The Scorchers DLC might be in the top DLCs of all time, especially due to the way they integrated the content in the base game.I was surprised to find out how much of a sequel RAGE 2 actually is though. I remember people complaining about the ending, and that's classic shitty id for you -- but RAGE 2 playing into it makes it okay in my books.
Also this shop keep looked like Bailey Jay, so now I'm cranking it to her vids.
>>732313198>covering up playtimeSeriously? Fags on /v/ share playtime and accounts all the time, why so paranoid?
you JUST made this same exact thread and first reply
rage is garbage
>>732314668Compared to
>>732313496resident /v/ schizo, this person has made 100+ threads like this for various games with all the same format
>>732313198>throw exactly 1 (one, singular) wingstick>EVERYTHING DIESWow. So good. Such underrated.
>>732315925Wing sticking it when you need to reload is pretty satisfying, but I hate the F1-F4 implementation.
>>732315814You're totally not a schizo though even though you live on this board 24/7 to a point where you notice.
>>732313198What's your endgame here, autist?
>>732313198Rage has some of the worst world-building I've ever seen, especially if you play the DLC>post-apocalypse with scarce resources>half your missions are just delivering messages and basic goods like bandages, or finding corpses>the entire story is about how only the evil government faction has any technology and even their best shit is barely functional jetpacks>meanwhile this one random bandit faction has a fucking Final Fantasy-esque airshipIt's a literal fucking boat complete with cannons that floats in the air because of magic or something. It's fucking absurd, and the DLC is placed such that it's one of the first things you'll encounter in the entire game.
>>732318087Agreed, but Carmack was right in a sense where nobody really cares about plot in a porn. RAGE being so stripped down that it didn't even have audio or text logs was refreshing, when that generation was nothing but System Shock 2 rip offs with Dead Space and Bioshlock.
>>732318297As a post-apocalyptic sandbox Borderlands 1 is objectively better when it comes to gameplay, plot, characters, the level design, the vehicles and especially your ability to have fun while completely ignoring the plotYou could argue that Rage doesn't care about plot if it just dropped you off in an open world full of quests after the mandatory unskippable tutorial, but it doesn't. It's an extremely linear game with fuck all side content, where the the entire progression is built around following the extremely linear plot. Saying the story is meant to be ignored is just an excuse for it being bad.Though this isn't an issue exclusive to Carmack himself and seems to be an on-going cultural problem at id software, with Doom 2016 having a plot built entirely around ignoring the plot while somehow including unskippable HL2-style "sit in a room while a character monologues at you" cutscenes.
>>732318913>As a post-apocalyptic sandbox Borderlands 1 is objectively better when it comes to gameplay, plot, characters, the level design, the vehicles and especially your ability to have fun while completely ignoring the plotNo. I'd rather replay RAGE than Borderlands 1 or 2. Borderlands unironically didn't get good until 3 and I still had to play it with the voice acting off. RAGE is so inoffensive that you can just play it half paying attention before the action starts.Also Quake is still champion for worst ending in a game that feels like it's building to some kind of answer for what the hell was going on in the game. RAGE 1's ending at least leads directly into RAGE 2, and Avalanche Studios unironically made lemonade out of the lemon that was RAGE 1's pathetic setting.
>>732319091Rage has a hell of a lot more downtime between the action setpieces than BL1 does, especially if you're focusing on the BL1 sidecontent. BL2 and 3 though have plenty of "Talk to Lillith" segments that fuck with the pacing.As fucking awful as the writing in BL3 is, and it is fucking awful, at least it tries to move along. Rage is just "do a bunch of fetch quests and then move on to the next town" until you get to the final assault and turn on the wifi to wake up your buddies.Never played Rage 2 despite it being free on EGS at one point and I ain't in a hurry to do so either.Did you read the Rage novel? It apparently contains all the lore for the player character that wasn't put in the game for some reason.
>>732319802>Never played Rage 2 despite it being free on EGS at one point and I ain't in a hurry to do so either.Well it's just flat out better as a game, even though RAGE 1 feels next gen compared to the 360/PS3 era slop that Borderlands 1 and 2 feel like. RAGE 2 managing to continue off the nothing story was surprising. Basically, at the end of RAGE 1, the Authority has made mutants you fight near the end of the game and they're basically their idea of an ultimate super soldier because they're mindless but do what they're told. RAGE 2, you're fighting those same mutants and finding more raised arks to upgrade your character.>Did you read the Rage novel? It apparently contains all the lore for the player character that wasn't put in the game for some reason.I didn't even know it had one, but games like Dead Space had gotten so big, both in budget and scope, they were bleeding more and more into multimedia like that. Any good? Is it a full adaptation or does it just cut off?
>>732313198>>732319091>RAGE 1's ending at least leads directly into RAGE 2, and Avalanche Studios unironically made lemonade out of the lemon that was RAGE 1's pathetic setting.It's been so long, please remind me what they did?
>>732317767i don't keep repeating the same actions over and over again nor do i live here 24/7 which makes me noticing it even more of an indication of how frequently this type of post appears
>>732320247Ahem, so you spend the whole game fighting mutants thinking they're just radiation spawned creatures. Turns out something called the 'authority' is responsible for those things, dumping them into the wasteland making things worse. At the end of RAGE 1, there's a new mutant type revealed: The authority mutant, who they consider the ultimate super soldier as they're big and mean, but most importantly, do what they're told.After raising all the Arks, RAGE 2 is about a settlement of people like the main character of RAGE 1 trying to survive a Cross attack with those authority mutants (who is referenced in 1 but never seen)
>>732317816Are we ever gonna go back to relatively normal internet/forum discussion?
>Garan will inform him that Dan Hagar has left on a trip to the town of Gunbarrel, along with Phallinx and Becky. From that point forward, Dan is never seen nor mentioned in the game again.Probably only had John Goodman for 1 hour and they didn't want to pay to bring him back once the story changed. I'm not sure what could've been done with him after he leaves though. Dan does a le epic sacrifice to help you or betrays you. "Sorry kid but I gotta protect my family."
>>732313198If I enjoyed the Stalker and Metro games, will I enjoy the Rage games?
>>732323156STALKER and Metro are different kettles of fish. Metro doesn't get good until Exodus, but 2033 and Last Light as much as they suck, are dripping with atmosphere and can talk your ear off.RAGE is not dripping with atmosphere. They're decent environments and sometimes come off believable or tell little stories, but the world is so barren and fake that it feels like they grafted on the open world to an FPS game. RAGE 1 is more for people who like weapon porn in their FPSes and don't mind a little bit of car driving.RAGE 2 is more like the Far Cry 3-5 formula but with some absolutely god tier weapons worth seeing with barely any rehashes from the first.
>>732323156>>732323323And if you do get RAGE, you have to get the Scorchers as well because it's actually one of the best DLCs I've ever played and way better than 15-30 minute dogshit like this.
>>732323323>>732323625Ok thanks
>>732324285https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Rage#Unlock_Anarchy_Edition_DLCOh and this .txt file thing is stupidly easy and the best way to get the DLC content for free.
>>732324363I would just download a Dodi repack with all the dlcs included, desu.
>>732313198Generic LLM drivel. >integrated the content in the base game>a door to a loading zoneWow.>how much of a sequel RAGE 2 actually is thoughlol, lmao even>>732313273Engagement bait. You have been trolled. There will be others who point out ``the review suggestion shows the played time information, so why wouldn't they cover that glaring admission''.
>>732327345>>integrated the content in the base game>>a door to a loading zoneThat's literally and unironically better than most game DLCs. Especially the fact that you can use the nailgun anywhere in the game.
>>732313198Rage1 was good but Rage2 was too woke, worth pirating at most.
>>732327483>but Rage2 was too woke,It is woke but I love the weapons more than the first game, and the first game has a decent roster of weapons.
>>732314758Duke Nukem Forever
>>732327919https://www.moddb.com/mods/duke-nukem-forever-enhanced/downloads/duke-nukem-forever-enhancedFunny you bring that up because this just got updated
the ONLY thing I remember from this game is the boomerang thing, and that the game had some of the best looking skyboxes I have ever seen
>>732313198i loved. the ending was botched though. the sequel was meh, i never finished it.
have they ever fixed the hideous LOD in this game?i remember turning around and the world needed 5 seconds to load
i loved rage. i remember unlocking some variable in the console that let me strafe jump at high speeds. didnt even bother with cars, i just strafe jumped from location to location. and man, using the shotgun against those shield guys was some of the most satisfying gunplay ever.never did play the sequel though.
>>732313208>>Man-faceGet some standards anon. You're better than that
>>732333643classic bailey jay was cute as fuck though. first trans girl with 10/10 tits
>>732333643>>732333762I think in some ways she got hotter, but I can't put my finger on why.
>FPS game>Multiplayer is 4 player only combat racing>No AI bots>No 4 player split screen on consolesWHAT WAS CARMACK THINKING!?
why is OP faggot using chatgpt to write these posts?
>>732336765You're genuinely retarded.
Doom 2016 is flesh stapled to rage's bonesSeriously play a little of both right now and you'll see how similar they feel
>>732337403That's why RAGE hasn't aged a day while Borderlands is sloppy soggy Xbox 360/PS3 era shit.
>>732313198Loved both games.
>>732337478Also ran at near 60fps on a base ps3 which was unheard of at the time
>>732337527Dude yeah I remember that. It felt unlike anything else that gen. Playing it split screen coop was amazing too, and I wish either the full game was coop or that they added DLC coop missions.
>>732331583thats an engine problem. you can mitigate it but not fix entirely
>>732313198I liked enemy animations in RAGE 1.Combat was quite fun but car sections were a waste of time.Game just ended with "fuck you buddy" and sequel looked like pure garbage so I didn't even bother installing it.
>>732338038Sequel is basically a reskinned doom eternal with an open worldGameplay wise its bretty good but story and characters suck
>>732338174>but story and characters suckThat's literally the first game too.
>>732338291Except for John Goodman
>>732338432Disappears and is never mentioned again.Literally (literally) the only good character in RAGE is a DLC character, aka Sarah, and she's good by virtue of just classic storytelling>You get introduced>They show they're kinda cool>They also want to help you with your goals and to endear you, they give you something, in this case a cool weapon>She gets captured, possibly the only thing that could illicit any kind of emotion from the player in all of RAGE>That earlier endearment gives you some kind of motivation to want to go rescue herIt's very Alyx esque, but unlike Alyx, Sarah isn't an ugly blasian, but just compare her to John Marshall, who you never meet and don't even know what they look or sound like, but you're expected to go and rescue them.
Should I pick RAGE or RAGE 2?
>>732340981RAGE 2 first. It's a longer game and has an actually decent open world, and then eventually pick up RAGE 1 and see how it connects the stories together.
>>732313208i want to lick her lollipop if you understand what I'm saying
I LOVE THE SETTLER PISTOL
>>732318087rage 2 is the worst
>>732342728*Brutally mogs most weapons in RAGE 1*
>>732319091>Borderlands unironically didn't get good until 3
>>732342958>using anything except the rocket launcher and shotgunliterally whyyou don't need anything elseyes you have like 10 guns but they're completely unnecessary when you have the RL SG combo
>>732343424If you like Borderlands 1, 2 or Presequel, you're a 30fps loving 360/PS3 era retard and would probably even defend Dead Island.
>>732343619Nice projection retard but I play all of those on 144 fps.
I liked Rage 2 quite a lot and I refuse to apologize. All anybody here does is post the cover art anyway, not like they've ever played it. It had gameplay basically identical to DOOM 2016 but with different weapons, faster movement speed and some other cool stuff.
>>732343686>Nice projection retard but I play all of those on 144 fps.Borderlands 1, 2 and Presequel are floaty garbage with tiny maps full of loading screens even if you play with uncapped FPS. It's the design of them that was made with consoles in mind, retard.
>>732313198>>732313208you made this thread already
>>732319091I never played 3 but Borderlands 4 was enormously better than 2. Might get around to 3 eventually.
man this new captcha must be killing 4chan, I turn on my computer in the morning and it's literally the same fucking threads in the catalog I saw last night before I went to bed. I can understand though, who the fuck wants to sit through 30 seconds of some bullshit captcha just to make a post, and no one wants to give gook moot money for a 4chan pass
>>732344064Finally a non-retard. Tiny Tina's Wonderlands is also good. I liked that I didn't have to even pretend to care about the story because it's a dumb fantasy told by a little girl and making my own character with my bros and we all chose our own unique voices and heard them through the campaign was nice.
>>732344235Stop replying to yourself, retard. You're fooling nobody.
>>732344364Uh oh bro
>>732313198I love Rage, it has the sickest weapon roster I know of. Plus the kino art direction and crisp animationsHaven't played 2 and have no interest either
