Thread for Gamers VIII: Revenge of the Sh**

If they pull a GTA Online I will riot. Well, not riot, but complain about it on Reddit, like everyone else. Functionally the same thing though.

Supposedly it’s going to be a survival RPG similar to Rust and DayZ.

Oh Jesus Christ, a friend on Facebook said that and I thought he was being a sarcastic dick :'(

You should know better by now. If it sounds absurd, chances of it actually being true have increased.

Bethesda: "What sells really well?"
Bethesda execs: "Battle Royale! Free-to-Play! LOOTBOXES"

Josh Sawyer, at a child's desk in the corner: "Y'know, Fallout New Vegas sold hugely well, Fallout fans want a rich story exp..."

Josh Sawyer gets black-bagged and beaten by North Koreans with baseball bats.

And only mild exaggerations were observed in that retelling.

Either parry-riposte is harder in DS:RM or I'm out of practice.

two hand ripostes are frame perfect but the servers are awful so you'll miss a bunch of them like i did to that guy with the claymore

I'm not even talking about PVP. Just sucking against some mooks I remember learning to riposteing well enough in the end. lol

So Phantom Pain is free on Xbox live. I’ve decided to try it out.

I’m very impressed, but this is my first metal gear game and I’m... sort of figuring out what’s going on?

I'm pretty sure even people who have played every Metal Gear game aren't sure what's going on.

I'm never sure what's going on.*

Ha. I got my first "You were hacking" sore loser accusation in Dead By Daylight. Feels good to job survivors so hard they accuse you of cheating.

If you have a PS3, I highly recommend buying every main-series Metal Gear game. The HD Collection, which includes 2, 3, and Peace Walker (which probably isn't worth your time) is also on the 360.
I like MGSV more than the common hardcore fan, but it doesn't have the charm of the first 4 games.

Oh, and play Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. It's sick. It's radical. It makes you forget that Revengeance isn't even a word.

I am enjoying Phantom Pain, so I’ll probably try to get into the rest of the series. I was definitely thinking of the HD collection, since I have a 360.

Should I also get Ground Zeroes? I know it’s a huge part of Phantom Pain’s story, but I’ve heard people complain it’s too short.

I remember hearing about Revengeance when it was new. I remember thinking to myself “This is a stealth series?” I do like sneaking through things, so would you still recommend that game since I know it’s more action filled?

Play 1, 2, 3, 4, MGR, and look up the rest. GZ is a fun game, but it was basically a demo for PP. And PW is just too long. Way too long.

If you like PlatinumGames, cutting through robots with a katana, and a BANGING SOUNDTRACK, then I recommend it.
Stealth is unimportant. Guns are boring. You’re a cyborg.
It’s great.

I should probably actually finish MGS1 one of these days. Despite being a huge fan of the series, I never beat it.

[The first Galactic Republic]

Truly the most ambitious crossover.

Thanks for the suggestions.

I don’t have the modern PlayStation consoles if that puts a dent in things though.

Unfortunately, MGS4 is PS3 exclusive. You don’t need to play that in order to understand 5 or Rising, but it’s more-or-less the end of the story.

You better not be a Nurse main, because I swear to god I'll come out of your computer screen and delete your Steam if you are.
Then again, I'm a nurse main. Carry on.

What did I just saw?

Also I just checked to Power Rangers : Legacy Wars ( a mobile Power Rangers game released to accompany that 2017 Power Rangers movie) just got the additions of Akuma, Chun-Li, and Ryu.

No Street Fighter-based zord, though.

Hillbilly main, actually. Nurse is actually my least played.
