Clunky gameplay thread?
[DEL]
GOATAY right there.
How can Americans even compete.
Seems a bit outdated for 2017.
damn..
we all knew it was going to be a piece of shit.
I sincerely love stuff like this. I remember Risen 1's jump animation giving me a nice giggle. It was basically levitation for a brief moment.
It`s pretty good though.
wow....so this is the power of Piranha Bytes
seed more fags
just like youre mom
How's the difficulty? Is it Skyrim teir, where it only ramps up the enemy health?
guess you have to wait a year for fan patches or fixes from Piranha bytes.
So, how many members of the original gothic 2 team are still at phiranna bytes?
It's pretty much a whole new company, isn't it.
How is this any worse than Bethesda games?
MORE WEBMS
>piranha bytes
how are they still making games
>tfw getting prime eurojank in 2017
I love it.
PB games never use level scaling, it's possible to just walk into a place and get decimated by higher level enemies. That's true for all their games that I've played.
is this an Unity engine game?
I mean, looking at the hands and stance, it seems like there has to be jetpack involved in the animation...
Why is the animation used at that moment though, i have no idea
>A Hat in Time
>South Park
>now ELEX
I'm starting to like this year
Does the story branch when you join a faction or is it more like Gothic 1 where you end up dealing with all the factions anyway?
Reminder ELEX 2 was green lit before ELEX even released.

I know that, but apparently in ELEX you can set the difficulty, so i'm asking.
Why are you faggots getting baited into responding to this sad cocksucker trying to shill his terrible indie game

>I know that, but apparently in ELEX you can set the difficulty, so i'm asking.
Put it on highest.
Can't be harder than Night of the Raven.
Definitely much better than last year, considering we have games for almost any console and tons of weebshit.
Well i'll probably do that but if it's skyrim teir difficulty that makes the enemies literal health sponges then where's the fun in that
>a bit
...
I don't even remember any games released in 2016 that I played.
>tfw I actually like the combat
i-is there something wrong with me?
Floats just they they did in gothic 2 10/10
Wow what a shity and boring game
rpgs are for grandfathers
i am going back to overwatch
I've never played one of this developers games, I'm tempted to get this, what's the combat like in their games?
...
I will never understand why people like you post bait in threads like this.
Don't you have some actual indie devs to bully?
Jesus Christ, delete this post.
It's not a big deal desu. They just need to change the animation to a roll.
If you want to find a game you will play for combat... stay the fuck away from ¨Piranha Bytes
>that noticeable lag time between having hit sprint and actually sprinting
>that sliding
I can feel the jank through my eyeballs
Are we pretending Gothic 2 had bad combat?
>If you want a game with good combat -> stay away from PB
>If you want a game with good graphics -> stay away from PB
>If you want a game without bugs -> stay away from PB
>If you want a game with individuals chars and faces -> stay away from PB
>If you want a game with a fast, exciting and good story -> stay away from PB
Ehm sry. I think everybody should just stay away from PB
Haven't you seen a youtube video of this hunk of shit game? lmao
How have they made so many games if they're all bad?
Daily reminder that patched Gothic is amazing. Especially if you use bow.
I just want my gothic universe with evil orcs n magic n shiet ;-;
Actually i really don't know
ELEX 2 is already confirmed, they must be doing something right.
huge german and polish following. hell they can just sell the game in germany and they will make a profit. also german law gives them massive tax breaks(like uwe boll)
>evil orcs
>Gothic
Only wild orcs are "evil". And even they have guys like Ur-Shak.
Eh, which game is without bugs?
Reused character assets are just going to be a thing, unless the game is using random potatoface generator.
And Gothic was never about good, fast, exciting story... It was always about the atmosphere, immersion, exploring the world..
i love Gothic, but come on now, that video is just random fuckin button mashing
How the fuck are you going to deal with tons of enemies at once late game with just a bow?
Unless you are cheesing shit by jumping on top of a rock or whatever
>Gothic 3
First Gothic had good story.
"No!"
So from what I'm reading, wait a year for them or a modder to sort this shit out and make it playable?
No, enemies have set hit points and damages and you're railroaded into areas based on what you can beat. You can swing above your level but it's impractical even if doable as it takes ages to kill anything.
How'd I do, I never even heard about the game until yesterday and know nothing about it
.... no
The world was neat, the idea of the prisoner colony surrounded by barrier
But story is literally just muh ancient ebil
>do you want to go the safe path or the dangerous
>pick dangerous
>die
He was not wrong!
Is this a decent game for the writing / world building alone? I really don't mind clunky combat if it at least succeeds in making me feel like I'm going on a grand adventure.
I enjoy just exploring vast game worlds.
Can you make a custom character?
Where's "you died"?
Moving the game on SSD fixed pretty much all problems with long-ass loadings and stutters
no
>cheesing shit by jumping on top of a rock
This. But you still need to dispose of enemies with ranged weapons and mages pretty fast.
To be fair, Nordmar caves with the bow are almost impossible. Also, you can't hurt skeletons.
Are the animations dogshit on purpose?
I don't know what you expected.
They don't have money to use mocap.
I think this game might be decent but I find the overall faction concept cringeworthy. It's ludicrous to have such shifts in ideology and tech, that's how I know it will end up with incoherent world rather than a tight polished experience. I really don't need one Mass Effect faction fighting one Viking faction just because it's cool to juxtapose lasers vs swords or tech vs magick. If they wanted to go that route they should have made a successor to Arcanum.
I also need an important question answered: how hard are they going with padding? I assume harvesting and crafting will amount to 3/4ths of playtime?
they've gotten a pass for their animations for 16 years, so apparently it's part of the charm
It's a Piranha Bytes game, my friend.
they're good ya finna pinhead
Exploration is the best aspect of a pb game.
The game released like 5 hours ago, wait a bit lol
But PB is known for making worlds that are fun to explore, hopefully they can recreate it once again
Should I get this or South Park??
>carter is actually german
damn, who would have guessed?
Pretty much this, it's a 'so bad they're good' kind of affair.
Complaining about the combat system in ELEX is okay, because its shit to be quite honest. But complaining about the graphics in an open world game without any loading screen while entering a building or a cave, with over 300.000 spoken words and very well written and deep quests with dozens of choices (Bethesda has a mute main char and loading screens everywhere) with a beautiful world design and PERFECT exploration and with over 60-70h of fun, complaining about a game with those amazing aspects, made by 30 developers, is just disgusting.
Piranha Bytes only knows how to write one protagonist. A young, stock, gruff male who is painfully smug.
don't even sit there and act like anything you did in that .webm showed anything other than the complete opposite of what you are trying to prove.
Just pirate both.
cringe
this
What's about fps?
Which faction you going for?
I think I'll go righteuos cleric and purge every elex user there is, without using mindbreak
You tell me.
Pirate South Park but don't pirate ELEX, game is eurojank kino and PB is a studio that the gaming industry needs to stay around.
im gonna call you Hans from now on. see you on /asp/ my autistic friend.
Relax, Björn, we know.
ya fumin lil guy?
Were the Risen games like this too? Been a while since I've played them.
BASED
FUCKING THIS!
and that
Fortunately ELEX 2 is confirmed.
>Sequel is confirmed before first game even comes out
Who the fuck is bankrolling these guys?
>ELEX 2 is confirmed
I mean, it will be a few years. It can get cancelled or something.
Never played any, was hoping this was good cause I read people gushing about the stories Piranha Bytes makes in their games.
