Ugh, started Skyrim again and my save keeps crashing. Gave up

Fignuts 05-04-2018 05:45 AM

Finished the main quest line of God War. What a god damn game. Phenomenal narrative. One of gaming's best, easily.

Definitely going to be a sequel

SPOILER: show

Thor and Odin, while talked about throughout the game, never actually show up. This game focuses on Freya and Baldur. Thor's sons Magni and Modi show up as Baldurs underlings. End of the game reveals the kid to be Loki.

I imagine the next game will feature Thor as the main antagonist, with Odin rounding out the new trilogy.

You'd think I'd be disappointed in Thor or Odin not even appearing, but they are talked about enough where they definitely still feel like they have a presence. But mainly I'm not upset because they did such a great job with Baldur and the overarching conflict with him throughout the game. I'm glad they dedicated all that time to him and saved the others for later, because he's an absolutely fantastic antagonist throughout.



There's a post game now. Complete different activities to get the best armor sets in the game game so you can stand up to the special enemies which I assume lead to a special cutscene if you beat all of them.

I started GoW, realized how epic it would be pretty quick, and then put it on hold until my new TV arrives that will do it glorious justice lol. Should be here today. Super stoked.

I was spoiled on it before I even started playing so I'm not sure when I would have clocked him. He has an S Link in Golden though and comes off as a bit of a sociopath. At the point where you ID him it felt like all the other potential suspects were already dead or otherwise eliminated. Was tempted to accuse Naoki or Shu just for fun.

Playing Skyrim again, want to "finish" the game. Yeah, I know you can't really "finish" an open world RPG like that, but I want to finish most of the quests that I find and the main storyline. It's been sitting on my shelf for years and I've played it on and off...

My ex finished every quest, except the radiant ones that can't be finished and found every location available.

Still impressed as fuck by it.

It's right up there with P5 for me. I think I actually like the Investigation Team as a group of character more than the Phantom Thieves but P5 is the ultimate in style and has the quality of life improvements going for it. :heart: both.

Jusr finished it. Core cast is better in p4. Main plot is equal i think. Game play p5 is better.

But this cast was really great and might be my fav party of all time. I really loved these characters.

Ultra Mantis 05-05-2018 05:58 PM

Did you get the true ending? And did you stick with best girl Yukiko?

Destor 05-05-2018 08:37 PM

Yes to both. Though inhad to save scum. Triggering the final dungeon was not intuitive and had i not fished about after beating id not known it existed. Glad i did though.

Also they recast Chei in P4G...i do not approve

NOT A 🔥, JUST AN OBSERVATION! ;)

Destor 05-05-2018 11:33 PM

Im aware thats how its supposed to work but i just get a black box. I care very little about embeding via mobile so i put no effort in after that.

Im confident Mantis can click links tho

Fignuts 05-05-2018 11:47 PM

I have never understood the utter revulsion some people experience when a YouTube vid isn't embedded.

Destor 05-06-2018 12:41 AM

I think daminator thinks Mantis has a learning disability and doesnt know how the mouse can click hyperlinks. Kind of a dick thing to imply of him if you ask me.

Fignuts 05-06-2018 01:03 AM

First time I've seen the word "hyperlinks" since 1997.

Destor 05-06-2018 01:53 AM

Didnt mean to lose you with my TECHNICAL KNOW-HOW

Ultra Mantis 05-06-2018 11:55 AM

Wow Chie sounds way less annoying in the original, I mean its still Chie but it makes me wonder if that effects the whole group dynamic. Mind-blowing. Almost as mind-blowing as DAMN iNATOR's hyperlink shaming, anti-accessibility stance. There is just no place for this sort of behaviour in 2018 :nono:.

I found out about the final dungeon because I looked up what I'd done wrong when I got the bad ending and it said something about going to Junes instead of going home on the last day. Would not have figured that out at all on my own. Thought that NPC was suspicious as hell (doubly so when no part time job actually came up) but then like the first three or four NPCs you meet are all pretty dodgy, figured it was a red herring but nope, was really happy that paid off.

Ultra Mantis 05-06-2018 12:11 PM

Just noticed Teddie also has a different voice actor too, but they sound pretty much the exact same. The one thing I did notice in Golden was some of the new Kanji lines it felt like Troy Baker forgot which character he was reading and sounded totally off pitch. Not quite up to your usual Troy Baker standard of excellent Troy Bakering.

Destor 05-06-2018 12:18 PM

Chie in P4 is soft and caring P4G is a spazz and i hate her.

Its not saying the secret end game is bad because it was excellent im just not sure how anyone would ever find it on their own.

Yeah the teddie cast is solid and they added a bunch of bear puns so its a win

Kanji is much more aggressive at all times from the audio samples ive found in p4 than in p4g. Not sure if one is better or worse.

Destor 05-06-2018 12:21 PM

And to the earlier convo about p4 v p5 i do have to say while the sound track of p4 is excellent p5 is among the GOATs

Ultra Mantis 05-06-2018 12:30 PM

Haha Chie is my least favourite of the golden gang and it's definitely a lot to do with the voice. The Kanji stuff is pretty odd because he just doesn't sound like Kanji in a couple of scenes, most of the time he's fine. Even when he's chill he's usually got this brash "loudness" to him, but his Rank 10 scene in particular he's so soft spoken it just doesnt feel right.

Agreed, P5 soundtrack is leaps and bounds ahead, nothing wrong with P4's at all but it's nowhere near as epic. That moment when Signs of Love doesn't play at home anymore is the one place P4's sound design really got me.

Destor 05-06-2018 12:53 PM

Not sure when I'll donp3. Wanna get a pallet cleanse in between. Maybe a month or so

If i could control my party members id be playing right now

Ultra Mantis 05-06-2018 01:51 PM

I hope you like Tentarafoo.

Destor 05-06-2018 02:11 PM

I mean if my allies run away i might be better off lol

ClockShot 05-06-2018 04:34 PM

Finished God of War (PS4).

Hell of a story. Mopping up the last few trophies for the Platinum.

I'll either fire up Yakuza 6 for finish off Secret of Mana.

Set their tactics to knock down as soon as you can, then support on Yukari or another healer. Scan every single enemy, keep your Personas stocked to cover every element and always have a healer on hand. Never rely on your party, they really are dumb as fuck.

Destor 05-07-2018 06:24 PM

In non gaming news (since this is now the persona thread) i ordered the p4 anime

Ultra Mantis 05-08-2018 07:50 PM

Haha I've seen a few clips, Yu is a very strange boy.

Destor 05-08-2018 08:37 PM

His lines are read so flat haha

Also he is voiced by the guy who voices ingame adechi...curious to see if they recast adechi

Ultra Mantis 05-09-2018 02:18 PM

He's still Adachi from what I've seen, at least one character gets recast part way in due to the original VAs having scheduling conflicts. Baker went off to work on some project about fungal infections I believe.

Destor 05-09-2018 02:34 PM

P4G Chie too... :(

El Fangel 05-09-2018 03:34 PM

Terraria multiplayer.

Been fun as fuck. Anyone else play?

Fignuts 05-09-2018 05:44 PM

Why are you talking about Terraria in the Persona thread?

Destor 05-09-2018 07:28 PM

Fuck outta here with that off topic bull shit Icebox

Ruien 05-13-2018 07:08 PM

Getting close to Crash coming to the Switch/XBox. So excited.
