The guns feel really good. Driving... it could be better, but taking a car over a cliff as a "shortcut" is pretty amusing.

I'll probably do the Elusive targets, even ones not in an area I have played before, because why not?
I've only ever played Hitman Blood Money and I wasn't very good at it, and thought it was okay, but this one is great.

PROS:
- guns feel great
- animation, sneaking around, all great
- driving off of mountains is a blast
- huge landscape full of stuff to do
CONS:
- ALL of the dialog. Seriously, all of it is terrible. It's like what how a 7th grader must think soldiers talk.
- currently very buggy. It freezes, has huge frame rate drops, and will randomly kick people from sessions
- Even on normal difficulty, with all human players, it's insanely hard. Enemies will spawn behind you. F this game
After some patches, and a price reduction, this game will be worth your time. But it isn't now.

About the enemy. Are they hard just because they spawn and are many/tough, or is the AI any good? Do they use team tactics, flanking, communication and such? Drive vehicles?

I hate games where the onky tweak to enemies is, more, more often, or more unexpectedly. On shooters it's an especially glaring sin.....When the endgame is just wave mode....especially ifthe game had any semblance of tactics or stealth prior to endgame.
I get it that a i's are way more difficult to code than "add twice as many of the same thing."
The other pitfall of those types of games is just multiplying hp's and turning evrything into bullet sponges.

It's a combination of Just Cause and Far Cry. The cooperative elements are actually really cool. The enemies are difficult because of the sheer volume of them. And if you do manage to clear them out, you usually have a small window in which to achieve your objective before a new batch trickles on in. They will drive vehicles, man sentry guns, call in attack helicopters, fire mortars, and flank. Although their usual technique of flanking is more like swarming.
I forgot another really cool thing I saw in the game, and I hope it figures into the gameplay at some point. I was driving to an objective, up the side of a mountain, and had to stop while a train went by. The track wound around the side of the mountain. It was really cool and unexpected. If they don't have a mission involving that train, they are really missing the... boat.

I'm pretty advanced in Nioh's second area. That early troubling boss in the cave was a hell of a difficulty spike, I have not encountered anything remotely as hard as that one so far. There was a very well-done human swordsman boss. The level design is pretty engaging, too.

Instead, I bought the Witcher 3 Complete for 20 bucks and started it. The amount of loot and shit you get is just overwhelming but I guess a lot of it isn't important. But it's very intimidating to start the game because of this.
I do love Geralt's dialogue. Genuinely great. PS4 version runs like garbage-ish but the dialogue is looking like it will hold me in. Combat is challenging, too, which is fun. I'm doing 2nd highest difficulty level and I LOVE the idea that monsters are hard enough that you need to actually research and prepare. And it's totally in-universe consistent with Geralt actually being a professional monster hunter people pay to do this service.

Anyone have a favorite? TORCHLIGHT was cool about inventory, right? I only played it briefly.

It sounds like a very fun game on which to compare notes and experiences. We might need a dedicated thread...
