Yeah, though a lot of people have already discovered that BG&E 2 is not the sequel they wanted or expected. From the looks of it, the game seems to be a MMO hybrid similar to Destiny or The Division. Still, I am curious to see what Michel Ancel is trying to pull off here, he always manages to make great games. I also wish to see more of 'Wild' at this e3, another game Ancel seems to be working on. That game had a very promising trailer and a gameplay footage but I haven't heard anything from the game ever since. I hope it doesn't get canned.

Played some more KotOR and made my way to the lower parts of the city while being diguised as a sith trooper. It is a very rewarding experience if you miss early/mid 2000's rpg. KotOR is among the famous games that I never got to play earlier. Games you probably wouldn't believe I haven't played yet: Baldur's Gate 1&2 Icewind Dale 1&2 Fallout: Tactics Jade Empire Neverwinter Nights 1&2 Diablo 1&2 Dungeon Keeper 1&2 Jagged Alliance 1&2 ... Oh...the shame!

It better, one more 'once it is done' from CDPR and I'll put it next to Star Citizen and BG&E 2.

A whole lot of MMO games and even rpgs go for the doormat thing because you can't have an entire server playing as Geralt of Rivia or Commander Shephard. Even older rpgs use a blank/mute character with little to no text because most of the times, your actions will determine the outcome of an event or a quest. Dialogue trees and voice acting are nice things to have in a rpg, but a MMO... Also, as far as I know, TSW always aimed for a story driven MMO and it pretty much achieves that since most quests turned out to be a little more than a simple fetch quest. A lot of quests involved puzzle solving to the point where the game offers you its own mini browser so you can check the internet for clues. I just wish the gameplay was a bit more action oriented.

The only MMO I ever played was The Secret World. It was a 'buy once, play forever' back then, nowadays it is free to play. Great story and setting, full of great ideas, interesting quests to do alone or with a friend but the major downside: bad controls and gameplay. Fighting is simply not fun. I'd recommend it though, it has a beautiful world to get lost in and it's free!

The guys who were responsible for the Borderlands series have already left Gearbox so I am really curious how Borderlands 3 is gonna shape up. I wouldn't mind another Duke Nukem game, I didn't hate Duke Nukem Forever as much as people did. The shooting wasn't all that good but the atmosphere was spot on.

I pre-ordered the original RDR on the ps3 and it came with a golden gun and a gold pistol that would give you a reputation boost. I think I still have them. But honestly, I don't want RDR2, I just want a copy of RDR for the Xbox. I like Sony and all that jazz but when it is 4K on Xbox One X vs 640p@25fps on the PS3... I gotta find a copy of RDR for the ecksbucks.

Shameless? They implemented the option for 1080p60fps/4K 30fps on the PS4 Pro better than any developer out there. I wish other devs would actually take notes. Keeeping an eye out for The Surge: Complete Edition.

KotOR in 4K These guys must have predicted the rise of the alt-right back then

Finished conquering Kamurocho in Yakuza 0 as Kiriyu, now it's time to beat every club in Sotenbori as Majima. Still a lot to do in Yakuza 0, but this game is as of now in my top 5 together with Fallout 2, Planescape: Torment, Arcanum and Vampire Bloodlines. It simply is one of the best games ever made and worth owning a PS4 for.

...or maybe it's Hitman 2: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2018-06-05-hitman-2-logo-pops-up-warner-bros-website

1.Planescape: Torment 2.Fallout 1/2 3.Arcanum

Either that or they instantly remember a childhood horror: Superman 64!

Funny how Javad Zarif has a YouTube channel, yet his own people are prohibited from using YouTube. How can I get your godsent messages when I can't even watch a 5 minute video on YouTube? Our government is rotten to the core. But hey, it's not our government anymore, it's China's backyard.

Man, that game had so many side-quests it almost made me feel sick! The ending had to be the worst part of the game though. I feel like going back to that game aomeday, I never got to play any of the dlcs. Don't worry, you'll be fine. Save for a few points that can be either skipped or cheesed with traps KOTOR is a fairly easy game. Click on this once you left Taris and reached the next destination, it's just a tip and only a spoiler until you did so: Thanks, bro. I'll bookmark that.

Let us hope Rocksteady is behind it. @SonicMage your wish might actually come true.

I always liked the Borderlands series. The shooting, the gore, the loot and the jokes always kept me going on. I am not a big fan of Gearbox though, don't like how they treated the recent Duke Nukem and Bulletstorm remasters.

The gameplay seems to hold up pretty well.

It's a f2p third-person action rpg. It can be played solo or co-op. It's fun as hell for killing some time and you really don't need to spend a dime on it. It was developed by Digital Extremes, the same people who made Dark Sector and The Darkness II. Yeah. I think I'll take the safe route since it's my first playthrough.

Stick to swords, don't spend points on Wisdom until you are sure about your 'second class', got it.

I have an AMD 7770 gpu so maybe there are some compatibility issues. Played some more KotOR, persuading people ain't that easy. I've already spent 3 points on persuasion but I couldn't persuade the doctor to tell me more about the escape pods. Also, is it wise to spend points on Wisdom if you are playing as a scout? I am not sure whether I should use blasters or swords either. Can I/should I invest in both of them or do I have to choose? I figured a 'scout' probably deals with guns and ranged weapons the most but there is also close quarter combat... I am playing a real rpg after quite a while, I am scared! :s

Hahaha, I am not that far in the game yet.

KotOR. Man, the writing in this game is so fine. For instance, take the opening sequence after your pod crashes: Carth explains everything you need to know about your current situation in the shortest amount of time. The dialogue isn't complicated by any means, but it is fully understandable and coherent. This is something I miss in todays games. On the other hand you have a game like PoE: you kill a dragon, steal her 'spark' for some would be adventurer in defiance bay, durance suddenly engages in a overly complicated rant about the dragon, her spark and the god hammer(which is complicated enough on its own) only to tell you that 'he doesn't feel like talking about it' and ending the conversation. Spent some 50 hours playing PoE but I don't think I'll ever finish my current playthrough. I guess I'll just jump straight to PoE II once it's out on the PS4. People kept comparing it to Arcanum so it is worth giving a shot for that reason alone. Though I still don't know what to make out of 'HUNT A GOD!!!!'

I tried that among many other solutions but the game just crashes to the desktop...either that or the mouse doesn't respond properly. I never bothered checking out the GOG version.
