Is this game any easier than the first game? I was ROCKING the first few chapters without any issue but that third chapter boss was just impossible for me. I tried for weeks, and used every trick I could think of, but was just not doing enough damage. I even called in reinforcements but the two of us could barely make…

I went shopping a couple days ago in Massachusetts. My local store was out of:

I want to like Nioh so much. The mechanics seem great, and I’m not a huge Souls fan. I played the first several times, up until the Chapter 3 boss. Humongous wall. Even being well above the “Recommended Level” I was doing almost no damage. I know the basic attacks and how to avoid them, but there’s so so so many of…

I live in a place zoned rural/residential, so I think semi-rural. It’s kind of more a bedroom community, but it’s right in that area. We have pockets of stops in walkable places (like rail trails) but NOTHING near my house. If there were stops in my subdivision then I’d go walking for them all the time, but as it is…

In the video the resources clearly go over 100, military is at 310 at one point.

I saw this in my grocery store yesterday and didn’t get it. I did get Diet Dr. Pepper & Cream Soda though. It’s good, mostly just tastes like a slightly-creamier DDP. 

I’m honestly not sure if I’m going to continue. I still have no clue why the character is doing anything, and the game doesn’t seem eager to explain. Exploration for the sake of exploration is boring without a goal, at least to me. This game seemingly had no “hook” to it. 

My answer is cheating but I’d suggest both Red Dead Redemptions. The first was my favorite game until the second came along. The slow burn of 2 is not for everyone, but I was enraptured from the start. YES, even the annoying snow tutorial (though I do not enjoy it on replays). I never got bored of it, ever. I didn’t…

Can you spoil it a BIT for me? I started it and got the map and opened the shop and everything, but I still have no idea what, if anything, is actually going on in the game. I’ve explored a bit, ran into a boss that two-shotted me, and am generally extremely underwhelmed. But everyone says it’s amazing. Can you fill…

Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t WotL have horrible slowdown issues? I played <a version> on my Vita and it was sooo freaking slow. I never wanted to cast spells because of how slow it was, and it felt like the FPS was single digits. LOW single digits.

I felt the same way, and rushed the last few chapters, and post-game I wished I had spent more time in the world. There was so much I had missed seeing, but with no story driving me forward, I wasn’t as interested in exploring the world for the sake of exploring.

I didn’t really see him as a whiny little brat though? If anything he seemed to take some semblance of control over his life just by having a job and surviving.

Some game developers use the “started the game” achievement as a cheap way to track how many people who buy their games actually play the game even once. You’d think it would be “close to 100%” but oddly, that’s not true.

Drinking beer but not getting drunk is a “waste of beer”? Yikes.

Man, now I want a RDR2-style system for Roach in The Witcher 4, where you can store different things on Roach and have to manage which items you take. I actually loved that about RDR2.

There was an old Let’s Play that served as a tutorial for me, in the “Tutorial Isle” aka Ireland. It walks through the early game, and is AMAZING as a tutorial for CKII because Ireland has no king at the start of the game in 1066 (or a little earlier, or a little later). So everyone starts as Dukes or some such and…

You can get Fibbage and Quiplash separately now, and they’re like $6 each, at least on Xbox. Jackbox 2 is also on GamePass.

I can answer a little here. The biggest mistake EVERYONE makes talking about The Witcher series is they call it a fantasy RPG. This makes people think of Dragon Age, LOTR, and so on. It’s not this at all. The Witcher is best described as a Folk Lore RPG. Most of the stories and plots are rooted in Polish folklore…

I love Hardwick, and when he was accused it really sucked. I see a lot of myself in him at times. When he was investigated and they said he was innocent (or at least, that they can’t prove her allegations and innocent-until-proven-guilty and all that) I thought it was when #MeToo and the whole movement would show…

This is a flawed study. It does not take into account CRUST area and as an avid no-cruster, this should absolutely factor in. I don’t like to eat the bones of the pizza.
