    You are legitimately retarded. The point you made was that it was good and it was important in tandem with other shit, hence parahrased as "great and essential". I preserved the meaning of what you said, and you got hung up on the the casual use of the word 'great' you malcontent dumb fuck...

    Paraphrasing you dunce. "buh I didn't use exact word" :retarded: You just described the exact scenario where it's still of value. 2 shots to the head for the kill, one shot in the leg gets them down and crawling, shooting 1 in an arm disables zombie grab. You have [x] handgun bullets and you...

    Resident Evil 2 Remake

    jfc, there's a hard cap to how 'mechanically interesting' they can be, because they're zombies straight from the fucking 80s and then you add bullet sponge in a TPS, to make them shit on top of being generic not like the zombies were amazing in the old games neither, REmake/0's grey zombie...

    Resident Evil 2 Remake

    Lol, as I said, the shit element gets rationalised as great and essential. Zombies playing possum and twitch grabs have 0 to relation with their HP. You went and lumped 'em together to prop it up. Lowering resources and their HP would literally be a net 0 for how much easier they would become...

    Resident Evil 2 Remake

    People complained the old games were bullet spongy, but there was atleast a layer of abstraction in that you didn't have that much control where you were aiming, while the pinpoint TPS aiming keeping the HP bloat makes REmake2 feel quintessentially like dogshit. Here's a novel idea, decrease...

    Resident Evil 2 Remake

    REmake/0 Remastereds' sales blow that one out of the water. If nobody gave a shit, they wouldn't have sold well at all. REmake's rerelease sold better than RE4-6's rereleases for this gen. REmake2 done that way would have done exactly as well as the TPS version, and people would be talking about...

    Trigger the codex with a statement.

    Ebert gave Phantom Menace and Revenge of Sith 3.5/4 stars.

    Resident Evil 2 Remake

    AI's only scary if you're a racist that's scared of getting face-raped by an anthropomorhpic black penis. That's true for the xenomorph itself, which hasn't been scary since 1980. Otherwise, the game is a nice looking but really boring Amnesia knockoff. Then again, RE was only scary because...

    Resident Evil 2 Remake

    Okay, as far as I could find, RE3 was originally a thing with Hunk on a boat. They got a PS2 SDK and cancelled this version to work on a PS2 game instead. RE0 and CV were both already in development prior/during this. Mikami then greenlit a smaller sequel to RE2 on PS1 which is Nemesis, and the...

    Assassin's Creed Odyssey, set in ancient Greece - it's definitely an RPG now

    You have it backwards, ACB started the annualisation, abhorrent pacing, Uncharted 2 style setpieces, exceedingly disjointed writing and overabundance of time wasting side content AC became a joke for. It's the game that introduced facebook time waiting management shit with the assassin recruits...

    Dragon Age Dragon Age: Origins is ten years old today

    DA2 is novel when described in one sentence. Execution of said idea quickly reveals itself to be garbage while playing the game. Saying DAO is 'generic' is hardly meaningful critique, because it ignores the fact that the execution of it is decent to good for the most part, while the novelty of...

    Eh, seems like a waste, but suit yourself.

    Diablo IV

    Shadenuat Just noticed you don't have Horadric Cube in your inventory. You should always have it with you, it adds 8 extra slots worth of space.

    Diablo IV

    I think only Tal Rasha's tomb does that. It's a small square room with a one way entrance that dumps an act boss on you out of nowhere. 'Looking for Baal?' They turned Duriel into a fatty. He used to be a jacked up bug demon with a sixpack.
