LA Noire aged like a fine wine. Kino film noir experience. Replaying it right now in 4k + 60fps.
Poor man's Ace Attorney Phoenix Wright. Glad Rockstar dropped this franchise.
>>736265336The last good Rockstar game right there
>>736265336Did anyone else hate the Kelso segments? I just never liked the guy that much.
>>736265336I imagine how kino a sequel would be in like 1960/70s San Francisco like dirty harry
i know it sounds weird, but to me this game didnt feel very much like a film noir at all. and its not even just the colors, the story and the tone also didnt feel very noir to me....The one case that felt like a film noir is the one with the boxer and you had to go around town to find out where he is.
>>736265336doesn't 60fps break the physics or something
>>736266274The Fallen Idol in the Traffic Desk felt like a Film Noir, in that everyone is in on it and a horrifying scumbag.
I like the dialogue in it.
>>736266274It's more neo-noir than classic noir honestly, Chinatown was clearly a huge influence on this game
>>736265336>You drive, I need to go over the case noteshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VnP4hEMRQtw
>>736266456been a few years since I replayed it but I believe there was an easy community mod fix for this that allowed 60fps but unfucked the driving and stuff
>>736266656>>736266969we used to be a country
Act 3 felt pretty rushed, I didn't like Cole's death, I didn't mind that he died or that the corrupt cops won, but just getting swept away by some water to cut to a funeral was pretty unsatisfying
I woulda liked the game if you would have been actually rewarded for figuring out the killer early.I knew it was the bartender right away but I gotta dance around for another 3 hours
>>736265336You fuck young boys, anon?
>>736267215They really fumbled the Homicide Desk.
>>736267032Whatever you say Rajesh.
>>736265715I didn't HATE them but he's definitely not as interesting as Phelps
To this day I still think Cole's death was stupid.>dies submerged in shit>the guy you hated the most gives a speech in your funeral
>>736266656Yeah, it totally feels like an old school rockstar game: facist, racist, antisemitic you name it
>>736267742Its a noir after all
>>736266969Cole has the best insults of any Rockstar protagonist.>"You stomped her because you're such aweakfuckingsister,Jacob."
I LIKE YOUR ASS
>>736265715Nah. Jack Kelso game when?
It's been a while since I played this, admittedly only once, but what the fuck was with the story? It's just isolated cases strung together while you get promoted/moved from desk to desk. Meanwhile there's supposed to be some overarching plot about vietnam vets getting addicted to morphine, and Phelps having an affair, which is all happening in the background. And not even a>oh just explore, or do this and that and the story is more obviousNone of that, just straight up the occasional "oh by the way"Like what the fuck?
>>736265336Everything is fake & gay now. Will be your youtube video title...
>>736265336You can't play it at 4k 60 because the facial animations are locked.
>>736267742That's the point, retard. Cole dies a hero after surviving as a coward in the war. The people he hated get glory and use his death as a decoy. It's great storytelling.
>>736265905And then give us a late 80s/90s peak urban blight and racial tension game
>>736267742It's a Noir. They're always very cynical and pessimistic and rarely have happy endings
YOU GIVE ME INFORMATIONAND I WON'T GIVE YOU TO IMMIGRATION
Cant be a corrupt cop , all case can be solve in 5 min.Cant kill the bad guy .This is actually one of the worst rockstar game after max payne 3 of course.
>>736270830you can, but the facial animations play at a lower framerate and resolution and it looks pretty janky
>>736267346ARE YOU A MAD MAN?
>>736265336Honestly I pirated it and hit my first doubt prompt on the first real misson where instead of doubting cole makes a wild and highly specific accusation for no reason and I turned it off
