    Marvel's Avengers

    Yeah...I was gonna play on PC and don't give a shit about Spider-Man, but don't think I can support this type of fuckery. Not surprised Sony would end up with some exclusives, but I assumed at most it would be costumes/other various cosmetics.

    Gwent - Standalone Game

    I been playing since beta, and game is in a pretty good spot right now imo. Meta is a bit stale atm due to waiting for next xpack, but for anyone new or returning it'll be quite awhile before that is an issue. It's very F2P friendly, and there's quite a lot of cosmetics you can earn from just...

    Mafia Trilogy

    Usually not a big fan of remakes, but so many people missed out on Mafia 1, feel like it deserves a chance to show a wider audience how incredible it was.

    Kingdom Come: Deliverance

    Yeah, I just recently replayed it and didn't have any real issues on my old ass system. I consider it a flawed gem, along the lines of Bloodlines, Witcher 1, etc. The level of detail and realism in the world is top notch, it might be the most immersive RPG I've played. I think being their...

    New World

    Yeah, I think they likely made the right business decision, but as Khane said, it's a massive shift in game direction. Unless they had a ton of work already done, seems they are gonna run into the usual PVE problem, ie not enough content. Those breaches they mention just sound like random...

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    They have the Royal Edition now with all the DLC included, think it was like $30 during the holiday sales. Even on my ancient rig I was able to get it looking pretty good without totally killing performance, but being their first game is definitely not the most well optimized. It's one of the...

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    After finally playing Kingdom Come last year and loving it, I've got high hopes for Warhorse. Definitely get similar vibes to early CDPR, so I'm expecting their next game to show major improvement ala Witcher 2.

    Annual Christmas Key Giveaway - 2019

    @gshurik Could I get BATTLETECH + DLC if not already taken? Thx.

    The Witcher

    Totally agree with the above about the books. I decided to read them after really liking the first game, and thought the short stories were fantastic. They were like grimdark deconstructions on fairy tale/fantasy cliches, with some mystery and well written characters. Those were easily the...

    Witcher 3

    One thing I noticed watching streams from quite a few first time players is they try to use roll as their primary defensive movement, which makes the combat feel way more frustrating. Once you get the hang of dodge, especially sidestepping attacks, it makes the combat feel way more fluid as you...

    The Expanse

    Yeah I just finished the first book as well and was also surprised how well the show adapted the material. In quite a few ways I think they improved it, especially in regards to adding more tension/personal conflict throughout...one example being how rough things started out with the crew at...

    The Expanse

    Yeah, that meeting where she first hires Cotyar got cut for some reason, but they forgot to remove the clip from the 'previously' segment. They ended up putting it on YT at least:

    The Expanse

    Just finished it, so just off the cuff thoughts here...also have not read the books. First off, while I enjoyed it, was easily the weakest season for me, which seems consistent with quite a few opinions I'd seen about the 4th book this season was based on. I can understand there needing to be...

    The Mandalorian

    Waited to judge until I'd given it 5 episodes, just in case it rapidly picked up, but I'm finding it incredibly dull. The run time point is interesting, but the plots in each episode seem pretty thin as is, not sure if another 10 minutes would make it better or just make it worse. Comparing...

    The Expanse

    Yeah I'm almost to the end of S2 of a rewatch and the entire Eros arc is excellent. There's so many interesting things happening, with pretty much every character gets a chance to shine. After that, the shift to introducing the Martian folks just felt a bit off to me, especially in comparison...

    Witcher 3

    Comparing only main story, then it's HoS all the way for me, even though B&W is not that far behind it imo. B&W is just much larger in scope, and there's a good variety of interesting things to do. Regis and Anna are also very well written characters...even the main threat I thought was well...
  17. Kanglor

    Witcher 3

    Yeah, HoS is probably my favorite quest story line in any game I've played...it's like a perfect distillation of the Witcher setting. Just thinking about it, I had to go and listen to the main antagonist theme from the OST...oh it's so good. Saying that, it's amazing to consider that B&W is...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    Yeah Andromeda is just a ho-hum 5/10 game for me, which is sad considering how much I enjoyed the original trilogy. Combat was fun, but everything else fell flat, just didn't have a good hook to build on like the Reapers. Makes me sad cause we don't get that many single player sci-fi RPGs, and...

    Marvel's Avengers

    As someone that spent a ton of time playing Mavel Heroes despite all of it's flaws, I'm definitely interested in this. Seems to be a similar model of regularly adding new heroes, and the combat looks like it will be way more fun than traditional iso view arpg. My main concern now is with the...

    Crusader Kings 3

    Not a lot to go on atm, but was glad to hear the game director mention that they are leaning into the RPG aspects of the series. One of the screenshots on Steam shows a skill tree, so assuming that characters will have quite a bit more depth and customization.

    League Of Legends

    Unless I'm not remembering something, think that dashes the hopes of any new big budget, open world MMO for a long, long time. From the little bit they showed, looks like they decided to go the arpg route...using the actual champions instead of classes.

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Yeah for most part Eternals aren't anything special, imo. Pretty sure that Marvel wanted to get Kirby back from DC enough that they told him he would do whatever he wanted, and thus we got a less interesting retread of the New Gods. Thing is they already have another alien created superhuman...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Assuming Sersi and Black Knight are the lead characters, the introduction of the Eternals makes a lot more sense now. Unless it blows up, seems like a one and done deal just to establish those two characters going into the Avengers. If he is gonna end up as one of the main Avengers going into...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Yeah if they wanna move the Guardians stuff forward in any reasonable time they had to do it with Thor, cause Gunn is still doing casting for Suicide Squad.
  25. Kanglor

    The Mandalorian

    Oh yeah, just mean that the stuff about them in KoToR was interesting, with the Mandalorian War having just ended, etc. Also liked the theme of someone highly skilled, yet normal like Jango\Boba\etc testing themselves against those that basically won the force lottery and have super powers...

    The Mandalorian

    It certainly looks shiny, but visuals only go so far, lookin at you Discovery/GoT. Always liked the Mandalorian lore and characters, especially from KoToR era, so rooting for this to be good.

    Cyberpunk 2077

    Saw they sold out of all the stock taken to GenCon, really good to see the Talsorian guys capitalizing on the exposure of their IP. Mike seems to be having a great time with it, unlike that grouch Sapkowski.

    The Fighting Game Community Thread

    As a purely spectator of fighting games, I find pro level SFV enjoyable to watch. Only times I get turned off is when 1-2 characters start becoming way over represented, ie Cammy awhile back. Of the Top 8s I watched(SamSho/BBTag/SFV) I thought SamSho was definitely the one I liked best, just...

    The Boys

    Well count me as another that quite enjoyed it. Butcher was definitely the highlight of the Boys side of the story, with his use everyone/everything to get what he wanted. Overall tho, my MVP was far and away, Homelander, pretty much every scene he was in was good. Even though the evil...

    The Boys

    Reviews started dropping for this and seem to fall into the camps of those that enjoy realistic/deconstructionist takes on super heroes and those that find it all too 'cynical.' I quite like stories where no one is really a hero, and just shades of grey, so I'm pretty eager to check this out...
  31. Kanglor

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Yeah, I saw someone mention Michael Jai White being a better fit, which I agree with. He has the action chops and just has a more Blade look to him. So with the Multiverse definitely in now, I'm guessing that's how we are going to get Fantastic Four and X-Men? FF could be interesting, but...

    40K Eisenhorn TV Series

    Yeah, seeing all the money being thrown around by these companies looking for the next big thing to put on their streaming service, glad 40k might actually get a real shot. At least they picked the correct character/setting to start with, Eisenhorn is pretty much the best intro book series you...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    2020 is considered the current canon version, at least until Red comes out. I think the later editions kinda went off the rail from what I've heard, so they just retcon'd them from the official timeline.
  34. Kanglor

    Cyberpunk 2077

    Yeah that makes most sense, especially considering in the lore, his ex-gf created a program(Soulkiller) that could copy/emulate someones mind. The new PnP edition coming in a few months will probably give some more backstory to all that and probably setup plot teasers for things to be resolved...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    He's playing Johnny Silverhand, one of the signature NPCs from the 2020 tabletop game. He was a member of the band Samurai, so guessing he's gonna have a pretty major role in the story.
  36. Kanglor

    Cyberpunk 2077

    Yeah this is one of the rare games I can feel hyped up about without much trepidation, only issues I could see is them being too ambitious with some of the systems, ie like the hacking system they briefly showed in the demo. Tho they even mentioned in the demo it wasn't finalized and might not...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    Can't wait for E3, get to see a lot more gameplay, and would assume an actual release date. Also the tabletop game is getting an updated version called Red in August, that is going to advance the timeline from the 2020 version and setup the world where 2077 will pickup from.

    Vampire the Masquerade - Bloodlines sequel? Remake?

    I'm cool with them wanting to really emphasize the uniqueness of each clan's abilities, especially with the base game five. I am pretty interested in knowing what the 5th clan is going to be, as I think it's pretty much locked in the others are Toreador, Ventrue and Tremere. I think most ppl...

    Borderlands 3

    Yeah BL2 was some of the most fun I've ever had in gaming, especially in co-op...so damn, this might actually be the first game I'm forced to install/use the Epic store.

    Vampire the Masquerade - Bloodlines sequel? Remake?

    Pretty happy it's a sequel, really hope it turns out to be a good game. World of Darkness is such an amazing gaming IP, always been bummed it's languished unused for so long. One good thing is them having Mitsoda on the project and the folks from Hardsuit seem to be big fans of the original...
