Too many annoying QTEs otherwise not terrible. If a wolf bites you you will have to to a kind of threading a needle QTE on the game pad or die. If you don't have a gamepad it doesn't tell you what button to mash so you just die. This makes the wolves on the fist map easily the most terrifying encounter in the entire game. A bit short and if I remember one thing I liked about the original games I supposed it was the puzzles and the jump puzzles that didn't hold your hand. In the reboot a 'tomb' is usually a tiny room with a puzzle, none of which are hard but at least one is just impossible to time right.

So there should be more games I will never play because I'm an adult and have no use for a console.

You don't need troops to put down an uprising, you just let the Police take care of them. You use the troops to put their backers back to the stone age so it doesn't happen again and to set an example for other countries. And these backers are four scandinavian countries ?.

****.

So in response to a popular uprising Putin responds by invading four countries, and I reading the premise rigth. U sure this isn't The Onion ?. Wouldn't those troops be better deployed, you know, putting down the uprising.

Congrats.

When are the 14 mn chips from Nvidia showing up. That's a pretty big deal, long time since we had a die shift in GFX.

It's just a bloody flag. It's not the problem. I mean it's nice that you can all come together to get rid of that thing after all that time... I mean to say it's nice that retail stores who stand to lose next to nothing can come together and get a bit of exposure.

I need a rotate/ scroll powers button and a fire power button, they need to be seperate. The quick bar is not good enough so you need to use it in conjunction with the inventory, which kinda makes it pointless. I need to have autoswitch bombs so I don't have to go into the inventory after having tossed two measly bombs, breaking my immersion. Eating chicken dumplings while combat rolling is unneccesary not to mention bad for digestion and it takes up buttons that could be used for those missing functions. Pretty simple things really.

What if I hate myself and commit suicide.

For approximately double the money you can get night vision goggles. Just sayin'

Not crazy about a whole set of skill tree prerequisites for perks. I like it better when it is mostly (because there certainly were prerequisites in FO3) a matter of picking a flavour you like on level up. With a skill tree you are locked out of most of the top tier except the one you are at. If top tier perks also involve new or interesting mechanics, you are locked out of lets say 3/4 of the full gameplay experience. Lots of RPG type games have left me with this sense that it would be more fun to throw the rules out the window and balance the difficulty another way.

Sounds awesome but It's Ubisoft, they will **** it up somehow. Sorry I was thinking of The Division.

You don't have to like Assange. Matter of fact he's completely imaterial to the need of a way to disseminate information anonimously. You can't trust the news organisations they can and do make concessions when threatened by governments. As for the release of information being dangerous in itself. That is a possible outcome, but the benifits outweigh the costs on the whole.

Hi

I suppose the thinking is that with the old rules of engagement people were getting away with rape. And of course now people are getting away with false rape allegations. Not really an improvement. Well, if you are a woman and don't care about objective standards in the legal system it probably does protect you from rape better than before, seeing as how you have the systemic advantage now and men you engage with are constantly going to be some degre of paranoid about your 'unstated level of consent'.

Does Homeworld have functional multiplayer yet.

Well, maybe. I don't know if a simple monster nest deserves its own marker, or every campfire with a few bandits. There is actually plenty to do without grind and the Ubisofty map icons. Ubisofty in the sense that one icon always means the same gameplay and that it gets boring and repetitive fast. I remember finding a cave that turned out to be a huge complex and part of a contract I hadn't taken, now that's worth putting on the map.

The map markers are lame though. Completely take away the 'I want to see what's over the next hill' effect. You can turn em off, but who's gonna do that when they have the option.

I just started that very thing. The FO4 trailer inspired me to play them all again. I just started a new FO1 game for the first time in 6-7 years last night! I did Fallout 3 recently but oh god the crashes...dunno if I can go back to that game unless the maker of New Vegas Anti Crash decides to give it full support. Looking forward to another blast on New Vegas one day though, I'm currently playing Oblivion, Far Cry 3 and possibly the Bioshock Infinite DLC. Played half way through FO3 recently and had to give up. I didn't get any of those random memory leak crashes, but incredibly there are still hard crashes in certain parts. There is one right at the beginning and one in Operation anchorage DLC. They have always been there on all the hardware I've had since FO3 came out. You can get lucky and do a complete playthrough without but it's rare.

I think it comes down to not being able to trust the government to do the right thing. It would have been a victory for democratic institutions if it had been able to and Snowden kinda blindsided Obama with the leaks but when it comes down to it I don't think the government's track record make it very deserving of special consideration or of being able to work this out internally.

I kinda got the sense that she just postponed doing it, like it didn't have to be 'right now'.

Felt contrived anyway. You have 'won' the game and then it presents you with a false dilemma just so it can show off that it has been paying enough attention to your choices to shoehorn you into one of three categories. Deus Ex HR - ending stuff going on here IMHO.

Never noticed that. I'll be up for another playthrough once all the dlc are out.
