Games You Played Today Oratorio Tangram

I’ve been curious about that for a while, though less so since I found out the lead behind it is a shithead?

Also he said he tried moving and fighting in armor and decided to base the mechanics of the game on how exhausted he got doing that, and I just thought: but you don’t habitually fight in armor, you’re just some modern dude, yours is not the experience you should be trying to simulate? It reminded me of how all the weapons in KILLZONE 2+ handled like they were tuned by people who spent 2 hours at a range once and then said “ah yes, this is how guns should feel in the hands of our experienced soldiers!”

Damn, too bad on the gg stuff :confused:

I think the whole concept is you’re just a peasant that would’ve never worn armor anyway by the time you put some on in this game so maybe it’s not too farfetched. Granted, you’re going to get proficient at things in this at an absurd videogame rate I’d imagine but hey.

Doing things in armor is a lot less exhausting than doing things wearing those absurd 60-pound backpacks Marines hump around

Too many video games to mess around with ones by nazis.

Gosh darnit, it looks like the only way for me to easily get Nintendo Switch screenshots onto my computer is to post the photos to my Twitter account, but my twitter is too professional-network-oriented to start posting pictures of the elaborate mechanisms I’ve developed to torture my libertarian villager in Dragon Quest Builders. Is there a way to just email myself the damn screenshots?

You can copy them to a microSD card and then put them on your computer with that, I think. Then from there you can upload to imgur or someplace like that, which is what I did with the PS4 version (though I used a thumb drive rather than an SD card).

It’s the “copy to” option from inside the Photo Album.

I have a microsd to USB converter thing, that’s how I got my photos off.

You cpuld just make a junk twitter?

I have a junk youtube for my ps4 videos.

yeah i upload them to facebook and change then to private

i’m close to finishing King’s Field 2(J) and wondering why the hell this game isn’t regularly spoken of in the same breath as the NES classics or DOOM. What an impeccably designed and smart experience, only more impressive by how well it works within and around the limitations of the 1995 PSX.

i went from having done no upper body exercise in a few months to having to carry a 70 pound backpack in a week or so. the first time was insanely grueling, but your body gets used to it real quick. 2-3 months and i was pretty comfortable with a 70 pound backpack and 12 pound light machine gun on my shoulders, although long treks, especially uphill always suck no matter your training level. i’d say the main difference if anything for a modern man is just being psychologically used to laziness.

other than that, game looks great, going to check it out for sure!

I’ve been playing Dark Souls 2 for the first time. I just got to Drangleic Castle. This game is great! Everyone always dunks on it as the worst Dark Souls, but so far I’m enjoying it just as much as I enjoyed #1. The one thing I miss is that so far, there’s nothing as break-out surreal as Sockpuppet Frampt or Ash Lake. I like the Dark Souls aesthetic best when it gets totally bizarre. There’s still some great design work in this though. I love the look of the Shadow Set.

I didn’t say it was impossible, after all every infantryman does it. I’m just saying wearing plate harness is less physically taxing than carrying around that massive pack. If you can do the latter you can do even more of the former.

I just remembered I bought SHORT PEACE ages ago and never downloaded it. PS3’s transaction history is fuckin’ garbage.

A good short free FPS.
I like the story.
It has an interesting shape, and it benefits from being told in videogame form.

P.S: It’s a Wolf 3D mod, but it is a stand-alone game that doesn’t require Wolf 3D.

You’re probably the only one looking forward to that but what are we here at selectbutton if not needlessly contrarian

In all seriousness though: I hope you do enjoy it and validate all the poor saps still working on videogames at Konami
