Pick up game

>pick up game

>struggle with game

>have fun playing literally anyone else

Anyone else done this before? I do it all the damn time it seems like

I tried starting monster hunter with the Charge Blade and had a very similar experience

I always read a basic guide online about shit like that before picking a character or choosing a weapon, mainly to avoid shit like that.

>really like playing blind
>devs make game specifically punishing for blind runs

Fuck you valdis story

TFW gravitate to any turret/engineer classes immediately

I will literally pick up a shit game if it has a turret using class just to try it out.

It's a shame most really fuck up the balance of them, since the turret is 99% of the time garbage

I bet you played technician in T:A

Yeah, Carol's shit compared to Lilac.

if you started with 4, you're a scrub

Me playing Street Fighter 4, except I eventually learned the "shit" character and am now somewhat competent.

Yes, specially furry characters like that

Carol took getting used to.
Best girl though.

I thought Carol was the easiest to play with. Once you get her bike she's pretty much unstoppable.


Milla gave me the most trouble getting used to.

But it's okay I love them all.

>want to play optimally
>hate the optimal character

Goddamnit ebf4.

Almost done with Milla's campaign, she's pretty strong but the low health is a bitch

The bike is a total coinflip on whether or not it's actually useful or not because you lose the ability to wild kick on the ground (and wild kick is basically 99% of Carol's arsenal, wild claw is too delayed and too risky to be consistently useful.)

Honestly for the sequel I hope she can just modechange to a less powerful bike at will and the gas canisters give her some kind of super bike.

what's the optimal character for that game? I thought they were all equal

Thy took out her wildkick in the sequel

Does it really count when the game is designed for replays? You can beat that game in a few hours.

This literally happened with Neverwinter.

Scourge Warlocks are shit. SHIT.

The optimal three are Matt, Natalie and Anna.
Matt and Natalie because they're min-maxed to phys attack and magic attack respectively.
The problem is that Anna and Lance are both mixed attackers, but Anna has the skill Reflex, which is very powerful, making Lance the decidedly worse choice. In addition to this are small things like Refresh instead of Medipack.

You can beat the game without Anna, so it's not that bad, but it makes it quite a bit harder.

BlazBlue. When CS came out I picked up Tsubaki as a secondary. She fell to shit in CP and it made playing games her more of chore than anything else. She seems a bit better in CF so I might picky her back up next month.

dungeon travelers 2. i was picking the wrong classes and dumping points into the wrong passives.

>I played as that green goblin
Is that why I thought Freedom planet was fucking garbage?
Surely the level design being shit didn't help, right?

Carol is best freedom planet. Lilac a shit.

Why is there so little freedom planet porn

fucking this in MH on my PS2
>start off with light Bowgun
>takes an eternity to kill anything
>switch to HBowGun
>still shitty
>fuck it mayne
>use greatsword and try SnS
>have a fucking blast and killtimes skyrocket


not only that but not having to buy 20 different types of ammo was also nice

I did it in this very game.

Correct.
I fucking hate lilac

Fuck off shill

>play dead island yes I know
>fuck yeah STR
>soon find out like most games ,STR is shit and DPS is superior
>end up slicing my through the rest of the game as the wrong class

And somehow managed to finish that abomination

Fucking what. So what the fuck does she have?

Carol is best girl but Lilac is best to play as. Fuck trying the speedrun achievements as Carol

I main Zangief in sfv, but I still do worse with everyone else since I only have experience playing zangief

Is there sequel footage yet?

They gave her a bigass ninja star.
I think she can teleport where she throws it

No but we've seen some sprites and screenshots

and some artwork

This is Carol's sister, Corazon aka Cory

>MFW I dodged all the shit that was supposed to fuck the towns up without even knowing they were there.

What do you mean?, are you talking about clubs vs swords?

freedom planet 2 when
i hope they keep the chunky sprites too

>be kid
>don't really understand AOE 2 but enjoy failing anyway
>like the franks for some reason I have no idea (maybe I played the joan campaign a lot?)
>think they're the best
>pick the game up again as an adult
>franks are one of the worst fucking civs ever.

It took the Sonic team 6 months to make Sonic and Knuckles COME THE FUCK ON I NEED MY FURRY PLATFORMER FIX

Nope, all redesigned.
But I like them all personally, eve though Lilac's tail pisses me off

>love Koreans as a kid because dragon ships and bombard towers
>play them as adult
>They're total shit
>i still love them

Having shit taste hurts sometimes.

I want to IMPREGNATE this cat!

Nigger one is her sister

Mage in Dragon's Dogma

>Pick up Twin Saga
>Gravitate to the Swordmaster since the class I want is locked until you get the quest for it in-game and swap to it
>Feel like Swordmaster is a great tank character, so I'll have a good shot at slots in Dungeons
>Turns out Swordmaster is the solo class and literally the worst tank for parties, his design is to solo content to grind out other classes
Conflicted, but generally, really annoyed.

>Guess I'll just go with a tech dwarf gunslinger for my first run.

Just learn Alex. He's easy to pick up and better than Gief at everything.

Literally groaned when I read this.

I played a tech half-orc, because tech-orcs are fucking dope.

>pick up game
>gravitate towards the class, race, or whatever I perceive as the the least common

The game was literally designed around Lilac and no one else.

I like that they re-proportioned the characters and made them more detailed overall.

Carol is a beast without the bike. You don't use Wild Kick as your main attack, instead you roll jump into enemies and combo into the claw, using the Wild Kick to avoid damage and continue to dish it out.

No clue but some faggot with an underwater fetish commissioned like half of it.

Yeah swords and blades with all the special workbench buffs ended up being insanely superior

Yeah. I picked Hei-cob in Gunbird 2 because I have a fat fetish. I kept failing really bad after stage 3. Then I found out he just has the shittiest stats in the game for some reason.

>pick up game
>gravitate towards a taste for foreign films and modern plays

This was me except with MMO classes. Gravitate to one, PvP / PvE feels like I'm doing twice the work for half the payout.

Several years later, pick up a different MMO. This time I apparently picked the OP class. Literally win 1v4s in PvP, able to carry PvP matches solo with ~80% win rate while guild members complain they rarely win, dominate server PvP tournaments, etc.
