I thought about buying Diablo 4, but I'm holding off for now. There are too many reports of authentication issues, license issues, long and/or infinite queue times, and so forth. I think it needs to cook for another couple of months before I drop in. Also, I'm having fun occupying my spare...

Feeling nostalgic, so I'm contemplating re-playing Baldur's Gate II, assuming I can get it running. I'm curious. Do you remember which companions you ended the game with? I loved Keldorn, but dismissed him to be with his family. Imoen is my sister, so she was in the party. Minsc/Boo were...

Based on events of a couple of years ago, I get an uneasy feeling any time the CDPR marketing team is involved in something. That being said, no, this doesn't feel like a normal game expansion. I didn't really expect it to, since this is both the initial expansion and the grand finale for the...

My head canon for the game is pretty simple. I've tried to play through as each type of character, but I can't tolerate the idea of either Street Kid or (worse), Corpo rat, so I gave up and just always go Nomad. So, my character is always an ex black-ops specialist who left for unspecified...

I don't disagree with your conclusions. My point was more about not wanting to incur the wrath of regulators, who need things that they can bluster against, to maintain the appearance of doing something productive. Hyper-realistic shooters seem like low hanging fruit for that. 1685498828 And...

I think the potential issue with lifelike graphics is the type of game. In this one, the character is running around in a realistic looking environment, shooting realistic looking other people in the head. Or at least trying to. We watch first person perspective movies in which the viewer is...

The DLC has been in development long enough now that I've become somewhat optimistic about changes that it might bring. I think (meaning that I hope) that CDPR is planning on ending the game with a flourish, reworking some of the mechanics that we've been complaining about since release (e.g...

I think so. If Xbox has the same deal as Playstation, it's a combination of the last three FC games, all for less than $30 USD. You can pick up just FC 6 for a bit less. The bad reviews for FC6 seem to be mostly about two things. The developers changed the game model quite a bit for FC6. In...

I'm on vacation, so I picked up Far Cry 6 at a big discount Friday on Playstation. Installed it, played for an hour, and had to stop because something about the graphics gave me nausea and a bad headache. I deleted the game, and in doing so, realized that I had accidentally installed the PS4...

Probably as soon as it's available for PC. As far as I know, however, a sequel is still a long way off. Multiple years at least.

I'll definitely buy it. Probably not on release, since my game is too heavily modded. But once mods are updated (which might require some pretty significant changes), I'll buy it. 1683613903 Don't stress out about it. I more than offset your bargain with 4 full price copies.

The last-gen console version came out today. That's why we finally got a big patch. I also didn't experience most of the problems listed in the changelog, so I consider myself fortunate. I'm hoping for some real content updates in the months to come. At any rate, the update isn't why I'm...

I thought it was a really good game. Originally the kingdom management part was so frustrating that a lot of us just modded everything in it to be instantly completed with the best outcome. The developer realized that, and altered a lot of the worst of kingdom management, and also implemented...

At one point in time, there was a mod to make your character look like Yen. Not sure if it's still up, or if it got ported over to the newer editions of the game.

I killed probably a couple of dozen trying to get an apex, until I finally read a forum comment that they don't spawn until after Theta. An air assault would have been awesome. Definitely better than the hint to climb up the leg, with me screaming at a screenful of legs, "which leg?!!".
