@ORO_ERICIUS This was a feature in the first two titles and others, such as the Hearts of Iron series. It's common enough in shooters like Battlefield , Red Orchestra, and Hell Let Loose too, but I understand the sentiment.
@Impossibilium I was actually going for what @constable_what pointed out, I hear that is how the cool kids speak these days. Can totally see the confusion now though ahaha
I loved it; fantastic direction to take characters we didn't really get to know in the game. Admittedly did miss the whole high school sequence, but I'm sure there is still plenty of action to come.
@KidBoruto from what I understand, you need to beat the game on New Game+ to see the alternate ending. Optimal playthrough would be hard first time around, beating that unlocks impossible difficulty, and then play through New Game+ on impossible for the associated trophies
@GorosBat My hopes exactly. I tried watching the anime but bounced off for whatever reason. This reminds me of Dragon Quest XI, and I'm hoping it will be my way into this particular universe
@KAIRU It is in a much better place, especially compared to the beta which almost scared me off, but honestly, I couldn't recommend it. We are in a weird place now where Call of Duty is doing Battlefield better than Battlefield, and Warzone at least is free haha
@Northern_munkey pretty much my experience too, really wanted to enjoy 2042 more, and it does seem to be heading in the right direction. That being said, haven't been able to stop playing MW2 since it dropped, especially loving DMZ
@nessisonett You and me both, now my nerdier obsessions can be satisfied on my platform of choice. Add Mount and Blade 2 to that list, we will be eating well for the coming months
@Northern_munkey I'm genuinely fascinated to see if 30fps truly is a deal breaker for the audience at large. Like, it is for me, and I'll pick this one up on PC. But I legitimately don't know if that matters to a more casual gamer, someone who just loves Batman and doesn't often read gaming websites. Hopefully, we get some sales numbers and find out!
@Gamer_Guy I personally think Wrath is the better of the two, Kingmaker is fantastic in its own right, though, and well worth a play. Maybe check Kingmaker out, that way you can see if the Pathfinder formula works for you in a low risk way
@Constable_What I'd never heard of this one until this morning, and I totally agree, it ticks all the boxes and is a day one for me too. Only have a week to play it before Like a Dragon: Ishin! comes out though, but that should be time enough
@somnambulance me too! The next Dark Pictures game, The Devil In Me, is putting an emphasis on expanded gameplay, so hopefully, that will extend to this project as well
@KidBoruto That hasn't been confirmed, but I would certainly hope it is. It could just be a case where PSVR games are ported to PSVR2, kind of how a lot of PS3 games came to PS4. Will have to wait and see i suppose!
@Elodin might I recommend the Gendarme/Mad Dog multi class, a knight who rides a massive war dog into battle. I have been planning this for a long time now haha 🙏
@Northern_munkey I'm glad you think so! I picked up Raji but haven't had a chance to play, and will probably get to Lost Epic eventually. Did spring for RimWorld and the DLC today so going to dive into that over the weekend
@Milktastrophe Sorry for the confusion! Have updated to make things clearer. Progress was reset during the closed alpha, which took place back in May, but not during the early access beta period, which just ended. There won't be any resets going forward. No wonder they needed to put out a statement
@nessisonett it’s an interesting situation, because while I love animals in general and my Dachshund in particular, I have no qualms about hunting in a game like Red Dead Redemption. Hunting in a modern setting does somehow more callous, but I can’t really put my finger on why 🧐
@evilkaiser86 You're right, referencing Escobar directly was insensitive and I've updated the wording accordingly. Clearly, the game is glorifying that time period to some extent, but that doesn't mean I have to. Thanks for the insight.
@AFCC I stayed strong and picked up the Shadow Run Trilogy instead, which has sated my need for a new game for now haha. That's a shame to hear, but yeah I'll hang on until its FTP
