Rhom Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Stick of Truth is in the running for best licensed game ever imo. Agreed.I will say that what happens at the end of the first day still stands out in my mind as one of the most entertaining sequences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasta11 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Some of the stuff towards the end of the game is way grosser, though possibly not funnier. One piece of advice is to do the side-quests and collectables sooner rather than later. The end of the game comes up fairly abruptly. You can keep playing after the ending to finish off loose ends, but that feels a little anticlimactic as the ending is so epic. Pillars of Eternity is completely off-the-wall bonkers in its own way. There's a 15-level mega-dungeon which apparently can take 10 hours by itself complete, which is almost as big as South Park in its entirety. Holy moly, does it really? Looks like they put that backer money to good use. Of course, hopefully the combat system is up to par to justify such a long trek. Obsidian kinda have a history of boasting way better writing than gameplay. They're kinda like the anti-Blizzard at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aceluby Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 There's a preload option for digital pre orders on PSN, so you should be able to play right at midnight. That'll totally screw up my sleep schedule though. I have to work on Wed still and typically go to bed early and wake up early for work. So instead of screwing that all up I'm planning on going to bed at my regular time, getting up at 5am, working out, and then starting my first game.

Proudfeet Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Finished a game of Civ via cultural victory. I knew I'd won so I declared war on my arch-rivals about 15 turns from the end, which left me just enough time to destroy their navy utterly and nuke their capital (which was disappointingly ineffective). For some reason haven't yet got any achievements from my session today, though I definitely should have earned a few. My mouse is on the fritz right now so I won't bother with Tomb Raider (which I was going to play), perhaps I'll play some XCOM instead. I think the expansions for Civ V are on sale for the weekend if you want to get them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Independent George Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I think the expansions for Civ V are on sale for the weekend if you want to get them.The expansions for Civ V are awesome. I actually thought the vanilla game was a step backwards from IV, but the expansions brought it back again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clueless Northman Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Pillars of Eternity is completely off-the-wall bonkers in its own way. There's a 15-level mega-dungeon which apparently can take 10 hours by itself complete, which is almost as big as South Park in its entirety.They had stretch goals for that monstrosity. Such a feature is the perfect definition of "old-school RPG" if I ever saw one :) I mean, this looks like it'll be bigger (and more insane) than Durlag's Tower in BG or the Severed Hand in IWD...

Fiddler Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 HOLY CRAP! MERCIFUL GOD, HOLY EVERLOVING CRAP!!! I'm playing South Park: The Stick of Truth. It's running on my desktop right now as I type this on my laptop. I had to stop, because... because... my character, Ser Douchebag, is... he's... He's fighting the underpants gnomes while his parents have loud, athletic, wild animal sex in the background to the sound of 70s porno music. I have no words. I am without words. I was getting a little bored with the gameplay, which is not optimized for keyboard & mouse, but then... that. Holy crap. I don't know if I can go back to the game, because as soon as I sit down in front of my computer, I start laughing and can't stop. I can't remember the last time I laughed this hard. I'm just... in awe of this achievement. I say without exaggeration that this might well be the single greatest moment in video gaming history. ETA: I was wrong. I was so, so wrong. Whatever celestial peak I had previously thought this game had ascended to, has just been surpassed. By an entire light year. I just dodged my father's scrotum, in Matrix-styled slow motion, during my battle against the underpants gnome wizard. I can't take it anymore. That cannot possibly be topped, can it? I'm no longer worried about any unrealistic expectations for Pillars of Eternity. There's just no way in hell they can surpass the sheer, over-the-top awesomeness of that single scene. I understand your reaction so very well. I laughed for a good hour at that whole sequence. South Park was the first game I have ever started and played all the way through, right after beating it. It was my favorite game that year and easily one of my favorite all time. Stayed so true the source material that it felt like playing an episode.

aceluby Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Capra Demon is a jerkass. Still not as bad as Fume Knight though. Yeah, that one is really rough. I didn't do it w/out help, and would expect that it take me even longer than the DS1 DLC bosses (which were about 4 hours each...). I spent a few hours before just waiting for summons.

Crom Dubh Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I think I died no less than forty times the first time I tried to kill Fume Knight, no joke. The second character, I just wore the lightest armor possible, because he hits so hard that armor generally doesn't matter, and used a +5 Dark Sacred Chime Hammer with Dark Clutch Ring and Flynn's Ring. Was able to kill him much more easily due to the insane damage from that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
