Video Game General 2: Definitive/Remastered Edition

DS1 is dark and depressing, but with some hope, while DS2 is just plain grimdark?

@Background Pony #F48A  
Moreso just depressing.

@igotnopicks  
reading people mind, now that’s a power. A common one, but a power. Shooting blood that electrocute people, now that a power.

@phoenixacezero  
Anyways it’s not effective against Robots(Because they have no emotions and Apathy(A Person without emotions).
 
Shooting Blood that electrocutes People sounds like something a Blood Mage would do.

@Ring Team  
They will probably use it to allow for gameplay like living through other people’s traumas ect,

@Thanotos Omega  
That’s an interesting idea. It reminds me of Persona 5 Strikers in a way.

In the Gundam series, the evolved humans have developed what is basically a super long distance communication that breaks language barrier; the perfect form of communication. Near instantaneous, unfiltered, almost nothing lost in transmission nor translation. Consequently eliminating misunderstanding.
 
However, the evolved humans in Gundam only are able to perfectly communicate very simple thoughts and ideas. My theory is probably due to simple ideas being much easier to transmit, are easier to perceive and are much more universal. More receptive evolved humans feel death or rather, the final emotions of someone before they die; their regret, their fear, their pain etc.
 
“so that’s just like, basic social skills, because understanding that someone is angry, in love or in pain should be easy even with the language barriers.”
 
Yes. But try that with someone 10k miles away, through empty outer space, and you’re actually personalizing it rather than assuming what it must have felt like.
 
So if you have this kind of Empathy, then you actually DO have a superpower.

@Ring Team  
yeah also if she actually takes the pain away i could see her using it as a way to get people to help her, “hey tell me where you saw my brother and i can make your dad dying hurt less,” with questions about the importance of the pain in our lives ect being major themes, being an Empath can be used to amazing effect,

In a manga called BLAM! A scene that still stuck out to me was when two “robots” were basically talking without words (at least, when perceived by humans).
 
One of them even says in their telepathy communication and I paraphrase: “So much thing to say and so little time. Words are far too slow. We shall talk like this” and the manga imply that they’re communicating massive amount of information between them, something that woulda taken hours if not days with spoken words.
 
If the Empathy in Life of Strange is like this, then it’s a goddamn superpower.

@Thanotos Omega  
But that’s memories, not emotions. And again, absorbing means draining them of their emotions.

I hate Civ at times.
 

@Meanlucario  
Girl’s main power in the first game was being able to rewind/alter time.

Also Cyberpunk 2077 is now back on the Playstation Store.
 
With a warning about not to buy the PS4 version too.

@ichiban iceychan 1517  
Sounds OP and not something to trust a teen to have.

@Meanlucario  
And you would be right, given the events of the game.

@ichiban iceychan 1517  
Which is cool yet dangerous.

@phoenixacezero  
It’s just ONE OF NATURE’S MYSTERIES!

@Meanlucario  

 
The prior.

@ichiban iceychan 1517  
So Time Manipulation, yeah that’s OP.

Sooooooooo on the one hand the whole set of the 3 glassed eyed lizard has some damn good effects and wouldn’t take long to get the materials since I rng’d 2 gems (which further proofs i cannot physically and mentally wish for materials otherwise I will get dick)
 
On the other hand… Vallzacc chest and gauntelts plus wolvequill ability to heal and le insecte jouste with another healing bug have shown to be a remarkable combo to the point I could solo the final story boss
 
Then again I did the FF event and a giant chicken carted me in one hit sooooooooo… choices choices choices

All the women in the trailer of Rainbow Six Extraction be wearing some kinda hood / hat and have accents.  
I’m sold.

…you know what? James Cameron’s 2009 Avatar is the video-game-movie of Frontiers of Pandora and you can’t convince me otherwise. Man’s musta have played this game and went back in time to make a movie adaptation of it.

@Meanlucario  

 
Relevant.

How long do you keep time in a speedrun? From when you press start to when the credits end?
