Anthony Davis: Thanks, I appreciate it, and I'm actually fine. Please keep the QA, map developers, and vehicle team developers who got their notice in your thoughts and prayers. That synopsis is actually accurate - we always knew that we would ramp down AW to a support role while the MRG team in Moscow ramped up to live development - with the intention of shifting people over to our other projects - which we have done. For those we couldn't make room for, there was advance notice and severance. There was also a ramping down some of our QA as more and more QA responsibilities were taken on by Bytex. Regarding my feelings for AW, I love the game. I think Global Operations and Balance 2.0 are going to change the game for the better in enormous ways. This project has been an unexpected and wild ride, as well as a great opportunity for me to remember and relive some glorious memories as a tanker. WHEN or IF the final day comes on this project, I will miss it, truly. This kind of thing always sucks, even when you know it's coming, and even when the company is in a strong place, which we are. We still have ~200 employees after the layoffs, and multiple signed projects - it's just our role in AW is now a support role. No surprises, no drama. Sure there is sadness, these people are really talented and awesome to work with. For the response about why I didn't say anything sooner - One, I don't speak for Obsidian and Two, the internet is a horrible buzzfeed-clickbaity hell hole. There are organizations who are hungry for any sort of story that they can use to stoke page views and I don't want to be a part of that.

Well then...

I like him, but there are some duds. For example, the main menu tunes are very annoying. The thing is that there aren't many tracks in the game, which is a shame, really.

It was great. Yakuza 0, Yakuza Kiwami, Nioh, Persona 5, Ni No Kuni 2, Tales of Berseria and more all in 2017. it'll be a crazy (good) year.

Never happened to me.

The problem with Tyranny isn't real time with pause or that you have to micro your melee fighters. The problem is that 85% of the encounters in the game play out in the same way. I like almost everything else about the game, but the combat isn't comparable to the IE games.

Mass Effect: Andromeda looks not so good to me. I was expecting dragon Age: Inquisition in space and with guns. This trailer made it feel just like that. Animations are bad, graphics looked so-so, I cringed at the dialog. We'll see how this goes. I did complete Inquisition, but that was during a period when I wanted to play online MMOs and didn't have the time to commit. Now I have guild Wars 2 that I play when I want the MMO itch to go away.

Playing a rpgmaker game called Disgraced. Takes place in fictional feudal Japan. Not only are you fighting the evil shogun, you also need to keep track of recourse management and also make sure that your units don't go hungry/thirsty. I haven't had much trouble with that, though. Some fights I have been picking have been more or less impossible, so I'm mostly trying to find stuff that I can actually kill. I have 7 characters recruited so far, but you can only have 4 of them active at a time. I'm not sure if they should be rotated or not. I'm mostly sticking to the same party. I've spent three hours on it and it seems interesting so far, despite not having top notch writing.

I didn't buy anything either. there was nothing that I really wanted.

The one thing I can't complain about is the darkness, atleast I'm not sweating. Still wearing T-shirt and shorts to work. ^^ What?? It's freaking cold over here. I'd die with only t-shirt and shorts. I'm out a lot and walk a lot without my jacket, but it's chilly. A few days ago, we had decent weather, but today was cold and tomorrow is supposed to be colder. My dry skin doesn't make things better.

This week, I've gone straight from work to my bed, every day of the week. I'm just feeling generally tired for some reason. I also forgot to turn on the alarm so I almost overslept in the morning. I hate fall/winter. I'm still lucky, compared to some of you guys, hurting backs, burned hands and falls from bicycles.

Not DRM, eh? The reason they removed it is so that they could launch the game on GOG.com, which doesn't have any games with DRM on its service. Actually, I'll let you have this one. Denuvo isn't DRM. It's worse.

That's how it is, yes. I know Chris' reactions my seem a bit immature, but as you guys have said. No one really knows what has happened.

Inside removed Denuvo DRM from the Steam version.

I don't dislike his tone. He feels like he was ignored and didn't get much say. he didn't really do much in his last years at the company. I understand why he isn't happy. Everything Obsidian has put out lately has felt safe. I thought that with crowdfunding and all that, that they could have been working on a more daring project.

Has he done anything significant in the past years? I feel like his talent was wasted over there for many years. I would probably have felt the need to leave, too. I agree that you either tell all of the story or shut up, though. No need to be vague. Or maybe that he didn't get to have his creative freedom is all there is to it.

Reading (I read slower than most people, I think, because of my eyesight), running from a to b, playing with spell creation, organizing my inventory and kept the game running while doing other things 1-2 hours). 30-60 minutes of loading screens, probably.

Posted this almost everywhere. I might as well post it here. My end game stats for the game. http://www.rpgcodex.net/forums/index.php?attachments/upload_2016-11-20_23-30-58-png.7563/ I'm posting it as a link because the boards don't accept images from rpgcodex.

Pilars of Eternity has improved immensely with patches. Some people might think to themselves: WTF are obsidian still tinkering with the game over one year after release, but it's actually much more fun to play now. I liked Pillars of Eternity and I like it more now. Tyranny is good, but I feel like it isn't on par with Pillars, which is one of my favorite games recently, despite the fact that the writing can be long winded.

I looted a corpse in Lethian's Crossing and I could go on with the story! Crisis averted.

Hit a gamebreaking bug. In Lethian's Crossing, after doing lots of fighting, I can't exit the area to the world map. The game say I'm still in combat when I am not.

Oxenfree? I got it for free, courtesy of ShadySands but I didn't think it was anything special. I can appreciate what they were going for with their attempt on natural dialog, but it fell flat. The actual story isn't anything overly thought provoking, either.

Tyranny can be bought physically in Europe. You could import from amazon or similar sites. I've even seen some sort of special edition.

I haven't been on for a couple of days but... Fixed that for you. Because, you see, Denuvo does **** all if you buy the game. Just internet neckbeards who blame every bug/problem/mental issue on Denuvo without ever backing up why Denuvo would be the root of the problem. I hate this ****ing auto comment. I have almost 600 games on Steam, over 400 console games and I don't know how many games on GOG. Not liking Denuvo, does not make me a pirate. You want to change your GPU? That's one activation lost. Wanna change something else? There's another activation. Server's down? LOL sorry, you can't play. Want to mod your game? F*** you! This is SecureROM all over again and I am having none of it, therefore voting with my wallet.

When not playing Tyranny, I am playing Digital Devil Saga, Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth and Morrowind.
