Yeah I usually have a lot of screw this moments with these types of games. Only one so far with this one. But I got past it. It has a decent story, the jumping rarely feels forced and there is lots of gunplay which is what I am most comfortable with. Now my preference is a huge open world and occasionally you can feel the rail in this one. But all in all enjoying it.STEADYMOBBIN 22 said:

Halfway through episode 5 on TWD season 2.
Wow. I love season 2 even more than season 1.
On mission 11/16 on Alien Isolation. The game continues to be a fantastic survival horror experience. It is a slow burn type of game. Using different items now and getting creative (plus the flame thrower is a huge help) with fending off the Xenomorph. Felt great throwing a bomb at it and watching it take off after the explosion. Using smoke bombs to get through certain area's where there is limited cover. using noisemakers to attract the Xeno and slip out the other side. Finally picked up a shotgun which is very helpful with the Working Joe Synthetics and Rouge human enemies.
The game demands you be creative, work slow and steady and be able to stay still at times too. It is not an action shooter. It is a very strong homage to the first film. I love it. The difficulty is very hard and I am playing on easy. The Alien is no joke and the developer knocked it out of the park with the Alien AI.
So I also started Far Cry 4 this past weekend. WOW!!!!! Simply put it is the best FPS I have ever played...no question. There is so much to do and the living environment is second to none (the map is gigantic and I have not even opened up the north part of it). I finished Far Cry 3 (main story and liberated every outpost and turned on every tower) last week. I loved that game. Far Cry 4 is better in so many ways. It really shows off the power of the PS4. Just a wonderful game.

Hours played to money spent is crazy. $20 is worth it for as many BRs as you can take.
Once they patch out aimpunch it's going to be amazing.

Been playing a lot of Skyrim (Dragonborn) but as awesome as it is it gets to be a little "rinse-and-repeat", even with the level 81 cap which forces you to modify play styles to keep leveling it gets to be a lot. So I started looking into mods and after reading tons of reviews I installed "Companion Vilja" and while her quest line is not particularly special she is an amazingly robust character. I mean thousands of lines of dialogue from simple comments about an innkeeper in Markarth to more thoughtful monologues on the nature of love and loss. She is easily the most interesting character in the vanilla game and makes all other vanilla game companions and Carls seem annoyingly mundane by comparison. It's truly amazing that a couple of unpaid modders would put so much time into creating something like this but bravo to them because they made the game far more interesting.

Anybody know if there is a workaround for the banging/shaking screen bug for the 360 version of Skyrim?
Essentially ruined the game for me as I have ZERO interest replaying from the start.

I like older Clementine far more.
I really am enjoying Jane. I just am finding this one far more tense and mature. Season one was brilliant too. I loved it. I am just feeling this even more.
Lee was the best character in the series so far that I agree with. But Clem is so much more developed now in season 2. Kenny has also been super strong in season 2. Carver was a true sadistic SOB.
Overall more grit in season 2. I finally played 400 days and really enjoyed that too.
I can't wait for season 3!!!!

I really wish that 400 Days played into season 2. Nevermind. Looking back, I guess it played more into it than I thought. It's been so long since I played 400 Days. I didn't even remember anything continuing over.
Thanks for fixing the spoiler.

This was one of the mods I installed when I went PC, and I concur - excellent.
Also downloaded a mod that really beefs up your player home (the Lakewood one) - becomes almost a small village. A few other assorted mods (dungeons/etc), and a self imposed "get all Dragon Priest masks" quest, and there's another 100 hours out of this thing.
Amazing game.

So the old thread is back it seems. What happened to the new thread?

There are no posts in this thread between Feb 23 and March 3 as of right now. I think that is the time frame of the new thread.

I thought the point was to keep the post count down on these threads and it was the reason it was supposed to be "locked and moved to archives".

15 threads were closed and moved to archive, but yesterday 2 of the 15 came back and are open again. They might be testing something.

I just bought Shadow of Mordor. I don't typically like rpg games but I did love Skyrim and Mordor seems to get rave reviews from players.

I only say that because I'm not an RPG guy at all. SKYrim for example I hate, Diablo surprisingly I am enjoying.
I LOVED MORDOR

I already got all the Dragon Priest masks (vanilla game, need one or two more in Dragonborn I think), it was kind of underwhelming IMO. I would prefer to have them on display in my house. I saw one mod for a gigantic compound, it was redonkulous but it was a unique structure not an expansion on a Hearthfire house. I will look for the one to expand Lakeview Manor, because that is my favorite home.jwb said:
The problem I am finding with the mods is they make the vanilla characters kinda boring, particularly as it relates to NPC interactions ("I GET IT LYDIA YOU'RE HONORED TO ####### SEE ME! NOW #### AND GO MAKE ME A TURKEY POT PIE!!!" "HEY BELETHOR THIS IS OUR 8,000TH ####### TRANSACTION!!! I KNOW EVERYTHING IS FOR ####### SALE! THIS IS WHY I KEEP ROBBING YOU!").
Such a great game.

The archive forum is gone from the Our Forums page (though it never worked when it was there).

I'm fine with merging too. We don't need them both. It creates confusion. Especially when both have the same thread title.

There's a little bit of a curve. Not sure it's even a "learning" curve.
I don't want to ruin it, so I won't explain.

can you put it in a spoiler for me because im like level 7 in everything and still dying way too much.

What is killing you the most? How are you dying? Falling deaths can SMB, G, but those are just my fault.

lolo
or NOT! (depending on how badass*you want to make it).
*"badass" here mostly means hiding / running in the dark in sheer terror.

swarms of zombies when i have to fight. Im talking during the day
JerseyToughGuys

not earth shattering, but my mindset changed at some point during the game. I started out trying to "clear out" zombies whenever I was swarmed. Kill, kill, kill, until there are no more to kill. Now, I try to avoid fighting and killing zombies as much as possible. Kill only the ones that are literally blocking you, avoid the rest (of course this doesn't apply to safe zones). Hurdle them, kick them, use your counter moves, ect. Swinging a weapon takes time, and most zombies you are going to have to whack a bunch of times to take out (at least early). Avoiding fights saves your weapons, which is a big deal early IMO.
There is one early mission in particular that has to be close to impossible if you set out to fight your way to the objective.

Fun game, pleasantly surprised.

I picked up Dying Light and played 4.5 hours straight last night with my Brother-inlaw in Co-Op.
THIS GAME ROCKS!!!!!!!!
Resources, scavenging and exploring.....that is the key early. Also you get 2X's XP at night...but night time is craziness.
I absolutely love the vibe, music and ambience of this title. Very retro, 1980's vibe going on. Think Escape From New York meets Day Of The Dead (the vastly underrated and best flick in the Dead series IMO).
This game begs to be played online with friends. Up to 4 can play at a time in the campaign.
