Weekly post
I mainly play lost ark and convergence mod Elden ring. Been playing lost ark since kr. Moved to na on launch the game is a blast!
I’m playing Skyrim for the millionth time. I finally broke down and tried the stealth archer build. I’m more of a run in and kill it girl, so it’s completely new to me.
I’m playing Nier Replicant now. I’ve played the original on PS3 and it feels weird that the protagonist changed from a large, grumpy dad to a small sweet child taking care of his sister.
Completely changing the protagonist in the original release is such a weird choice. And had to have been so much extra work.
Really I didn’t know that. Doesn’t that completely change the story?
The change was done to appeal to western audiences who they said would like a gruff older man better, so it was only dialogue changes that were done all over to account for this. The story is otherwise the same. But yes the character dynamics change a lot when the hero goes from like a 15 year old to someone around 40.
I only just met Kaine, but she’s a companion who is around 20 years old, which obviously makes a big difference whether she’ll palling around with a teen or a much older man. I look forward to seeing how the writing her changes.
Oh right I do remember reading something about this. A similar situation but it wasn’t get appeal to Western audience was Metal Gear Soild 2. The whole reason Raiden was created was because Hideo Kojima conducted a survey among Japanese women. One respondent said she was tired of the main characters being “stupid old men”.
My girlfriend and I are playing Pokemon Scarlet and Violet together. I’ve always wanted to play co-op in a Pokemon game with another person so I’m glad that feature is finally available ^^
I’m playing Deus Ex and the story is really captivating
The original Deus Ex changed how I saw story telling in video games. Now says it’s not that ground breaking but when it first came out it changed everything.
I had a similar experience with Deus Ex Human Revolution :) I got sucked into the world and now I plan to play all the entries (and started the oldest one).
I am currently playing The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild :3
My partner has gone back to Breath of the Wild. They said they actually prefer the more discovery feel of the open world and thinks TotK is a little to packed.
Yes, I also heard something about that, and that there are many more side missions, but exaggerated xD but I don’t like to see spoilers for the games I want to play, so I don’t know much more
i’m also playing this currently! lol the hype for TOTK got me convinced to play and I love it.
Haha, me too, I wanted to play it for a long time and the ads on TV from the new game gave me enough hype to finally start playing this one and I’m liking it a lot :D
oh gosh, tik tok has literally been showing me all the things you can do with TOTK and i’m like man, i gotta try out botw before diving into that one!
I’ve gone back to Tears of the Kingdom.
I need to finish last few urgent quest in monster hunter rise sunbreak before quitting and playing skyrim.
I haven’t played that much monster hunter. What makes the quest urgent?
If the pannel are red that’s an urgent quest. It will connect to the story.
I just got Jack Jeanne. It’s really good so far.
Final Fantasy XIV, just started Stormblood. I’ve been leveling Machinist and Red Mage.
Gunfire Reborn, it’s addictive and has a red panda character now.
Oh Jack Jeanne looks very interesting. A story driven rhythm games!!!
