you might want to give it another chance.DementedSheep said:I had demo for Castlevania: lord of shadows because I had been considering buying it. I never even finished that and was wanting to drop it before finishing the first tutorial fight sequence. I not actually sure what turned me off this game so completely and so quickly.
Maybe when it's cheap. I'm losing patience for the it will be good in a few hours games. I already don't have to time to play all the games I want without investing time into one I'm not sure is going to be worth it.lechat said:you might want to give it another chance.DementedSheep said:I had demo for Castlevania: lord of shadows because I had been considering buying it.

I done the same thing and played the tutorial and up to the first boss which was just one huge quick time event with a few 1 minuet waits for the boss to attack thrown in and then quit. recently went back to it and if you are a fan of hack and slash it's honestly one of the best in the genre.
I would probably play the first five hours before giving it up if you can.
Heh, you've reminded me of FF XIII. I was at the in-laws when that game came out, and I was a huge fan of the SNES/PS1 FF games so I figured I might as well check another one off the "finished" list. My wife got sick to death of hearing me complain during the entire duration of the playtime: "Is this really a series of long and narrow hallways"? "Is there ever going to be an actual town to visit"? "Is the combat going to ask more of me than 'mash X, switch to different paradigm when staggered"? "What the actual fuck is even happening? Half the vocabulary isn't even words, and I'm apparently supposed to read through walls of text that actually explain what the cutscenes were supposed to".BloatedGuppy said:Playing Witcher 3 calcified my Inquisition hate, but didn't ignite it. It's a pretty bad sign when I finish a game and the first post-ending impressions I have to share with the GF is a torrent of scorn.
I was hoping you could enlighten me about this. Metro 2033 is literally the only game in my Steam library with terrible framerates, no matter what I do. It's my understanding that the Redux version is better optimized, but you aren't the first person to lament some changes it made. When I look through the Steam forums, there's a lot of people complaining that they've been asked to buy the game twice, and some people didn't like that 2033 had been "Last Light-ified".Xsjadoblayde said:Metro Redux. Egh. Fine I'll just plug in the 360 and pretend that Redux never happened.
It's not even that Tiny Tina is written that badly. It's just that she's essentially an underage Manic Pixie Dream Girl. She's a walking, small-sized embodiment of the trope, and just as predictable.0takuMetalhead said:Blame Burch for the writing. Anthony that is. As for Tina, have to agree on that part, but only if we talk about the base game. Ine the DLC's she appeared in she had her character toned down to bearable standards. But I can't blame you for giving up on the game. The writing is just wack. Handsome Jack killed any reason to make new characters for me (quite an achievement that I have 4).
The original Bioshock never 'grabbed' me either, but I still feel like it was a finely crafted gaming experience.OT:
That honour goes to Bioshock actually.
Combat is bland, story didn't grab me (if it had any) and as a spiritual sequel to System Shock it misses everything that made both SS games so fun.
Only game that I had in my collection that ended in the garbage bin.
I've finished Brutal Legend. I liked it and it to this day has a special day in my heart because it introduced me to, well, rock.Zen Bard said:Brutal Legend
I barely made it to the second chapter. The game was basically a long series of cut scenes with some basic button mashing wedged between.
Shame really, because it was such a great concept. Especially to a metal head/RPG fan like me.
Sadly, it went back to the bargain bin from whence it came.
Overlord for me too. I was also looking forward to playing a big bad guy that was aiming for world conquest, but controls were TERRIBLE. I had this game for both PS3 and PC and both Gamepad and M+KB didn't allow me to properly control my minions.DementedSheep said:Overlord. Don't like the controls, was occasionally funny but mostly not to my taste. I gave it 10 hours before dropping it. It's a shame because playing an evil overlord with army of minions in game taking the piss sounds like something I would like, I just don't really like this one.
Yeah, especially considering there are no difficulty settings in DS.Buckets said:Agree on Dark Souls, I hated the almost instadeath about every 10 feet. I know hardcore gamers love that shit but even set on the lowest setting I couldn't do it.
You are lucky. I played it almost to the end, it never got any better but I decided that I had got so far I might as well finish it. And I would of done too if it wasn't for the bit just before the end. Basically, there is a ammo sapping arena bit where you have to kill a load of enemies for some reason and this in a game which is really stingy with its ammo drops. Then shortly after that you go into a room with two 'Safehead' enemies, but unlike previous areas with these enemies, they were very very hard to kill.Casual Shinji said:The Evil Within
I don't know what the hell went on behind the scenes of that production, but Shinji Mikami making a game this shit still boggles my mind. Literally every aspect of this game is garbage. The shooting mechanics, the running animation, the visual design, the rendering, the framerate, the fucking letterboxing, the enemy placements...
Thankfully I quickly decided to spare myself the agony of seeing whether anything good might actually emerge from this pile of vomit and I simply stopped playing it after two hours and returned it to the store. No more Max Payne 3-levels of anguish for me.
