FFD: What’s the best game none of your friends are playing?

Helldivers

You’ve tried. You’ve told your mates over and over about how awesome this new, under-the-radar game is, and they just don’t seem to listen. You’ve told them about its amazing systems, how it does new things that big budget releases could only dream of. You’ve shouted from the rooftops – but why isn’t anyone listening?

Is there a game that you’re busy playing, that nobody else seems to be all that excited about – despite your insistence? Maybe you’ve been telling everybody for the last year and a half that Pillars of Eternity is amazing, and it’s all fallen on deaf ears (Hi eXCheez!), maybe you’re still trying to convince everybody that Evolve is actually some of the most multiplayer fun you’ll ever have (‘Sup, Nick!)?

Me? I’ve been playing a bunch of Helldivers, telling everybody who cares to listen what a good time it is – and I see very few people on my friends list playing it. Exclusive to PlayStation platforms for now, the game takes the best bits of Warframe and Destiny, and actually makes it fun. In the bug-infested levels, it all feels like the Starship Troopers game that should have been. In her review, Zoe said:

“Helldivers is hopelessly addictive and brilliantly brutal. You will find yourself playing with a gleeful smile throughout, either thanks to crushing foes with your drop shipped turret or because of shooting your enemy with bullets full of freedom. Fast-paced and humorous with deep combat, this space romp should be required in every PS4 owner’s library.”

And damn, is that an assessment I agree with. Seriously. Get Helldivers. Play Helldivers. Be Happy. But that’s me. What games are you playing that nobody else seems to be?

            The standard weapons are quite badass.

            The entry level carbine I’m still rolling with on Engineer and Light Assault. I’ve unlocked about 5 infiltrator weapons (DAT RAILJACK FTW) and one other Heavy LMG.

            Also AA and AT rocket launchers, and then I’ve heavily upgraded my Reaver (the ESF)

            Some scopes for the guns as well and some armour and cloak upgrades.

            And all this I did by just playing, not one dorrar was spent

      • Umar

        April 10, 2015 at 10:45

        Well, Root A was oddly paced though, felt like a lot of nothing in the start and the story made little sense which is understandable, but the anime was very rushed when you look at the manga. I mean look at Eto, the anime doesn’t explain any of her story or even Kaneki’s journey in Aogiri. Fighting animations also seemed off. THAT said, still fucking loved it. Dat ending, man. I cried and it really hit me hard. That final episode was probably the best moment in Anime I’ve had in such a long time. That exchange between Hide and Kaneki was brilliant and the ending scene where the acoustic version of Unravel plays was so good. Overall, I REEEEEALLY enjoyed the series. Might’ve been rushed, but it was hella well done/

            HAHA, yeah, it was pretty sudden and wtf. Anime was really rushed in relation to the manga, which made the ending seem all the more confusing, but the way Hide made Kaneki feel human again was just fucking brilliant in all honesty. It was one of the better endings I’ve seen in recent memory.

          fighting animations are always off in modern anime, they do that whole cut frame animation, so you only see the start or the end of a movement.

          drives me flipping mad.
          shokugeki no soma has better fight scenes than most modern anime, and its a cooking anime.
          but then again, i was super impressed by the first episode of shokugeki no soma. do yourself a favour and watch it.

          also world trigger is pretty great.

            seen it around, but never bothered watching it, never been a fan of mecha anime.
            the only ones i liked were TTGL, break blade and aldnoah zero.
            if you havent seen break blade or aldnoah zero, do yourself a favour.
            break blade is cinematic genius and aldnoah zero is just plain good.

          • Kromas is drunk with power!

            April 10, 2015 at 11:11

            It is a lot less mecha than you would think. Aldnoah Zero was good TTGL and break blade was okay. Also I am not a major mecha fan with the exception of Tengan toppen Guren Lagan cause that was an awesom e series. 🙂

            April 10, 2015 at 11:11

            shokugeki no soma is only on episode one atm, but the manga is awesome, the ecchi in the anime is pretty heavy compared to the manga, but the art in it is the best ive seen in years.

            yeah slideshow anime is starting to get old, watching diamond no ace atm, but the slideshow pitching is getting pretty annoying.

            nanatsu no tanzai is the seven deadly sins right? great anime, havent read the manga though. last couple of episodes i have mixed feelings about, great fights, but meh story.

            assassination classroom was pretty legit aswell

            The day they make an adaptation of Breaker is the day I will cry uncontrollably. Hardly see Manhwa anime though. Have you checked out Death Parade?

          • Matthew Holliday

            April 10, 2015 at 11:22

            yeah, manwha needs more love, its a pity all the story lines are so similar though.
            god of highschool, veritas, breaker & gamer all have such similar lore.

            death parade was fun, just because it was different, didnt think it was particularly excellent otherwise.

          • Umar

            April 10, 2015 at 11:24

            Lol yeah Manhwa sure love their highschool kungfu fighters. Even Noblesse has one and that show is about vampires lol

            Yeah, quite enjoying DP, The individual stories of the people that died are quite well done.

            Kuroko is awesome, as well as Yawamushi Pedal. I enjoyed PoT somewhat, the matches just lacked proper animation which was a deal breaker for me.

          • Kromas is drunk with power!

            April 10, 2015 at 12:41

            Both were good but not really the best I have seen even this year. Uso could have gone better with character development and Aldnoah went wonky after the mid season break.

            I would suggest Akagame ga Kill as a better alternative to Aldnoah.

          • Aries

            April 10, 2015 at 14:18

            Watched that, wasnt as good for me as Aldnoah though, for me the character development in Akagame was bad, going from killing with not thought to thinking it wrong

            It is a School based slice of life anime with a huge twist. No real character develpment and no real plot so to speak. It is rated as one of the top 10 anime to watch this century and really is just a big bag of silly fun.

    Trying to get co-op going for months now:

    GTAV, Borderlands, Helldivers, Evolve,

    We tried Bloodborne co-op, it’s about the worst co-op experience I’ve had to date, a mission to get your mate into your game and the first death drops you both out and you have to start all over again, very useless.

            Given that u die often, it’s a stupid prohibitive mechanic that adds misery and regret to the gameplay.

            It woulda been fine if you could just respawn at a lamp and run back to your mate, but noooo, bloodborne needs to be stupid hard in all aspects…. hate that part of the game.

    No one’s playing Borderlands 2 on PC anymore (Except the Admiral, yes I saw you)… what’s wrong with you people?

    Also GTAV (Xbox 360 and soon to be PC), One Finger Death Punch (PC and mobile), Don Bradman 14, Mount & Blade Warband, and the Deponia series.

        I have to admit, that screen shot put me off the game. The Japanese don’t do tutorials either. They all just seem to be wired into the matrix from the age of 3. It took me around 8 hours to figure out the flow of the mechanics. I can see why the West just do Bro Shooters.

        But once it clicks it becomes more addictive than all of the boring turn based Final Fantasy games combined.

        The game is Sweeeeeet.

    Max Payne 3 was one of those games…. Years ago, but none of my friends, imaginary or otherwise, wanted to join… come to think of it, my friends still don’t, but mainly because they play completely different games to start off with… I’d love to do a PC GTA V challenge if anyone is keen, but I’m sure getting people to play with is about as easy as it is to let people listen to this guys’ music…

          I didn’t realise how much I missed playing games like this. And the tactical combat is awesome, you really do have to utilise the terrain & your abilities or else you’ll get owned in no time flat – that was a rude awakening lol. I just finished up in Cyseal yesterday, that last fight against Braccus, it was fun/not fun.

            The first time I got completely owned. He nailed my entire team with that damn fireball or whatever it is he uses & practically took them out one shot.

            Second time I managed to kill the squishy henchman quickly enough, but they kept stun locking my main melee & took out the mage.

            Third time I positioned them outside the chamber & sent one in to start the fight then run out the room so they’d follow her & lead them into a trap, used rain to make everyone nice & wet, summoned air elementals & used plenty of lightning & chill blast to stun or freeze him while I took out the others first.
