I loved 1, 2, and 3. Platinumed all of them on PS3 and again on PS4 when the remasters came out. I forced myself to finish 4 and never revisted it. The pacing is weird, and they changed up the gameplay quite a bit from the earlier titles. But I really didn't like the hard turn away from the light-and-breezy atmosphere to something more somber. This franchise is supposed to be Indiana Jones, not Sartre.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DallasDMac 2,766 Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 (edited) Days Gone question. I am about to start Riding South and have not found one trap recipe. I don't have any proximity bombs or anything. Is that normal? I'm pretty sure I have cleared every ambush site and found their bunkers. But nothing. Edit: Found the answer to the proximity bomb question, so please disregard. Not sure what other traps are out there. Edited April 14, 2020 by DallasDMac Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah 3 played exactly as the first 2. I've been away for 5 years though so 4 seems refreshing, but it's probably not lol. But I agree with the gameplay. I think it's why I never rushed out to get 4 after playing the first 3. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I looked it up and it says go until you fall in and a scene will trigger that will bring you to chapter 11. I cant get the cut scene to trigger. I am stuck with Ellie standing on top of a truck surrounded by the rushing water. I have no where else to go that I can see and no cut scene is being triggered.

Oh man, get on HZD. Another great story game, but more "fun" then emotionally draining (in a good way, but it is) than TLoU. Took me two tries to get into HZD, but once I made it past the "intro" section I loved it. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It is currently on switch. It is a metrovania style game with rpg elements. Looks really really good and right up your alley. Also, take a look at Dead Cells (on everything) if you have not.

DallasDMac 2,766 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 I'm shocked by the HZD comments. Yes it started slowly. But the story was far and away the best of any game I have ever played IMHO. Different strokes... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
prosopis 1,462 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 There is a lot going on in HZD. I am not the youngest guy here and I am sort of at a point where there can be to much going on in a game for me. I looked up a walk through and read about some of the controls and there was stuff in there I had no clue about. I was going to just play this without using a walk through but I think I am going to restart the game and use the walk through. If I can't really get all the controls after playing a few rounds I will probably move on to another game. * I do like the idea of the story so far. I really like the landscape and the machines that are roaming around. I do think I will like this a lot if I can figure out the controls. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thecatch 2,211 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 I thought the controls and combat in HZD were mediocre at best, but the world-building and narrative were great, especially in the expansion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ConnSKINS26 5,718 Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 The combat in HZD is intuitive, intense, and a total blast, I'm so confused as I thought that the combat was universally loved but it seems not. The story is great but imo the fast-paced, gadgety combat is the thing that keeps it from being a sci-fi Far Cry. It already has the collectibles, towers to reveal fog of war, etc. from that genre of open world 3rd person clone. The combat and enemy variety and how that all interacts is where it sets itself apart imo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
