I think it was alright but the engine was weird, lots of wonky hitboxes, losing Max health was too much of a punish for a game where death should be about teaching, and the last bosses and area of the game wasn't done very well I think it does end up as a weaker title due to these issues and it's a shame that 3 refused to take the good ideas of 2 into the next game like sconces --- |

Doe 06/24/18 9:10:09 PM #17 | RoboLaserGandhi posted... Something I never see people commending about 2: the torch/sconce mechanic. I absolutely loved that. Really disappointed me when it didn't return for 3. Definitely a great sub-goal for progression and forced you into a trade off. I'm having trouble thinking of big things 3 added right now. All that comes to mind is pseudo-humanity and removing armor upgrading for some reason --- |

Doe 06/24/18 9:04:13 PM #13 | RoboLaserGandhi posted... myzz7 posted...DS2 is objectively crap though. Dark Souls 2 successfully brought new ideas and style to the series with new characters and stuff. It's downfall is in its technical and design aspects. Dark Souls 3 is a much more polished game but carries itself too much on "remember Dark Souls 1? Remember Siegmeyer? Good times" --- |

Doe 06/24/18 7:15:43 PM #7 | YOUHAVENOHOPE posted... what is it about certain hardware configurations that makes emulation harder Companies don't want their stuff emulated because it makes it easier for people to play their games without buying their hardware. So they're secretive about how the stuff works, and it's not always easy to understand what's going on by busting a console open. --- |

Doe 06/24/18 7:14:08 PM #5 | Consoles are like computers running their own operating system. So they have their version of Windows. You can't just jam a NES cartridge into your PC and play because the cartridge is read using different rules than your computer OS An emulator is basically a big program that simulates the OS of the console, and that program can then work with the data of the NES game --- |

Doe 06/24/18 7:01:19 PM #21 | Darmik posted... I thought Minecraft has had paid skins for a long time now? Maybe but the last time I had played it there was no additional purchasing once you bought the game so it's really disappointing to see a deep pc game so popular among young children to be commercialized with micro-transactions on the main menu of the game. --- |

Doe 06/24/18 6:55:49 PM #19 | @Dash_Harber posted... So you're saying that the smart business decision would be for them to continue to devote resources to the game without charging any more? You can argue that the corporate 'CONSUME' smart decision is to try and get players to pay for more content in the game. But that doesn't make it a disgusting and disheartening decision from the perspective of the consumer. Continued support of a videogame is not only to spoonfeed Day 1 buyers that are still playing the game 15 years later. That's not even playerbases in long-supported games work. The point of continuing support for a videogame is to keep a game interesting and evolving, keeping the community invested and as a result attracting new purchasers who want to join the game and community. If you step into a Day of Defeat server it's probably going to be mostly long-time veterans because it's an old game that's not truly supported anymore, nothing attracts new players. Minecraft continues to sell insane amounts of copies so there's no reason to make players pay to have a skin now besides the desire to nickel n dime additional money from the playerbase, old and new. --- |

Not only is the game ancient and still be supported, generally mandating new content, but the DLC is almost entirely cosmetic. It's almost like the policy of the game was free content updates entitled to you upon purchase. As well as support to the community to create and integrate their own content. This shit with making you buy skins on the fucking PC is completely backwards from the progress the game made and it's laughable that you'd try to defend it. --- |
