Re: Whatcha Been Watching?

Pretty much only been watching comedies as of late. Found myself pleasantly surprised by The Good Place. Don't usually like major network tv shows, but, that was great from start to finish.

Agree with this video entirely. Still my favorite Souls game, by a long shot.

Re: Destiny / The Taken King

Welp, I'm officially part of the problem. I bought Rise of Iron cause I'm a pure wank, and, then I stopped my replay (for other games specifically for the podcast, but still.)

Kinda hate myself for it, but, the new social area is pretty.

Re: Help us DOUBLE the amount of Cane and Rinse podcasts!

I guess what I'm criticizing here is less your lack of thoroughness, and more the widespread cultural notion of adopting the established consumption norms of other, more rigid, non-interactive forms of media like literature and cinema. These are in my eyes more often than not arbitrary and misleadi...

Re: Destiny / The Taken King

Generally speaking, I never get DLC ahead of it's release. I always wait for reviews, and, in Destiny's case, that often lead to me not buying the DLC. For House of Wolves and...the other one (can't remember it's name, it was that forgettable), the reviews were so middling that I didn't pick it up u...

Re: Destiny / The Taken King

Word of warning - something that's been discussed a fair bit before, but Destiny does a great job of killing your experience if you don't purchase ALL the DLC. I've bought everything except the latest pack, Rise of Iron, and this has made it tough to continue playing, I know because I have tried. I...

Re: Favourite Enemies/Monsters in Games (not Bosses)

Between the silly look and extra silly name, I can't forget my boy Abobo from Double Dragon.

I have nothing to really say about his character or attack set, he just cracks me up.

Outlast 2

So, Outlast 2 is out tomorrow. It totally snuck up on me, despite really enjoying the original, and, especially it's DLC "The Whistleblower".

Anyone else excited for it? From what I understand, it's not for the faint of heart, and, is more gruesome than the original.

Also playing Senran Kagura Estival Versus. If you either like or can get pass the fan service, I found a really fun action game that I enjoy playing that has a bit of content. Alright, I've heard this enough times that I'm actually gonna give it a shot. I've not given that series a chance at all ba...

Re: No Man's Sky

Photo mode is real nice in this game, so, provided you actually want to play NMS, you should have a good time with it, Jay.

Problem is a lot of people don't like playing it!

Re: Mass Effect: Andromeda

Yeah, I definitely enjoyed my time with it, and am very curious to see where it goes from here. I keep hearing different accounts of whether it's a new trilogy, or a one-off. Would like a new trilogy, but, can understand if they put it on ice for a while, if not forever, considering it's overall rec...

Re: Mass Effect: Andromeda

So, almost 70 hrs later, and, it's not the best Mass Effect game, by a long shot, but, I do think it's getting a pretty bad rap. Not that the previous games were top of the class third-person-shooters or anything, but, the moment-to-moment gameplay is improved by a fair margin, and it still had some...

Re: Mass Effect: Andromeda

I'd agree that the best comparison is ME1. Definitely feels like it's laying the ground work for a full series, as it probably should. I think it's biggest crime is just that it isn't doing anything new. The story feels a bit of a retread. Haven't finished it though, so, it certainly has time to cha...

A strangely unadvertised feature of the new patch, if you have a PS4 Pro, it runs at 60 FPS if you set your display to 1080.

Still not blocking or using combos, except inadvertantly when William does an unexpected backflip or glorious move as a result of my button mashing.
