Well, I am very certain we can find things to hate about DX3. Like, I dunno, Adams beard or such.

Or the main protagonist looking like a complete douche.

The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.

There's also his voice.

Or the piss yellow color scheme.

I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*

For the quirky interest, a small bit about how the box art was developed...

It's gold!

Actually scratch what they said on the panel, the original design decision behind the color scheme was because on their way to emulate a neo-renaissance they ended up with a baroque.(Note the clothing texture designs with the intricate, organic, curvilinear, decorations) For the scheme they went with a tenebrism's style (Caravaggio) with a high contrast of dark and light.

All this from the art director's mouth, IIRC.

I thought was pretty cool! :)

I'm not sure I'd have said cool.. but it was a little interesting to see how the process went and how the art got developed..

I just realized, that DX3 release is next week on friday. If I'll get my copy until then, that means I can have the whole weekend some fun, fun, fun with it.

I preordered it over the weekend.

 

If it makes me nauseous.....I'll shake my fist at the sky.

 

The colour scheme ? Or just some FPS induced nausea ?

The latter. The older I get it seems the more susceptible I am to it. Top down is fine (WoW, DS3) and FO:NV was thiiiis close to being ok (if only you could zoom out like 5 more feet) but first person only (Borderlands, TF2) and about an hour in Ill have a pounding headache and a queasy feeling in my stomach.

Maybe play stealthy, less movement hiding behind coveniently placed boxes and machinery, that might help, well if you're going to be playing a while. If it was the colour scheme - well, could always watch a LP and gauge that.

 

Would be a good way to start a rage post though - "This game made me physically ill!!....."

Happens to me as well, although it's very rare. It seems to be related to the speed with which the screen is panning and how much of the POW is panning at the same time. Quick is fine, sluggish, and if the whole POW is doing it at the same time. That's like hitting the brown note.

Why would you get FPS nausea?

I recall that playing the Alien in AvP could induce motion sickness in some people but really was a specific thing, with all the perspective shifts that the alien was susceptible to.

И погибе Српски кнез Лазаре,
И његова сва изгибе војска, 
Седамдесет и седам иљада;
Све је свето и честито било
И миломе Богу приступачно.

Do either of you suffer from motion sickness, in general? Just wondering if there's a connection.

From memory, they test this on prospective pilots and say 10% of the population are more susceptible than others and never pass first selection.

The last time I was playing an FPS on a computer screen (as opposed to a TV screen at a 10' distance), I remember getting some motion sickness too. Suspect Gorgon is on the money, cept that the POV is related to your, the gamer's FOV and not so much what goes on in the game... :/
