Anyone care to convince me either way on Victor Vran?
Click to expand...
The real question is why shouldn't you? Do you like arpgs? Get it. Do you like games like Warcraft 1-3, diablo 1-3, torchilght 1&2? Get it. Do you need someone to co-op the game with and don't wanna play it alone? I'm your man! (or check out the Victor Vran Club, lots of good folks in there). I mean look at my first post after bloomy posted this weeks deals. It is a fantastically underrated game that deserves more attention. Come on......

You let an ejected bunny bully you into buying the game? :whistle2:o

I'm on the fence too, since I'm a sucker for diablo'esque games. Wish it was cheaper...also wish I had more time to get to it and the other games I like. Wish I could fly...

Ok, nevermind.

 
Finally got my $40 Xbox Live sub from that ebay deal that was posted here a couple weeks back. The seller was supposedly an authorized MS reseller according to Ebay, but I got a Brazillian Xbox Live card that can't be redeemed at all here on the site or on my console and looks nothing like the card in the picture. Great...

Didn't go for any of the flaming skins..but since it's an achievement I guess there will be other chances...?

 
I decided to take a break from First Person Shooters and try another series I've been meaning to play:

Assassin's Creed.

And just like when I first tried it years ago, this game is boring. Annoying tutorial, dialogue that feels endless, and a mechanic where I try to climb a wall and I jump off of it instead.  And if I die by landing in water, why is my character swimming before the game resets? Sometimes for no reason, my character would try to hide in a hay pile. Even some NPC's are like "why is he doing this?"

I'll keep at it, though, and try to finish it. I remember playing some trials of other Ass Creed games and actually having fun. I really hope this game picks up; surely this game is more fun than Battlefield 4. 

Nice try with the Battlefield 3 sale, Xbox. Already finished it  (and that game sucked too).

I'm glad someone likes it :D... If i remember correctly I could never pick up weapons off the ground or browse the menu very well, because of how glitchy the Kinect interaction was. It did some things great but overall it was a poor game(when using the kinect) in my opinion. There is a reason I never went back to it after that launch month.

Edit: ^ Cage: did you play Assassins creed 1 or assassins creed origins? I really hate AC1 but I truly believe the series is one that has improved with time. It's not perfect by any means, but the sequels are definitely better than the original. 4 has the best Naval combat I've played in years. Origins is worth a shot just for how breathtaking it is. The story line in all of them is a little slow but I feel they suffer from mass effect syndrome. (Need 3 hours to get good)

Didn't go for any of the flaming skins..but since it's an achievement I guess there will be other chances...?

From TC Octus:

"We've designed these two sets of achievements exactly to avoid the issues with past event based achievements.

Firstly, we'll provide multiple opportunities to earn skins - including ones we've already given away.

Secondly, if events did stop for any reason, we can potentially provide other ways that are non-event reliant to get the skins so that the achievements aren't next to or outright impossible to get."

I decided to take a break from First Person Shooters and try another series I've been meaning to play:

Assassin's Creed.

And just like when I first tried it years ago, this game is boring. Annoying tutorial, dialogue that feels endless, and a mechanic where I try to climb a wall and I jump off of it instead. And if I die by landing in water, why is my character swimming before the game resets? Sometimes for no reason, my character would try to hide in a hay pile. Even some NPC's are like "why is he doing this?"

I'll keep at it, though, and try to finish it.

Yeah I need to go back and go through AC again, stopped with AC2 a while ago and have been playing newer games, and Game Pass, since.

Agreed but like I heard from the boys from Games Radar's Talk Radar, well at the time anyways, "you never swim until the sequel". :lol:

 
Any thoughts on on Dragon's Dogma at $20.99?  I almost bit on the GMG price of $12 digitally for the PS4 version but figured I would wait for a good price to play it on the sweet Scorpio.  I missed it last gen and would love to play it but am willing to wait for a good price.  Any thoughts on if it will fall further?

Yeah, it ended at 7:50pm Eastern. I didn't even know there was a stream tonight, but it was 7:30, I thought "Wednesday's when they usually do a stream" and decided to check the site. They were already wrapping up when I posted, I think it was just a news show, no matches. I was surprised they kept it live for 20 minutes beyond that.

Last years sale for the game awards beat PSNs sale

With the way PSNs sales have been lately, I wouldn’t doubt that would be the case this year as well.

Looks like the stuff added tonight is mostly the same as what was there on BF.

Might pick up Thimbleweed Park for $10. Think it was $11.99 during the BF sale.
 
It's raining game deals!  :bouncy:

I am so tempted by Evil Within 2 for $30. Passed on it before when it was 30. I have spent way too much this holiday. I just know it will go cheaper within a few months, but I want to support the franchise. The struggle is real....

I haven't gotten anything from winning that raffle on Sunday. Nothing in XBL messages, no pack in the in-game store, no PMs on the Gears site. Maybe they looked through my posts on their forums and rescinded it for calling out their loot box system.

Assassin's Creed 1.

Ok, riding a horse is kind of fun. Now I have to go to 12 locations and use eagle vision to synchronize. Is this an optional mission? I'd rather go to Damascus and move on.

Funny glitch: I get on a horse and a guy yells out "You can't run from me" as I walk with the horse and never get attacked. I get to a load screen.

And the game crashes.

 
Man, I love Expertzone. If you guys remember, I won an Elite controller from them a few months back. Now I just won one of 80 codes for Evil Within 2. I guess I've got to finish up the first one finally.

And yeah, this sale definitely has to be for the VGAs. Everything seems like it is current and past nominees. The only thing that seems out of place is Andromeda, but it must have squeaked onto the best RPGs list somehow.

Do yourself a favor and skip to AC2. The first game was basically a super long tech demo for the much improved sequel. You won't miss anything reading a plot synopsis. I played through it when it first released and liked it okay but had a hard time seeing it to completion because you are doing the same couple of activities over and over. I imagine it would be super painful to pay through today.

If you want to skip straight to the good stuff, AC4 is by far my favorite and fairly standalone (though 2 and Brotherhood are also really good). Check that one out
