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.

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?).

not if I don't rely on their opinions

no, I watch youtube videos of people playing the game without commentary

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.

not to say that RPG Maker is bad, of course. but it's pretty limited, at least used to be

looks like something made in RPG Maker

wasn't Fallout 4 released before Fortnite? I was always under the impression they took their cue from games like Rust and The Forest (which aped Origins and Epoch, which aped Minecraft), as did Epic with Fortnite

while I didn't like TW3 and forced myself to finish it just to see Ciri's ending, her chapters were easily my favorite parts of the game, and she's definitely the best character this crappy series has to offer IMO

HBS is hare-brained schemes (Shadowrun/Battletech devs)

Bethesda isn't actually making those good games, but it does make ES and FO games, which get worse and worse with each numbered release

voice acting and writing are atrocious in these

I don't know if destroying livelihoods can be considered a sound business strategy, even though it brings in money for the shareholders

wait, PoE had 6 characters in the party?! I completely forgot. man, do I hate that PoE 2 only has 5

oh, would've never occurred to me to look under PoE, not PoE 2. then go to "MORE" to find serial keys there
