Hurlshort Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 In Risen, make sure you aren't going too far off the beaten path early on. It takes awhile before you are ready to handle much in the way of a fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 So I'm on a 20 match losing streak on Starcraft 2, no matter which race I play. And I'm in the bronze league. Anybody feel like lending a hand? "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"

Malcador Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Nah, you just win a regular Civ game, then you start up a game of Gal Civ. Alpha Centauri. They need to make a sequel to that Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bos_hybrid Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 I'm thinking of buying Dead Rising 2 for PC. Did anyone here play it (except Bukkake, obviously)? Apparently it's performance on PC is pretty bad, I'm also hesitant to get it because I don't want to carry a 10yr old girl through the game.

mkreku Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Ah, it's the Unreal engine. Actually, it's an in-house developed engine that I don't think has an official name. Unless I've missed something vital. But the reasoning is still sound: every developer has to decide if they want to support anti aliasing nonetheless.

LadyCrimson Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 (edited) In Risen, make sure you aren't going too far off the beaten path early on. Believe me, I'm not. I left the gal at the house, met the dude in the other house, followed him to the swamps, and am now pretty stuck. The enemies in that tutorial area were easier but in swamps/that farm area, bah. I have barely any gold, wielding the 15dmg sword from the house & am still in my bare feet. I can (sometimes) kill a single bird or porcupine but they almost always come in 3's. Luring one at a time hasn't worked yet. Single wolves, boars, & moths pretty much kill me. I even finally put the game on Easy...helped a tiny bit but not much. I suck.

Watched a few basic zerg strategies, but the guy is just insanely fast and there's a ton of stuff to manage which is what I try to avoid. I played with a friend who's actually decent to see what was wrong. Turns out I build units but don't do anything with them for a while. "Alright, I've been thinking.

No thank you, already played through the campaign twice and I never want to play a terran match ever again. Ironically the only recent win I've had is when I switched to protoss accidently. Playing terran or protoss is like building a birdhouse with a decent hammer. Playing zerg is building a birdhouse with your hands while your apartment is on fire and you have to constantly stop to drop water on it.

No way - that's where all the fun is, going off the beaten path as early as you can manage. It's a good decision to go to the bandit camp first, though. Stick it out and do all the quests there - most of them in fact don't need any fighting, or ones that are easy enough - and in many areas you can run and get some help. You should be able to get a significant amount of money, XP and equipment by doing the various favours to bandits & gaining their trust. Then you can hit the surrounding areas a bit, and the town.

Hurlshort Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 In Risen, I went to the town first and leveled up there quite a bit. In fact I probably missed out on all the swamp quests because now I am an Order lackey, but I don't really like murky bogs anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkreku Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Playing Deathspank, it's actually not very fun(the humor). I've laughed on rare occasions. Yeah, I played the demo and although I kind of liked the simplicity of the game mechanics and the graphics, the humour felt so old and tired that it was off-putting. Still thinking of getting it now that it's getting a PC release.. Should be cheaper than Xbox Live. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!
