Ok, I'll reinstall my copy and record the screen, because my last attempt to play that game had characters T-posing in moving wagons, teleporting around, falling through the world, and the physics seeming to run in reverse. It was a complete nightmare and put me off the series for good.
And I should note, I was playing the game after they gave it away for free (years after release).
I am somewhat intrigued by god eater 3. I really enjoyed monster hunter and adding more rpg to that could be fun. I'm not usually a huge fan of anime stories, and it seems like it has a very anime story.
on the other hand, I tend to like anime tiddy, and it seems to also have that in spades
has anyone played it and have a recommendation?
So I’ve only played the first two, but in the small mon-hun clone subgenre they are probably the best. The plot is maximum anime stupid, but there is actually a continuous plot and the RPG elements are well done. Combat is also pretty good. There’s less weapon options than MH but there’s a lot of customisation elsewhere. The monster designs are kinda neat and really unlike anything in monster hunter itself.

I'm not saying I don't believe you. It's just that this is the first time I heard of any issues with the port, especially this extreme, so I thought that the statement that the port is broken and doesn't work is not correct, is all. Sorry it didn't work for you.
The story DLC for AC3 is still pretty broken on the PC. Even the positive reviews for the story DLC on Steam mention getting often pretty major bugs.
This DLC is a crash fest and delirious, but I loved it. It adds a nice story unlike the original game, and you have superpowers which are really cool, because how else you're gonna fight against the magic golden apple thing? A warning though: You will experience a lot of crashing which doesn't happen in part 2 and 3, and even an unfixed glitch some people reported about the last mission, which didn't happen to me. This DLC seems very rushed so the quality testing is obviously not there, but the story and playability is really nice. To activate this, you must enter the code given by Steam inside the "Additional content" part of the game, it does not auto activate which is really stupid cmon Ubisoft.

Patch notes for Sunless games are always a delight
When leaving the presence of the Pansekretis, if you were already in possession of your liver you will no longer have an additional liver inserted into you.
It is no longer possible to become trapped in the Trials of the Dead, however narratively appropriate that might be.
The Repentant Devil no longer lies about his qualifications when seeking employment.
In this case, where “Love” actually means “squeezing every red cent we can from this audience”
I dunno they do a ton of free content updates and are constantly sending me email offering me free GTA bucks. I think the F2P on that game gets kind of a bad rap.
GTA V makes mad bucks, they don't lose anything much by giving out free shit. I think the main beef folk have it is how predatory so many F2P games are. Plus it's Rockstar, and they deserve as much charity as I give CD Projekt Red.

This is where subjectivity of the category can play a huge part. When I read “labor of love” I think of a game that maybe isn’t doing gangbusters profit, but still puts out content. Stuff like No Mans Sky, where they just kept fixing it, or maybe Warframe, since it seemed to fall off the radar for quite a while and then they brought it back to being popular.
GTA might keep putting out content, but it doesn’t feel like they’re doing it as a labor of love. Overwatch is the same for me: I love the extra stuff that they’ve added since launch, and it just keeps coming, but I wouldn’t call it a labor of love.

@SLyM let me do some digging tonight. I'm pretty sure I have a DRM-free version of one of the first two you can give a run (not pirated; just via GOG or similar without DRM)
I played a few minutes of God Eater 2, the vocabulary immediately turned me off. Granted, that was just a few months(?) before MH:W came out, so I might have been less patient than I could have been, but I couldn't deal with it

I agree with this. I don't give them a lot of credit generally (and GTA Online's online infrastructure is an absolute failure), but I do find that as F2P games go it's not a particularly predatory one and it's definitely realistic to play it without ever spending any real currency.

I think this is entirely correct TBH. It's a really ridiculous game to give that prize, it makes a fucking fortune. I'd probably give it to Total Warhammer 2 (of the games I played that year). CW consistently puts out free updates and patches new features onto old factions, and every paid DLC comes with something that's 100% free.

The plot is that the world ended, gods are bad and hungry, and you have a magic bracelet which lets you eat gods and also carry person-sized weapons. It's Monster Hunter with a party. And, incredibly, nobody has mentioned how you can design your own bullets. Make them curve around to your heart's content! Make them split apart! Make them heal bullets and then shoot your friends with them.

To be a little less flippant about the lore; basically the planet Earth has had enough of humanity and wants to start the whole world over again. To do this it creates monsters called Aragami out of nanomachines called Oracle Cells. Oracle Cells can devour anything, and Gaia's endgame is a grey-goo scenario where all life gets devoured and remade. Humanity fights back by injecting children with Oracle Cells to create supersoldiers and arming then with artificial weapon-shaped Aragami called God-Arcs.

Bullet editing always seemed underwhelming though as anything fancy got ridiculously expensive to fire and drastically underperformed a shotgun to the face.
I have a question and it may just end up referring me to another thread
how on earth do people find good iOS games? Metacritic is functionally useless for this
Other than the threads here, whoever writes for appunwrapper.com seems to have the same tastes in puzzle/adventure games that I do so for me that's been a decent source of recommendations; pockettactics.com if you like tactics-y games, though they like their games more difficult than I do; toucharcade.com is a decent general game reviewing site, too.
so I'm playing this Devil May Cry 5 demo and it's...very odd
I don't have much history with the series other than playing DmC (which rules) and trying to play the older ones and finding them lacking, but there's certainly SOMETHING compelling about this, but the thing I find odd is that it seems very old-school, something about it feels like a PS2 game
the best I could describe this game is a blend of DMC3's gameplay with DmC's tone

Word of mouth here on the forums, which is pretty much how I find all of my good games these days.
Like, the Hearthstone and Slay the Spire threads in G&T directed me towards Dream Quest, the G&T Steam thread got me interested in Loren, etc.

When I meant continuous I mean like there’s connecting tissues between most missions, talking to NPCs and cutscences and so on .
