There have been worse, imo.

Tanoa, the terrain of the next ArmA3 addon is available on the dev-branch since yesterday. As far as I can tell so far, it's basically their most pretty creation to date. Also at least without any AI on the map I belong to the 60fps master race, wherever I look and go. Some dude made a truckton of screenshots. http://imgur.com/a/pwxaz /Edit: Tried some of my custom missions on Altis, where I always had a few performance drops, and even there I belong to 60fps master race now. Their performance optimization efforts are really showing.

Got myself the Ursine / bear school set now. It's like the most pretty armor I've found so far. Kinda sucks for it is a heavy armor, as I usually don't wear them heavy stuff... but because of the way it looks, I totally have to. Now I can't spam signs anymore, though. :€

Indeed, Risen 2 already had guns instead of bows. Totally forgot about that one.

Oh yeah, we've got plenty of fantasy RPGs which try to mix things up in their world-building. I mean, it would be a shame if majority of them was 'your generic fantasy 101' or something, right? :-P It highly depends on what they do with it of course, but while this idea is not anything original or innovative at all, there's a lot you can do with it - and I'm still waiting for a game to use such a mix to its full potential. It just screams generic Elder Scrolls with a sprinkling of generic sci fi, but maybe it'll be good(for you). It probably plays like Risen 2 / 3 where bows and crossbows are replaced with guns. To be honest, I don't feel much motivation to try the game. Didn't even touched Risen 3 yet... Kind of a shame. The Gothic games were awesome and even Risen 1 was p.cool in comparison, but all in all it just went downhill.

I play Witcher 3 on everything maximum for hours. If I sit next to my computer after that (I play with gamepad on the couch), I am getting some hot feet, though. Kind of a bad timing to play the game in our current weather situation (up to 30°C outside), but 'I just can't stop. /Edit: I still find some thinks in the game weird as hell. Like for example, why do I change the item description text size in the inventory and not in the game options, as is usually done? Are some people constantly changing that?? Also, why can I still not increase the subtitle text size? On PC it is all fine and stuff, but on the TV occasionally I've got some real problems with my eyes.

I'll start with the first DLC as soon as I've hit the required level. Shouldn't take that much time anymore. Heard only good about the two DLCs so far.

Finally made it to Skellige. The game is still kinda crushing me with its size, but the way the quests are setup is exactly how I think it should be. The game doesn't force me to randomly wander the lands, I find quests on my way to other quest locations, which then send me to yet another quest location, etc. Always hated the Bethesda approach with a few quests in every corner of the world and the rest is up to you randomly falling into generic copy&paste dungeons.

Witcher 3 also suffers from "dialogue option says one thing, Geralt says something else"-disease, as I've found out now. The interface was like "there is a third option... I could kill you" and Geralt was like "there is a third option... I will kill you", which resulted in instant combat. Might not be an expert, but for me there was a difference in tone between the dialogue option and what has been said. So I had to reload, which was annoying, as the loading times are still too long for my taste (It's also why I play in story-only mode.... I like the harder combat, but I hate the loading times if I fail, which happened quite often actually).

I hate Gwent and I wish I could exterminate all the Gwent dialogue options. :>

Continued with my savegame as well. Made it to lvl 15 now and everything wants to lead me to Skellige, but I am not really feeling the mood to go there. After all it seems I have still a truckton of stuff to do on the mainland.

I really can't stand Supernatural anymore. Ever since the final of season 5 it just went downhill with only a few good episode somewhere in between. Started watching season 11 now just-because and again, everything seems to be repeating. It's getting tiresome.

Back in the days, Rome 1 got me into italian and greek history. Also developed a bigger interest in ancient egypt. Games certainly can light the fire.

They really should have called this game Total Warhammer.

I still believe mother of dragons will fk sht up again. I have no faith in her anymore and seeing her bewbs again won't change it no more either.

What I really hated before was the menu switching with gamepad. Browsing the items and doing anything skillpoint allocation-related stuff was simply a pain in the arse. Did something change in this area as well? It is weird, because all the ingame stuff felt like made for gamepad, but the menu totally not.

What do you do with them?

Drugs are bad hm'kay.

I have mixed feelings. I see what they are trying to show, but all I also see is people with artifical limbs- and shouldn't that be a good thing or something? After all, they don't show *why* the people have these limbs. So they might as well be victims of bombings or whatever... you get the point. The trailer is failing in delivering "the why", imo.

Graphics are nice, but gameplay is probably exactly the same as in other titles of this genre.

Welcome to Firmsoft. As great as they are at atmosphere and gameplay, they've always sucked at narrative payoff in their games.Thing is, I don't know if I have seen every area or not. At least it feels like I've skipped a chunk or two. But I feel too tired to re-check every map again. Also I noticed that some of the questlines are unfinished and I am not sure if they would pick up again if I go back to location x or if I broke them with doing certain other events in the wrong order... Hated this already in the other games. Generally I think this game is awesome, yet I still think it is the easiest title so far. It's like I've been able to rush through everything. Right now I am merely lvl 93 while in DS2 I've been 150 at this point... Heh. And I skilled my character like arse. /edit: And now I am unsure if I should do a newgame+ or wait for dlcs. Hmmm...

I am not an expert, but working for free and expecting to be paid later is pretty dumb, no?

A bloodlines 2 should be like Deus Ex but with vampires, imo. That's somehow the way I connected the old game back in the days as well.

Are the results always like that or does it require a few tries to get something good out of it?

I probably watch it and lol about it. Also just checked the trailer again and lol @ the bad music again. What is it with trailers and their bad music recently?
