I was interested in the original Brigador because of the setting and art style but the game itself kicked my ass and I imagine this will do the same.

Much less based on vehicle combat if you can believe it, game is hard but the AI is kind of retarded because I assume it's in an early state. The campaign "demo" is extremely short and only gives a taste of the wider game, the scavenger mode is great fun, stealing supplies and living out the insurgent terrorist fantasy they're selling with the sequel is really fun. Even if you struggled I still highly recommend you give it a shot.
 
The discourse around that Mixtape game is so fucking annoying.

"Who are you to decide what is and isn't a game? Isn't art subjective?"

Yes it is, but at certain point you're telling me a frog is an elephant and that's both objectively wrong and insulting to my intelligence.
 
Anyone here tried the new game Motorslice? I bought it since I had sort of followed the development, but I have been too busy to try it. Looks like a mix of Mirror's Edge, Shadow of the Colossus, and Nier Automata. Seems like it has positive reviews but was just curious if anyone had tried it.

Remember, they did everything right, too. James Bond is already playing second fiddle to diversity recasts of the rest of the cast AND I'm pretty sure he has a black female handler to remind the player every few minutes that you can't risk white men getting uppity or forgetting their place.

Everything right and they still have to die. Amazing that people still aren't learning the lesson of what it means to be an "ally" with the left.

It's funny, isn't it? Even when they make the White male indulgence fantasy directly antithetical to White men, it still isn't enough. It shows that you just shouldn't even try to placate them to begin with.

This is probably the worst fucking thing that managed to poison any discourse about video games. Sick and tired of this bullshit. Games are first and foremost products and need to be evaluated as such. Reviews are not think pieces or even worse opinions, they are meant to objectively evaluate if a game works as intended or not. And since this simple notion somehow got lost we have been blessed for years with broken games left and right. But its art so it's okay if its doesn't work, just a statement about how bad capitalism is or some other insane babble.

There are of course other metrics that make up games, and they can transcend just being mere products, but this is the cherry on top not the baseline.
 
i've been playing a lot of noita recently and the whole alchemy part of it is pissing me off. am i supposed to just dump all my potions into a pit to see what happens? hard to get to that point when the odds of me getting something that can heal myself are already really fucking low
it's still fun but holy fuck i hate getting noita'd

I'm so tired of the bullshit "video games are art". They are expensive toys.
(Broteam clip so expect it to be loud)

 
Been trying to play Farever, and I'm getting the network issues I expected out of an online game. It's a good bit of fun when it works properly, but thanks to Gumbloodwallman it apparently got picked up by, like, an additional ten thousand people. Devs say they only expected 5k at most, so shit is going down constantly and there are huge rollbacks (inconsistent. I had my character roll back an hour or so, but some streamers apparently had their level 20s rolled back to the starting zone lmao).
The perfect block system is fun when the networking is working, but that's not particularly common right now.
