Reading Thimmy's posts on Nier. I think I will buy it just to experience it.

But the ethereum mining clownfiesta should drop down in 2-4 months.

From your experience, is there a big difference in monitors with 1080 @144hz and 1440p @144hz?

by Bellabong Sat Jul 29, 2017 9:09 pm

Omg Nier is so much worth. You'll find a drop off Mole but after that prepare to have your mind blown.

Well I actually don't have that much experience with 1440p unless you count downsampling 4K. I'm on an overclocked 1080p Ultrawide and a normal 1080p monitor with around the same pixel density.

I can tell you that if you hit the framerates with your hardware that 60+Hz a phenomenal difference is. It's the only time when the INCREASE YOUR PERFORMANCE advertisement actually holds some ground :3

Oh and ultrawide is goat for games.

I mean I'm enjoying it already so that's probably a good sign, combat is just so fun and fluid and there's probably loads of combos I haven't even come close to achieving yet.

Haven't got far in the story

Spoiler:

But I suspect that has big things coming too.

by Bellabong Sat Jul 29, 2017 9:23 pm

Well the combos are free form and weapon type combo dependant.

Oh you're like... 16% through the story of which you have to experience the first half twice.

You know nothing mole snow.

That's what I meant, I have barely experienced with other weapons yet.

You've seen my tower already right?

Sadly every single actual upgrade for my PC would cost me EU1000+

Giving Mario Kart 8 less than a 9 is a crime against humanity imo.

"Nice try Sony but you failed to bring a good exclusive to your platform as always".

That part cracked me up. I don't know if he's hating on Playstation as a console, or if he's just talking nonsense. Probably both.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Sun Jul 30, 2017 12:39 am

That post was the very example of why I say the new Zelda is very overrated.

People like him act like it's gods gift to the gaming universe when it's not even the best Zelda game lol.

First one is a little too short ( as in 2-3 hours short ) but fun for what it offers.

The next two are utterly fantastic though, taking you two new locations with both recurring and new characters with fantastic storytelling especially in the third one.

I stand by what i said when the main character got awards for best voice acting etc etc, as good as the character is the real MVP of this game is Donovan.

Amazing character, it's a shame the press around this game is so negative ( some of it deserved, some not) because it does a lot of things exceedingly well.

Same here. Donovan had a very interesting and believable character. It remind me of those 70s movies. In fact it reminded me of one of my favourite games of all time: LA Noire.

Overall a very good and underrated game packed with fun. Shame about the repetitiveness, I think that let people down, hence the mediocre reviews.

Nier is not on PC, its not really an exclusive.

But even not counting that: Yakuza 0, Nioh, Horizon, Persona 5, Uncharted Lost Legacy.

Amazing year by Sony.

Looool I meant Nier is on PC so its not really a PS4 exclusive.

Heard Square was being a bitch about patching it though.

Also I can't recommend the MGS series enough. I torrented the first three games on PC a few years back and believe me even MGS 1 still holds up.

Obviously when I say that I mean not on Xbox lol.

Anyone on here tried the LawBreakers beta? I've been thinking of checking it out, but I don't have a lot of time on my hands until next weekend.

by LeVersacci Sun Jul 30, 2017 10:44 pm

What kind of game is it

by RealGunner Sun Jul 30, 2017 10:49 pm

by LeVersacci Sun Jul 30, 2017 11:33 pm

That looks fun af. When does the beta end? Will try it out tomorrow

Also def not getting Destiny 2. Game trash

by Thimmy Mon Jul 31, 2017 10:46 pm

The beta ends today, apparently. Did you try it out, Sacci?

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Mon Jul 31, 2017 11:13 pm

I was started to get slightly annoyed with Nier, nothing bad or anything but the lack of fast travel was really starting to grind my gears Laughing

But you eventually unlock a point where each save point acts as a fast travel destination, thank *bleep* because i probably would have stopped playing if he stayed like that the entire game.

Having to play through the rather predictable and cliché story of the first part of the game twice, is definitely going to annoy you Laughing
