ElTerprise: True. But with modern technology most armies are cannon fodder.....

Well there's Clarkes law after all which you also mentioned :)
Exactly, so no skill required. You will be like the Star Wars clones, who can never seem to hit anything, and who get beaten by some fluffy teddy bears. :-)

Exactly, so no more denying you are an evil wizard. :-)

Well according to the canon those Stormtroopers weren't clones because the Empire couldn't afford clones :P

I'd prefer the term Technomage :P



Anyway. I'll be heading to bed now. i wish you and everyone else hanging around a good night *big goodnight hugs and waves

Goodnight, ElT. Sleep well and pleasant dreams. I hope you feel much better in the morning.

Hello all, hope you're all having a great time of day :)

Three hours in, I am LOVING Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell! I mean, I'm enjoying nearly every single bit of it, there has been one mission series so far that I didn't like that much and even those missions weren't bad, they were just heavy on strategy (which is fine) yet reliant on a little RNG luck as to if the enemy would use a certain technique (which was mildly annoying).

The only complaint I have (and it's a mild one) is that the game seems to expect you to play as Gat, even though you can play as Gat OR as Kinzie (I'm playing as Kinzie of course). For example: Even if you're playing as Kinzie, in all of the "tutorial" cutscenes Gat is the character shown displaying the new skill or style of side mission, and some of the cutscene's dialogue refer to the player character as Gat even if you're playing as Kinzie.

Oh and the game's version of Hell is pretty awesome, sort of a mix between Steelport and Stilwater and of course, err...hell-ized. It kinda has a feel similar to Constantine's (on the Ps2) Hell levels, which isn't a bad thing.
I think I just saw the most frustrating/crazy thing in gaming ever.

I was trying to beat a boss in "Luckslinger" for going on two hours with no luck. I get my husband to come over and see how hard it is, see if he can get past it. I do the rest of the level so he's going to face the boss...the boss rides up, and before he can even begin to move or shoot, the boss drops down dead. I'm not joking. I have no idea why this happened. I was screaming in frustration and my husband was acting like he's the best thing since sliced bread.

I just, I can't...how in the world did that happen?!
My dad, picks the fruit,

That goes to Cottees,

To make the cordial,

That I like best.

Good evening. Hope you've had a pleasant day as well. =)

Glad to hear you're enjoying the game so much. The problem with what you mentioned is that Johnny is supposed to be the star, despite him having the charisma of a burnt grilled cheese sandwich next to Kinzie. Not exactly sure why they put both characters in, beyond padding the game with places only Kinzie can activate to get a dribble of flavor voiceover.

It sounds like a bug. Not seeing anything on the Steam page for it or elsewhere about some secret weakness.

Aye, I know it's supposed to be "Gat's game" and that he's supposed to be the #2 to the boss's #1 (or 1b to 1a) in terms of character rank...but yeah at the game's worst it does kinda make you wonder why they even made Kinzie playable. I mean, I've actually enjoyed Gat's moments so far but I'm playing exclusively as Kinzie haha.

I guess I'm one of those odd few that ranks Kinzie above most of the other Saints, Pierce is okay for the most part, Gat has his moments (and I do generally like him)...Shaundi leans toward annoying me for the most part. Maybe it's because Kinzie has more of a "backstory" when compared to the others? Gat has a long history with the boss but Pierce and Shaundi joined early in the 2nd game with no backstory at all provided, the other Saints were mostly one and dones.

Or maybe I like her because she's fairly similar to Fred on Angel? haha

What's on your playlist, still playing Dex? I spent an hour or two in that one and really liked it, it just got bumped down off the "currently playing" list for Gat Out of Hell.

Thanks Crow, I didn't see anything either. It was just so dang ironic that I was complaining how hard this level was all day to my husband, and then the first time he tries it he wins instantly. -_- lol How are you, how's your multi-gaming going? :)

The name of the title might indicate the reason.
Or you can go with my personal theory that your husband is a wizard.
If I were you, I'd just say that you wore the boss down to the point that he dropped dead just as your husband sat down. It was all you. Totally.
