    Caved and got Conan Exiles, encouraged by the pics in this thread Still quite a ways to go, but I'm optimistic First sandstorm went well.

    apparently, from one of Sven's interviews. but I can't find the source, so it could be fake. I saw several people quote it, assumed it was real, but couldn't be bothered to read all of the interviews to check for the source

    ugh... hard pass

    the only way BG 3 would work for me is if it retconned Throne of Bhaal and at the same time was bigger in scope than BG 2. alternatively, it would be the Black Hound but as big as BG 2. everything else would be BG 3 in name only!

    I don't know, maybe I'm not getting something, but my understanding is: Epic is covering those 10 bucks off of every purchase. because the games I bought all have two listed prices: developer's price and Epic's price below, where it says Epic gives you 10 USD back for every purchase over 14.99. so the game's actual price stays the same, but Epic just refunds you for a part of it. unless you guys have info on Epic doing it at the devs' expense, I don't see what the whole "Epic is bad" is about

    the only reason is the focus on multiplayer

    SkillUp is so obnoxious. Terrible reviewer, even worse writer. Can't watch anything with him talking.

    looks like a prettier version of Darkwind

    this is one of those instances where I'll happily buy a game on Steam during a sale, just so that Steam gets the cut that would go to the owner(s) of the dev company otherwise

    BG looks worse than I remember it to... Must have not played it in a while, rose tinted glasses and all that.

    BlOps 3 has its moments

    my friend is currently playing Kenshi and loving it. his favorite game is Arcanum, though, so that's one of the reasons he likes Kenshi so much, but overall, he says, it's everything he ever wanted from an RPG. the only downside is, the game has lots and lots of bugs.

    tried some Anthem overall, game seems fun, not sure it's worth the price they're asking, though

    I liked both. really nice little games.

    how is being bigger better? objectively. personally, I can't finish Deadfire, because it's so huge (hell, can't even finish Tyranny). even bigger than that? no thanks. I like my games short and focused (personal preference, of course) and then there are the Steam reviews of kingmaker, they say the game is utterly broken and unplayable. so... your point?

    reminds me of EYE: DC, and not in a good way also, the character's name is V, which reminds me of this post: https://twitter.com/jesawyer/status/1034098826536054784

    tried the same thing with 5 ciphers, didn't go well

    Looks like Dragon Age

    I imagined something totally different to a simple asset flip

    welp, I don't think raw gameplay and reviews can be compared in this context, so let's just put a lid on it.
  22. sorophx
    I don't think we're on the same page. I don't consider reviews "content". user reviews are completely useless, because those users have no rapport with me. "professional" reviews are various degrees of terrible terrible, because gaming journalism is still in its infancy compared to, for example, film criticism (was there ever an English-speaking writer of Ebert's caliber among game journos?).
  23. sorophx
    not if I don't rely on their opinions
  24. sorophx
    no, I watch youtube videos of people playing the game without commentary
  25. sorophx
    I don't read reviews. Game journalism died in 2002 as far as I'm concerned. If you mean user reviews, then I don't even consider those worth existing.
