Video Game Thread v. Wii4One

Can't wait for Far Cry 5. End of February is a long wait and with RDR 2 getting delayed to spring it's going to be a busy gaming season.

[Phoenix87x]

Rime looks cool. I'll wait for the switch version though

[TioJorge]

After watching people play it and hearing reviews, I'm not nearly as excited to play it. I'll end up getting it on sale down the line but it sounds like it's a whole hell of a lot more shallow and restricted than what they initially sold it as.

Still looks really beautiful and that's cool but damn...I was hoping for a truly Ico-esque world except more open and adventurous (which was pretty much exactly how they described it).

[Phoenix87x]

Over 50 hours in to breath of the wild and I've only done ONE main story quest. This may be my favorite Zelda and even if its not, its one of the greatest games I've every played in my life.

[ReaperKK]

I still want to play it so bad but I don't want to get a switch.

I can't stop playing factorio, it's like the perfect scratch to my ADD itch.

New trailer for sonic mania and release date (8/15/17)

Yep. I want to play twilight Princess but i'm not going to buy a Wii just for one game.

[Sacul]

The Wii has plenty of great game, like Metroid Prime Trilogy, Okami, Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2, Super Smash Bros, Xenoblade Chronicles, No More Heroes, Resident Evil 4, even an excellent port of Modern Warfare, and more I'm missing.

[Crow]

So I'm getting persona 5

Nice

[El Barto]

So rather than continuing to muck up the Skyrim thread I'll throw this out here. I've started playing FO-NV recently and I'm not digging it very much. Perhaps I'm missing something, but on 3 or 4 occasions I've wound up face to face with some asshole while we take turns shooting each other in the head. Like 8 or 10 rounds, point blank to the noggin. Are you supposed to just use that SPAZ thing rather than manually blasting away? Am I just waiting for some more powerful weapons to come along (though a .556 isn't exactly a pea shooter)? I get that it's not intended to be a FPS, but rather a RPG, which I'm cool with. Nevertheless, some NPCs really need to die and the mechanics of making it so seem to really suck. What am I missing here?

[cramx3]

Early in the game?  Im kind of wondering if you just aren't powerful enough to easily kill whatever it is you are trying to kill.  But you should use the SPAZ thing because that makes it a lot easier to get a hit, but that's also part of FO strategy and if you want to build a character who is really strong with that system.

Btw anyone that played Dying Light? I reinstalled it yesterday, have to say I feel it's a underated game. Really enjoyed the campaign and the DLC and even after I completed the game there's still alot things to do, probably the best zombie singleplayer game i've played.

I've heard nothing but good things about this so not sure it's underrated from my perspective, however I never played it.

Yea apparently not because after you said that I had a peak on steam and yea it pretty much is overwhelmed with positive feedback so i'm not sure why I thought that.

So excited to play this.

[Polarbear]

Finished Witcher 3's main story earlier today. Despite the story wrapping pretty quick, it was incredible!!

I want to do New Game+ at some point, because i want a 100% good ending. I had mostly good choises, but a couple of irritating mistakes also.

I will be starting Hearts of Stone next, and Blood and Wine after that. Pretty excited!

I also really want that Grandmaster Griffin School gear set.

[LCArenas]

Anyone here playing Nier: Automata? I'm not even a fan of these kind of games but I'm loving it so far.

[MrBoom_shack-a-lack]

Star Trek Bridge Crew looks like alot of fun, if only I had VR.

[ReaperKK]

Finally bought battlegrounds, I'm going to jump in and play once it's done downloading.

[Phoenix87x]

E3 next week 

[ReaperKK]

Can't wait!

[ReaperKK]

Wow, looks incredible. I didn't get the first game aside from liking the demo but this may go on my list to buy

[LieLowTheWantedMan]

Just finished Nier Automata. Easily my favourite story in a game ever. Gameplay isn't perfect, has a few repetitive elements, but I loved the story, characters, universe, and all the quirks so much that it's easily forgivable.

[Phoenix87x]

Felt a little underwhelmed by the xbox press conference. Although, Anthem definitely got my attention. Metro looked pretty cool too.

$499 for the new Xbox X, yeah no thanks. I've got the cash, but that's too much for me to drop. I also do not have a 4k tv, so there's that too.

Can't wait for the bestheda press conference. Unfortunately for the East coast it starts at midnight 
Guess I will find out the news tomorrow morning (please show Elder scrolls 6, fingers crossed)

[Mr. Beale]

That Sea of Thieves looks neat.

I'd watch the Bethesda conference but WHY is it so late on a Sunday night? Hope we see whatever the main Bethesda team has been working on (probably not Elder Scrolls VI unfortunately).

[ReaperKK]

I believe elder scrolls 6 is in the works but I think it's way too early to be shown off. A man can dream.

[black_biff_stadler]

This is a moment where I prove how badly this forum needs tagging.

[MrBoom_shack-a-lack]

Only thing I really cared about from the Bethesda conf. was the new Wolfenstein, I really enjoyed the two previous games.

[BlobVanDam]

The most exciting thing from E3 for me is the sequel to Ori and the Blind Forest. Nothing else I really care much about.

[MrBoom_shack-a-lack]

I take that back, somehow I completely missed the new Metro game. Holy shit!!

[Accelerando]

Im excited for Assassins Creed Origins. I think Ubisoft taking a few years off is going to help the franchise (although i loved Syndicate). The team that did Black Flag has been working on this one since. According to the E3 announcement, there's no Animus. It's all set in Ancient Egypt to tell the story about the first group of Assassins. It's going to be a true open world RPG, and not so action-adventure, with a skill tree, which is new to the franchise. Oh, and instead of Assassinating to end a sequence or mission, there are going to be Boss Fights.

Big changes with Assassins Creed, but maybe a welcoming one.

[Phoenix87x]

me too. I am buying that day one. Besides that, I don't know why did they even bothered having a press conference?

No elder scrolls 6? Oh well. I guess I will play as link and swing around the mastersword in Skyrim. Shame its not coming out until the end of december.

[ariich]

Although, Anthem definitely got my attention.

The initial teaser massively got my attention because I love Bioware's stuff, but it looks like they're ditching their story-rich RPG approach for this one and going for a co-op online multiplayer game instead, which I have zero interest in. Sad times.
