Reply to I know absolutely nothing about gaming monitors but I want one. Any experts on here can tell me if this is a good buy or not? Thank you! by DugBingo951

32” seems a little large for a 16:9 1440p, and it’s a VA that isn’t curved. How far back will you be sitting from it? If you’re too close, you’ll be able to see the pixels; and the colors might be wonky at the edges of the screen. If you’re far enough away, it’ll probably be fine.

Reply to Atomic Heart Is Amazing by [deleted]

atomic heart felt like a lazy attempt to capture the bioshock atmosphere. the first hour was cool for world building purposes. same shock n awe rapture initially had in bioshock.

however,

SOUND: for being a russian/soviet union based game, the voice acting is just pure lazy. even if everyone is anti-russia right now you could at least make an attempt to SOUND russian like metro. every lime said in the game sounds like the people are falling asleep reading their lines. and their is SO much pointless expository dialogue that literally means nothing.

COMBAT: the combat is janky, very repetitive, and overall unimpressive. the way the enemies combat is cool, the way the player does isnt.

PUZZLES: game decides its scorn i guess and you have to solve a puzzle every minute on the minute. im okay with puzzles usually but to jam one in EVERYWHERE ends up making them more so inconveniences than puzzles.

CUTSCENES: the camera work and overall direction of the cutscenes are just.. confusing??? half the time idk what the fuck is going on even with explanation because they're just that bad. they play out like a poorly funded action movie.

UNORIGINAL: game rips off a TON from games like bioshock, generation zero, etc. it may feel refreshing but this game is highly uninspired.

GAMEPLAY: the game runs like this, get objective, get inconvenienced several times, roadblock, break roadblock, find objective, backtrack. it gets super repetitive and just mildly frustrating. not to mention it has a semi-linear open world with no reason for it (like halo infinite) other than for the sake of being open world.

i was hyped for the game, it sounded refreshing and something we needed but it feels like a more fleshed out generation zero with a massive homage to bioshock imo.

Reply to Who is the the most EVIL video game villain? by Paris333

FFT's Vormav.

He personally puts his country into a civil war to raise the in-universe equivalent of Satan from the dead, which simply involves getting enough people killed. He does this from the FFT Vatican and winds up killing the FFT Pope.

Did I mention he involves his only two children in the plot by throwing them in front of the main character, fully expecting him to kill them? Because he does, and Ramza winds up killing one of them. He has no remorse over this.
