The argument isn't that it can't grow into something like the other Paradox games, the argument is that unlike the other Paradox games, it doesn't stand on its own feet [firmly] at launch.

I agree in a different light. Game feels hollow and without soul due to the lack of narrative (which is the point) because of everyone being a list of randomized bullet points. Even with the tech-advantage start there's a distinct lack of setting/purpose (for me) with no established empires of...

That's the point of her character in OW/HotS. Time manipulation to avoid needing health. In HotS she is an anti-assassin (from the games I've been in that she's won). Running down Nova/Zeratul especially, but really anyone that tries to pick her/ally off or any assassin post pick-off. I've...

One is a table-top -> video game conversion the other is a hail mary prayer to save two franchise that are in desperate need of new ownership. GW being fail isn't anything new, but talking about these two competing for market share is silly.

No offense meant, but you're not doing anything positive to break this out of the >95% indie games are for gaming-hipsters stereotype for me.

I want to buy this game for the sake of 40k naval combat, but the preorder gimmicks and oddly narrow breadth of the game are nagging at me not to.

Assumed as much considering the time it takes to compile those videos, but doesn't answer the question. Did anyone actually run into it?

Why would an alien force consisting of several slave races/experiments centralize all its primarchs on Earth?

You say that now, but for all it's flaws the SC2 battle engine is well-tuned and overly polished (in terms of unit control and management) - something you will (historically) never say about a Total War battle engine. I'm not sure how troop/leader upgrades are going to be finalized in this...

Anyone see the Call/Image Call bug in game before? I've only ever seen the morph/life stealer shenanigans.

Like Pyros said: campaign map is turn based civ/research/diplomacy management, tactical battles are real time but can be auto-resolved based on leader/army values at a penalty. If you want a taste see if theM2:TW demostill works: Not much is going to be different besides graphics/engine.

What micro ability do you feel you've lost between 3 and 4?

Games that make me hate Dota2... Supports that don't support, mid that fails and talks trash - leaves nothing to do but practice efficient split pushing/afk.

I never understood why you neg people in FSR. Unless it's a post without a picture or talking about negs, it's incomprehensible to me. Here's another few for you pussy-lovers: I'm sure one might actually love you.

Check out HoI4. It's entire objective was to be more approachable.

Modding Looks like another dev group going the Xcom2 modding route (and making modding even easier). Hopefully this means we see some fairly interesting total conversions.

HoN is dying/dead. Dota 2 is stagnating. LoL is stagnating. HotS is shallow, casual. Strife is ??? Smite is ??? Paragon is still in beta. Overwatch is leaning more FPS than MOBA. Market isn't that bad for a well developed MOBA, bit crowded if you include shovelware and the casual market -...

This is why I'm so scared for GR:W. TCivision should have been an evolution of GTA5/Watchdogs, but fell woefully short by taking an engine demo and turning it into a game (while dropping visual appeal/depth of detail). The Division had proven concepts to potentially build off of - GR has a...

And that mentality is why we got here in the first place. A market that was rewarded for its patience grows up and lost all semblance of it.

The real shame is that the community was galvanized behind: yet it still supports games that are obviously not 100% at release or obvious cash grabs and companies with shady practices or any basis of learning from previous mistakes. TCis better than most in either regard, but it still fell...

By your changing standards? Every Total War ever save Shogun 1/2 and Empire had more dynamic factions than Warhammer. Try harder.

So I ended up getting the bundle for Sam and Max, Back to the Future, Tales from the Borderlands, Wolf Among Us and Poker Night (and hopefully Jurassic Park). Have Walking Dead + 400 Days already, so up for grabs if someone can provide me a new, quality avatar to use.

Out of all the waist high cover shooters, I don't think anyone ever matched the coop gameplay of Gears. My roommate in college hated video games, but even he got sucked into it after I asked him to help me with one of the original missions. Ended up buying the rest of the franchise just for him.

You don't see an issue with blatantly holding back what most people consider essential pieces of the setting as DLC? You do not see an issue with using lore-essential factions as leverage to lock players in at full price as shady - especially for when said content is 90% already in the game and...

"Just to note - the Chaos Warriors units you see here will be available for you to fightAGAINSTwhether or not you preorder the game." Making an lore-essential race a pre-order bonus is totally a HOMERUN for nailing the Games Workshop business model.

M&B:Warband is definitely worth a pickup (modded or unmodded) if that's what you mean. If you mean Bannerlord, it hasn't been released yet.

I heard the same, but I still disagree after watching streams. To each their own.

Chivalry is mostly dead as a community - at least the community that actually matters (Deadliest Warrior - I miss my Spartan domination). I hope someone reboots the genre after Bannerlord gets everybody antsy for better multiplayer FPM battles. The rest of those games aren't really that...

Sounds like someone used to crying 'lpb' tbh.

It's also on indigala? for $10 I think. Almost bought it, but holding off.

Google Fail or User Fail?

VR modejust got patched in for new games. Also 50% off this weekend on steam.

For anyone that's interested Divinity: Original Sin (Enhanced Edition) justpatched in VRmode for new games. Just have to do a tutorial quest to enable it I believe. Also 50% off on steam this weekend.

Out of your list, Meepo is the only one that belongs there. Going to disagree. Team fights definitely highlight skill level, but you can usually tell how good a voker is by how easily he dominates the mid lane against 90% of heroes. If he is trading or straight losing without enemy supports...

So Daniel started a new play through to act as a tutorial/feature intro with Japan. Part 1 Part 2 Good for seeing the mechanics and how the game is shaped up in general now.

Notice how no where did I praise WC3. :/

Bad opinion or not. I'm not alone in being sad that Blizzard is following the money and going for the casual market, nor did I say anything negative about those games specifically. Additionally, I am not alone in the opinion that Blizzard hasn't produced anything beyond polished, mediocre games...

FTFY - Scene > Trailer

After watching them push SC2 as the first specifically-designed, solid pillar of their esports ecosystem instead of simply as a passionately designed, quality game, I'm not sure I would even waste my time on any future Blizzard IPs. SC2 still had an amazing amount of polish (as one would...
