No, Leon's campaign isn't short on ammo once you learn the "cover recovers stamina, stamina is used for melee attacks/dodges. Melee attack/dodge nearly everything." This is one of those "the campaign doesn't explain the mechancis" thing.
But Leon's campaign does have issues in regards to set-piece design. But that's probably the best playing one.
The problem with the campaign is:
-QTE's
-Gunshot enemies staggering you. This isn't like Lost Planet so on higher difficulties you'll be trying to get up and one of the gun enemies (of which there are many) will stagger you/reroll you.
-Set pieces aren't fun
-Chris' campaign is FUCKING TERRIBLE. One of the worst shooter campaigns I've played in years
-Jake isn't really that interesting and a waste of time when they could've focused on Sherry. Buthad to be tied in since they painted themselves into a wall by killing Mary Sue Antagonist last outing. :/Wesker's Son
-Ada's campaign isn't that great, double so if you're an Ada fan.
Yeah, it's about 20 hours or so long. I didn't really time it but it felt like forever because none of it was fun, which is really crazy because it was Capcom... but I guess Capcom doesn't have that spark anymore.
Seriously though, dude: I bought the game two times once on PS3 and once on Steam sale. I can't muster the effort to go through the campaign a second time/PC because it's that bad. :/
I'm going to have to disagree with Seks here and say I really liked RE6's campaign overall and thought it was an ambitious mess with a mixture of good and bad. The only part I genuinely hated was Chapter 2 of Jakes campaign - ugh.
Out of all of them I'd probably rank them as Ada - Chris - Jake - Leon. Leons is the worst for me because I felt it dragged on far too long towards the end. Ada and Chris's were the most consistently fun IMO, I enjoyed both of them a lot. I thought Chris campaign was a pretty fun shooter. The worst parts were definitely the vehicle sections and Chapter 2 of Jakes campaign, apart from that I didn't think it was that bad. The QTEs never really bothered me plus there's an option in the menu to make those easier/piece of piss anyway.
The thing that really elevates the PC version for me was having the combat system at 60fps. It plays so fucking well at that framerate and is a joy. That and having the option to basically change the camera so it's not really as zoomed really added to the enjoyment for me after they patched it. Definitely read up on the combat system as well, they teach you absolutely fuck all and the game makes you use it too. Certainly no masterpiece, and it is true that Mercenaries is the most fun thing about, but I do like RE6 quite a bit despite its issues.
ah Manhunt... I remember trying it out at a friend's videogame store and being completely BLOWN AWAY at the very start / tutorial when it says on the wall "Kill this dumb fuck"
I couldnt believe a videogame had that. Man I loved that game
Onimusha 2 still the best. I wish these games were on PC (Are any on PC?)
Agreed. RE6 has one of the best tps systems in the genre, it's a shame capcom forgot to put explanations for most of the moves and the game is filled with terrible design choices.
Your heart is pure.
3 is but its on par with DMC3, aka a bad port that needs a lot of work

because fuck you, that's why
also - I'm pretty sure you DEFINITELY killed waaaaay more than 5k enemies at this point
It wants you to beat NGZ mode! Then the game will reward you with the cheevos you desire.
Fuck Hayabusa! Died way too many times on his fight until I got gud.

Hi everyone!
I was asked to post in here by Milamber, so I thought I'd quickly poke my head in.
Milamber asked if, with Comiket 86 around the corner, whether or not we were going to spread more awareness about Playism and Steam to developers that largely only sell at these events.
The answer is: absolutely. We always have at least 2 staffers from Playism going to Comiket every year, and we try our best to introduce both Steam and Playism as viable platforms for their games, especially in the west.
As many of you might not be aware, Steam is not a force in japan right now, and many developers never release their games digitally at all. We already have quite a few titles on Steam, and we're going to be adding even more soon. We also have all these titles on Playism, for those who want the DRM-free option.
Playism is pretty popular with PC gamers in japan right now, and we have quite a few users on the western side that like the option of both Steam and Playism for their doujin games. We know everyone in this thread wants to play their games on Steam, and we hear you. We're going to be adding to our Steam catalogue throughout the year, and we have a bunch of great titles that really have no peer on the platform.
This all sounds like marketing speak, but I thought I'd just say: yes! We want doujin developers to get more exposure in the West. That is our job after all.

Awesome stuff yo, thanks for spreading the good word and doing the good work!
Very excited for the future.
On PS3 some found they had to uninstall the game, reinstall it and start a brand new game before the game would start counting how many kills they did.

Good to have you visit by. I have no problem with Playism and found it quite nice as a service, but aye, I have to admit it would be nice to have the games on Steam as well so thank you for that.
Best of luck.

Enjoying Eidolon, although I definitely need a break. Great atmosphere that is reinforced with some of the best music and environmental cues I've heard for a while in a game. Interested to piece the story together as right now it seems incredibly scattershot, where in one area you're investigating a religious retreat and suddenly you're in a city apparently destroyed by some kind of immorality granting alter. You find out that the religious retreat was started to get away from what they deemed a corruptive influence, so hopefully other things start coming together.
Game is definitely a bit boring in moments where you go too far between the orbs you find that reveal more about the world. You look for a bird in the sky to guide you from orb to orb, coming to new locations every now and again. Certainly a lot of visual variety, but it's a bit confusing you place yourself as the maps give very little detail and you have to use a compass to keep track of your direction. The "actual" gameplay also seems a bit pointless, you find a bow that lets you hunt animals and find various berries to keep yourself from starving but in the three hours I played it was such a complete non-factor that the game almost seems like it would be better without it. Still haven't seen a game that handles survival elements as well as Ice-Pick Lodge.
Orbs do seem a bit contrived though, they contain everything from letters, photos, emails, and even the maps with no variation in appearance. You read the emails on some kind of futuristic tablet you have on your person, so I'm interested to see how that system works as it mentions beacons(you hear a lot about these in the world building elements) and how some functions don't work given your distance away. Not sure if you are supposed to find them, or if they are all gone as some cities were said to fall because of malfunctions so I'm not sure if that's actually a system or not.

Also, Indie Royale bonus is Black Shadows. I remember it being discussed here before.

The other frustrating thing about Eidolon is it has pretty constant hitching that drags the framerate down to a standstill for a second or two. Imagine it's because the game is open world and using Unreal Engine 3 which seems to have a lot of issues with such things. Worse in some areas than others, definitely took me out of the game a few times.
Does anyone have an issue with steam where after uploading a screenshot the upload progress popup becomes "glued" to the desktop and won't close? Doesn't seem to affect performance but it's kind of ugly and annoying.

I was like what the heck is this? Turns out I have an account from many months, even with a game -.-
Comfy couch controller is great.
Nope, but similar windows from the Steam client do the same thing for me! Mainly the "uninstalling game" one.

Thanks for the update. Will be keeping a close eye on your blog and various others for Steam news and new doujins too.
I hope Raita comes back.
Whenever JakeD's name pops up in these threads, I imagine him as an off-brand JaseC. Sort of like Saber and Sader, for people who know what I'm talking about. >.>

Great news all around
Playism grabbing more doujin games
I successfully was able to move those HDD files.
And Maneill won his CSGO match.
Now I can go back to bed.

Email it to yourself and copy the URL that goes to the game. Or go lazy and have the person add you on steam and gift it to them. They get added to your friend list anyway.
So this precludes ModBot, I suppose?

But yes you can put the key as anything if need be. So long as you don't break the line.
Which is handy if you want to give a game away that isn't out yet or something .
Edit: Oh my bad you didn't even know how to set up mod bot. Glad that is sorted out. I really do need to go back to sleep.

It took me way to long, and made me feel stupid once I figured out how to get the steam key for Astebreed. I didn't know that the serial code was the steam key until I figured what the hell might as well try it. The help section on the site didn't offer any clarification on how to claim your key.
