So if I want a coop tactical shooter, my choice is between the super old Swat 3, the aging RS Vegas 2 and the new one, Ready or Not, developed by people who may or may not have brain rot. That's it ?
I was thinking how much fun Vegas 2 was and how Extraction should have been Vegas 3.

JP VTuber FPS Lion is playing TC: Extraction now if you fancy a look at it.
The developer of DUSK has a short horror game coming out in March. Looks moody as heck.
Looking at the buy page right now, and it appears the Steam version is last gen only. I could be wrong though.
Does it use the score to lock progression? As in, if I don't get a cumulative score from the first X levels I can't continue past a certain point without going back and grinding earlier missions to get S or 100% or whatever system it uses? If not, I've been afraid for nothing.Yup. Hitman lets you unleash all the fury you want. Its just unforgiving if theres a lot of enemies (unless you play on easy, then its a bit more lenient, but still, Agent 47 takes more or less realistic damage...unti he magically heals away the bullet wounds after a while).
Its not moralising you unless you care about the leaderboard score at the end (there a points system to unlock new weapons, suits, gadgets and entrance points, and that system is tied to efficiency, time, etc – and it will deduct points from murdering innocents, but that shouldnt stop you from just having fun with the game). They didnt put a gazillion way to kill in that game if they were punishing you for using em. I know I've done horrible things to those poor NPCs in those huge levels

Also, I've FINALLY finished Tales of Arise. Good game! Bit long. But good.
Getting Quake-engine Soma vibes from the screenshots
Hitman 2 (Steam) is 149GB on my PC
The Tenchu IP is owned by FromSoftware. Their last attempt at Tenchu (Z) wasn't very good, but I'd still love for them to take another try at it. Or have Acquire make another entry. Funny thing is, after From fumbled Tenchu Z, they had Accquire develop the next entry, which was Shadow Assassins.
I just want one more Tenchu game before I die.
No, the points system - "Location mastery" its called – is used to unlock new items: lockpicks, outfits, new starting locations within a level...that kind of thing.
But the story levels...you can play the levels in any order, start at the very end if you wish, there is no gatekeeping whatsoever, you dont even need to play the tutorial or anything, just play it the way you wanna.
The score is just a rating how well you did, but it rewards replaying the levels and getting to know them, playing them differently etc, with these extra unlocks.
They also make it more convenient: for example, the lockpick is easy to get, but its also really useful. (mind you, you'll still be able to play without these extra items. you'll find crowbars and keys to get doors open if you dont have a lockpick)
Oh and the score you get after a level is also used for leaderboards. I was top 5 in the Stadia rankings for one Hitman 3 level once. Not a lot of people played it on Stadia, I reckon
For more on Mastery & unlocks, check this Mastery
Yeah it was pretty bonkers how large that game is/was
Still not sure if I want it. Played some Hitman 2 but not as much as I thought I would. On paper its a lot of things I like, I just didn't get into it for some reason.

Nobody Saves the World is really, really good! Imagine an RPG with 16 unique classes, but instead of having to do a new run with each class, you can unlock other classes by doing quests, and change to a character of another class whenever you want. When your characters get enough experience, you can even use attacks, perks and specials from other classes for that character. This is really cool and so much fun! I can't recommend this game enough!
Oh, soon thenIn 4 hours:

I am hoping for a complete package for a nice price
edit:: Just read the patch notes and it looks like that there will be two different packages for Hitman 3
Standard and Deluxe Edition

IOI kinda went crazy on the pricing of these.
This is price history for these games in past year
Not giving much hope for decent steam pricing
The joys of IOI release: make sense of what piece of DLC you have and the convoluted upgrade path.
So I have H1 (with everything except the Blood Money pack), H2 with every DLC except for the Silver to Gold Upgrade and GOTY Legacy Upgrade. Do I have access to every levels of H1-2 ?
I suppose I'm missing some costumes, but if that's the extant of it I'm good, only interested in the levels.

IOI is really not a very constumer-friendly dev. High prices, confusing upgrade paths...
Li Kao I think so? But Im also confused

LEGO Star Wars trilogy - 9 Films!
Now that is a TON of content and i think they're my favorite LEGO series. I haven't played The Hobbit or LOTR LEGO for years but i remember losing track of things as they attempted to do a non-linear presentation. I might be wrong about that but i do remember getting confused but the Star Wars LEGO games are great.
Well, Were great, haven't played for years which is why i have the itch. I also want to get Lego City as that's supposed to be great too.

The flowchart for which pack or edition to get is pretty silly. Feel like they should just streamline it and grant owners of the old games whatever content they're still missing.
Tbh, I don't know why IOI gets away with the shit they pull
Worse than that, people defend them
They pull similar shit to EA, Ubi, 2k etc

If Hitman 3 is unreasonably priced on Steam im going to pass on it, wait for a big sale and probably buy Dad of Boy instead.
Same for passing, IOI have become pretty greedy recently
I forgot about the always online bollocks as well, that still annoys me.
I would add that this is on top of their decision to make all of these games always online.
Poor widdle devs, only big meanie publishers have shitty business practices.
Biggest eye oppener was Destiny 2 that actually was more fair to customers while Bungie was under Activision than it is now when Bungie is independent.
Well, IOI did develop this thing independently, so I can get being a bit more careful about pricing... But that doesn't really excuse confusing editions, content packs and progress transfer.
I got spoilt with Control. 50% launch discount on Steam for the Ultimate Edition.
I now expect a decent discount on release on Steam or a complete edition, preferably both.

Yeah, I bought 1 + 2 with dlc's and remember only playing two maps in the end (not included tutorials). Its strange though because I can see they are incredible games, I think I just get overwhelmed with all the things you can do, and you want to try experience everything but the checklist shows how much you missed. Then I load up the next map and get this guilty feeling like I didn't experience the previous map properly.
Anyway will most likely get the third game to complete the collection, really hoping it's not expensive, I've got 4 weddings within 4 months to go to, so things are expensive for a while.
Only 83 achievements to unlock? So it doesn't include achievements from previous games?
Don't forget the sins dlcs
