Video Game General 7.0: Day Juan Ys: MoC June 9th & Wonderful 101 June 30th!

Is the RE3 Remake Demo still not up on Steam or do I have to log in to see it?

Martian summed it up perfectly

100% this feels more dark souls than metroidvania. butā€¦

This rings very very true. Iā€™m loving this game so far, but I canā€™t harp on it enough that if someone canā€™t deal with seeing the seams in a game A WHOLE LOT then you might not enjoy this game. I have a feeling that they might continue to patch it, but I donā€™t know.

But going back to the ds/mv thing. It does ds wonderfully, from atmosphere to storytelling and even combat to a degree. It does mv stuff really well but really drops the ball in some cases and makes the ds side become tedious sometimes.

Imagine if ds had platforming, and when you fuck up and miss a platform, you go back to a bonfire thatā€™s a 3 minute run away with enemies in between. Thatā€™s fucked, and it makes the ā€œoptionalā€ platforming sections more tedious then the boss fights.

Thatā€™s my only gripe tho, and the platforming sections are great! I just wished it was a damage punishment or a teleport back to the beginning of the area (like other mvā€™s) instead of instadeath.

I know Iā€™m bitching, but everyone who likes any kind of exploration/adventure game should BUY THIS GAME

An update on this: GS is letting anyone who wants Doom Eternal get it today. Preorder or not.

I highly recommend calling your local GameStopā€™s before going out into the crazy though. Most people Who have followed up on this have said that GameStops have little-to-no copies of Doom Eternal outside of preorders due to Covid-19.

So please call around at your local GameStops/EBā€™s before making the trek.

Also, REmake 3 demo is finally up for the US

I do. But itā€™s not out of fear of missing out or anything. Itā€™s because through my job (Walmart) I can get games for $15 off MSRP after the in-store discount they have on 99.95% of their games (I can count on one hand how many games they havenā€™t discounted since they started discounting them) and my own employee discount.

So paying $45usd and some change is a much easier pill to swallow than $60+ USD.

I also budget for almost every title (physical anyways. Sometimes digital sales get the better of me lol)

Thatā€™s for physical though. With digital, especially if the title is $20+ I usually wait for an eShop/PSN sale. I think the only exception Iā€™ve made paying full price for a digital game is river city girls.

But even now I donā€™t really pay full price for digital games. If I order through Walmartā€™s dotcom store I can use my employee discount on digital eShop/psn cards. So I can get $50 eShop cards for $45.

Itā€™s kinda nice lol

DOOM 3 2004ish. I couldnā€™t run it on full settings because you needed a 256MB card. I had a 128MB ATi card at the time. I had to run it on high instead of ultra everythang.

DOOM 2016. I couldnā€™t run it on full settings because you needed a card with 5GB of memory and my 7970 only had 3GB. I yet again had to run it on high instead of ultra everythang.

DOOM Eternal 2020. The recommended settings are a 1800X and a RX 480. I beat both of those by quite a bit with my current rig. I am excite. Full baja blast ultra settings here I come. :pray:

iā€™m happy that the new guilty gear is gonna have rollback even if iā€™m personally more invested in granblue at this point. tho i honestly believe it wonā€™t matter what they do to guilty gear itā€™s always gonna be the 2d equivalent of virtua fighter in that people talk about how awesome it is and then donā€™t play it.

Sea of Stars, a prequel to The Messenger was just announced by Sabotage Studios.

Itā€™s going to be funded through Kickstarter

Capcomā€™s engine is fucking stunning. :anguished:

Canā€™t wait to see what else they use it on.

That sounds less like a prequel and more like a shared universe title. Itā€™s a turn based rpg, not a platformer for starts.

I meanā€¦it more or less says itā€™s both? Itā€™s a prequel that sets up the events of the messenger? Which means itā€™s a prequel. Lol

Even in their ā€œaboutā€ in the Kickstarter they straight up say itā€™s a prequel.

Game looks dope as fuck. I kicked it for the minimum to get a digital copy.

Whoever the fucker is playing that RE3 demo need to be slapped for trynna stop Nemesis with that pee shooter :joy:

Yea I was talking to the devs, not you. Never doubted your claim it was a prequel.

Their description sounds like prequel in the loosest sense, but thatā€™s what I get from reading about the game. Just my impression bro, chill.

If I were a big fan of The Messanger and saw this I would be disappointed.

At least they didnā€™t use the dreaded SpIriTuAl SuCcEsSoR tag.

And Iā€™m perfectly chill.
