Psychonauts And Bastion

Alright, sorry I haven't updated in a bit. Was busy with convocation and dry grad (which were both awesome).

 

Also, 3 more games were included in the humble bundle which was automatically added to my steam account essentially. Super meatboy, braid, and Lone survivor.

 

Anyway, let's talk about the two games I beat.

 

Psychonauts: A good game, but nothing spectacular. There were a lot of funny jokes, but still nothing amazing. My two favorite levels were lungfish city and the Napoleon game board. Overall a good experience, but everyone had just hyped it up to be way better than it was.

 

Bastion: My goodness. I knew the narrator of this game was awesome, but I had no idea the rest of the game would be just as good. Even the gameplay. I used a machete and shotgun for most of the game until I replaced the shotgun with the calamity cannon. *SPOILERS* I also choose to save Zulf in the end and chose to evacuate. Walking through the end while carrying Zulf on my back while people were shooting at me with that music playing... Wow. It was such a breathtaking ending. *SPOILERS OVER* I am so glad that the humble bundle also gives you the soundtracks. Bastion's soundtrack alone is worth the $7 that my brother paid for it.

 

Also, borrowed Fallout 3 from a friend. I just can't get into it. I find the gun gameplay very boring, but don't think a melee character is viable since everyone has guns or is super powerful with melee. I think Skyrim has spoiled me. On the upside, I had been bored of Skyrim for a very long time, especially since my character was reset and I was just doing things over again, but thanks to Fallout 3 being kind of boring, My love for Skyrim has returned. Just in time for the DLC too.

A good game, but nothing spectacular.

 

I think it's better than just "good," but I don't know if I'd so far to call it spectacular.

New Vegas is a better game than Fallout 3, gameplay wise, IMO.

 

And I prefer the machete and mortar, myself.

I agree but think 3 is the better game overall. The Mojave is just so bland compared to DC. Also the DLCs for 3 are great.

I haven't played any NV DLC, but I think I might pick it up when it's on sale. I'd like a reason to give it another go.

The DLCs are great for NV. Dead Money is amazingly atmospheric and has one of the top three energy weapons in the game, Honest Hearts is beautiful, even as the weakest of the four story DLCs, Old World Blues is a great laugh and has some amazing gear, not to mention an excellent home base, and Lonesome Road is an excellent conclusion to the story the other three DLCs bring forth.

 

Personally, I prefer the Mojave to the Capitol. Much more color, more life.

 

Also, less Reavers.

Got very little to do with the actual post, but I misread the title as "Pocahontas and Bastion" and the illusion of Disney Princesses drew me in. Then I thought I'd leave a comment.
