If DoAX3 is anything like the previous one, it's going to suck.
Unless they get rid of the game mechanic where you buy gifts for the various beach bunnies to curry their favor so they will play beach games with you. The PSP Dead or Alive Paradise game was ruined with that whole goofy gift-giving gimmick. Lose that. Just have a menu of games to play with bikinis, items and cash awarded as achievements for winning. The island casino needed a strip poker game. BIG TIME. And a bunch of fighting games from boxing to MMA beat-downs to gladiator knife fights. Pillow fights for the squeamish. Put this together and we got something.

Rage Quit - Dead or Alive Xtreme 2 https://youtu.be/cLDoSyLztog
This week on Rage Quit, Michael hits the beaches in Dead or Alive Xtreme 2 for the Xbox 360. Be warned. Things get extreme.

>>56891
The first DOAX had nude mods on the og xbox. Hell the characters were naked in some bullshots too.

Dead or Alive 2 was already bad enough.

It was probably for publicity. I didn't know they still made these games. Seriously, people to mind their own business, and have their faces smashed in for this level of ****.

I know it's hard guys, but every time we play dead or alive, a young girl hides in a latrine full of raw sewage to stay safe. Please stop this atrocity.

Life is all about perspective, and people who think this game exploits women simply haven't played DoA, it actually exploits horny males, tricking them into paying premium prices for an otherwise lousy series of games. Also they've never had to hide in raw sewage or they'd realize there are worse things on earth that bikinis.

If you get to the end of the game in under 10 hours you get the most powerful weapon in the game.

There are also a lot of collectables you can miss, I'd look really hard for all of that coffee

>>57124
It might seem stupid but you should definitely commit to doing the frog-catching mini-game (and doing it right) and also doing the Chocobo mini-game. Good gear to be earned earlier than you'd otherwise earn it.

If you simply kill a crap load of dragons while making sure you steal throughout the entire game, you can have half your party doing 9999 dmg during the endgame or before. Freya's Dragon Crest does more damage for each dragon you kill and the same with Zidane's Thievery except with stealing. There's a spot to farm high level dragons in that tunnel before you get to Burmecia, the entrance to it is near two moogles who warn you about it before you to it.


Love this game though, only FF I've ever beaten. So much shit to discover, soundtrack is amazing, its a last hurrah of the old FF settings so no edgy teenagers riding around on motorcycles, and the characters are actually pretty fun to play with, especially Quina's Blue Magic. Amarant is really fucking OP though since can heal, revive and deal out shitloads of damage by throwing your junk weapons.

>you will never please that 1 noble

>>57128
Using Quina's Lvl 5 Death on those level 65 Grand Dragons above Gizamaluke's Grotto you mentioned is the #1 fastest, easiest way to power-level and do all that. If memory serves, they reward 3AP per battle before Ability Up too, so learning skills is a breeze as well.

It's actually under 24 hours to get the Excalibur II in Memoria, I believe.

After more hours of couch gaming I can distill my opinion a bit.

1. The Steam controller should never be used as a 1:1 replacement for dual analog controllers, this is the number one reason it is bashed by reviewers, they're used to dual analog and the touchpads simply don't cut it in that role. Because you can't center them so you get drift and you lose position easily.

2. In regards to dual analog controllers the Steam controller is superior in every regard, BUT ONLY IF USING THE TOUCHPADS AS MOUSE OR MOUSEJOY.

From these two points I've inferred the true POU (philosophy of Use *Smacks swollen Nutnfancy lips*) of The Steam Controller:
To enable PC gamers to play on the couch with some ability no matter the game. There really isn't anything else to it and for that purpose it is more than fine, I've played through The Disappearance of Ethan Carter, several hours of 80 days, 1,5 hours of Final Fantasy VI, 1 hour of Primordia (2d mouse driven adventure game) and 2 hours of Blood Dragon. With the exception of Blood Dragon I got into groove with the controls in no time. With Blood Dragon it took about an hour until I got proficient enough to not constantly die like a bitch, by the 2 hour mark I was in a shape where I could with a bit of luck knock over an outpost on medium difficulty with only a few attempts.

I'm looking forward to hearing about your Steam Link review.

I've heard of some people having frame rate issues with theirs, but I wonder if that's because they have shitty routers.

>>57157
KB+M for FPS, no other substitute other than some kind of Zapper gun.


I mostly use this controller for playing 3rd person or side scrolling games.

>>57161
So it seems like it's more intended to provide a way to control PC games with a gamepad, than as a full replacement for a regular twin stick gamepad.

How is the D-pad for stuff like fighting games/platforming?

>>57167
I don't play platformers or fighters but I feel the d-pad is not suitable for that type of use. Use a controller with a real dpad or a fightstick.

I've been using the steam controller for quite a while now. I've played over 20 hours worth of different games using the controller and I'm still finding new neat features and tricks to improve the experience. The main thing that I've noticed is that I'm flat out playing more when I'm sitting on the couch, I don't alt-tab constantly and break the flow so to speak, because I would have to get off my ass to do it. If I have to find a guide or something I can use the built in Steam Browser with the controller. for the first time in years I've made a decent dent in my backlog. Also I've heard the gyro is awesome when playing racing games, going to test that out next.

>>57182
>Warhammer
Totally. It had promise starting out, but they missed out on a LOT of opportunities with it and played it safe.

>I also went through stints in Shadowbane, Darkfall, Mortal, etc. It's always so disappointing to see these ambitious MMOs fail so hard though, mainly because the MMO market at large is always afraid of games based on open world PvP and PKing
Agreed, I am a big fan of Shadowbane, Darkfall, and mortal as well. But you are correct, a lot of developers are afraid to take risks and they really really need to start. Because we need to shake off the comfort of WoW clones.

>I guess my main issue is just that MMOs are always so controlled and on-rails these days, I just like the concept of every player having nearly absolute freedom to do what they want.
My thoughts exactly. Theres a new one coming out tht might be right up your alley called "The Repopulation" or something to that effect. Its basically Fallen Earth + SWG pre CU on an alien planet.

Also Camelot Unchained is coming along nicely (Im in the Alpha).

Check out the classes (as they have been revealed. Some are really fucking cool (Im looking at you Black Rider).

>>57182
Right. That's why I never got into WoW much or anything either. There's really no "game" to it. If you die you go get your body and your stuff is a little damaged. Hurt your pocketbook, which is directly influenced by how much you play. Everything about it was designed to be a time sink to keep you wrapped up and paying the subscription fee.
Tried the same stuff with Diablow 3 and it sucked. I'm not sure if Blizzard has the talent left who knows how to make a good non-MMO type game. Their Heroes of the Storm team actually got laid off after it went "gold" I guess, cuz they expected it to die off in short order.

>>57185
>Diablow
If you want a game that is what diablo 3 was supposed to be, check out Path of Exile and Grim Dawn.

PoE is everything diablo 3 should have been with a fucking nuts final fantasy 10 style skill tree.

Grim Dawn is made by the people who did titan quest, so its similar to that.

>>57186
I was playing PoE on and off until they revamped it. Yes. much better. Feels much more like DII, which in my mind is SUPERIOR to D3 in all respects.

My buddy just got grim dawn and I've been watching him stream over steam. Looks pretty cool.

>>57186
>>57190
>PoE
Seeing that in posts, I can't help but think Point of Existence rather than Path of Exile.

Point of Existence was awesome. Would pay heartily for a VR vietnam shooter.

>>56989
I always heard how shitty people were in this game.

Only now do I understand.

Major props to the few people who were cool though.

>>56990
Yeah. I really like DayZ and the concept but the morality mechanic is fucked. There's literally no incentive to not shoot on sight.

But anyway it's a definite illustration of the same thing as Walking Dead and games like The Last of Us portray; zombies are shitty, but the survivors are worse.

Cuz really, imagine what people who trample, mace, or shoot each other for a TV on Black Friday would do when we run out of food...

>>56990
>>56992
The edge on the Steam community forums is prime example of actual edginess. By no means is it the autistic bullshit with teleporting behind you to backstab you, but it's there alright. It doesn't fucking help that with every new update for SA that seemingly feeds into that mentality.

But if there's one thing that just makes me fucking hate SA all the more is how everyone attempts to justify the idiotically empty cities and "veteran" players wanting everyone else to go out hide out in the woods and farm. Would it fucking kill the devs and community to not have you on the verge of starvation when you first spawn?

Yeah, I'm disgruntled and shit.

>>56994
Yeah. Totally agree. From what I understand virtually all dev time as of late has been used to make console ports rather than actively work on the game itself.

Too many people sham at Day Z because a) it's a shitty game to play on the lowest of low graphics, and people would rather play Roblox alternatives or b) it's just really shitty in terms of community.

>>57173
>The Division beta code (main reason I ponied up)

I was hyped for The Division but after I played the abomination that was the Rainbow Six: Siege beta all my hype for it was killed.

>>57177
What is the problem with Siege? It seems to be a fun game for me.

>>57177
Weird, I enjoyed The Siege. In fact, most of the people I know who played it, enjoy it.

>UPlay


Mnyeh, I'll pass.

Pretty much any time I play MtG with the GF, she ends up winning.

>>57115
Doesn't matter. Played Magic.
I don't play much anymore since no one really plays around me. Can't stand the online client.

>>57127
I haven't played in a while either.

Two of the three local game shops for MtG closed so all the salty EDH players have funneled into the one store, which would be fine I suppose but I don't like EDH.

I used to play it a lot in tech school.

>playing mtg

Actually have an MTG commander deck, and some really old YGO stuff, but playing multiple cardgames at the same time gets real expensive real quick, so I'm just a huge casual when it comes to those two.

I got into it around Revised/4th Edition, Antiquities/Legends/Dark/Fallen Empires/Homelands/Ice Age... etc.

Quit around Urza's Saga. Chceked it out a couple times since, not really interested cuz of crap like OP, indestructible artifacts, etc.

You guys just made nostalgia typing out all the old sets. Wish I had all that money I spent on cards back too.

  War Thunder PS4 DS4 Controller Settings https://youtu.be/QzsVP71BmeI
A quick video showing how to change default controls to a scheme with full pitch roll control like you would get on a keyboard and mouse.

You can effectively pull snap rolls, scissors and other moves with this set up which you would otherwise be unable to do with the default controls.

Basically clear all controls set to simple and modify x, square, circle, and triangle to use shift button (L1) and you can then set up pitch and roll on the same keys (without shift button).

Credit to Maj_fox for pointing me to this set up.

The brotherhood are right though. Synths can't be trusted, certain phrases could make them go berserk.

Ghouls aren't people anymore, and will eventually go feral.

The average moron can't be trusted with high technology.

>>57118

>The brotherhood are right though. Synths can't be trusted, certain phrases could make them go berserk.

I've never actually seen a code phrase in F4 that made a Synth go apeshit, just ones that made them pass out. It's possible I just never saw it as I stopped playing a while back to wait for the GECK, but still. It's also a case of there's no reason you couldn't try to figure out how to remove those code phrases and just treat the ones that are already made as people. The Brotherhood doesn't want to do that.

>Ghouls aren't people anymore, and will eventually go feral.

The issue here is that it's never clear when a Ghoul will go feral, and many of them have lasted perfectly fine for hundreds and hundreds of years. If the Brotherhood wanted to heal the Ghouls that they could, make them human again, that would be a different case; giving them back their appearances and health would be undeniably a good thing. But they don't want to do that, they just want to kill 'em all.

>The average moron can't be trusted with high technology.

If we're talking all the various sorts of weapons of mass destruction that exist in the universe they might have a point, but what the Brotherhood practically ends up doing is preventing settlements from having easy access to medical technology, water purification, and the means to protect themselves from Raiders. If they followed the Midwestern style of trading basic firearms, ammunition, armor, and medical supplies that they can create in-house in exchange for food, water, and basic natural resources... they'd be a lot more sympathetic. But they don't, they just kinda show up, declare 'we are not your enemy' and then shoot anyone that gets in their way while taking all the best salvage regardless of what it is.

>>57119
>It's also a case of there's no reason you couldn't try to figure out how to remove those code phrases and just treat the ones that are already made as people.
They're literal robots. You can watch them being shit out off an assembly line.

>If the Brotherhood wanted to heal the Ghouls that they could
That would be none.


>If we're talking all the various sorts of weapons of mass destruction that exist in the universe they might have a point, but what the Brotherhood practically ends up doing is preventing settlements from having easy access to medical technology, water purification, and the means to protect themselves from Raiders

Excpet there's little to support this.

What you actually SEE paladins take form people is along the lines of power armor and lasers. And sure enough, the people you see running around with them outside the brotherhood most often are... gunners, who are a fucking menace. Or raiders. Hell, even the van graffs.

There's really no examples of a village having all their guns taken, stimpaks confiscated, and water purifiers shot to pieces. They don't want people haivng shit they could end the world with again.

I know the Brotherhood have always been assholes but the Outcasts and the Baby Maxson Brotherhood have become assholes willing to spread their shit onto everyone else. The Brokeass Hills Bros were mostly content to stay in their basement bunker and jack off.

And they are Enclave 2.0 because they have many of the same goals and attitudes as the somewhat nicer non-genocidal version of the Enclave. People in the Enclave like Colonel Autumn didn't want to exterminate everyone, just every one who didn't look human except the experiments they made themselves. They wanted to use their advanced technology to dominate the peoples of the wasteland though unlike the Brotherhood they were more willing to share, like them trading laser pistols to New Reno mobsters.

The Baby Maxson Brotherhood is the same, arguably worse. The same genocidal views towards everyone who doesn't meet their standard of human, and willing to use their tech to dominate the people. They are arguably worse because the Enclave had intentions of using their tech to rebuild America, to help the wasteland fucks who weren't ghouls or mutants while the Brotherhood is content to use the wastelanders as resources for food and recruits but not to actually give any help back.

>>57118
>The brotherhood are right though. Synths can't be trusted, certain phrases could make them go berserk.

The Bros don't distrust the Synths because they sometimes get a BSOD and kill a bunch of people (fucking Windows ME) but hate them because they don't fit their definition of life. They hate the Synths because they don't believe a machine can have free will, don't believe something that wasn't crapped out a mom's cooch can be really alive, and most certainly hate the fact the tech is in someone elses hands.

>Ghouls aren't people anymore, and will eventually go feral.

Ghouls are people still, just really, really ugly zombie looking people. And there is no evidence that all ghouls eventually go feral considering there have been pre-war ghouls around throughout the series that remained sane despite constant exposure to rads or little rad exposure.

Except the BoS hasn't made any attempts to bring the Commonwealth under its control in any meaningful way. The only "settlements" they fucking curbstomp into the ground are factions ones, the Institute and Railroad. Hell, if they were complete genocidal Enclave assholes like you claim them to be, they would have already set out to annex Diamond City , take over Vault 81, and have Liberty Prime shit nukes atop of Good Neighbor. Admittedly, this could change with future DLCs but we have yet to see.

If anything, the Commonwealth as a whole is quicker to gain benefits from the BoS destroying raider & super mutant camps, feral ghoul infestations, and not kidnapping people at random to turn into BoS soldiers.

>The Bros don't distrust the Synths because they sometimes get a BSOD and kill a bunch of people (fucking Windows ME) but hate them because they don't fit their definition of life. They hate the Synths because they don't believe a machine can have free will, don't believe something that wasn't crapped out a mom's cooch can be really alive, and most certainly hate the fact the tech is in someone elses hands.

While the definition of real life vs synthetic life is a part of the BoS's justification of purging synths, it's not the main motivator when compared to the Institute literally restarting the whole process of destroying the world again. Have you not heard the Institute hijacking the radio to broadcast shitty polarizing propaganda?

>And even if the average wastelands can't be trusted with power armor, lasers, or mini-nukes (they can have my Fat man tactical nuclear catapult when they pry it from my warm, radioactive charred fingers) that doesn't excuse denying life saving medical technology or tech that could improve lives.

I don't think they really care about the tech you can carry around on yourself, even if it is mini-nukes. They're more concerned about Mass Fusion and Institute tech running amok.
