  1. I'm hoping they call the second iteration Steam Deck DP Edition.
  2. Mine also still says 2nd quarter. Has since I reserved one 10 minute after reservations opened up.
  3. I like some Warner Brothers games. I still think that Mad Max game was super fun if repetitive.
  4. Usually when I get the urge to play a Bethesda game I then proceed to spend 20 hours getting my mods in order only to be completely over the idea within the first 10 hours of actual game.
  5. Hopefully he didn't inherit his father's male pattern baldness too.
  6. I'm playing on PC and have no idea what either the first or two look like on console, but on PC Elex 2 looks vastly better than 1. At first I couldn't see it because it's still a whole generation behind in graphics but then I looked at side-by-side screen shots and was amazed at how much better Elex 2 looked (I played both games on the same rig). Also, it's hard to love your son when he looks like someone sewed the head of an Elizabethan doll onto a Claymation extra.
  7. Right, sooo, I uh deleted my Elex 2 save and started a new game. Again. I had 40 hours in that save. I had around 20 in the last one. A bug, which was patched halfway through my last save, lead me to believe that I was in a good place with a faction only to find out later that I really wasn't. That faction happened to be the one that I wanted to join. Honestly, if the UI had originally correctly told me the factions reaction I would've just rolled with it (I like having unexpected consequences for my actions in rpgs) but the bug just makes me feel cheated so I started over.
  8. Since I already owned it and it just full released, I gave Black Geyser a whirl. Big problem right up front at character creation: you can't see your character model when picking out what your character looks like. There aren't many customization options (this usually doesn't bother me) but I had to tab back and forth between two different pages, scroll down to the bottom of the character description page to see what each hairdo is labeled as to know what my guy would be wearing. I think they did this because the character models still look bad outside of the environment of the game world. Probably didn't want players buying the game, downloading it, opening it up, getting to character creation and seeing the models, uninstalling, and refunding the game.
  9. Honestly, they don't push the Berserkers as hard as they did in the first game. At least they're shown treating their new . . . uh, converts? like second class citizens. In the first game the only draw back to the Berserkers is NPCs b!tching about you using your jetpack (which they dropped for this game).
  10. Elex 2: After about 25 hours I deleted my save a week ago when I realized that I accidentally sided with one faction over another long before I'd intended to join a faction. In my next save I cranked up the difficulty 'cause as far as Piranha Bytes games goes, Elex 2 is a little on the easy side. Since then I've put another 30 hours in and finally feeling like I'm ready to pick a faction.
  11. Black Geyser: Couriers of Darkness is set for a full release on March 17: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1374930/view/3111426824836670909 I played some of the early access about (pausing--headmath) eight months ago. It was in pretty rough shape but from a glance through the steam forums it seems like it's been coming along well.
  12. To be fair, nothing in their back and forth dialog remotely suggests that Caja is raising Dex either. Mostly it sounds like she dragged him around with her on missions and left him with her underlings. The real parenting sounds like it was done by the unnamed hunters in her entourage.
  13. Yeah but it's easier to build a team when you're not paying one guy a 4th of you're cap space.
  14. And the last time the Hawks went to a super bowl he was in his rookie contract.
  15. Seahawks trade Wilson and a 4th for two 1sts, two 2nds, a 5th, defensive end Shelby Harris, tightend Noah Fant, and quarterback Drew Lock.
  16. Man. I don't know if it's bugs or a corrupt save file but Elex 2 has crashed to desktop on me about 6 times the last 2 days. I know I've been doing 12 hour sessions, but come on.
  17. The ones I have aren't bad games and The only 'soulslike' I've finished is the one that's closest to being a normal rpg, Ashen and that was because of the questing.
  18. I own like 7 or 8 soulslike games and I've never played more than about 10-15 hours on any one 'cause I find them boring. All rpgs have the explore - fight - loot - level gameplay loop but in souls games those loops feel stunted without an actual story. The combat and exploration aren't interesting or satisfying enough to hold my attention.
  19. I've confirmed Jax's son, Dex is the Chosen One. Where we mere mortals have to use jetpacks, Dex is capable of unassisted human flight. Have you ever seen an angel fly? Or at least a filthy child?
  20. I'm about 15 hours into Elex 2 and sitting around level 13. I've scrounged enough weapons and armor and had enough levels that I'm starting to get to the point of not having to run in every fight. Wish my babymama wasn't such a nag, though.
  21. I just finished that quest like an hour ago. I'm in North America and I think they censored the word 'cocaine' in the song.
