@RogerRoger@nessisonett it's not that the speed runs are difficult for the trophy, it's when you go online and see how fast some people can do some of those runs! That and when one of your friends does a faster run, you get notified and with the speed of the ssd, you can launch that speedrun straight from the notification to gazump them! It's terribly addictive
This weekend i am still playing fenyx rising and i bought dirt 5 and thats pretty damn good too..bit of a throw back to the sega rally/daytona arcade style racing..there was one event where i could have sworn i was playing buggy boy..wow maybe that was the alzheimers kicking in..
Iām onto Wednesday now in Disco Elysium Final Cut. It really is a masterpiece. Iām rocking quite the set of thoughts, including Inexplicable Feminist Agenda, Magnesium-Based Lifeform and Homosexual Underground. I tried being a Communist following the teachings of Kras Mazov but it was just depressing my guy to the point that it was negatively affecting gameplay.
After a couple better days, I sucked at MK11 again On a positive note, I now got a specific thing I know I need to lab in practice mode.
Also I guess I can say I got promoted to a higher rank 3 times today (nobody needs to know that I also got demoted 3 times )
Disco Elysium has far more Scooter references than I remember. Call Me MaƱana is literally a Scooter song and pretty much everything that comes out of Egg Headās mouth is a Scooter lyric. Odd but welcome. A personal favourite is āskibadee skibadanger, I am the rearrangerā.
@nessisonett When I first read that, I immediately thought of Scooter from Borderlands, instead of the cheesy dance group. Just shows how long since I've listened to them.
Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing them to fail.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
I started Spider-Man Remastered a day or so ago. I hope to be spending more time with it over the weekend, but I'm also in the process of moving this month, so we'll see whether I manage to fit it into my schedule.
As a fan of platformers, movement has always been very important for me in videogames and this game is all about that. Some things are still a bit weird, like not being able to simply hang from a leg when sneaking (?) or maybe I just need to figure out how that works. But in general I love the movement, sense of speed and how Spider-Man innovates on the Batman combat system by implementing verticality in combat.
Also, New York City looks so nice. I didn't expect this game to look as good as it does. It's amazing how relatively colorful they made NYC too. But most impressive is probably that I didn't witness any pop in so far, while traveling the city at enormous speed.
I'm a small time Spider-Man fan (I read the comics for about three years), and so far I think the game handles its series legacy somewhat better than Batman. The games for the latter were "the Joker releases all villains", which was a useful plot device in Arkham Asylum, but felt a bit forced in the latter games. Anyway, I of course have no idea which way the Spider-Man story is going, so maybe I should not get ahead of myself just yet.
What do I dislike? The fact that they included Copeland's radio broadcasts from Days Gone into this game, disguised as JJ podcasts. "Don't believe the lies!"
you can turn the podcasts off in the options menu. just "unsubscribe" from JJ's podcast.
Having been the game that originally killed my console off, I was going to play it next having finished Ratchet and Clank but it had fallen off my home menu after installing other games (seriously, what's with such a terrible UI on the home screen??). Bizarrely, it was then showing up as installed but I couldn't play it so I've had to delete the game and am waiting for it to re-download now.
At least it seems like it will finally be worth it!
@RogerRoger I just wondered whether playing on performance mode would downscale the pics Iām sure Iāll be getting in Spider-Man: MM!
And Iāve played a fair bit of Astro now. Itās only 10GB which took about half an hour to re-download. It was just a bit strange that it had ādisappearedā. A brilliantly charming game and I love it when I recognise the game the bots are play acting!
Today was a good day for Kombat. Unfortunately it's probably not enough to make it to the next rank (unless I can hit a streak of like 8 wins tomorrow)
@Thrillho If I'm not mistaken, Spider-Man goes into the fidelity mode for photo mode even if you're playing in performance mode.
@RogerRoger@mookysam@Voltan Thanks folks. Good to know Roger won't be taking shots prettier than mine (allowing for his superior artistic flair anyway).
@Thrillho Did you pass the check for the tie to speak to you? I didnāt have enough points in my purple stats this time round to get it but the tie helps narrate the game if you do.
@nessisonett Ha, no. I didnāt even know that was a thing!
I went for the thinker route for my first go and havenāt got all that far. One thing is how tiny the text seems to be and the option to increase the size doesnāt actually seem to do anything?
