Okay so going through the DLC properly, I kind of wish the main storyline expansions weren't situated as save states separate from the vanilla game, since it removes the majority of stuff that players have gathered over their playthrough and it feels a bit constrained. There are probably parts where maybe the difficulty might be botched for players decked out in stat-boosting outfits, but I guess what I'm trying to say is that it would have been more awesome if it was more persistent in the game world. Maybe not Nightmare at North Point (though honestly I think its a bit weak in terms of content), but Year of the Snake could definitely have been integrated into the main game, I think.

Face level 9. Oh yeah. Cheap ass sports cars!
Face level 8's buff to Face time is ridiculous. You can tackle lardass grapplers to the ground, mount them and pound their face in until they're out. And nobody can touch you while you do it. And you don't have to deal with any of their shit.
It is civilisation.
I ground out face 8 to 9 in the highest level fight club. By the last fight there were splotches of blood all over the arena, it was like a splatterhouse. Then I bought a bunch of cars.
But I still have one more to buy.
I need another 100k.
Time to beat more heads in.

This game is a ton of fun to play. The melee combat, shooting, story, driving and characters were all awesome. But it is funny to talk about the stuff that doesn't always work. :P
Fun fact, during Year of the Snake, whenever Wei is getting communications from Police HQ, his mouth is moving during their dialogue and his own. This leads me to believe Wei's time as an undercover Triad cop has driven him mildly insane, his incredible survival skills guiding him from mission to mission while having conversations with himself, much like Chuck Norris in Invasion USA. He doesn't need to be told where law breakers are, he just knows.

I kung fu kicked the drunk in the park for public urination. The game's mission designers agreed with me with the title of the sidequest, "Urine Trouble."

I would have liked there to be the ability to choose to permanently side with the triads or the police at some point in the game.

Well, aren't you Mr. Goodie-two-shoes model policeman officer.
I briefly considered adding the obvious but it broke the flow.
Just consider it a given.
Unconscious means they're still alive.
Alright so I'll be literal then. I briefly thought of adding some further lines that would clearly indicate how many times Wei kills people in the game but thought it would break up the flow of the post and be less humorous, you know when people try to explain why a joke is funny.

So I was replaying this game on the 360 today and hijacked one of the money vans. Instant 3-star police response, yadda yadda yadda.
Then something... happened.
A song I don't recall hearing at any other point playing the game came on, and I know I heard "Jesus" and other religious stuff in there. As I'm escaping the cops in my stolen van full of money, shooting my pursuers in the face and blowing their tires out, causing their police cruisers to flip and explode with the occupants still inside, I'm listening to this schmaltzy Christian tune.
Biggest what the fuck moment I've had in a video game in a long time.
And the weird thing is that normally I roleplay a Wei Shen who doesn't fuck with the cops because he's on the right side of the law. In this particular chase though, I decided to go for the achievement for shooting out a policeman's tires during a pursuit.
It's like the game was Jesus-shaming me for it.

Hey, so I just picked this up on Steam not too long ago during a sale.
Is there a particular recommended setting in terms of v-sync that is best for mouse control? I don't have a gamepad. Do I want to bite the bullet and get one, or is this playable with mouse?
I was compromised by enemy action.

Yeah, turns out playing with just a mouse is near-impossible. Mouse is slaved to camera and it doesn't really track turn-movement like tomb raider - limited on foot and not at all in cars. Throttle is binary too, on a keyboard.

Yeah playing with the mouse is no problem at all. However, I will say it is a MUCH better idea not to touch the mouse when you are driving. If you just leave it alone you'll have a much easier time.
Throttle is always binary on a keyboard so that's nothing new. Just need to practice or plug in a controller.
Now Castlevania Lords of Shadow on the other hand, is almost impossible to do kb/m combo. I pulled it off, but not before suffering many, many, many deaths and failed QTE's.
A wired 360 controller or a Xbox One controller plus a regular micro USB cable are great options, and they should work out of the box for a ridiculous amount of games.

Yeah, this is what I was missing, thank you. That and I had some conflicting mouse software issues, turned that all off and it seems golden now.
As someone who feels they got the full experience on PC, with story DLC and high res texture packs, not really sure what a remastered Sleepy Dawgs would be. Hopefully not just a new, dirtier faced Wei Shen.

Probably the same thing United Front Games did for the Xbox One version of Tomb Raider - which is to say, all DLC, high res texture packs, and updated character models (and maybe physics?)
Sounds to me like they're just putting in time for their eighth-gen development experience for Triad Wars
Hmm. That doesn't assuage my fears that Triad Wars is some sort of free to play garbage
It's the title. "Triad Wars" sounds like a companion app for the actual game that you boop to make numbers go up.
So for storyline, I'm kinda hoping Wei Shen Motherfucka goes rogue and we play a rookie sent after him.
Because Wei already killed all the bad guys.
Either die a hero...
Wei goes rogue, but gets sent after himself as a deep-cover agent.
The Triads go batshit trying to figure out why the hell the boss is kicking their asses as the boss and also as the cops. They end up too terrified to even turn themselves in, and resort to becoming the premiere model citizens to avoid both problems.
Wei is completely unaffected by the dichotomy and is totally chill the entire time.

Also, jumping off a high surface toward a dude and hitting x, does the ong-bak double knee to face :-)
Time to find me a dude and a high place!
I don't know about you but I think I'm a terrible cop.
I laughed because yeah, he's actually pretty much right about that
I shot protesters in the groin with tear gas grenades so I could steal their signs.
Then I hit people with the signs.
Best cop.
Why I fear the ocean.
My only critique is they didn't let you jump through the air firing TWO guns!
Well, they gotta save something for the sequel!
