TBH if killing NPCs is no big deal and happens all the time then why does he make youtube videos about it? Oh right, cause he's attention ...holering.

IIRC it's a matter of which side you have more points with at the end so even if you "mess up" at the gates you still have plenty of opportunities to help another group.

Yeah, most of the quests there lead to you supporting a side. Like helping a bunch of Outlaws clearly barred from the city gain entry to it. It'll make more sense once you see what the quests lead up to.

"There ain't a single developer out there that could challenge Rockstar Games talent in storytelling. The plot/characters these fellas at R* create are better than most movies I've seen in recent years." Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.... Good one mate.

Some more 2 cents on the Blizzcon fiasco if anyone's interested:

This is too similar to The Thing.

So how many of those 150 hours were spent staring at loading screens and restarting the game?

Outcast! \o/

Yeah. At first you'll be strong enough to defeat most common enemies, at least when there's just a couple of them. Then you can defeat them all. Then come the larger monsters who'll take forever to wear down, but it's doable. If you keep playing, eventually you can massacre everything and even clear out Alb bases.

I'm surprised how many of those games come from Poland. Good work over there!

I don't know where you've been looking, we know the contents and they made at least one preview video about it.

Uh, outside of open world events I soloed pretty much everything.

Now I'm imagining crucified garden gnomes.

One of the Le Guin related dev diaries explicitly says that the population overhaul is partially groundwork for future espionage systems IIRC.

Because even if you buy the game you can ignore the microtransactions, which I would imagine also sends a much clearer picture on your opinion than just not getting the game and leaving them to wonder why vs (hypothetically) 80% of buyers not touching the micros.

Got my PC in order so I'm doing Total Warhammer. Army control is a pain in the butt, at least in the first game. >.> Still, having fun so far.

Humble Bundle has a Namco Bandai sale.

Wish my pc parts would arrive already so I can play this damn game.

Tybalt may be my favourite, but the other two mentors (VIgil and Priory) weren't bad either. I think though, the runner up for me as NPC is Taimi. The progeny got attitude ...and then she had you help her coordinate some big lenses so the team could fry all the bugs in the chamber I loved Tybalt (my first character, a Thief, of course, went with the Order of Whispers ) But overall I feel Sieran is the best one out of the faction mentors as she is the perfect embodiment of her race (blunt, brash, innocent, no fear of death since no familiarity with the concept due to very few (only one?) Sylvari ever having died up to that point etc.). I feel that despite the Sylvari being described as such the game does a very bad job of communicating it, especially when not a Sylvari yourself or avoiding The Grove and missing out on the, sometimes hilarious, ambient conversations. In any case all of them are a bit underplayed, alas. The newer "companions" are imho hit and miss, the problem I see is that once the writers figure out a trait about a companion is liked and they then go full caricature on them (eg. Canach and Rytlock, but Taimi got some of that going as well). Oh, and they botched Braham to an extent I don't think the damage is fixable, at least for me (I hear they're trying though, but I have to play through the last two LS episodes still so can't comment on that yet) EDIT: I think at that point two Sylvari had died, though both went "missing" (and are/can be found by the player depending on your choices) so their fate was unknown to the rest of the race. Two named Sylvari maybe, there's plenty that died in all the fights.Braham is yeeeaaaah I don't know what they were trying to achieve but it was wasted effort.

She has even better lines later.

https://gearnuke.com/the-witcher-author-demand-payment-cdpr-groundless/ Sapkowski wants more money for the game rights. According to a polish guy on another forum their laws do give the option of someone retroactively demanding money if the ip holder underestimates the effective value of the end result but isn't sure if/how that exactly applies. I think Sapkowski is still salty that someone else made his baby popular, on top of being greedy.

^Have you met Tybalt, greatest Apple salesman of all?

^Huh, that actually sounds pretty interesting.

Humble Bundle has a female protagonist sale, offering Bayonetta for 69% off and Alien Isolation for 77%. 4 days after I got the latter for a friend's birthday. >.> Screw you sleeping emote!

^Maybe she should stream news on Twitch or wherever, I haven't heard of anyone doing that.
