Video Game General

@Cyborg_pony  
Yes, gud game. Leave the sequel though, I haven’t played it but I heard it’s crap. The first game is fantastic.

@Mikey  
I heard the 2nd is just rather bland.
 
Like you can tell they didn’t plan on a sequel, but since it did so well.

@Mikey
 
Tbh I heard that the first game was kind of just mediocre. Like, the “bring down a Star Destroyer with the Force” selling point was actually a clunky mess with terrible controls.

@Jarkes  
Dude, I played it lol  
It was nothing like that.

@Cyborg_pony
 
@Jarkes
 
I couldn’t care for it.
 
But then again I don’t like Beat Em Ups or Hack and Slash to begin with so my opinion ain’t reliable there.
 
But yeah the Star Destroyer was just a QTE event, and a poorly mapped one at that. It’s telling that the Wii version improved it by making it a cutscene.

@Dustcan
 
I see.

Why are there still not that many Indie devs making stuff available for play on the Xbox One live marketplace?

@Background Pony #7E7C  
Maybe Xbox One Live isn’t that great for indie developers.

@Dustcan  
For me it was a simple single player Star Wars game with a few non intrusive QTEs here and there. I just thought it was really fun and I love hack and slash/beat em ups.

Suit yourself. PS4 may have it going with active VR support and a removable hard Drive, But the games the Xbox One has in its library have NEVER had to deal with the idiotic censorship policies that contemporary Sony still has for PS4 because “MUH KIDS ;___;”. Kinect may have had its flaws but it could have been improved upon had MS seen the potential. Oh, and Xbox One controller is better than the standard 360 controller. Plus, you can hook up an external Hard Drive to the Xbox One and both Mouse AND keyboard can be hooked up to it. Finally, Microsoft’s customer service for the Xbox One is better overall than $ony is for the PS4 and Vita.

whoa dude slow down

@Background Pony #7E7C  
Sounds like I hit a nerve. Funny that I never mentioned Sony yet half of your reply is focused on them. Also, Nintendo and PC exist, and I’ve heard that indies prefer those platforms to Xbox and PS4.

@PonyPon  

 
Pretty normal for all new players. You’ll get better though.  
Remember the first rule though. Never use a Mozambique, but alway ping any that you see.

@Meanlucario
 
He’s not wrong about Sony though. As much as I loathe to admit it.

@Jarkes  
I’m not going to disagree that Sony has some glaring problems, just that Anon went off the rails and tried to say “the alternative is worst” without directing the problem or talking about the other alternative (kind of like a politician).

@Background Pony #7E7C  
Xbox One has no reason to exist in today’s age with PlayStation and Nintendo, and Microsoft putting all their exclusives on PC. You know, the better platform.

@Mikey  
I don’t think Nintendo is going to make their games go PC, and Sony still has Bloodborne and God of War as exclusives.

@Mikey
 
Nintendo doesn’t put exclusives on PC though.

@Meanlucario  
I didn’t mean Sony and Nintendo putting their games on PC, shoulda added punctuation.

There.

@Mikey  
I think a “while Microsoft” would work better.

@Meanlucario  
Well you get what I was saying now :p

@Carcass Strife  
I did manage to kill a guy with a finisher on my second go.

Also, with Halo MCC coming to steam, odds are Halo 5 will follow, and Infinite will also release on steam as well. Meaning less sales on Xbox One.

@PonyPon  
Nice, nice. Though it might be tempting to do that more, you’re better off shooting the guy instead. Finishers really just make you vulnerable to any enemies that show up.
