  1. I dislike level dependent loot generalted by random tables in general. If loot has level restrictions I don't want more than three tiers or thereabouts. A good sign is if you can find an item early on that you like and wind up using for most of the game. Really developers should place most loot and only randomly generate the inconsequential stuff. So often loot drops make you feel like one of the sad old ladies playing the one armed bandits at the casino. They win just often enough to keep them playing, but the sensation is never enough to keep them away for very long. A lot of science went into feeding them just the right gameplay loop to condition their dopamine receptors to listen for the reward sound, that *ping* of a purple or gold drop, insert three oranges or whatever pays out on a slot machine. Even if you win big, you are still conditioned to keep going, that's how the house wins every time. In an MMO they make your purple drop level dependent and switly lose its value as you earn more XP. This was mostly my experience of Skyrim and Witcher 3 as well, but at least in those games you could get better gear by crafting or hunting down wicher gear and more or less escape from the grind.
  2. Is there a followup. I want to know if he had a stroke or if he lost a bet.
  3. So they can collect from the microtransactions again I presume.
  4. Is it accessible from the main game or do you have to start over like the should have been a preorder bundle mission thing
  5. Well for mankind divided they were busy making the game when a few months before launch the execs came over and basically said 'drop what you are doing and implement microtransactions'. That's probably an exaggeration, I don't believe this ending was as originally intended though. Maybe it was going to be chapter based like Hitman and they concluded that that model was not turning out to be a success.
  6. Got the Doom reboot because a couple of people said it plays old school, like before the age of cover based health regeneration. Downloading nearly 55 gigs. What the hell.
  7. I kinda wanna play Bloodborne, not like I'm getting a console just for that though. Other than that... wait two months for dishonoured I suppose.
  8. Sooo. hows using that 64gb. Does it feel any different, what applications are showing an impact ?. I'm asking because 64 gb kits got really cheap all of a sudden.
  9. Fear 2 is on sale for 3,75. Does anyone remember which FEAR game is the good one
  10. Can you get BoD on GOG or something. Does it work with a modern controller.
  11. Be sure to make room for the chicken retrirement home. j/k we have rabbits in our yards, couldn't eat those. It would have to be rabbits who hadn't snuggled up against my leg.
  12. Gorgon replied to obyknven's topic in Way Off-Topic
    I imagine it's like the Tour De France. The winner is the guy who wasn't caught cheating. It's too tempting, no one can make a career out of placements. You need records and medals
  13. Well it's fine obviously as long as it doesn't lead to the game becoming 'every MMO' not that I think it will, but multiplayer design is a different animal.
  14. 'Adventure with up to 4 friends'. This signals MMO design choices for me. Can't actually remember if this was in the first reboot game, if it was then I guess it's not so pronounced, which is a good thing for me at least.
  15. I thought the fight was easy. Getting into the vents, one level up to the terminal. Befriend the turrets for a little distraction. Shoot down the flying robots with AP ammo. Then on top where the terminal is, is another vent- you can use it to quickly move "inside" and "outside" of the big hall, therefore making it so he can't reach you. Whenever he is confused and can't find you, shoot him with grenade launcher or AP ammo. Got him down in 5 minutes or something. Try fifteen seconds. Cloak, stun-gun, takedown. All the robits and turrets promptly blow up once he goes down. Shotgun on auto fully upgraded 4 or 5 clips, less than 30 seconds. The stun effect of the shotgun kept him down.
  16. No one place in particular. BBC and the Danish equivalent are regulars i guess. It's free and I'm a cheap bastard. Yes you do get what you pay for I don't deny it.
  17. Microsoft might actually be plotting something like that.
  18. No you get XP bonuses for using passwords. Anyway start a new game plus the second go, you won't have to grind.
  19. I suppose it does fit with monotheism displacing everything else come to think of it.
  20. Their gods also Greek in origin though. There is a whole episode about the 'arrow of Apollo', and a Pantheon, the seven or the nine was it ? somethig like that. There is a connection to Moses leading his people to safety as well of course. Anyway trying to spoil BSG would be like trying to spoil Lost, you could do it and people still wouldn't understand what you were talking about. The double length specials are good though.
  21. Should I get Mordheim for 15 euro ?
  22. I had 200 rounds of shotgun ammo I had been hoarding for the entire game. Turns out shotguns have a chance to stun, he went down eventually. I don't think he died from all that. Jensen said something like 'that will keep him down for a while'. Maybe just a bad action movie pun, or they intend to have him in the DLCs. Maybe the shotgun stun counted as non lethal since he had on the polygonal armor the whole time.
