@DarthSammich Anime Souls is decent. From Software > Nioh > Code Vein > Surge and the rest
aaaaah Totally forgot about Surge
Haven't actually played Surge 1 or 2. Uninstalled The Surge 2 after about 10 minutes.
oof
https://youtu.be/_4cs-xT8qL8 So, did anybody else try to dress up Vito like he was dressed up as at the end of Mafia 1?
https://youtu.be/X05ooFxdPkc Jeez, this is haunting. One of the most brutal scenes in any game I've played. Depressing since Henry was actually cool, down to Earth guy, sombody who you could actually learn to like, you feel like you've actually lost a friend with him dead.
I liked Mafia 2
Never bothered with Mafia 3, too much forced diversity
"Hey, let's make the main protag in a mafia-game, something heavily associated with Italy, black bcuz we wuz spagetti-o's"
at least on launch, mafia 3 was buggy crap and had terrible gameplay.. so even without diversity, it's not a good game
The mob was strictly based on ethnicity
You had to be a ethnic Italian or Irish person to join the Italian or Irish Mafia
Or Russian, Polish etc
And I mean genetically born Italian
They wouldn’t fuck around with “ethnicity isn’t genetic”
@The Eternal Swede Nah I think it accurately portrays the civil rights era. There are plenty of Italians and Irish, Vito also returns. You work with him to "avenge" Joe, though he's actually revealed to be alive at the end of the game, working for Leo.
Lincoln wasn't as good a protag as Vito but I still liked him and his moral ambiguity.
@snake Lincoln dosen't actually join any particular mob, he goes to war with the American mafia, and brings others under his control. The Italians, Haitians, and Irish mobs that you work with, are all as you describe.
I think Lincoln was well-voiced also.
Ironically by a Latino.
Mafia 3 works pretty well as a movie, the voice acting was one of the best things about it.
Also Lincoln was a member of the Black mob, who are destroyed, and replaced by Dixie mafia, then by the Haitians, who were at war with the black mob over a disagreement with their cooperation with the Italian mob.
https://youtu.be/9Z5upkds9GM But yeah, nobody did this. I don't know anybody who made this decision.
https://youtu.be/zYl9SneCMGI But yeah, Joe is alive.
They aged them up way too much tbh
They'd be in their 40s at this point. Both Vito and Joe look like they're 50.
https://youtu.be/9Ah6yrGOz-Q Yeah, great fucking story this game had.
Watching some gameplay of Death Stranding. I expected a terrible game.... but not THIS terrible
How do you have future bikes that can go up vertical hills, but dead stop when it hits a tiny pebble?
Death Stranding seemed too much of a weird art project for me to even have considered that it might be good
That ad didn't make it better
That ad is the best thing about it. The game is literally just a walking simulator
and the world looks AWFUL
B-b-but it's *mysterious*
You dont even walk through good looking terrain, the world looks like it is full of volcanic expelled rocks
