dizzyshadow Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 2 hours ago, BillyHorrible said: Nice twist! I'll recommend Flame Over as one of the Vita games. Which AC Chronicles game do you have or is it the trilogy version? I liked India the best. I'd been put off Flame over a bit by hearing how hard it is, but having done a bit more reading i think i'll give it a go, I have the trilogy version of chronicles (so arguably including crash bandicoot as well i'll be doing 18 games in total) 1 hour ago, Crimson Idol said: Nice selection. One advice I would give is to put Yooka-Laylee onto one of the later spots of your playlist as it's likely that sometime in July the devs will finally release the patch which will fix some bugs and glitches and also adds some essential things like a skip text-button. Any idea for the slot you want to put Rime on? Oh and I'm curious to hear about Micro Machines, especially if it features some kind of career or if it's more or less "only" multiplayer. I had that game preordered but after seeing the trophy list I wondered if the game would have some sort of career (or interesting singleplayer content) and decided to cancel the preorder. The only game you need from that selection. I only would recommend Root Letter if it's not your first VN as it's quite a mixed bag. Some love it, others dislike it (me included) and I honestly think it's a rather boring one. I haven't really thought much about order yet, i was going to put Horizon last, so I can play it straight through after the event ends, and based on what you said about Yooka-Laylee I think i'll put that 9th, so other than that i'm flexible about where Rime goes. I'm worried about Micro machines as well, really hope it does have career mode, also worrying that there is very little information about the game available despite the fact that it releases tomorrow, I thought about cancelling but i decided to go ahead, i played the original so much in my childhood felt like i had to give this a go. 2 hours ago, DamagingRob said: @dizzyshadow Root Letter and Bastion are glorious. I'll definitely give root letter a go. 1 hour ago, Edunstar84 said: @dizzyshadow - I recommend Bastion as well! Wow that's a lot of Love for bastion from everyone, the only thing that's stopping me from definitely adding it to the list is that I've already played it a few years ago on Steam (and i did enjoy it). I'd like to play it again and go for all the trophies (only played story mode last time) but i feel like the purpose of this event is to try new games so i'll see. 1 hour ago, Mesopithecus said: If you care about completion, I advise against playing Lumo on the Vita as apparently the Vita port is horrible and buggy. Thanks for the warning think i will give it a miss then and try it on PS4 at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do need to get lucky on the placement of people on each level but an easy ultra rare plat (0.79% at the moment) in my opinion. Spoiler Good tip is to keep playing the first 2 stages, reaching the shop where you can upgrade your equipment. If you don't get what you want (mega hose for example) rinse and repeat until you do.

Hemiak Posted June 29, 2017 Author Share Posted June 29, 2017 5 hours ago, dizzyshadow said: Given the new flexibility i'll go with a bit of a twist, i'll stick with the original 10 games (3 days each) all for home consoles, but because of my new job i now have a reasonably lengthy commute 3 days a week, So i'll add 4 vita games as well (1 per week, so they should all get 3 days play as well) I was actually just coming on to do something similar. My game time is broken into two parts. When other people are awake/around, and when I have true freedom to play whatever. With this in mind I'm going to do 9 games to play when Mim or the kids are around, 3 days each,with 4 leftover days. I'm also adding 4 games to play solo, as I generally don't have as much of this time. 9 main games Deadly Tower of Monsters Color Guardians Valiant Hearts Tearaway Unfolded Until Dawn Lumo Transistor Abzu Qurare 4 Hem time games from Titan Souls I Am Bread Jotun Invisible, Inc.

Popular Post Jaguargenie Posted June 29, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 29, 2017 (edited) Alright I'm not going to get any more time to game between now and July 1 so I'm going to do my stats/list post now since nothing is going to change. Completion Percentage: 75.28% Unearned Trophies: 892 (trophy advisor #) Games Played: 199 Now I think I'm going to try and spice this up a little bit. I'm doing a 6 game list due to two July events: 4th of July in the US is full of bbq-ING and drinking. There will be little to no gaming the 3rd and 4th. I will be in cancun the second day week of July as well so I can't tot my ps4 out to the beach with me. That being said, here is my idea. I'm putting a time LIMIT on each game rather than a day. As soon as I hit 3 hours of game play for a game (the recommended time handed down by our benevolent ruler), I'm moving on. This might make my list longer and kill my completion more, depending on how much game time I get. So the first 6 will be my goal to hit by month end, and then my 'On Deck' will serve as titles after my initial goal is met. Resogun Mad Max Life is Strange Tear away Volume Horizon zero dawn On Deck: Far cry 4 Swindle Broken age Abzu Look forward to everyones reviews!!! Happy July all!!!

Especially Fatty has to suffer as he is more weak-minded than the others. Sure, characters like Okabe from Steins;Gate also act like a dick but for me Okabe felt more of a well-designed character as he also had some weak spots and showed good emotions.

Mendant909 Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 8 hours ago, Crimson Idol said: The part about Sakura gave me a good laugh. It really needs some dedication to focus on the logical sense of such blunt scenes like a girl covered completely in chocolate. Overall I'm really surprised that the devs managed to release at least 14 of these VNs in the past 18 months or so and that people are still willing to pay a price of 10 or 20 USD (if you want the H-patch) for the same copy-paste tiddies which also appeared in the previous 10+ entries. Not to forget that people are paying 13k USD via Patreon per month just to get such nonsense. I guess you mean ports that aren't already announced? From the games I currently have in my Steam-lib and that I still have to read Clannad, Ame no Marginal, and Lucy: The Eternity She Wished For would come to my mind. The later two are rather short but overall I'm not really into reading VNs on a PC-monitor and I prefer to read VNs like a normal book so handheld-versions would be welcome. Otherwise I'm already satisfied with some of the announced VNs where a port is already confirmed and in the works like with the rather niché narcissu-series, and fault-series or the quite popular VNs like Muv-Luv or Grisaia. I also should add that I have no real criteria a VN has to fulfill to arouse my interest. It can either be a popular franchise which I just want to give a try (Steins;Gate, Muv-Luv, Grisaia), the setting or lore like Lucy and/or Planetarian with their focus on relationships between androids and humans or it can just be game which piques my interest because I'm surprised by the artstyle and dedication the devs put in. Just checked their Steam page and yup, over a dozen games with the most generic, placeholder titles imaginable. They made a freaking clicker game on a Patreon of $14k! Based on the reviews of their last game it seems their audience is getting fatigued from the constant releases, so who knows whether they'll eventually get a writer or close shop. I'm surprised that Clannad hasn't received some news regarding a port since it has a following and it's like the grandfather of modern visual novels, alongside Fate/stay night and the Ace Attorney series. Regarding Ame no Marginal, I'm guessing that's where Hyperdevotion Noire got the inspirations for its last recruitable character. Based on the synnopsis of Lucy it sounds like Chobits, which is right up my alley. Gosh damn Narcissu's premise sounds depressing but the story seems like it's uplifting despite such circumstances. Hopefully more visual novels do show up on the Vita that way Amnesia could be buried deep below the actually good visual novels. And wow, it sounds like Toma got his own game in Root Letter.

Popular Post Melanogaster1987 Posted June 29, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 29, 2017 I said back at the end of KYC 3 that I was going to have to sit this one out due to being busy - but given that it's only the first 6 days of July that are going to be a problem, and that we can choose our own schedule for this... put me in, please!

Popular Post ItsMeMartyy Posted June 29, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 29, 2017 (edited) I was initially going to do 15 in 31, then I kinda talked myself out of it. However, the fact that I am free this entire month I figured the only way to really participate in this event 100% was to do a 20 in 31, some games are shorter but this is the majority of unplayed games I have on my ps4 library. I just really feel that I am cheating myself if I have all this free time and don't actually use this as a 'kill your completion' challenge. If I only had 5-6 games and a free month I could probably 100% everything. The game I've chosen are: Uncharted 1 Remastered Uncharted 2 Remastered Uncharted 3 Remastered Journey Abzu God Of War 3 Remastered Life Is Strange Uncharted 4 Wolfenstein The Old Blood inFamous First Light The Walking Dead Season 2 Hitman Go Tomb Raider Definitive Edition Metro Redux : 2033 Metro Redux: Last Light Rachet and Clank Until Dawn Assassins Creed Black Flag Resident Evil 7 Yakuza 0 I haven't thought of any dates yet and I would imagine that I am going to do some games maybe 1-2 in one day like Abzu and Journey but save quite some more time for the longer games so as soon as I finish a game ill be diving into the next one rather than having each day as a set game to play ill play the game until I have played at least 10 hours up to a maximum of 3 days. The order will probably be as listed here as that's how I listed them on my Playstation folder.
