What's your favorite game released this year so far? These two tie for me.
>>
dark souls 3
>>
>>341686568

Doom by far.

I thought Overwatch would be it, but I'm kind of over it already.
>>
Bloodborne. Still pham
>>
Doom is great, I believe shooters can be fun again

Uncharted 4 is pretty good too
>>
Its kinda weird when I read it back to myself but the games that came out this year that I enjoyed the most were

DOOM by fucking far
Trackmania Turbo was loads of fun but ended up not finishing it
Bombshell was a pleasant little romp
Just Cause 3 was a great open world time and was consistently bombastic until this awful jet mission made me stop playing.

Mirror's edge is bad for one big reason, they made it way too futuristic and advanced than the first game. No company or business would make a roof of a building with glass and smooth polished concrete. and have spacey hover drones and holograms all over. And even the most clausterphobic city in the world you can't run and jump from building and building.
>>
Fire Emblem Conquest
Havent bought any game this year exceot that one and dork souls 3 which i just sold a week ago. Imma wait til Kingdom Hearts this winter, then maybe pick uo cawadoody on the cheap.
>>
I haven't played all of them to let you know what my favorite would be, because that would mean I'd have to play every released game to come to that conclusion.

See what I did there?
>>
>>341688118
That's a weird complaint. I think you're focusing too much on something that's pretty negligible though. It's just fantasy after all.
>>
>>341688118
You also can's shoot demons with plasma guns in real life either, who the fuck cares if a video game is realistic if the mechanics are fun?

>>
>>341686568
Is Doom worth the full 60 or should I just play more Brutal Doom?
>>
>>341686568
Mirror's Edge Catalyst was shit
Doom SP was fantastic

You're opinion is terrible, OP
>>
>>341688493

That's my main reason for not liking it. And it's a prequel that makes no sense.

it's a reboot

Nah, MEC is really fun.

Same company who are making blacks soldiers in ww1 and black germans. Blacks didn't even fight much in ww2 let alone one.
>>
>>341689135

Fuck off EA.
>>
>>341686568
DOOM hands down, and the multiplayer is fun as fuck on it. Glad they are actually supporting the PC playerbase
>>
>>341687536
oh god
>>
>>341686568
Doom. I liked Mirror's Edge too, but Doom was just super fucking solid. What else even came out this year?
>>
>>341686568
Catalyst is such fucking shit. It's literally just time trials and fetch quests and I actually liked the original game. They also removed the option to use guns and toned down the frequency of fighting.

Fucking garbage.
>>
>>341689248
I doubt you even played it, but what didn't you like about it? It's better than the first game in every way.
>>
Doom 4
Dragon's Dogma PC
Soul Axiom was fun as well.
>>
Off the top of my head for this year.

>Dark Souls 3
>Doom 4
>Fire Emblem Fates
>Star Fox Zero
>Digimon Cybersleuth
>Paper Jam

I've picked up Overwatch but haven't played it yet, don't know where that will end up.

It has the OST of the year so far for me as well

I played the DOOM demo and wasn't terribly impressed. It was fun but I wouldn't pay more then 20$ for a whole game of that and even then i'd rather spend the 20$ on something else
>>
>>341689801
First level isn't that great.
>>
>>341686568
1. GGXrdR just because i fucking love GG
2. D44M
3. SFV i feel like SFV would be 2nd but some things about the game feel unpolished. But its a normal Capcom fighter 2-3 installments/in this case patches it will be fine down the line. Not even balance patches just polishing the core game.

DaS3 is a honorable mention but i dunno im over it until the DLC hits its just boring and no boss feels like it took more then 2 playthroughs to master even Nameless King.
>>
>>341689565
>It's literally just time trials and fetch quests
That's what the first game was though. That's the whole point of Mirror's Edge, it's an immersive first person parkour game. Getting good and fast at the mechanics and at navigating the environment is what it's all about. You still have obstacles / rooms you have to figure out how to get past too.

>They also removed the option to use guns
This fits better with the game. It's not a shooter.

>and toned down the frequency of fighting
Not sure what you mean here, I don't recall doing any fighting really in the first game since I ran past everyone. This one actually makes you fight enemies all the time.
>>
>>341689602

How can you type with nigger dick so far in your throat?
>>
>>341686568
Doom but Mirror's Edge was very disappointing. You have to hold the jump button to run on walls very often. It made my figures hurt. There's also a grappling hook that me thinking "this is jumping the shark". And the story is all up in your face with this Big corporations are evil stuff. In my opinion the first one was a flawed master piece.
>>
>>341689801
>that spoiler
Same here, wasn't impressed either. Main problem for me is the level seem to be designed as a bunch of arenas with empty corridors linking to each one. Didn't feel like Doom to me, more like a Serious Sam or Painkiller. I'll just stick to the old Dooms instead.
>>
>>341689916
Even so I just don't think it's my thing.

I get that no real story and red and gray and brown environments is sorta DOOM's thing but I really like lore in games and varied environments and color usage. It has the codex's, obviously, but I don't think that will be enough to satisfy me.

I wish Halo wasn't the only FPS franchise around that has both those things.

>>341688685
>>341688713
Doom doesn't try to be grounded in reality though. At least not as much as Mirrors Edge
>>
>>341690921
Soon, anon. Just wait. M-master chief collection will come to pc, r-right?

>>341691141
I hope so, though I already own an xbone and MCC, so I mainly want it on PC just for 4k screenshots of the pretty skyboxes. halo 5's MP is actually really good as well, a shame the story is so shit.
>>
>>341690354
I don't really get what you mean about holding the button to wall run. I thought Catalyst controlled fine, arguably better than the original. Agreed about the unnecessary grappling hook and overwrought story, though.
>>
>>341690354
>>341691632

Everything in EA is getting a grappling hook, mirror's edge catalyst, battlefield 1, titanfall 2
>>
>>341691875
Uncharted and the upcoming CoD are getting grappling hooks, too.

It's the fad of the year.
>>
Tie between Total Warhammer and Doom

Dark Souls 3 and Hitman.

you sound like you're just hating it for arbitrary reasons. even when people point out your logic is flawed, you have no come back to those points.

it's a reboot. buildings being close together enough to run around on is not a valid point because that's literally what you do for pretty much half the game in the original. if you liked it then, why not now? as for drones and shit flying everywhere. that technology is in it's adolescence now. why wouldn't that be a big thing in some dystopian future? you're retarded.
>>
>>341689785
all DD needed was more maps and it wouldnt have tanked
>>
>>341692572
I haven't played Hitman since the first mission on release, even though I bought the full version. How's the new content been? How many new missions are out so far?
>>
>>341693496
Sapienza and Marrakesh are out, they're also bringing two new missions that change those areas quite a bit.
Sapienza is really really good (great level design and fun opportunities), Marrakesh didn't impress me as much but both are better than Paris.

If you haven't played since release then you've missed out on the time-limited elusive targets, which change things up a little and are a good excuse to revisit the game a few hours per week.
>>
Mirror's Edge was bad though.
>>
>>341694746
Mirror's Edge was fine
Mirror's Edge Catalyst was bad
>>
>>341695102
It's different, not bad. Like JSRF to JSR.

The only game I've played that came out this year was Fates: Birthright and I didn't like it.

so Fates: Birthright

So releasing the first id Tech without open source which John Carmack never wanted is 'supporting the PC fanbase' now?

I refuse to believe this isn't paid shilling nobody is actually as retarded as you're acting.

Easily Catalyst thus far. Just like the first one, it's a game I boot up just to be inside the world of. It's so fucking comfy to play.

But I have a feeling Last Guardian will end up being my GOTY.
