Fallout New Hope
The plan was tests for some mars colonization stuff or something wacky like that. God, I hate the vault experiments so much.

Cinéma vérité - and all other types
Man, what the hell was that.. Good to see I'm not the only one who's like wtf about this trailer. You know, I don't like writing this, but seeing Milla Jovovich in this movie... I don't think it will be good. For some weird reason it's YEARS since I've seen a good movie with her in. At this point I'm feeling like.. whenever Milla Jovovich is in a movie and has a bigger role, it's just not a good movie.

Only if you have pockets full of cash and feel like it's a good idea to spend hundreds of 'em on a single game.

Just check out some of the Reddit threads and you'll get more than enough material. Can't talk for the Fallout game, but at least in RDOs case.

Should have waited till they start burning. There's so many of these details in the game, it's really amazing.

These "macro"transactions are the same crap in RDO. Sorry but $20 just isn't micro at all... Can't believe how many people are defending this, as if they are a small indie studio that needs all the money it can get to survive.

What did you do today?
Amazon Prime started adding lots of old stuff to their sub-channels to charge you more money. Especially some old wild west movies and TV shows... this annoyed the hell out of me.

TV's Vast Wasteland
I'm guessing end of 2019. So happy Amazon picked up the show. Probably going to rewatch season 3 again sometime in early 2019.

What game did you bought last?
Both games are awesome and I didn't felt like the story sucks. It's not the most original thing, but the setting is fresh. And yeah, the level design is awesome. Billie Lurk is a great character. Loved the style, the background, the relationship with Daud, etc... I really wouldn't mind another game with her.

Looks much smaller than my screenshots.

What game did you bought last?
Yes, bought this ultimate whatever package with everything included. I've started playing a bit, but forced me to stop, as I don't want to get into it too much right now. Have to say that I'm quite distracted since I bought the console with RDR2.

So based on Star Trek DS9, it's a valid solution to give someone amnesia if that person has suicidal tendencies.

Ugh, not again. Here's the short version: - No choice and consequences in dialogues. - Not even dialogue trees or anything remotely similar. - No choice and consequences in any mission. - No player driven character development outside of buying new guns. - No skills or perks or anything like that. - The game world is not influenced by players actions. - It's a shooter. Yes, both have a big world you can walk around in and hunt animals, but that doesn't make it an RPG. In a way, the online mode is more an RPG than the story mode, as you can choose from various bonus / perk cards that give you special abilities (higher bullet resistance, etc), but they are super expensive to level up so I didn't really bother with them yet. /edit: Another screenshot. In story mode that town was full. In online it feels so empty.

Eh.. not sure if you're serious. "Looks" make RPGs now? /Edit: To fit the thread..

Sure, but they aren't. It's the same item for every player. Oh btw, you can pay the barber with gold as well... but you don't unlock hairstyles with gold, you have to pay gold again if you want to switch to a certain other hairstyle. Then if you feel the mood to go back to the first hairstyle, you pay with gold again. Same with weapon skins. If you want a 100% golden gun for whatever reason, you pay like 30 gold bars or something, which is 10+ bucks of real money. Now if you want to change the gun back to silver, you have to pay more gold to do so. Once that is done and you see it looks like crap and want your gold-skin back, you pay with gold bars again. In a way this is genius. I think they are the first to not have items unlock with gold.. you really just buy them once. /edit: Actually I remember the Hunter having you buy ammo for real money. Also weapons and stuff were quite pricey back then. Still cheaper than RDO stuff, though.- What are you playing right now?

I didn't just play this game for 2 weeks, I no-lifed it to the max. I can't give you a "it would have been perfect if the grind would only last for 5 days to get item X"-answer, but I can tell you that fishing is something you do quite early in the story mode. I'd go as far as calling it a basic feature of the game. In online on the other hand, you have to jump through many hoops to get to this in the first place. It's also one of the first rather reasonable ways to make at least some money... knowing this, it becomes clear why it's a rank 14 item. Want to make some better money ingame? Then spend some gold for a fishing rod to get it sooner! Also my point for bringing up Star Citizen was that these pure vanity items cost more money than your generic games DLC or a vehicle addon in a simulation game. That's just nuts.- RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS
I'm never sure if Gfted1 is somewhat low-key trolling or not. How can anyone defend 15€ for a piece of clothing (buggy, by the way, the coat has polygon weight issues)? I mean, it's not like we (or I in this case) rally against micro-transactions completely.. like I've said a couple times already, if it's reasonable content, then I gladly spend money on it. Make it a set of clothes for 15€ and I'm fine with it again. Or some new playable content.. then I'm fine with it as well. Heck, people fire against Star Citizen for it's incredible pricey ships, but at least these ships have some simulation element- lots of buttons to press, various different features to play with (transportation, combat, mining, etc). You can't say that about a 15€ coat. At this point I'd argue that 15€ aren't exactly "micro"payments. It's the price of a normal games DLC that gives you 2 to 5 hours of playtime. Maybe Gfted1 is actually a R* shareholder? That could explain some things. Really wish I would be a R* shareholder as well, tbh. PS: I don't care if people spend real money on unlocking items from a higher rank. That's not the point..- What are you playing right now?

Yeah. I'm not even against microtransactions, especially if they are only visual items. Hell, I'd buy some myself, did in the past, will do it in the future. But this... it's exactly the reason why they have put the fishing rod behind rank 14 and the binoculars behind rank 20... If you just start out with the game and realize that playing for a week will barely get you to rank 10, you'll just pay for it. They put these items at unreasonable ranks so you are inclined to just swipe the credit card. This is what I find so disgusting about it.
