Still need to buy that... ugh @ my wallet

On the plus side, Xenoblade is one of those games you can potentially find yourself immersed in for a long time. I've already clocked like 25 hours and I'm still in the first area lol. Mind you the areas are insanely massive. I'm shocked that the WiiU can even manage to create areas like this with no load times other than the initial one.

Regardless, you'll get your moneys worth out of it.

Is it super good? Was debating getting it, but I'm a bit sick of farcry. Does it feel different enough, or is it farcry 4 with rocks and spears?

drave 02-25-2016 05:48 AM

From the gameplay I have watched, the latter sir.

ClockShot 02-25-2016 07:11 AM

There's a fair amount of copy & paste from the other games. :$

But it's totally different spin on what we're used to. You don't have guns and rocket launchers, and cars at your disposal. No scopes to line up that perfect headshot from afar. No money, no stores.

Sticks and stones and plants is all you got. You're hoofin' it most of the game until you're able to tame the larger beasts to ride on. Although there are fast travel points to cut down on travel time.

I'm having a blast right now. Far Cry 4 was alright but I hated the damn story. I'm sure you'll like this. Worse thing that happens is that you take it back and get your money back.

Far Cry 5: Close Cry Domestic Edition where we have to break into neighborhoods and take out all the sheep that bow to Meltzer,,,

Need to go bootleg that right right now.

Splitting time between The Witcher 2 and Metal Gear Rising.

Bah.

Blink, the tranq. arrows, and choke outs are your best friends.

Pretty easy to get "Clean Hands".

Fignuts 02-26-2016 07:07 PM

Just bought Amplitude, Crypt of the Necrodancer, and Gone Home. Was only gonna get Gone Home, and Amplitude, but I found out dB sound works of Super Meat Boy fame did the soundtrack for CotN, so I had to pick it up.

Sepholio 02-27-2016 09:18 AM

^^^Indeed. I prefer 3rd person for stealth tactics as well. Gives you a much better sense of your place in the environment.

I think my main problem is I struggle with stealth in 1st person games, I had the same problem in Deus Ex Human Rev. Where-as games like Assassin's Creed and Metal Gear Solid I'm fine because the 3rd person perspective gives me a clearer idea of whether I'm covered or not.

I've just picked up Deus Ex: H.R. again, as a matter of fact. I'm hoping I'll find some way to defeat the boss I never got past last time.

ClockShot 02-28-2016 07:19 AM

Which boss troubles you, sir?

DAMN iNATOR 02-28-2016 08:22 PM

Not sure. Been literally years since I last played. Looking through the IGN psge though, I think it may have been Namir, the third boss. Also, I should've noted before, I'm restarting from the beginning, not starting at any boss fight.

ClockShot 02-29-2016 06:25 AM

Well for starters, DO NOT get the upgrade chip when all hell breaks loose. Makes the fight much easier.

After that, Typhoon and a high powered gun should bring him down pretty quick.

DAMN iNATOR 02-29-2016 11:09 AM

LOL, cool, thanks for the tip. I just got through scouring YT & IGN, and it was Yelena Fedorova who was giving me fits.

I did notice a couple of nice "alternative strategies" to make all but the last boss a lot more manageable. I guess I'll see how I fare when I get to those points.

ClockShot 02-29-2016 12:55 PM

She's easier. Cloak, grenades, typhoon, and gun. When she runs away, creep around. Look for the ripples in the water when she's cloaked. If you find her first, unload on her.

DAMN iNATOR 02-29-2016 10:42 PM

Well, first I've got quite a bit to get through before I get to her. However, I will take your advice under advisement.

#BROKEN Hasney 03-04-2016 08:34 AM

Trying to play Xenoblade Chronicles X, but it is one of the most obtuse RPGs I've ever played. I have no idea how to start the next story mission even with the marker on my map and all my side quests seem to have no location for me.

I want to like it, but it's hard.

drave 03-04-2016 08:38 AM

They are kinda known for being obtuse aren't they.


Seriously though, I remember playing through on PS2 I think it was, and it was pretty bad.

Think it was Xenosaga maybe....

I finished Xenoblade Chronicles on Wii though. This is like a whole new level.

road doggy dogg 03-04-2016 09:07 AM

Still wanna grab XCX. Are all these games the same "universe" as the original Xenogears on PS1? Really enjoyed that game except until the story got all weird

road doggy dogg 03-04-2016 09:08 AM

had one of my fav VG tracks too

Worst part for me was sitting for nearly 2 hours and only actually experiencing 2-3 fights......

Other than that it was a shit ton of just running around with CMOS and reading. Bored me to death at the time and I never finished it.

Think its more of a spiritual successor type in the Xenogear series. No direct connection but its not just a spin-off series either.

Then again the whole Xeno series is like that.

DAMN iNATOR 03-04-2016 07:25 PM

Working through God of War III...just killed Hephæstus...Kratos is fucking awesome.

UPDATE: ...Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand I made it to the end, but the fucking thing freezes up in the credits every time it gets to the "Multimedia"sextion, preventing me from getting my gold "Vengeance Complete" trophy, thus officially beating the game. #FML

Fucking 90's Square. So many good tunes.

#BROKEN Hasney 03-05-2016 07:34 AM

Honestly, XCX has the best JRPG soundtrack I've heard in a while. Scan about:

Playing Twilight Princess HD. Never played it before because I hated the Wii. Went into Hero Mode too. Seems fun so far. Not a fan of being a wolf though but that should be better as the game goes on.

road doggy dogg 03-06-2016 01:49 AM

Mine came in yesterday and I got around to starting it today. I honestly barely remember the game since it was like 10 years since I've played it. As far as I'm concerned I'm getting a new Zelda game :love:

Started Hero Mode, gonna use the Ganondorf amiibo too for more of a challenge

Ruien 03-06-2016 07:36 AM

Geez RDD, are you some all star Zelda player or something? Seems like that would be overkill.

Locke 03-06-2016 06:20 PM

What is Hero mode?

Ruien 03-06-2016 08:40 PM

I think you take double damage and there are no hearts anywhere to regain health. Found a fairy though in the second dungeon.
