Bioshock boys: lettuce prepare ourselves for the 2023 GOTY

[silkforcalde]

so bros i think i may beat my first newish resident evil game(re7)

i powered through my shook boi feelings and according to the ign guide table of contents(i’m using no guide just wanted to see how far along i am) i’m at roughly the halfway point, maybe a bit past it

the anxiety wore off and now i’m sort of decked out with ammo and repaired guns and shit and now if i see one of those duke monsters i blast a mfer and just keep on going.

for me, having never played one all the way through, the problem solving and puzzles are fun as shit. reminds me loosely of how zelda works. you come across a gap you can’t cross or a door you can’t enter and pass it about fifty times and you finally get the item and now you’re sort of giddy to see what’s behind this previously blocked area

super cool experience. i may just play 8 after this or another free one if it’s available

you PC gaming? iirc you're a console peasant but in the off chance you aren't you can get RE2 + RE3 remakes for $15 on steam right now

RE2 remake is fantastic, it includes most of the original content but sadly does not do the B playthrough nearly as well as the original version. RE3 cuts half the content for some unknown reason and is stupidly short which makes it double down on the "glorified expansion pack" feeling RE3 already had but it's still fun. just could've been so much better.

Village is on sale too for $20



I liked Village more than VII.

also if you never played it, you could probably get The Evil Within 1 for cheap and that was a survival horror masterpiece from the same director as RE1 and RE4, Shinji Mikami.

you'll know you're approaching the end of RE VII when it goes from horror movie to action movie.

i wonder how much capcom pays for bullshit like this

Resident Evil 3's Brevity Is Its Greatest Strength

Resident Evil 3 is awfully short for a AAA game, even if it's survival horror, yet its brevity is ultimately its greatest strength.

and thank god bc once i finished hogwarts i probably started and bailed on at least 5 diff games bc none of them held my attention or i was just momentarily fatigued i guess

relationship ENDED with hogwarts
RE7 is new boyfriend

 

[ostinato]

Personally like RE7 a lot. Some awesome characters and the house setting is so great.

Might be the first person perspective. I'd laugh if someone said RE4 was too scary

I'm in this boat right now. Finished Hogwarts, fired up Wo Long last night. It's cool and all, I played a little bit and beat another boss. But it's not really grabbing me. the fact that RE4make is right around the corner is also probably subconsciously preventing me from getting invested into anything else right now. Might just mess around with VR stuff for the next week or so.

Nothing has been holding my attention lately too, the only thing I've been playing the last couple of weeks has been Vampire Survivors

y'all should play Marvel's Midnight Suns, it's fuckin TITE

I bought Nier Replicant from the steam spring sale, hopefully playing as a robot wearing lingerie will break me out of my funk

System Shock remake comes out May 30th!

I kinda want to pre-order it still so I can get SS2 Enhanced for free, since it's gonna have VR support

I literally threw up in my mouth just reading the link's embed. RE3 wasn't a terrible game, but boy fuckin' howdy is it a letdown over 2's remake.








One of these things is not like the others. Its still hard to believe that 8 is that short. Goddamn I gotta go back and do a lot of achievements for 5.

 

[Sphygmo]

What the fuck how are you spending that much time on those games lol

Gotta get those achievements. I didnt just play them one time

Huh. I feel like 20 in each is plenty lol

 

[GRattu]

I tried getting the platinum in RE8, some of those trophies are just senseless padding

MotherFUCK achievements

[deadbeef]

All this talk of RE has convinced me to get RE8 for PSVR2. I've never played a Resident Evil game before.

you’re 💯 correct about this lol

just officially beat my first resident evil game bros

went to Costco today — this bundle was on sale for 649. Seems really good if you’re looking for one
