You just start seeing all the dominoes coming together and it feels very Hitman-esque, so having the end-game being linear when the middle section of the game feels so open and rife with possibilities takes a bit of wind out of my sails. I still love the game, don't get me wrong. I just thought the game was something it isn't and that's just as much on me for thinking that's where the game was going to go because if it did that it would be like GOTG contention for me. If I hadn't heard so much praise for it I probably wouldn't have that expectation, so it's not the game's fault. That’s fair. A lot of the hype is probably not warranted. I just felt right at home with it, kind of like I did with Hades. This is not really a genre I typically like, yet both games had me hooked. Maybe a sequel will keep things more open. It’s a great suggestion! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Teh_Diplomat 2,054 Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 Waaay to much Hell Let Loose. Might be the most demanding and rewarding experience as a game that I've faced; it certainly does have some bugs, and shortcomings; but I've seen previous fixes that resolved performance issues so I'm confident they will get resolved (after all new update just released). But as a designed product, its intent, its presentation just sublime Pretty good summation here: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. House 3,371 Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Almost 30 hours in Wasteland 3, finally caught up to my original game in the PS4 version. It's probably my favorite WRPG since Fallout: New Vegas and I've played almost every major RPG that came out since. It does the factions politics and story choices/consequences as good as New Vegas, if not even a tad better. I'm absolutely loving this game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It’s still got some annoying bugs and I wish the ending weren’t so anti-climatic, but other than that it’s a very solid game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty smooth experience for me so far. Never crashed once and didn't see any major bug. The performance is uneven though, had to lower the graphics setting mid-game, everything was fine until I reached the Gippers area weirdly enough. Now I'm running the game at 90fps so it's fine. The PS4 version at launch in comparison was borderline unplayable. Which is why I never finished the game in the first place. This game has everything I love in RPGs. That SRPG combat system is so fucking good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That SRPG combat system is so fucking good. There were a few times where I would clear out all the enemies in an encounter but I would still be stuck in the combat state, so the next story/quest event wouldn't trigger and I would have to restart. Could be very frustrating especially when it happened after a tough battle. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

madmaltese★ 2,549 Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Yeah It Takes Two has been terrific so far. Still relatively early it seems and yet already had so much variety in it's environments and mechanics. Love the premise too and the co op aspects are an integral part of the game. So far it's living up to all the buzz. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

-GD-X★ 7,729 Posted January 1, 2022 Author Share Posted January 1, 2022 Put in 3 more hours into It Takes Two with @madmaltese. It definitely deserves GOTY. Some of the levels blew my fucking mind! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmaltese★ 2,549 Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Yeah, It Takes Two is legit. Worthy of every award it gets. One of the most unique and varied games I've played. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

-GD-X★ 7,729 Posted January 3, 2022 Author Share Posted January 3, 2022 We put another two hours into it takes 2. The campaign is way longer than expected and, somehow, continues to get better. Simply amazing! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
