    Wasteland 2

    Right, so the balance complaints really only manifest themselves on the hardest difficulty version of the game - which was the point of my post if poorly made. I doubt even 5% of us who post here played through on supreme jerk, maybe more on rerolled. The fact all weapons are equally viable...

    Witcher 3

    You'll get feedback quickly on your issue for sure regardless. I think you'll know within days of the launch how pc's handle their listed specs. They are so obscene that plenty of people will buy it without reading the fine print - that's my guess. I'm grateful my rig is not currently...

    Wasteland 2

    Just to be a little contrary. I don't think the balance complaints are all that relevant between the weapon types. On ranger difficulty at least, the weapon styles you chose to use are less important than how you use them. My group has consisted of an SMG user since the beginning...

    Homeworld Franchise

    A small resurrection. Save 15% on Homeworld Remastered Collection on Steam I love these games, but I'm not in for 35 bucks. If you have never played these games - put them on your radar. You won't regret the experience.

    Elite: Dangerous (Kickstarted Sandbox Space Flight Sim)

    I disagree, if they set the stage to have large player migrations towards these locations that works for me too. I really want some kind of space armada gameplay that pushes players to leave the bubble.

    There are permit restricted systems all over the galaxy. Hopefully the things that get put there are compelling. Aliens, we need them.

    DOTA 2

    Get into the rerolled forum guild, I'm assuming just about anyone in this thread has invite privileges - the in game channel lets you ask people who are inside dota if they are up for games.

    Elite: Dangerous (Kickstarted Sandbox Space Flight Sim)

    All they need to do is put an alien race 1000+ly away from known space - require players to be part of the supply effort to get traders involved. This way you can have the supplies in deep space to actually have say naval fleets with repair docks - or some other story based reason for...

    Pillars of Eternity, Obsidian's new CRPG in the vein of Baldur's Gate

    Well I know what I'm doing on march 26th.

    Elite: Dangerous (Kickstarted Sandbox Space Flight Sim)

    I think the hard part about making that decision is just how fast do you allow the expansion. Would the game be better served by having a 1000ly bubble of stations vs 500 or an ever increasing bubble? I'm not sure that's good for the game - it still is going to take the time it will take to...

    Heroes of the Storm

    They really want to put screws to anyone - even moba vets to get to ranked. There is no way I would endure the grind to get 10 champs. I'm not sold on the game enough to spend cash on just hero access. Ranked is going to be absolutely full of players who will be forced into playing the...

    Elite: Dangerous (Kickstarted Sandbox Space Flight Sim)

    An Earth-like I found today - seems like a water world - but there are small snow covered islands - obviously I didn't try to hard to inspect the dark side. These are the most fun thing to find at least near the core worlds as I get the final system scanner. Nothing too exotic 150 ly from...

    Elite: Dangerous (Kickstarted Sandbox Space Flight Sim)

    So I'm not sure how rare the ring/pristine mining systems are - but here is a system on the edge of the occupied section of space - its federation owned - and there is at least 8 ring entrances. The asteroids are pristine reserve and metal rich, and at least 3 of the 6 rings are listed as...

    Elite: Dangerous (Kickstarted Sandbox Space Flight Sim)

    Find a system with rings. Hopefully it has a station and likely in occupied space it will as you want active npc mining activity to take place. This just means there is a police force inside the system as well as some trigger to send npc miners into the belt. Once you hit the ring it will...

    Elite: Dangerous (Kickstarted Sandbox Space Flight Sim)

    Yeah, after my trip to Betelgeuse + watching the systems become uninhabited, into not having the best exploration or planet scanners - being in my viper but having the cash to get into the cobra (sans scanners of course). I definitely am interested in going exploring - however - I'm going...

    Elite: Dangerous (Kickstarted Sandbox Space Flight Sim)

    After all was said and done, I earned 220,000 credits from exploration. Keep in mind a few things. If you have the 1.5 million credit scanner you never waste time flying towards anything. Additionally, the planet survey device really increases the profit for finding metal rich/earth...

    Elite: Dangerous (Kickstarted Sandbox Space Flight Sim)

    Well, I didn't want to space trade and I haven't. However, If you go space exploring it seems that there is literally no stations or if they are its random luck beyond a certain distance. I made it to Betelgeuse, largely because it was just 200 light years more when I was starting to...

    DOTA 2

    So instead of being convinced its juggernaut buffs that are winning you games. Did you ever think its the fact that you have played jug (123/920) more than any other hero in your profile - so you use him more effectively than other choices? I really like juggernaut myself, but the thing...

    Wasteland 2 - is really amazing if you're looking for a sci-fi old school pc rpg. Its got a lot of modern amenities. Additionally it was designed 100% for the pc. If you don't plan on playing it now you could always wait - but if you want to get to it you won't be disappointed. I...

    DOTA 2

    I'm not sure why you say that, giving him 52 attack damage to start the laning phase just makes him able to be used more vs the shit tier 46 base he had prior. What aspect of his kit do you really think puts him up for a nerf.

    I'm consuming this game like I did the eve thread. Reading these posts really makes me want to play it. Sounds pretty sweet - any updates on that civil war status that was posted about a page ago or so?

    Final Fantasy XV (PS4 / XB1 / PC)

    Maybe the old school final fantasy characters would have been just as emo visually if they weren't relegated to sprites. At this point if you play final fantasy, you accept the boy bands.

    Heroes of the Storm

    The main objection I have is that a huge part of the depth of the game is the cast. If 90% of the playerbase has access to like 5-7 total heroes and that's it, the games are going to be full of the same picks over and over. Additionally if the heroes you have arn't good for a certain map...

    If it seems remotely in your wheelhouse you won't regret playing it. Its not all that long - 3-4 hours maybe depending on how quickly you play. Well worth the price of admission.

    DOTA 2

    Ranked matches are generally a little more tryhard, but still pubing. Less leaving - but that also goes away purely with time played and skill. You're still in the phase playing with people that will never play dota again. Once you get past that then you just have the trolly children that...

    DOTA 2

    The return aspect to the X has no mana cost now - and the duration of X is 4 enemy 8 allies at all levels. There is no choice now as to the max duration of X.

    DOTA 2

    I'm not sure how I feel about the kunkka changes, kunkka support might be real. They establish his X both as a long duration lane hold when cast on enemies (4 seconds is forever to be walked down only to be brought back and walked down more), but it can now be used at level 1 like kunkka's...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    I just read the past few pages of the thread, saw mention of the fish/oceans/conservation. Being as I've lived land locked isolated from the ocean my whole life, I don't think about the ocean at all, in my day to day experience. Compared to say the mountains and forests and rivers near my...

    Steam winter auction 2014

    Based on my quick glance in my own inventory, even if I consumed every card I have, I'm not sure I'd have more than a few thousand gems maybe. Too much work!

    Suikoden 2 is one of my all time favorites. How can you say no to a game with the iron chef mafia in it.

    I got in, have played my first games, if my moba hating friends can like it, I can enjoy myself enough to play this with them. Just sticking with Muradin 100%, he's legit.

    I don't have many rerolled folks on my friends list but if there are lurkers still, I have a maxed +150 egg Ltron, a maxed 35 egg max skill DQXQ, and a few others for challenge mode (max level ultimate orochi) and a max D/L Yomi. I can always open slots. Account is rank 201.
