Tried it last night, it was pretty good. Art direction on the Genados is interesting, but I’m still not really a fan of babyface Leon. so far it looks like they’ve changed a bunch of stuff up just to fuck with returning players, I was caught off guard a few times.
Combat takes some getting used to, even with sensitivity turned all the way up aim felt a little sluggish, it felt inconsistent on when enemies were stunned and you could melee them or not. The new knife system is cool but it seems like the durability runs out way too fast.
Overall I’m definitely looking forward to it, RE4 is one of my favorite games and I think Capcom is overall doing a pretty good job with Resident Evil for now. I still submit that RE4 doesn’t need a remake. Try it if you want, it’s really short
Body type A/B.
Preferred Pronoun choice in character creator.
Koei Tecmo is pozzed.
Demo is pretty fun though…
Howdy partners!
Since the year is closing out and this is still (ostensibly) a gaming board I thought it might be kind of fun to talk about what we played this year, what our GOTY was, the biggest disappointments, etc.
I didn’t really purchase many new AAA titles this year, I think Elden Ring and The Callisto Protocol were it. Of the two Elden Ring met my expectations and was excellent, and TCP was monumentally disappointing.
I spent most of my gaming budget on indie titles this year, and while I loved Elden Ring it was narrowly edged out by Infernax as my Game of the Year. Infernax was a huge surprise for me, I don’t usually expect much from the indie-retro-nostalgia bait but it blew me away. A love letter to classic NES titles like Castlevania 2, Link’s Adventure, and Faxanadu, it combines gorgeous pixel art with a banger of a soundtrack and a fun story with multiple endings and unlockable characters and I can’t recommend it enough.
A close second would be Cultic; some people have complained that Boomer Shooters are reaching over saturation by now but I play the shit out of every one and I think Cultic is the best of the lot. The shortest way to describe it would be Blood crossed with Resident Evil 4; you’re a cop fighting a crazed cult and demonic monsters in the seventies, there’s a fun arsenal of upgradable weapons, cool levels to explore, and a shitload of monsters to kill, everything a fps ahould have in other words, go nuts.
As far as what I thought sucked ass The Callisto Protocol is the only big letdown I can think of, and I’ve bitched about it enough so now I want to hear what you guys have been playing, what surprised you, disappointed you, and what you recommend.
Cheers all, and have a Happy New Year!
Well I just beat it and it sucks ass.
