Mamoulian War

Not even started it. I remember the times when I wished that Europe would also get Tales games. Today, I have Xillia 2, Symphonia, Symphonia 2, Zestiria and Berseria to play. They are patiently waiting in my backlog. Just for good measure: I want to complete Star ocean 5. Not a good game by any means, but I'm so far in that there's no reason not to try and complete it. Well for some reason I liked SO5 more than SO4. And the Live Events were funny... (mostly) and also, I like the game more than FFXV as well. I know, I am strange person sometimes Thankfuly I have finished all Tales of Games for PS3 and PS4 (excluding ToV) but so far I’ve platinued only Graces f and both Xillias. After I finish Vesperia, I will sooner or later try to fully complete Zestiria. Symphonia is so far my least favourite and not looking forward to play it again at the moment.

Still not persuaded yourself for Xillia 2 platinum?

Exactly!

The only resentment they got from me is this: https://www.gog.com/game/neverwinter_nights_enhanced_edition_digital_deluxe_edition 50.49€ for a remaster of the game plus premium modules which were previously free... that's a daylight robbery... My from US imported Diamond Edition, with all premium modules bought in now defunct Bioware store, were cheaper when brand new and when the value of Slovakian Koruna was ****...

It doesn't matter, you're a buisness man. You can buy any game you want and play them whenever you want. That doesn't change the fact, that anything made by Ubi, EA, Acti is for me just waste of money, because I've already played everything, they can offer already 10 years ago

I don't have a lot of RL stuff to do(just a boring job from 8 to 16 o clock) but even I lack the motivation to play games like I did some 10 years ago when I was 25. Part of it also has to do with the fact that I have played and finished about 300+ games on various platforms and after such a long time, you do get the feeling of 'I have seen/played this before'. Still, there are games that I am curious about, I am just not sure if I will ever get to play them. Well, the feeling of playing the same **** over and over, was the main reason, why I've completely stopped purchasing western AAA games with comming of PS3, with very few exceptions like Mortal Kombat and Gid of War. I am now completely indy, japanese, retro gamer, and I still feel enough motivation to enjoy my games even at my early 40ies. The only issue I have, is that when I know, I will be going for longer business trip, I hesitate to start a new game. For days like these, I still have my Assetto Corsa though

More on topic: https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2019/01/tales-of-an-aging-gamer-why-dont-i-pick-up-a-controller-as-often-as-i-used-to/ And one of the more notable paragraphs: While this could be due solely to a decline in enthusiasm for some, an alternative explanation is that many older gamers—especially when they have longterm partners, become parents, or ascend into highly demanding professional positions—simply have different priorities and less time for gameplay. And when you have plenty of other things to do, it’s easy to avoid activities that appear to be either too easy and thus boring, or too difficult and thus frustrating.

Tbh, the bigger factor for being less efficient in gaming in higher age is lack of time for practice in conjunction with having lot of RL stuff on mind all the time than getting older.

After seeing how has Beamdog enhanced NWN1 (mostly with the price hike) I would not be very sure to to want to see them enhancing NWN2 as well...

It's very individual, some people have nausea, some people have problems with motion stability, and some do not have a problem at all. I have nausea from VR only when I am tipsy, but I am not able to play VR stuff while standing.

Xbox also tried to force Kinect, and we all know how it ended. VR costs a lot, and bundling it, would lead to PS5 being to expensive compared to competition IMO. Edit: also OLED on DS5 and DS5 being as big as DS4 according the article makes the article to me not very plausible. Also 6TB SSD, would hike up the price of the unit to the 1000bucks area, which makes the article even less believable.

Doing slow progress in Tales of Vesperia, and trying to stream the thing, but stupid twitch mutes in every video one music for few minutes, which btw loops the whole time... That muting feature is pretty stupidly done... Besides that, I love the game

I miss the option “Still on my backlog”. I feel so excluded :’(

And first three races done in the GT2 career part of Assetto Corsa. I really like BMW Z4 GT3 car, compared to few previous beasts. Three races on first place in four attempts. So far my best Assetto session My three best races on twitch https://www.twitch.tv/videos/362164089?collection=Qf8vjkqicBUncg

My precious Tales of Vesperia Definitive Edition Premium Edition has just arrived And I have to go on a business trip starting on Sunday

I think it is better to not buy Ubisoft games anywhere :-P

Hence why I never click on forum post links if I can't read the url. I do not know how about you, but I got hovering text of the URL, after I left my mouse pointer over it for few seconds

A little funny take on AAA publishers Jim Sterling presents! Seven Deadly Sins :D

There was also complete pack on PS3 released by NISA. All 3 on one BluRay. The original versions not the Vita re:birth remakes.

Finally finished the GT1 Quick Races in Career mode in Assetto Corsa. I found out, that I really hate McLaren MP4-12C GT3 car, because the rear wheels are always sliding away for me, and with combination with Mugello circuit, I've spent 2.5 half hours to win the race on Medium difficulty, before I had to give up and drop it to Easy All other cars in the championship are very good for handling even in base setup. All I've needed to win was Slick Soft tyres and little bit of practice. If anyone is curious, here are 3 today's races : https://www.twitch.tv/videos/359809701?collection=Qf8vjkqicBUncg

For freebies, last I knew, Audacity, noise reduction feature. It likely won't be perfect (too much can make the other sounds wonky) but it may reduce it enough for you to tolerate it. I haven't fiddled with that stuff very much tho, so I'm not an expert. The general concept is to extract the audio from the video as a .wav, you have to find a short example of just the noise (a segment without any of the actual game noises in it) so Audacity has a reference point to run an auto filter. Or you can just try to manually choose some settings. When you're done, put the audiotrack back/replace the original track via a video editor. There's probably tutorials on YouTube or other, somewhere. Through my "pc speakers" your video isn't that bad - eg the game noises can be easily heard at a lower volume setting where the white noise feedback sound isn't really that audible. But I'd guess headphones is where it's very noticeable even at low volumes. Thanks for help, I've played little bit with your recommendations, and I've got this in the end: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/358671863 Unfortunately, the quality of video went down as well during the editing. The sound is little bit ridiculous now, but still much better Thanks again.

Yes. Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2 was real gem!

Guys and gals, anyone with knowledge of video editing can help me out (or with streamer OBS software)? I have started for my own fun do do some streaming, and planning to upload some of my noobie videos later on youtube, but my PC somehow fails me with sound stuff. I have noticed it only today, and it ruined my Xenonauts video, with weird backsound from my MIC, even if it is disconnected. I would like to ask you for an advice, if it is possible to remove that annoying and stupid sound with some free video editing software, and how to do it, because I fail at the knowledge how to repair it Because I would like to repair it and reupload the cleaned version again Many thanks for any help. Here is the link to the ruined video https://www.twitch.tv/videos/358433148

And first game of 2019 finished just few minutes ago I have finally defeated Xenonauts after long break I've taken, when I've moved to my new place, two years ago. The game is excellent tribute to original Xcom games, and I've enjoyed it, despite some of the missions with Reapers were frustrating, because even if I ended my turn with lot of TUs saved for "overwatch" shots, most of my agents in most cases started to shoot at them, after they killed someone already. And that was actually the main reason, why I took such a long break from the game Despite this big flaw, O can't wait to see the release of second game, and hope, they will make it less frustrating

Yes, it is called Legacy of Fire, unfortunately, it was made in OGL 3.5 rules and not PF rules, so game adaptation will probably never happen Maybe in the future, once I get a driving job with a more regular schedule, some of us forumites can get a Legacy of Fire p&p game going over the interwebs via roll20? I'm feenin' for some Arabian Nights roleplaying. I am up for it, just most of the time, it is impossible for me to find good schedule for EU and US timezone cooperation
