When it comes to imagination, it's all subjective, but rule of thumb was always that there should be immersion, not realism. One of points to have characters looking realistic is that you can customize them after your liking, if there's no customization, but realism in looks, then you want movie quality game. And you don't play a movie, movie plays for you, which is reason why realistic looking games never appeal to me, but popularity is clear with those. I would simply chose a game where I can get immersive feeling, like Ghost of a Tale over Call of Duty, but obviously movie type of games made the most money.

It still applies to character models.

quite true

isn't that company led by ex Bard Tale developers or owners or something?

too much bugs currently, I experienced a little amount of them, but still not overly happy because of them. Still this is game I had been dreaming since NWN2, so it's great in my book. Crusade management is something I don't like.

I don't think models are ugly, but animations could do some work. Also character creation models are weird, but in game, if you hold still, it looks OK. I agree it has some potentials, but it delivers same experience as BG1 that made sense in late 90s, but not today, in 20s of 21st century. God it's already twenties today? I feel awfully old.

This feels like BG1 made with exact same resources like BG - or at least with skills of BG1 developer. Baldur's Gate is fine game - for something 25-30 years old, this isn't up the standard brand new. I'm not talking about graphics, or budget - it feels more depressed than skillful.

it's bad.

I do follow Niche gamer and I am familiar with comments. They are too toxic for me and I avoid writing anything. Trying to find alternatives, love when they do reviews.

you got me I do like browsing here, you're much nicer than gog forums. But I also like to browse magazines (like physical ones) and digital news sites and I miss late physical era of my childhood.

I thing waylander is dragon age type of RTWP on another note, can you share which news site do you follow? Any tricks to browsing gaming topics, how do you found those articles?

Some pics of Genshin

it's been ages since they missed initial release date, though.

I would rate it around 92, which in my book means almost perfect

So, my experience with Genshin Impact has been rather positive, but so positive I decided to burn money into it, which I usually never do in multiplayer/online service games. Genshin is a weird beast. It's singleplayer, it's free to play and it's a gatcha game. Gatcha games relies on luck and rolls with "wishes" or currency to obtain new characters. Although rates where you can get 5* characters are pretty low, you can basically farm wishes in daily tasks and there is pity system, both of which is lacking in most of other gatchas. Now, how is gameplay? Gameplay is action game with pretty unique twist on party mechanics, you basically apply elemental reactions on surrounding area/monsters that persist to apply another element to same place with different character. It's big elemental game. Combat is pretty much fast paced, bit easy, but very much fun. Graphics are anime like, and I would say they are well done... and so is the music. When I started this game I couldn't believe I would play this so persistently, but I did. I feel like my worries from before this game launched weren't that justified.

So, Nvidia capture worked fine, recorded game audio just fine. Then I plugged in mic. Now, Nvidia videos behave like I didn't turn on game audio at all. Just recorded mic. I believe issue is in my sounds settings, but I don't know what I did wrong. I set up listen to this device in sound panel, and have done mumbo jumbo to record my voice. Sure I record my voice now, but I got no game audio. Windows 10 here. Any help?

yeah, that sounds like total crap.

what's exactly is a live service in games?

isn't that what denuvo is? what's live service in that?

Unpopular opinion: I don't think live service was bad for consumer less unpopular and less opinion and more question-like: what was issue with live service? What was so wrong with it? What was it all about?

I think many of us care about game reviews, but loathe on misusing politics in these reviews. Some of us, gamers, prefer video reviews, but I got to say, as non native English speaker, I prefer English text over English sound, because I don't hear much - on youtube I need subtitles.

I'm trying to avoid purchasing anything on Epic. Thing is, I don't mind purchasing timed exclusives, but only when it comes to steam. I only want to avoid epic, not cripple myself. Truth to be told, games epic is after I'm mostly disinterested, although there were few of them I actually had to wait and once exclusivity was over I did bought them.
