  1. I've heard from a few people whose opinions I mildly trust that it's good to great, but I've also heard from a few other people whose opinions I trust at least a little more that it's pretty bad. I can only assume it's one of those things where if it clicks, it clicks, and if it doesn't, into the trash it goes.

  2. At some point the system may change anyhow. The console generation cycle has always relied on experiences that were fundamentally unachievable with prior hardware. If there's no novelty involved, any new console generation becomes a bit of a hard sell. Graphics advancement has significantly slowed down. Whilst actual photo realism is still a good few years away -- not every game may sell on realism as is already. This is also a part of the triple-A crisis: "Decent graphics" are pretty much everywhere. Much like special effects in Hollywood, it's all dime a dozen. It's hard to truly "WOW" anybody anymore. For decades, studios could rely on that Police Academy 25, er, Assassin's Creed 15 would sell anyhow, as it looked so much more realistic than the one before it. No more. And one day games may be consumed the same way as movies -- or similar. It's when people don't at all care how old a game is. For as long as it's not from the stone ages of video gaming, where hardware limitations proved still a severe challenge. They aren't really anymore. Haven't been for a few years already. Outside of ultra realistic graphics and literally building the holodeck, game makers could make anything they wanted to make today. Only that, they rarely do. They are afraid to do it. Or aren't allowed to make it. As with rising budgets comes rising risk. Even THE NEXT BIG THING this industry is waiting for is another sequel to a franchise now entering its third decade. Meanwhile Warren Spector's once dream project idea is far more likely to be tackeled by 'em indies -- naturally, with a more focused scope, rather than GOING ALL IN WITH EM MILLIONS OF CA$H.

  3. Apologies if this has already been mentioned.... The day/night cycle seems accelerated. Or that is feels like it's night longer than it is day and that daytime is super brief. Could be just a 'feels' thing, but I would love some more daytime. Thx, fun game so far!

  5. Looks like I'm late to this discussion. As far gaming goes with me, I've been gaming since '85. I'm still gaming in 2025. You could say that I'm a retro gamer since the games I play are generally over 20 years old. Idle Heroes is the only modern game that I play. Note: I find it sad that there isn't a lot of interest in The SW Knights of the Old Republic games. I play them often.

  7. On my 7800X3D-5090 rig, none of the 58x.xx GR drivers work. The only NV GR driver that does is 577.00.

  8. I gave up on this a while back but can't say I'm not enjoying watching this somehow get spectacularly worse with each update

  9. I lost all interest when they said your character had another vampire inside their head. WOD has so much to offer, it doesn't need dumb gimmicks.

  10. I never expected anything good from that developer, but not even trying is worse than I thought.

  11. I played this guy together with the barb tank "Golden Dragon", and the barb's defenses + ACC debuffs together with the paladin's defense buffs lead to an untouchable main tank and to a very sturdy party. Debuffing ACC and buffing defenses at the same time (also had a priest) is very effective. I later retrained the whole party to 3 CON.
