Fuck that, remember the huge dragon boss fight? I swear each character died at least 20 times there. I can't imagine the real life money you had to trade in the arcade for the tokens needed for that fight. When we played the emulator, "inserting coins" was as easy as pressing a button and you...

I played the arcade version (tokens and stuff) on an PC emulator as a kid. We had these emulators from old games and our PC wasn't that great, so we had to make due with pixel graphics and all that. It had 4 players, so we had to actually divide the keyboard assignment so we can play ALL...

Any game that charges you money for an easier time getting in-game items that in turn make the game easier, is pay to win. If the items are for aesthetic purposes and you buy them just to brag about it, then it's not pay to win. It's that simple. When the main weapons in the game are cards, and...

If the machine is good enough to actually run games, a tablet with a controller would be an awesome thing to have in trips since you can easily play games without having to carry a heavy gaming laptop. Plug and play, and you see yourself doing bus and plane rides no problem. Too bad though that...

Challenge is different from frustration though. There's 2 achievements in Ori and the Blind Forest where you have to finish the game on the hardest difficulty while not dying not even once. For other games, sure, that's doable if you are careful. But the thing is, Ori is more of a platform game...

I have a DS4 for my PC, but I only use it if the game REALLY demands it. I find that using the analog sticks to either walk or adjust the camera angle is just far too inaccurate, and a simple stroke of the mouse would get the desired effect at a fraction of the time. That's why when games insist...

Yup, there are days when you just want to take it easy, while some times you really want the game to throw everything that it has on you. People even do armorless runs, pacifist runs, or even trying to beat the game on the highest difficulty using the weakest weapon in the game. Other times you...

It helped a bit, but still made me dizzy the entire day, to the point that I got entirely sick (literally) with dizziness and nausea. I really wanted to enjoy the game, but the motion sickness was a deal breaker. I did everything I tried when I get motion sick in other games like changing the...

Platypus. This was one of those "Space Impact" type games where you control a space ship and shoot the incoming obstacles. It was clay-mation, so I thought it looked great. You can also do a 2 player quest, but since one has to play the keyboard while the other used the mouse, it was obvious the...

Yeah, but that's always been my strategy. Once I'm sick of a game, it's done permanently. I was so addicted to Witcher 3 and Skyrim that I remember days that's just me playing it. Eat, work, play, sleep. No other change in that pattern for a while. Then I finished everything to be done in the...

DLCs are pretty slow to arrive though. But I like the idea of a return to form in RE7. RE5 and 6 have too much shooting aspect that it stopped being scary when you can simply upgrade your gun in between levels and unload an arsenal of bullets against your enemies. Ammo starvation is the key to a...

If I could, I would. But challenges at end game like no death runs, speed runs, and max difficulty runs will always be more of a frustration rather than an enjoyable experience. In Steam I only have 3 100% complete games: Witcher 3, Skyrim, and Life is Strange. The rest of the games have at...

Oh definitely. The live action ones strayed so far from the canon material they might as well call the movies "Zombie Shootem Up" and nobody would tell the difference. They just used the video game name for publicity and they never really took the game's story seriously. Just a fantasy type of...

For me I'm never the spell caster or the adventurer. It's always outside looking in. I think it's probably because I mostly play 3rd person games or strategy games, so immersion isn't always that great. You always know you're playing a game; controlling the character and doing what you want...

The one who did the voice of Geralt in the Witcher franchise was fantastic. It was a unique voice that really made you feel like a badass while adventuring through the lands. Voice acting in Skyrim wasn't that noteworthy, but I did love the voice of Serana since the actress who played her also...

I don't know what to think about the Resident Evil (animated) films. They have characters from the game like Leon, Claire, Chris, etc; but the stories are kinda cheesy when you watch them. Sure, you see more of your favorite characters, but the dialogue and plot really can't take me to their...

Most horror games were meant to be solo though since it gives you the feeling of dread and isolation. Coop games are more for shooters since you need someone to watch your back and take care of half the enemies that are spawning in front of you. Resident Evil 5 had a coop mode but I never really...

Left 4 Dead is a good example. It's pretty easy when you are solo (the game makes it more difficult when there are multiple players inside) but that's kind of the fun of it. For single player you just take a good gun and your AI companions will heal you at any cost. They will back you up and...

Only turn off I can think of is when a game gives me motion sickness. First person games mostly; but the biggest offender was Talos Principle. I loved the idea of puzzles and logic, but I can't play 30 minutes without being so dizzy I had to lie down a bit. It's not worth it in my opinion; as I...

Addiction won't stop unless I stop obsessing over it. I'll do that once I've done everything there is to do in the game. If you quit right then and there while at the peak of you playing the game, you'll be curious as to how the story unfolds. How the characters will win the story. How you can...
