A lot of people when they see the graphics and the genre will dismiss it as "another survival game". In fact this is not typical survival game. For the most parts it's a shooter with some RPG, strategy, light crafting and base building. I played before it was released on Steam for around 10 h. Then i lost my save file. When the game eventually got on Steam, i start playing it again, but now i know what to do and where to go and i reached the point where i was before for around 4 h. In the beginning it's a little bit hard (not sure if it's the right word) to know what is the best thing to do. Maybe you're just oversaturated with this type of games.

P.S. If you couldn't tell i really love the game. I even made 14 min review about Survivalist :D

the game isnt hard it has a tiresome grindy experience (for my taste).

there is a thin balance between necessary action for survivability and just making it over grindy and tiresome.

for example the need to gather resources is acceptable, been able to gather 1-2 planks of wood for a run is not (same thing with ammo/food etc)

The driving in IV is good once you just learn how to drive. In san andreas was easy, although unrealistic. In IV they wanted to be more realistic and ended being weird and strange. You can drive well at the end, but the learning path... Ohhh boy, so many crashes!!!

Just thought about another really dissappointing game for me: Skyrim. After really enjoying Oblivion (I put a lot of time in that one), I thought I would like Skyrim as well. I was never so wrong. The mechanics just didn't work for me and the menus (inventory etc) were just terrible to navigate through (way too focused on console, using mouse with is was a nightmare). And then there was the dissappearing companions (or whatever they are called), or them getting stuck all the time.

I hear ya about the UI. I can't even play Skyrim without the SkyUI mod (http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/3863). But even then, some design decisions are awful. You mean to use a quick-heal spell, I need to wade through menus to change my equipment loadout, then cast it real time, then go back to the menus to put back what I had been using in combat? Why is there no hotkey to heal?

GTA IV drives quite well. Actually a pretty good improvement over San Andreas and Vice City. Also, GTA IV has one of the best protagonists in video game history. You wanna talk sand-box action games with bad driving? Red faction Guerrilla and Just Cause are both pretty fucking dreadful in that aspect, but the crown of shittiness has to go Saints Row 2. That game is virtually unplayable on the PC with mouse and keyboard.

The game itself is a mod (obviously) meant to be used to create and make use of custom player content. While your statement can be made for most games this is not in the same category as those. Garry's Mod is only as fun as the community allows it to be and if you do not find any of the many many many different ways to play it fun then you can literally make something from the ground up to help fill your one specific niche.

Well there are a lot of junk games floating around that can easily qualify. But I'll throw out Dungeon Siege 1. It was a total snoozefest. It's either a bad Diablo clone or a bad Baldur's Gate clone, I can't decide which.

Halo 1. Now I'm a big fan of the 1990s style shooters where you just run from point to point and kill everything in the way. But Halo 1 has horribly linear design and half the rooms look identical..

Now for some junk games that nobody's ever heard of:

The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle for the NES. The game looks abysmal for a game made in 1992. It's only fifteen minutes long in theory, but the controls are so busted and the hit detection so awkward it'll take a miracle to get past level 2.

Home Alone 2 for the NES is another stinking pike for generally the same reason.

Mad Max for the NES. It's a bad driving game and a bad overhead style game, with a hideous color palette and two songs that loop continuously.

Operation Body Count is a really awful Wolfenstein 3D clone. It's set in the UN Buildings where these terrorists take over and you have to clear them out. The first seven or so levels take place in the sewers underground where you shoot rats and swamp monsters.

Shadow: War of Succession is a Mortal Kombat wannabe on the 3DO. Miserable controls and hit detection. When you finish a match, the words "FINISH HIM" appear on screen as in Mortal Kombat...only there are no finishing moves.

Technocop for the Genesis is a bad Roadblasters clone and bad platformer all in one. The only thing remotely techno about this cop is that his gun can shoot a net.

Virtuoso is an awful third person shooter, on both PC and 3DO. For a game called Virtuoso and featuring a musician, the music sure is awful.

Remember that movie Beethoven back from the mid 1990s about that dog? There was an SNES game and DOS game based on it. Don't play either of them.

King's Bounty is a game series I've played a bit of so far and can't get into. Why? It has a garbage gameplay mechanics which is an issue because you need gold to buy units, units can die very easily in any battle you get into and gold isn't infinite. This makes the game have an effective "loser" scenario without telling you it because there is no game over screen/scenario. I won't go into detail since I'm kind of tired and it's a bore to write paragraphs about how bad the "permanent punishment" mechanic is. Gameplay is kind of the only technical purpose in this game. You can't progress the game with music.

Wow. I've been playing King's Bounty since the original one back on my Apple II. I have that version on GOG, and the new version on DVD and later rebought it on Steam.

It's one of my absolute favorites. I don't find it has an effective loser scenario at all. It's an RPG and turn based strategy game, and I find it to be pretty well balanced.

Interesting to hear other perspectives.

I find that amazing to hear as I consider myself a mediocre player but not one that loses at many games on easier difficulties without understanding why. I got around 75% through King's Bounty : The Legend and I was at the point where I had nearly no gold left and I couldn't win any of the battles so... I effectively lost. I haven't tried the older ones but from what I understand, they are way harder than the modern ones. The later games haven't really changed so when you get into that situation, all you can do is restart. I personally don't like to do the exact same stuff over and over so restarting is below giving up on my list of options.

EDIT: Also, if you lose or even surrender a battle, you lose all of your units and some gold. So, y'know, that quite an issue, especially if you don't want to save-scum the game. Somebody in the steam forums had even said they restarted a total of 3 times before they got a "good" grasp on the game.

Might&Magic is just pure skill and I'm not very good at it. It takes a lot of practice and it has similar mechanics to King's Bounty. The way units work in battles, 6 spots for unit each, you buy and upgrade stuff in your fortresses(e.g. you can upgrade the defenses which add more towers in defense battles). Heroes work different in that you choose an upgrade when you level up, you don't have a skill-tree. The world is littered with items and enemies(that don't chase you) just like King's Bounty. I'd say try it but make sure to remember that you have to get used to it and, well, practice. The AI, even on easy modes, likes to rush like crazy. I don't have the patience to deal with that BS.

Do note that I am talking about the older ones, specifically HOMM 3.

well you have to carefully build your avatar and pay attention for losses and artifacts purchases, it is hard at first, but you learn over time..

few advice:

  • use same army types units (dont mix for example humans and undead)
  • when you get additional units from quest/joining you dont dismiss them save them on castles (use them for when you loses your armies or for hard battles when you know you will have a lot of casualties)
  • copy the good spells only (unless you have a lot of crystals)
  • you can bypass enemy's (make them chase you and just bypass them come back for them when you are stronger)
  • use the rage abilities...

Yeah, see, that's a case of "Play like this or don't play at all" and I hate it. I'd rather play as I like, supposedly "suck" and then complain about it.

Also, in The Legend there was a skill in the Mind path that allowed you to have undead/demon alongside others without morale loss. Made for some great combos but they removed that for some reason. Makes the game harder to play since pure undead is specifically a horrible idea.

well its not "Play like this or don't play at all" you can go with several approaches but you should go with one way and not mix ways (most strategic/tactical games are like this) if you chose warrior path the stick to it same as mage same as melee army vs ranged one.

it is possible to build a hybrid hero but it will be harder as you have army limits and spell limits so...

well it did made the game unbalanced, living dont coup with the undead :-P

Well, tell that to the Steam Forums. Lots of people think that hybrid is the way to go since it gives warriors attack/defense bonuses as well as debilitation spells.

lots also think that pure build is better :-)

that is not the point, i didnt say not to use other skills from the other trees on specific build, i said stick to your path, no point to go for spells as warrior as it requires a lot of investment from the mage tree and on int, same thing for mage no point on going for focusing on the might tree and att, for that kind of build you have the paladin which is a mix~

  • mage should focus on spells mag and int
  • warrior should focus on rage att and def
  • paladin will have both worlds but wont be "best" in none so prefer att and mag or def and mag (better to go for support spells with him)

so warrior can have spells but it aint his strong suit, same as army might aint one of the mage.

and about difficulties

warrior is the easiest to play and mage is the hardest, so think what you want the most and go with it :-)

Yeah, but it's not fun for me. 99% of the time, you WILL get losses. You don't get to choose what units spawn, as well as scrolls, so you don't get to say "Oh, yeah, I want the slow spell!" Lots of people have said in the Steam Forums of the newer games that the game is built around managing your army and making sure you don't suffer too much and that apparently means micro-managing your hero to include a healthy mix of army buffs & spells, even if it's a warrior (which is difficult since you waste a lot of mind runes on intelligence skills).

These types of games are just a monotonous rinse-and-repeat to me. I'd rather be able to beat a game in one go than have to restart several times.

i played a lot of slimier games but thats aint the point, it isnt the same as a "Noob FPS player vs. Pro FPS player in TF2".

its not a reflex subject, nor your pc rig/ping, its how you think and plan :-)

turn base strategy games are slow pasted, you need to think tword the end of your goal not just the next "fight", its the same with RPG games or any type of management game (not necessary war type).

dont play those games as you play FPS games, chose your character, see the possibilities you have to develop it, see what fits you the most and then plan it, think how you are going to fight is your center of strategy is brute army force or destructive magic, or a mix (army with support spells).

and take the time to experiment save a game and do a fight few time with different strategy's, learn what way is best for you...

...Which is exactly my point. To experiment and get a grasp of the game, you need to start over and over. The game doesn't allow you to re-do battles and saving constantly is asinine and pointless in how the game is (e.g. no repeating battles, no choice making, etc.)

in every game you need to experiment so i dont see your point, every game has a different mechanics, and in every game you need to start over at the beginning to grasp them especially on RPG based games (even on FPS) unless you pick the very easy option.

and i dont understand, you can save at any time so what is the problem? (you also have auto and quick save)

e.g. no repeating battles, no choice making, etc

use saves. and do the buttle as many time you want.

and when did choices got into here :-D, are you sure we are talking on the same game?

it looks like you really hate this game...not every game have "choices" that really impact the story development, but there are choices to make here as, which avatar to take, how to develop him, what type of army, use rage or not,get marry or not small quest option etc

but if "choices" is your cup of tea why did you get into this game in the first place, this game is about character and army development - and the tactical fights (the story is quit good as well) :-)

It was just an example, choices can be in any game. There ARE choices in terms of who to side with for different rewards, too.

To like Kings bounty means you like reading long texts to get into the story and like having turn based battles and pick your army and enemies carefully i like that but i understand why someone wouldnt find it interesting

The borderlands games. shit story, ugly graphics, repetitive uninspired gameplay.

The transformers games for being... ugh... its like the epitome to me of generic gaming. Whenever I think of them I ACTUALLY start feeling depressed. They're such beige games... so utterly devoid of heart or creativity, to see them is to feel all joy sapped from my life... you know, like seeing a picture of kristen stewart. I think the transformers games are my most HATED of all games. I can't think of a game or set of games I hate more... I dislike borderlands franchise LESS than I do the transformers games... that's how much I hate these. A really BAD game you can at least laugh at or find its shitiness hilarious... but soulless, bland, generic, homogenised shit like transformers just... ugh... cant do it.

I see you have 50 hours in Borderlands 2 - I wanted to say it has awesome story with great characters, but then you really already had your impressions and made your choice. I'm a little sad to hear that, but people's taste aren't the same - at least RPG-wise we seem to like/respect the game games :D

I agree with the repetitiveness, but I like the graphics and the atmosphere. The story isn't particularly deep, but the world is somewhat interesting. I have only played Borderlands 1 though.

Yep, couldn't agree with you more. I had to force myself through the first one. The quests are repetitive, all the areas are the same, boring and dull (except the last one).
I don't see why anyone would play this game a second time because once you see it you've seen all the game has to offer.

You ever played Borderlands coop? It's way more fun that way in my opinion.

I also like the graphics, but I can see where opinions could differ.

It is a very fun series with friends though and the larger DLC is a must have. The biggest problem is to not play them out of order. Borderlands 2 kicks it predecessor's proverbial butt so Borderlands will feel bland if you play it afterwards and the Pre-sequel is so much of a let down you might not want to play the others.

FO1 is pretty under-developed compared to FO2 and that's me being nice. There's not a lot overall in FO1 compared to what it could have been. It's still "alright". Honestly, it seems like a demo to FO2 for me.

FO1 seemed for me as well as a try, if they could se successful with that. They made a lot of money, so they made the second game, with much more content and nore developed world - though hands-down, story-wise the first one was also perfect. Later Fallouts couldn't create such a powerful and really intresting enemy as the Master, and I will always respect the first game for that :)

Undertale? I'd really like to hear why. I don't accept "it's overhyped" as a reason :P

combat? the game isn't about combat it's just one big comedy from what I have seen is pretty funny but I guess hasn't got the same humor

Awww, that's too bad. But not everbody can like everything I guess. I like the fact that you actually tried it before having an opinion :)

That not a reason to hate it, games are meant to be hard to challenge you & super meat boy is a game that is meant to be really really hard

hmm yeah some games just fluff about "entertaining" other games like Pong, Pacman, Super meat boy are challenging, games use to always be challenging so good to see games like Super meat boy come out these days

Well the first part of Fez IS great, I have to admit. The part with the switching sides of a cube to figure out how to get to the exit. There are some very clever puzzles done with that. But it's later on that you discover you can't get to certain places without using a code. And that's when the B.S. shows up. Let me just say that it took a team of people to solve it. And the solution is something that a non-English speaking person would never get. There's no way the average gamer is going to beat this game without a FAQ, unless he's a Mensa high IQ person. And that is why I hate this game. It tricks us into thinking it's a cute puzzle platformer with a unique gimmick. But that's not all it is. The clock tower thing is total BS. The astronomy thing is total BS. The bell tower is total BS. It just ruins the game. IT would have been great if the Dev had just stuck with the original puzzles.
