re: Sony files patent for system to let AI play games for you

[quote]With how many people choose to watch people play games rather than playing or experiencing it themselves[/b], I imagine this is trying to appeal to those people who can have a similar experience. I can see people letting the AI take control on a hard boss or puzzle they can't solve.[/quote]

re: Hardest class or topic you had in high school?
Posted by BulldogXero on 4/21/24 at 5:43 pm
AP English Literature. The hardest class I've ever taken in my lifem. I think the teacher got a sense of satisfaction in making that class unnecessarily difficult.
One day she brought a king cake to class and told us we could have a piece once we finished our quiz. Our quiz was 5 questions. ...

re: Games you have the most hours in
Posted by BulldogXero on 4/9/24 at 8:53 am
I have almost 800 hours in FXIV. I probably have twice that in WoW. I'm sure I have hundreds of hours in NCAA Football 14.
As far as single player games, it's probably not that impressive. I have around 120 in Assassin's Creed Odyssey, but that's me completing all of the "main" tasks and all o...

I think any time you put a piece of geometry in front of you and the boss and it just makes a beeline towards you, getting stuck in the geometry and just relentlessly attacking nothing but air perfectly encapsulates the issue I have with some of these bosses.
Some of them never seem to have to wo...

Once you get into Chapters 2 and 3 the game starts to feel a lot more like a Soulslike or at least like Stranger in Paradise where the fodder enemies are easier but the bosses are massive difficulty spikes that don't play by the same rules as the player character, and I'm at least 5 levels above the...
re: Just finished Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
Posted by BulldogXero on 4/3/24 at 8:44 am
I don't necessarily think that's an unpopular opinion Tears of the Kingdom is a bigger/better version of BotW.
I liked BotW's intro better though.
Some things annoyed me with Tears of the Kingdom such as the requirements to upgrade armor. I should not have to stand on the back of a Dragon fo...

It's a mechanic that adds nothing to the game.

re: Oblivion fans check in
Posted by BulldogXero on 4/1/24 at 12:24 pm
Oblivion and Skyrim have better combat than Morrowind, but Morrowind's combat isn't that bad once you get a few hours in.
Most people complain about constantly missing attacks against enemies who are directly in front of you, but that problem mostly goes away as you level up and become more profi...

There's something to this game. I don't know if it 100% nails what it's going for, but it really grows on you.
I don't dislike the idea of limited/no fast travel, but I'm not sure why the game gives you quests to go halfway across the map, and then you get there, and there's a side quest that ma...

I'm convinced that the best way to play Oblivion is to turn the difficulty slider all the way down (or at least down to a certain extent) and not worry about min/maxing your build.
Oblivion moreso than Morrowind or Skyrim seems to demand players plan out their builds in advance...

I've been stuck at the final phase of the last boss for 4 hours. I get his HP down to 10% and I fail the DPS check at the end every single time.
I guess I'm supposed to stagger him but it's almost impossible to hit him because of all the knockback....

I am enjoying it more as I continue to play it. The open world is a lot of fun and is rewarding to explore.
It seems that the game gives you a lot of healing options, and most missions I have done so far give you 1 or 2 buddies that can fight with you
I still think shoehorning soulslike mech...
