So I literally only caught this by chance but Konami is doing some Nintendo Direct type thing right now and they revealed the multiplayer component of MGS Delta. It's specifically not MGO, it's some new thing called "FOX Hunt" which specifically is called a "hide and go seek" thing. They said that 'the landscape of multiplayer games has changed a lot since the last MGO and they want to make something unique that isn't just a shootout.'

(It's right at the start.)

In better news though, they're bringing back Secret Theater with new scenes.

please be prophunt please be prop hunt please be MGS prophunt.

It would be so funny if this FOX Hunt thing had lootboxes.

Pachinko lootboxes. The lootboxes contain steel balls used for an in-game pachinko machine and the RNG factor of the lootboxes is how many steel balls they contain. Some lootboxes may contain 2, others may contain up to 9. You then use the steel balls as currency to play in-game Pachinko machines to gamble for even more steel balls. You can then turn in the steel balls you've collected, whether from winning them from Pachinko or buying them outright through lootboxes, to buy microtransactions in the in-game shop.

I'm grinding for levels to beat the monster in the swamp, he's pretty difficult for me.

My recollection of that guy was: Fire Good.

there goes any interest I had on the remake
also

tenchu ass looking HUD in silent hill this whole thing felt familiar to me and it finally clicked, this game feels like chilla's art game with budget. I keep hearing this ryukishi or takeshi is some sort of auteur but if the monster designs reflect the writing, it's gonna be ass.

Silent Hill died with 4, which was only half a Silent Hill game.

Reminder that Neverwinter Nights 2: Enhanced Edition is releasing next month, most likely as a response to Baldur's Gate 3 lighting a fire under WotC, which means you should get the GOG copy of the game ASAP before it's removed from purchase:



Why should you consider grabbing the OG game instead of the EE? Because the precedent was set with the first NN being pulled from store shelves in favor of the EE. Why else should you consider *not* purchasing the EE? Here are the system requirements, it's going to require 40 GB storage space, similar to Aspyr's Battlefront Classic remaster:



Here is an easy link to the GOG copy of Neverwinter Nights 2: Complete, and for full price at $20, you get infinitely more value than most modern games - and absolutely no worries about compatibility with old mods, or persistent servers! Assume it's not going to go on sale again because the EE is releasing, so if you're going to get it, try to do so within the next month! (If you somehow do not already have it by value of owning a GOG account)

Really disappointed Beamdog isn't handling this, they actually give a shit about what they do. Aspyr can't make a good product to save their lives.

Didn't Beamdog introduce queer shit into one of the Enhanced Editions?

Only reason to buy these "enhanced" versions are because you can't buy the originals, but can get the originals through the "enhanced" versions on GOG.

Never heard about this, link?

Never heard about this, link?

not sure about "queer shit" specifically but they added a bunch of quests and characters which got lots of people upset at basically nothing.

One of many stories at the time:

It was from an expansion they did from the game. Maybe the "enhanced" versions themselves are untainted, but given all the alterations done to remasters or even just collections (looking at you, Capcom) these days, I don't trust these faggots one bit.

I own all of them, but haven't played through Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 yet. AFAIK they're untainted.
