2000s Bioware made the best RPGs in the history of the genre. No, they're not crunchy. No, they're not infinitely replayable. But they were memorable, meaningful, evocative, and fun.

 No.60212

mass effect 1 was awesome. mass effect 2 was a weird cover-shooter shaped so heavily by the current era of fps console gaming, all the rpg stuff was gone which sucked. still need to play 3 and beyond

i really hate in first dragon age how everything just plays out all together at once it's so chaotic and makes being tactical difficult. the first fun memories of that game by the way are when important people join your party. i would always strip them of all their gear expectign them to die or be removed from my party. so my early battles in that game were as a bunch of naked bandit beating up low level monsters

bioware was fun that's for sure

I tried to replay Dragon Age Origins recently and it doesn't hold up. It's just repetitive and like you say, the early battles got tiresome fast. I like the writing though, it has all the Bioware 2000s hallmarks.

KOTOR is of course the standard-bearer of all this. That they had to go into MMO bullshit direction with that still annoys me.

Do you think it will be good or a ruin like 3?

The setting will most likely be 1920s - 1930s, and the story will follow Sallieri's life. I really hope that will be the setting, mafia 3 was set too far in the future.

I like the first two games. Is Mafia 3 really that bad?

Never played 3 but I was one of those who hated 2. One of these games where the open world felt forced and empty, it had no reason to exist. I felt it was a nuisance that fucked with the pacing of an otherwise very linear game, already a quite slow cover based shooter.

I have been debating if I should get a GameCube or not. I have seen a few good gems on the system but a friend of mine told me not to bother because it's extremely expensive to get the system and some games he said. Is that true or not.

It really is a great game, I've spent hundreds of hours on the multiplayer doing coop and that part is better than goldeneye anyways. The missions… not so much. The castle level was great but after that I felt like it dropped off and became rather linear

unless i just missed out on all the good games the gamecube is not worth buying for the games alone
the games i played:
Star fox adventures
Spiderman 2
Smash bros: melee
mickey mouse game
mario party 5
mario strikers
luigis mansion
godzilla: destroy all monsters: MELEE
i think i had a digimon game at one point
a power rangers one too
Peter jackson's king kong
monkey ball
teenage mutant ninja turtles
and ones that are so insignificant i don't even want to post them

I had a gamecube setup and i only occasionally played a few games just out of intrigue and not much of it really holds up to me. basically what >>59702 said. I played star fox adventures a bit because i like the aesthetic of the game, liked king kong and i would say it's worth buying just for luigi's mansion but good luck finding a copy

honestly i have 100x more fun replaying the shit out of gears of war on the xbox 360 then i do any of the gamecube games. the gamecube is nothing but a feels machine whether its the mysterious and soothing menu screen or the small bits of nostalgia i get from a bygone era.

A new dragon's dogma will be released, what are you thoughts on it? expectations? fears?
For what I saw in the trailer, they wantes to make everything works so it will be super fluid but alas, the graphics don't catch up. (maybe with DD III or in a new generation).
I already played DD I but didn't like it. I hope the second one will be enjoyable

 No.60058

Will it have actual multiplayer? Don't remember where I heard it, maybe from someone here, but they said it was a salvaged MMO project. The way everything was designed, it really does seem that way. I didn't hate the game, but it wasn't anything special (though I think actual multiplayer would have made it a great experience). There isn't anything that would play quite like DD multiplayer that I know of. Vermintide seems more like Left 4 Dead or Deep Rock Galactic and open-world sandboxes don't really feature traditional classes, if they feature classes at all.

I played whatever that class was that maintains a weapon enchant and conjures then repeatedly smacks a large magic orb like it's a baseball so that it pelts enemies in front of you with tons of smaller orbs. Was really satisfying. Before that I played whatever the climbing class was. It was also decently fun to climb large enemies and stab their eye sockets or whatever miscellaneous weakspot they possessed.

dragon's dogma was awesome. i played in 2016 or 2017 for the first time and had a blast. i did not do any of the expansion stuff, wasn't interested. i thought the pseudo-multiplayer pawn system was dumb (reminded me of nintendo style online systems that are handicapped to the point of being suitable only for dumb babies). i liked the combat and the story, so a second dragon's dogma that provides nothing else but the same combat + new story would satisfy me

i hope for dd2 we are able to play as pawns for friends online, that's really my only wish. i'd like to play cooperatively with my brother

I want to share one of the best games I've ever played in my life, not only because of its aesthetics, but also because of its playability and the great content it offers, not only that, apart from being very accessible despite having low graphics (not to say shit) Runescape old school is one of those games that are little known, this game contains millions of stories, of Venezuelans earning a living to be able to eat selling runescape gold, from people who repeat the same action for 3 months in a row to be able to get 99 in a skill, and even people who pay in-game money so they can have a girlfriend. Runescape is huge and you don't stop finding new things every day, it's full of content and besides it's FREE… Up to a certain point since you can buy a membership and play the game 100%, since the free game is limited to certain things and certain sectors, but don't worry you can farm money from the game and buy a bond, which gives you 14 days of free membership, and if you know how to take advantage of them you will never have to spend real money to buy the membership. It's crazy what this game can be and I invite you to play it for free on steam, android, and iso. I don't know what my fellow virgins expect to be able to play this fantastic game

>i'm afraid people will make fun of me
Very unhealthy. There's no reason to expect anyone will make fun of you, and even if some vapid schizonigger does, there's even less of a reason to care. Mobile gaming is a huge industry and everyone your age probably does it or has done it at some point. Stop inventing stigmas in your mind and then being ashamed to do innocent things based on imaginary reactions from faceless strangers. You're not infringing on anyone's peace by tapping on your phone be it in a game or your picture gallery.

Used to play a bunch of chink gachas but got sick of them. East asian grinding + microtransaction + increasing hardware demand turned me away. The only one with good gameplay I played is Arknights, the rest are turn based auto battler trash. I also played Genshin on PC which has fun exploration but it'll probably look like shit on the phone. I heard succubi Frontline 2 will be an XCOM clone. Looks fun.

Wizzies who play or played a lot of MOBAs I summon.

In my gaming career I always kind of dodged them but lately they've been a good way to sink some time in to just manage to get at the end of the day and go to sleep instead of pressing F5 on imageboards or rotting the brain away watching youtube videos.

Right now I play related picture and playing ranked. I pretty much lose every game but I dont really care. I was just wondering whatever it will be always like this or maybe if I keep playing I will just naturally get better since I don't care about reading online on how to improve.

I peaked Diamond 1 99lp a few weeks ago (though I dropped a bit and I'm currently D3). To answer your question: You will not improve much at all if you keep playing a lot of games without thinking. And you will not improve much at all if you never read up resources online on how the game works.

Trust me, I was stuck in Gold and Plat for the past 3 seasons, if you're not tryharding improvement, you will not get anywhere. It's impossible. If you're playing for fun, that's fine, but if you want to actually get good, you need to start reading up online and taking notes on how the game objectively works and what the best plays are. You need to understand the "theory" behind how a League game works. Then, you need to start VOD reviewing every one of your games, listing all of the differences between you and the theoretical perfect performance, and consciously trying to fix bad habits as you play. Playing a lot of games might improve your mechanics, but it won't fix anything else. It's a waste of time.

By the way, just so you know, I would not recommend playing this game at all. My goal for this season was to get D4 by tryharding and then quit, but I got it within a month and a half of tryharding and I thought that Master tier would be doable… I regret it. This game is fucking horrible to play. I've wasted 800 games, about 400 hours of my life, in the past 4 months on this shit. And I am not having fun. Becoming better is slightly fulfilling and makes me happy, but that's about it. The game is not worth it, and if my mind wasn't forcibly preventing me from quitting until I reach my goal, I'd drop it immediately and go back to single player games. They're much more fulfilling and make me much more happy.

If you're new, quit as soon as you can.

This has to be the most frustraring updating experience imaginable…
Just to get this fucking patched properly.

I mean…
The game DOES play nicely Unpatched, but there will be content missing, since the DLC/FreeUpdate Bullshit started with the PS3.

Here we are!
As long as Sony, keeps the servers up and running and you got a ps3 + internet connection + GT6 disk = you can still go through the hassle of updating it, if you want to.

The only disadvantage of updating GT6, would be getting rid of the money glitch. ( only works unpatched! )

I want to play neotokyo° but no one plays it…there's this steam group that organize parties every weekends and gather together to play the game. I also want to do the same but with my fellow wizzies: I want to create a group on steam and schedule so american wizzies and europeans wizzies and aussies wizzies play all together, so we could all play together. I was thinking of sunday, no wizzies work on sunday

what do you think of my idea? I think it's a good idea

you first need to convince everyone why the game is worth playing

There used to be one group hosting games at certain times…. 10-12 people. It's not a great game, go heavy and just walk real slow slicing the pie around corners with an AR. Better game is Project Reality for miltactics and that's also kind of shit

I played the PS1 version when I was a kid. It was a fun game, but I never finished it.
On the other hand, the GBC version is a real gem. It's a weird hybrid between a stealth game and Pac-man.
