Video Game General 2: Definitive/Remastered Edition

There was no Bayonetta in the Nintendo Direct.
So instead let’s enjoy, Persona 5 Royal, and Nier Automata.

@igotnopicks
People were expecting Persona to not show up lol
Portal collection drops today too. Would be nice to see Still Alive content in it.

@igotnopicks
There’s also Mega Man Battle Network collection too.

Finally. Megaman Battle Network collection.

It’s a good day.

YO, HOLY S##T! THEY WENT IN HARD WITH THIS ONE!

While Partner showcases aren’t high bars(though the ones that showed MH Rise and NMH were great), this was easily the best one yet. While there was some games I was hoping to make an appearance(CoD MWR, FF Pixel Remaster, FFTactics, Goldeneye) there was plenty of great stuff here, both in terms of ports and new games. Portal shadowdropping, Persona and Megaman Battle Network were the biggest highlights for me

On the subject of Battle Network, we’re one step closer to Legends getting a collection

Of the games they showcased in the Partner Direct, I’m more excited for Pac-Man World Re-Pac and Disney Dreamlight Valley.

NieR Automata getting a physical release for Switch has got people questioning why they did what they did with Kingdom Hearts Switch.

So what’s this “NieR” series, basically?

@4Town Fan
Sexy androids trying to save the world from alien robots or something.

@4Town Fan
Bullet hell with combat and weird.

The Coconut Of Tf2,Stopper of games.

@4Town Fan
Basically the best way to explain the Nier series is it’s predessor being Drakengard. In one of the endings of Drakengrad, the main protagonist destroys the population of Earth or something like that.

Sequel actually, and even then only to one of the Drakengard endings.

Skyrim has spears.

You use them like arrows.

@Meanlucario
This thing is wrong. Skyrim has spears.

Reikling spears don’t count

@Meanlucario
I’d often give my wizards spears in Morrowind. It made sense from a roleplaying perspective: using a sword well takes training. Anyone can poke with a pointy stick.

@kleptomage
Staves were a better pick because the Ebony staff has an insane enchant level of 90 only good spears were bitter mercy and storm forge granted storm forge was a easy to get one and I think you could get a demon spear for cheap at the shop in balmora

@Thanotos Omega
I believe the Spear of Bitter mercy shows up in Skyrim Anniversary Edition with the Goblin follower.

@igotnopicks
That creation predated the anniversary edition but it is there a goblin follower has it

Ah the Steam Summer sale. Half blessing Half Curse.

OOh its on sale… but now it has mixed reviews should I still gets.

@Dustcan
Alright Dusty, back to the Alien Isolation discussion.

Ok, so maybe I can buy the Xeno shrugging off and only flinching from maybe quite a few shotgun rounds before it starts to actually die from it…

As this Bear tanking a direct shotgun blast would kinda support the idea a Xeno would be tough to take down for average Joes and Janes:

But why is the Flamethrower being on it for several seconds not a kill on the Xeno or at least cause it injuries to where it would cease hunting for a damn good while?

It does? The flamethrower causes it to retreat. Hell shoot it mid-lunge and the xeno will only knock you over before it disappears.

Shoot, after scaring it off a few times with the flamethrower I once got it to stand still while aiming with it. IIRC, aiming slightly away from the xeno or stop looking down the sights caused it to slowly approach me. Then I switched weapons and it dashed right in for the kill.

That game’s xenomorph AI is impressive. It remembers the flamethrower.
