Re: General Games Discussion
Speaking of metroidvania games, did anyone play Dead Cells?
Almost bought it in Golden Week sale (along with Gravity Rush 1+2) but my backlog is too big and I decided to not buy anything until I cleared it. Done with Celeste and now I'm playing SOMA which was free on PS+.

Bought it but didnt like it, its less metroidvania and more roguelike. Which is a genre that i already don't like due to how oversaturated it is.

I like rogue-likes, but I wasn't aware that they were oversaturated. Can't remember the last time I played one. Then again, I rarely ever play indie games, which is what they usually are.

Re: General Games Discussion
Roguelike games blew up circa 2015 on Steam with the Binding of Isaac, and devs gobbled that up due to how easy it is to produce them.
Modern roguelike or roguelites try to mash it with other genres. Darkest Dungeon is one, i guess Dead Cells is another.

Re: General Games Discussion
Yh Roguelike games are everywhere honestly though 2D Metroidvania's are starting to catch up to them tbh.
One of the reasons i liked GOW so much is because it was a 3D metroidvania more or less even if i think they can go further with the design.
We haven't had many of those since Metroid Prime apart from Souls games.

Yeah, agreed with Mole. Metroidvania is starting to sprout out right now, Prey is another good example of that. I can guarantee you Beyond Good and Evil 2 will be that as well if it wver releases. RE2 remake as well, honestly its a great time if you're a fan of these type of games. Metroid Prime 4 is the capstone.

Re: General Games Discussion
I have a feeling Respawns Star Wars game will be also, going off how the game is described at least it sure sounds like it.
It's not as high profile but Control (Remedy's new game) has been confirmed to be also.

I had completely forgotten about this game's existence. I know someone who's going to be excited about how much this looks like an anime Dark Souls

Witcher 1 Enhanced Edition + Witcher 2 Enhanced Edition was available on GoG for 4 Euros together, bought both. Haven't played Witcher at all so far.

How come you loved 3 but couldn't get into 1? Normally it's the other way around and people love the first and hate the newer games.

I had the exact same experience with the first one.

It probably has to do with CDPR being an indie developer with a very limited budget, initially. Absolutely everything from scale to the amount of substance improves after the first one.

Re: General Games Discussion
Played them all, they are very different games to be honest. And the first one is very dated by today's standards now.
The story was what kept me going.

Re: General Games Discussion
I don't know how I could ever get into a series without playing the first part of it.
I don't have a problem with "dated" games. I still enjoy Gothic I which is from 2001.

I started with 2 and then played 3 because I'm primarily a console player and 2 introduced me to the Series.
I played 1 after i played 3 because i got gifted it for free, turns out that playing a game almost 10 years after it's release makes it feel very outdated.

Witcher 3 is the best by far. Only some hipsters would say 1 was better than it, and I played 1 back when it was not outdated.

Re: General Games Discussion
I also think part of it is because i went 2 > 3 > 1.
I experienced everything they improved and learnt before i played the original and then played the original.
I suspect i was always going to struggle to enjoy it when you consider that.

Re: General Games Discussion
Well, I think it's safe to conclude that the success of the second one allowed for the third one to be such a hit. They started off with very limited resources, not to mention lack of experience. What often happens with franchise titles, is that the creativity fades, but sequels still have to be released. That clearly hasn't been the case with the Witcher series.

Does anyone think that? I've seen people who prefer Witcher 2 to 3 because the story was more political but not anyone who prefers 1 to 3.

The jump from Witcher 2 to witcher 3 is insane though.

Wonder if we'll ever get Witcher 4
Feels like Geralt's story is done but we all thought about Joel and Ellie too.
