They fixed the lack of enemy variety from the first game, but I really wish they got someone else to handle the actual placement of enemies. Going through story missions especially is such a chore because it's just full of backstabbing ambushes and high ground projectile spammers just to try to slow you down. It makes everything so tedious.
>>545974242You absolutely do not have to grind anything twice in ng.Just playing everything once is more than enough if you aren't a complete moron who just scraps all his gear.
>>545974242Absolutely. Build and loot autism doesn't even matter until around NG++ anyway. NG is very long by itself and you can mess around with weapons, armour, onmyo and ninjitsu at your leisure. Though its probably better to focus on one or two weapons. I've never done NG+ in the first Nioh because the game is so long. I got to the final level and quit.
>>545974284Nice dodge.
>>545974160Guess I'll try to get A toughness. I currently have C toughness
>>545974441It's bugged on 120 fps, if you lock to 60 it becomes much less aggressive

>>545974175True. PC is King.
>>545974392now if only we had non shit handheld/laptops that can run vidya decently for more than an hour. Honestly the only reason I have a switch is because of Nintendo licenses and portability.
>>545974346HZD would be their biggest seller but it didn't sell that much and already dead.
>>545974303If Phil really was brought in to kill Xbox. He's doing a terrible job at it considering six of their games were on Steam's top seller list last year.

>>545973539Hawke was supposed to be a bloodmage and that was a brand he wore in combat to symbolize ityou can even see him smear blood on his nose in one of the earliest trailers but the plot got dropped since the game it's an rpg and the player is supposed to choose it's path, it looked cool so they left it in promo art
>>545967981thank you old man
>>545968164she looks like she helps herself with to lots of hamburgers though so it is kind of fitting
How comfy are your starter islands, bros?

Where should I make some kind of "main"-ish base? I've found a couple of abandoned settlements infested by Draugrs that could work as some kind of outpost for my friends but I don't really know
>>545974436I'd personally always go for meadows since it's safe-ish, smaller outposts wherever points of interests may be.
>>545974436in meadows, near shore (not too close as the tide can get pretty high) and near black woods, preferably scout the black woods to make sure it has tin and copper
>>545972435>Not having a forge port base linked to a teleporter that's also close to your primary storage hub that is also accessible to teleportersanon, you're literally NGMI
Have you been blessed by the RNG adeptus yet? First lazurite gemstone drop, AR55.There was also an in game player survey asking if people want the tower defense game to become more fleshed out and added to the game normally.
>Some people got 288
>>545973886>>545973919Welp. So I guess I'll see more when I actually claim the shit ingame?Also, top-level engineering there, miHoYo. It's not like you kept asking for the god-damn server and character every single time I logged into any of the events...
>>545974374No, they didn't split it evenly. So far I've seen>108>188>288Dunno what the fuck they're doing, maybe trying to hide player numbers or something because I'd imagine you could easily see how many active players they have but now it's impossible.Regardless people should be complaining about this shit.
and /pol/ server got just 88
>>545968374Inazuma never fucking ever never. If the leaks are true that 1.4 doesn't even have anything new besides Rosaria, then I really might just take an extended break from this game.
What's the most evil, wicked, cruel, or diabolical thing you've ever done in a video game?

>>545970314i just can't fathom why square thought this was ever a good idea
>>545972230use the specialk patch then, fixes frame pacing (if you use it to cap FPS) and stuttering caused by the game switching between k/b and controller inputs when both are plugged in at the same time

>>545973018>>545973373Russian tanks were OP irl too retards
russian bias hasn't been real in years.chinese bias is real.germans overperform though and french and italian time traveling racecars are annoying as hell
>>545974170they need something to stretch out the tech tree for the people who stick with the game past the ww2 era>>545974276yeah I always have to wonder about armour slope. They claim they put all this extra calculations in account for ricochets and angle of hit. But then im like, weren't ruskie tanks all famed for using the sloped armour very early on? German tanks often have a big flat front plate thats begging to be hit.
>>545974518Is the game good now? Or is it still a massive grind?
>>545974402German players are braindead though.
What's your breaking point? When do you accept that they've fucked FF7 beyond repair?

>Mental WealthWhat’s wrong with Sony’s commercials?
They were made this way to make you talk about them, it worked so well that it still occurs.
>>545973449i dont remember any of them at all and I was into consoles back then
They were fucking great, all their commercials and ads were about being able to experience an alternative world with different rules. They were creative and interesting. Modern day commercials fucking suck

What are ya playan?I've started Persona 5 on RPCS3 and the 60fps patch makes cutscenes all janky. Is this fixable or I either have to live with it or switch to 30fps ?Can someone explain to me the difference between Yuzu and Ryujinx ? I'd like to try out smash ultimate or Link's Awakening. Which would be the best emulator to use?
>>545973816Does it though? I remember playing multiplayer with my friend on the same keyboard on Smash N64 we had a blast
>>545970401Why wouldn't you buy a used 60$ used ps3 at this pointUsed games are like 2$ to 5$ too....
>>545972184>Demon's Souls has an internal technique where it will output duplicate frames if the games performance is not at the FPS cap. This makes the FPS counters report that the game is running at 30FPS (or 60FPS) at all times while the actual performance could be 15FPS as the game is outputting duplicate frames if your performance is too low. This is not a bug, its just an unfortunate result of how Demon's Souls works.
>>545974443Dont have space, dont want to own a console, PS3 is unplayable for me etc

lets have a desktop thread. it's a long while since we had one on /v/. the more video game shortcuts the better.

>>545973873>>545973942>>545974360There is no white in the middle it is literally not tranny flag.
I never see my desktop because I at least always have a web browser open and launch stuff with Launchy on Windows or dmenu on nix. So here's my wp>>545972508this is probably the dumbest post i've seen on /v/ all weekwell done
I don't know what is with my autism, but i really like pattern wallpapers
How are we all doing on day 1?It took me an hour to beat the Graveyard. Had to drop difficulty once (from Legend to Knight) and I think I died like 40-50 times. I lost count of my deaths trying to beat Vineyard on Legend; I gave up wholesale and started a new file on Knight. Died 35 times before I beat it. I'm enjoying myself, but this game is looking to be pretty exhausting. I don't think I can take any more of Legend difficulty.
>>545973979Army of Zin wasn't nearly as good as Maximo 1 yeah but pretty average is selling it pretty short. Still a high game in the series overall. Fighting soul powered robots is awesome.
>>545949343I bumped it down to baby mode to try to learn the levels a bit in peace lol.The game is comfy AF
>>545974238well we have one bitch in this topic at least. So who knows?
>the torch with the golden armourOh my oh my. Maybe I should use the torch more.
>>545974405>baby modeFair enough does the wizards at least turn you into a form fitting for playing baby mode?
> Your GOTY 2021Yeah, I'm thinking Xbox is back.
>>545973864>its funit's fun*, because why?
>>545973064>You're not a Halo fan
>>545974059Every single argument in those videos have been posted here, just not as well formulated and without all the necessary context. You either ignored those arguments or you never properly acknowledged that those were valid reasons why people dislike the things H4 and H5:G do, and wish for more things like the classic games. There's legitimate reasons why people dislike sprint and it has caused damage to the game because of that. The videos were posted because they explain all these things properly.
>>545974146>Staten>saving Halo aloneJoe is an senior creative director for Microsoft that overseas Xbox games like Crackdown 3, which btw turned to be shit.https://www.zippia.com/senior-creative-director-jobs/what-does-a-senior-creative-director-do/
>>545974394>zoomer wojakyou are confirming his point.
I got filtered right herefuck this game
>>545970915thats a valid point actually. even the original had dark parts of maps or even whole levels, but it stuck out because rest was fairly well lit.Medical is actually one of the brightest floor originally, so if you make it look like this, how will the other "real" dark places look??
>>545972378noticed they have a real trouble with "stopping" things. and its been pretty consitent flaw in all demos, so they should work on that
>>545930832>.jpgfucking retard fuck
>>545973657What about this?
>>545935678Yeah well normalfags obviously think otherwise don't they?
Now that the dust has settled, what do you think of Ghost of Tsushima? https://youtu.be/M0a1mxQ6VdU?t=56Don't post if you haven't actually played it, nintendies.
>>545973223Very fun combat that doesn’t get boring, too many fox shrines, We should’ve been able to kill that female archer that went rogue but he spared her just because of a sob story, the Khan was chad, didn’t care about the horses death
>>545973993>didn’t care about the horses deathYou bastard
Games set on islands tend to avoid awful fucking bloat at least and that makes it better than every AC game by itself.
>>545973993I'm 90% certain the next game will revolve around her. Only reason to keep her alive and send her to the mainland
finally got around to playing it. it's pretty but man does it get boring. once you play it for a couple hours, you've pretty much played the whole game. turns into a gigantic check list like most open world games. theres really nothing to do outside of any of the tasks
FF7R confirmed flop
