@DabaTheDoom most of the public matches I played had nobody talking. You can click in the right stick to mark areas although you might as well just plug in a headset and say what it is as well.
There is Hunter/Monster DLC. 1 monster and four hunters are being added (one of each class). All maps will be free, however.
@A_BabyRed_Yoshi I found it really hard to sneak around for that long without getting noticed.
I feel like people would only purchase a skin for like the one character they main anyhow. I doubt 2K expects people to buy a skin for every character.
Do people complain this much about skins for Street Fighter?
@Rezalack "have at least an inkling of how to use their characters." and there is really no reason not to since the game features a fantastic tutorial and dozens of videos teaching you how to play. Turtle Rock did a great job making a deep, layered game very accessible.
@SuperKMx I usually dig them but when I was in LA last year it was basically an entire day spent at the hotel since the whole day had them spread across. Just a waste when the beautiful beach is so nearby
@JaxonH it is completely combo based. That is the one thing that kind of separates it from other fighters. I find it really interesting even if I can't put it all together during a match
I'm really good in the training dojo though but in live competition I just always screw up
MvC3 and Pesona 4 were the only fighting games I wouldn't automatically lose when I went online
@Souldin I am hoping they'll have a trial version with incremental payments for those that want to try and then just a full version on disk from the get-go.
If its any good I'll check it out once all the episodes are released. Not the biggest fan of episodic releases. I'd rather play the whole thing once its released.
I mean there are exceptions (like D4) but its not like D4 is a lock to have more episodes like The Wolf Among Us or this is.
Maybe I'm just close-minded but if I ever saw somebody using these I would give them a dirty look. I just find the name, the concept of the peripheral and especially the skull to be utterly annoying. That being said I'm not a hardcore FPS player so I'm sure there is an audience for this but I would assume those people would be playing on PC, wouldn't they?
@Anthinator I kinda wish Game of the Year stuff was done in like March of 2015 since then we would have more time to check out all the November releases but oh well
@mitcHELLspawn I wouldn't say that is necessarily true. Personally, I hardly have enough time to play games for personal enjoyment. I mostly play games for review anymore.
Last two RPGs I really got into were Persona 4 Golden which I sunk a hundred hours into and Devil Survivor Overclocked which I beat either 4 or 5 times. I like RPGs but they are a time-sink. If I stopped writing I would be playing RPGs non-stop
@sorethumbed sadly I put about 2 hours into that game before I realized there was no way I had the time to fit in a Bioware RPG before the end of the year. I wish I had enough free time to play everything I wanted to but I just don't.

Re: Review: Evolve (Xbox One)
@EternalDragonX is there actually that much stuff that is available on launch? New monster and characters aren't available yet. Just planned.
Re: Review: Evolve (Xbox One)
@Rezalack yeah the Trapper is so important. Super annoying when the arena isn't thrown at the right time
Thanks for reading - btw!

Re: New Killer Instinct Trailer Shows Off Omen, Teases Golem
@JaxonH I know Iron Galaxy would like to continue working on it but it probably depends on sales.
Re: New Killer Instinct Trailer Shows Off Omen, Teases Golem
@JaxonH I hope a release of everything developed never happens since that would mean they stopped adding stuff
Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue Forty Three
@HEADESTROYER4 I got it for free practically when the MS Store glitched out around Black Friday. I'll give any game/series a shot

Yuck.
Re: Phantom Dust Will Feature A 30 Hour Long Campaign
@EternalDragonX Killer Instinct was looked down upon? I have only heard praise towards the game in the fighting game community.

Re: First Stage: Funk of Titans
@DRL yeah it doesn't look bad at all but I still have Runner2 to beat if I wanna scratch my running itch.

Oh its an auto-runner? Kind of kills my interest.
