  • Jake_Cake [he/him]togamesIs The Last of Us Part II good?

    It's really good and improves upon the first game. It was review bombed like crazy by chuds when it came out, so just ignore the user score on metacritic.

    I'm actually about to replay it since it's been a while and Grounded difficulty is out, so if anything speaks to the game's quality it's that.


  • I'd say the unofficial patch, the unofficial patch plus, and uncut wasteland. They won't change anything besides bug fixes and restoring cut content, so the experience will still be vanilla if that's what you're going for.

    If you haven't modded the game before you'll also need:

    I can't speak for everyone, but I feel that if you grew up in the 90s you probably watched a bunch of stuff that came out in the 80s since your parents would have owned/liked a lot of stuff from then. I always felt like having nostalgia for the time right before you were born was common because of that.

    Re:Zero is the best for subverting the genre in its current state and not being another boring power fantasy.

    That, and the episode "From Zero" never fails to make me cry.

    WOTC is brilliant because of how they addressed the complaints from vanilla.

    Everyone complained that having turn limits in almost every mission was annoying and restrictive. Instead of getting rid of them they added enough new mission types to dilute how many you had to deal with. Then, on top of that you resistance orders to help you out with those missions when you can't avoid them.

    XCOM 2 WOTC with the tactical legacy soundtrack is peak XCOM. In one moment the game is a stress inducing nightmare as you struggle to keep your failing campaign alive against increasingly overwhelming odds. In another, it's the most ridiculous power fantasy ever as XCOM rolls through, alpha strikes every pod, blows up half the settlement they were supposed to protect, and leaves a shitload of dead cops ADVENT in their wake.
