Im a sucker for games that take place in DC (unfortunately the map does not include my office). So far I haven't had time to dig in, seems pretty solid from what I have seen. I played it for a week and never came back. Unfortunately this is another one of those games that makes you grind like a no-lifer and seemed too reliant on co-op. The DC map is really cool though. They mapped my neighborhood pretty much 1:1, even getting the small businesses right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My office is just on the north side of K street. 🤬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might give it another go, even though I think it's really difficult to grind through this game solo. Game looks gorgeous on PC, but after playing for a week and seeing that I barely moved in the story was kind of a bummer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Sinister Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Nah, yall were just talking about DC games and stuff. I played it on PS3 back about a decade ago but it was so glitchy it destroyed my save file. Had playing for a year up to that point, and it all got wiped out (this was back when I was a dumbass and learned that you need multiple save files at all times). I bet it looks sweet as hell. I know theres still bunch of people on steam that run Fallout mods, even entire new maps. Some areas did feel pretty accurate, like the Mall area, Georgetown, the area around GW parkway, the Jefferson memorial. Even some parts of MoCo looked a bit familiar. I think they left SoMd off the map though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Jedi Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Nobody interested in the Modern Warfare Beta? Crossplay this weekend... I'm downloading for my PC.

Chew Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Had a blast on the Beta last weekend, looking forward to playing some more. Love the balance of MW, they took some stuff from Battlefield, which is a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine with the larger increases in map and player size they would increase that some too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purbeast Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Swung by Walmart at lunch because it was right next to where I was eating, to see if they were selling Link's Awakening early. They had it in the display case however they had a cardboard sign over it saying 'RELEASE 9/20/19'. What I noticed though was the price of $49.99. I asked the guy at the register if that was the real price and he said it is, and I asked him if I could grab it now and he said the computer won't let him. They had tried and it doesn't let them which is why they put that sign in the case lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Playing Witcher III and confronted my first werewolf. Getting my ass handed to me.

Wally world has been selling a lot of new games for $10 off..I suspect it's to compete with the free $10 GCs with purchase of new games that some of their competition does.

The Evil Genius Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Oh damn I didn't know that. I also am recommended to be level 7 but I'm still stuck on level 3 so that probably makes it a bit harder too. Need to stop blindly picking side quests (and stop being the moral one..other than looting like a mofo). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Yeah it may make you consume more goods than you'd like, but you can compete probably up to 6-7 levels past yours, even on Death March. It doesnt truly become hopeless until you see the red demon skull over an enemy, then just run, or pack a lunch if it's 1v1, and if so, don't catch more than a slight graze, cuz its basically one hit kill for virtually all attacks. Grazing hits will take around 90% health Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Heh, im starting to like finesse, alchemical light armoured Geralt. More of a thinking/strategy build, but when used right it leaves you less susceptible to hits (while making the most of oils, bombs and potions), which is good, because getting hit sucks with this build. At least until I get into the right armour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purbeast Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Ended up hitting up the Nintendo shop in NYC on the 20th and they still had some Dreamer editions left so I said **** it and got it. I'm a Zelda mark and was like it's my ****ing anniversary so might as well spoil myself. Tax in NYC is no joke though lol. I'm probably going to go back there before I leave tomorrow afternoon and buy a few shirts and a hoodie or two. They have some awesome clothing in there and this awesome Zelda hoodie. I'm glad I didn't go out of my way to get it at midnight anywhere either because I played games on the bus for like an hour. I was tired as **** and in/out of sleep for a while, then played for a bit and started to feel a bit car sick. I'll probably start Zelda tomorrow on the bus ride home since I finished that Shantae game. That was a really good game too. They also had a ton of the Amiibo's for Link's Awakening too. Had some cool stuff on display too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I layed the silver to the White Orchard griffin yesterday. I'm a run 'n shogun (my own nickname) glass chin. This is gonna make for some hilarious fights. Traded in the complete edition for the launch version, so I got my old saves back, but m on new game +, basically starting where I left off, and resuming my build (had like 20 pts left over from the old save). This is pretty much where im going with it. And I was right, the last build was medium armour/signs/bit of alchemy/heavy sword strokes. This time I'm almost all alchemy, poison blades, virtually no toxicity, coating, acquired and heightened tolerance, snd bombs, then fast slicing with the hurricane whirl, crit, fast damage, and rend. The cat school perk just stacks all of it. That last slot will be either Sunder Armor or Fleet of Foot. Likely the latter, as I already have Rend. I may eventually remove whirl and throw in cripple, which along with poison blade, will make it a double bleed/poison build as well, along with stacking bleed runes on the swords.

Simmsy Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Does anyone here play Monster Hunter World? I've wanted to try it for a while, got the Game Pass trial and downloaded the game. I'm completely overwhelmed to the point that I don't want to play anymore. I don't mind a steep learning curve or a complex game, but this game just gives you text tutorials...its not enough. Also, you don't get a damn manual in this day and age anymore which definitely doesn't help the situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm only level 7 but maxed out that first red quick strike, the green poison blades, and that first blue axii delusion spot. Sadly I only have two mutagen spots opened and can only use 4 skills at a time right now. Not sure how I'll build my character but I usually just balance them out the first time through. I tend to be hack and slash in these games so a balance build will suffice for right now. Totally whiffed on this game when it came out. It's ****ing amazing. Edit..btw the delusion on people while fighting them is hilarious. Taking out bandit camps one by one with 1 hit decapitations and body cleaves is savage.

If you never played MH series before, you'll probably have better luck watching some youtube vids on your weapon of choice. Gaijin Hunter was the one I watched when I got into MH4 on 3ds. I'm pretty sure he made MHW content too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought it, maybe a year ago, but immediately regretted it because it seemed like another one of those online games that grind you to oblivion, with a bunch of crap thrown at you from the start that seemed like a game intended to be played for years and years. I hate those games. 23 minutes ago, The Evil Genius said: I'm only level 7 but maxed out that first red quick strike, the green poison blades, and that first blue axii delusion spot.

I honestly forgot how great it was because its been like 4 years since I last played it, and they patched in some stuff and added all the dlc quests. Feels like an all new game in that respect. Going with feast/famine build on the hardest difficulty also makes things feel a bit refreshing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
