Once I get bored enough with PUBG I am totally checking Rainbow Six out.

I actually played that game on N64, it was wee bit different then.

Pit People

Went ahead and picked this up tonight and I can already tell I'm going to love this one. This is such a creative take on the strategy style RPG concept. Pit People is what I just said, an action packed RTS style game with some RPG elements thrown in. So far, I've seen that the overworld works much like Final Fantasy in that everything is small until you react to it and sometimes it's a battle, sometimes it's not. Really cool take on that sort of thing. This game came out quite a while ago and I remember Northernlion saying he loved it because it was a unique twist on the strategy style genre, and I definitely agree. It's got a lot of interesting comedy thrown in and the voice acting is fantastic. The art style is much like Don't Starve but it's pretty evident that it's meant to be a bit of a joking style of it. But again, it really works. The combat is what you'd expect from an RTS, but it's done much like Civ games where the battle is taking place right there and you have to each react to each others choice of moves. Yes, I'm aware that everyone knows what strategy is. But yeah. It's fun. I'd recommend it if you have a strategy game itch and you just don't quite want the intensity of Civ 6.

Pretty fun game. Working on my Zen Garden.

Duuuuuude

The Batlord

Been playing GTA 5 off the hook recently and then got the urge to replay Saints Row 4. Dude, five minutes in and I'm not too hot on the prologue anymore, then I get to the 50s matrix world and it's ridiculous and amazing again, then I'm in fake Steelport with no powers and the cars don't quite feel right driving them but who cares cause it's Saints Row 4, then I get powers and the old feelings come flooding back. Spent the next two days doing all the side missions to get money and experience and conquer territories and it's doing the same damn things ad nauseum but it's still so ****ing great even if this is like the tenth time I've done all of this.

And my character looks like She-Hulk and is way better than other people's versions I'm seeing on a Google image search. I swear it's almost like nerds don't know how to dress women.

I've tried GTA V a few times but each time, I feel like I'm playing a knocked down version of Saints Row. Especially Saints Row The Third. The 4th one is really ****ing good though especially when you start to get your powers and you feel like an unstoppable badass traveling across rooftop to rooftop.

I'll also feel like Saints Row is what GTA wishes it could be.

The Batlord

I don't think I'll come back to GTA 5 as much as SR4 but it's still amazing. The characters are great (well, the guy in witness protection and the crazy guy are great), the story line is as engaging as people try to get me to believe GTA 4 was supposed to be, the world is so breathtakingly rendered and loaded with sheer cool stuff that comparing the two games is kind of embarrassing, the missions aren't as bat**** but they're still done better, and in general it's just a way better game in a technical sense.

But Saints Row 4 is one of those games like Deadpool which was clearly made for me by people like me and it has my heart. After all these years just moving around the city still hasn't gotten old and I don't know that it ever will. And as well written and voice acted as some of the characters in GTA 5 are they aren't as ****ing lovable as Kinzie, Johnny Gat, Shaundi (both versions), Pierce, and the Boss. And ****ing Keith David playing Keith David as your Vice President.

Both games are 5/5.

Y'know? I can safely agree to that. i've watched a lot of people play through the story of GTA 5 and I admit that it's pretty well told and the characters are super engaging. The world does do a really good job of building upon itself to give you a sense of immersion, and I will admit that the characters in GTA 5 are all fun and memorable. It's always held a 9/10 to a 10/10 rating even though I don't play it myself. I've seen a lot of it to where I could basically retell the story.

Saints Row is just on a completely different level though and it's ability to give you a bunch of crazy **** to do is a humongous plus that I wish GTA would cling onto.

So yeah, I guess we're both in agreement that both games are really great, even though we seem to both prefer the same game.

The Batlord

The one problem I have with GTA 5 is that I think the wanted level system was built around multiplayer as it is unforgiving as **** and legitimately stops me from casually committing crimes when I just want to get from point A to point B. If I just steal a car often some citizen will call the cops and I'll get a wanted star even though there were no cops around, and then all of a sudden I get unlucky and there's a cop coming my way I can't avoid and can't shake and just from running I get a second star and then it snowballs. I know doing one stupid thing is something that can result in getting chased by the army in all of the GTA games but it's so much more prevalent in 5 that it gets irritating. And your health is much lower than in previous games so not only are you getting chased more often but getting killed more often and more quickly as well. I'm pretty sure this was meant to make sure the game would still be challenging in multiplayer and that hurts singleplayer a bit.
