One thing I haven't really seen though is if any of the SteamBoxes are going to be modular. The Alienware's obviously aren't with an onboard mGTX, but did anyone actually hone in on the real aimpoint (simplicity of design/updating your rig)? Being able to remove and replace key components...

I don't. Steam hard locking your PC's resources was something that completely turned me off from PC gaming for the majority of the xbox 360 gaming era. Initial Steam was worse than malware. Christ. Now though, it's hard to imagine my current gaming without Steam being central to it. I have to...

Going from other reviews while I was investigating the sound issue, natively, I do not think it works. However, the Steam Link is only transmitting back and forth to your PC, so if your PC is receiving input and is converting it, it should work if it would normally work with your PC assuming you...

Soy, can you rename the thread, please, to "SteamOS and SteamWare" ?

I'm of the same mind on price. I was expecting something much more robust or at least modular. I'd replace my computer in a heartbeat for a rig designed from the get go for minimal footprint and 1 minute hardware swaps, but that doesn't seem to be the case here. Especially if we're talking...

So that's two up votes for the steam pad, but I'm with Hator - you two are literally the only people I've seen comment positively so far. I only have a Steam link personally, so I can't comment on the box or the pad - but I want try and get the discussions going in this thread since they're...

Rise. Rise from the depths and be restored! I know this isn't the first review out, but it's from a YouTuber that I watch regularly

Kuriin, what's the secret to making that thick, creamy milk caramel. I never seem to find the magic in my kitchen to achieve that perfect consistency - I'm always left with something that dribbles even when cool or flakes off the steel.

I don't think I can disagree more - to the degree that I wonder if we're talking about the same game. The only reason I picked up LL at all was for the settlement achievement and I was intentionally wanting to be a CH based character. Outside of the achievement LL had no effect on my play...

I can see how Charisma could be relegated to settlements and companions, but as is there is literally no meaningful benefit to going charisma unless you're running for achievements/settlements. S, P, E, I, A (and L to a minor degree) all directly contribute to progressing through the game in...

Guess no one bit the hook. Community Patch 01 released on the 10th tl:dr DA:Origins style companion skill trees added, Nature tile set added(is it purchasable or free?), paid skill respec, party stash, DM forced skill checks, additional DM creature abilities(purchasable or free?).

If I remember correctly, yes the perks are calculated in on display damage once purchased.

This thread is begging for a thread rename.

I can agree to that, but I also think it's giving a free pass to the ongoing trend of butcher-style development. A clear cut example of what's wrong with current AAA development and no one wants to say anything because "Everyone should have known better?"

Not everyone is an informed consumer, much less someone that played the beta. Coupled with NDAs and the way press get their strings-attached copies, I think it's fairly justifiable to still see a community kickback for a major developer to shovel out shellware for a major IP when rebooting a...

My girlfriend and I got my money's worth out of it even though we haven't been able to get together yet to play the finale episode. I thought WD was harder to sit through by far, but some of the choices in the game seem somewhat meaningless(as a gamer that's disappointing, but the gf hasn't...

Dandain would disagree, but I'd say no. I got it at release and would still take the 9.00 if they offered it to me. I haven't played any of the HOMM games for comparison, but AoW just doesn't excel at anything. Units are bland and limited, spells are limited, crafting is limited, and the AI...

I'm honestly surprised at how quiet the community is over this. Maybe it's because ME has the SJW fan base, but the ME3 ending garnered an exponentially larger fallout for a significantly smaller franchise mutilation. Also makes me laugh at the arguments pre-release tearing at the people who...

Real question is why doesn't he passively add to settlement happiness.

I had a lot more fun playing MGS5 (the only MGS I've played/purchased) than FO4. You guys are haters. Also looking forward to how the MGSonline works out next quarter.

It worked for Pillars because the story was supposed to be depressing and "thought/emotion provoking". They wanted to encircle you with depressing themes, music, and motifs as part of your connection to the "awakened" - remember that you died within the first 10 minutes of the game. I think it...

I'm actually kind of curious of what the official stance on FO4 mods is going to be a year from now. Right now we're waiting on GECK, right? Makes me wonder if they they're trying to salvage the tax system from the Skyrim meltdown.

Why don't you take a second look at the time stamps of your post and the next two then kindly grab some common sense with your current post in mind. While you're at it, look at the tree below me and use the lights to find your answer.

Tuco's embargo hasn't lifted. Spoiler that shit. [Edit] Embargo is until Dec 10. Talk about the game, your (un)happiness with it, mods, or W3 all you want but story sensitive posts still need spoilers.

Now, now. This isn't a thread to bash FO4 or compare to W3 in. Remember, if you remotely enjoyed the game your opinion is invalid and if you didn't nobody cares.Hahaha. --- In all honesty though I do agree the companions were the main improvements over FO3 for me in improving the story(still...

Color me unimpressed. Looks like a non-ubisoftPhantoms

Still no change to Rangers? Where is the love?

A couple months ago, maybe. Community is pretty fractured at this point between 4/H/SW + BO3

I don't get that either. Why implement something with no real effect or counter in game play. Seems like yet another mechanic they failed to implement.

I'm thinking metrosexualized candycane cheek tattoo that wraps around the eye socket with a Santa hat in the iris.

A real improvement to high power rifles would be to make stagger a non-unique/critical effect. Taking a 50 or .308 to anywhere on the body is going to put you on the ground. Taking that out of base combat mechsnic was the dumbest combat related design decision. Every enemy in the game should be...

If it makes you feel better, I feel like both JoH/Descent are equally the Omega of DA:I. Neither add anything that couldn't have been in the main game. At least with Trespasser you can see them justifying the money grab post-release and the work they put into it, not to mention the major story...

Wasteland 2 is a turn based RPG with a little bit more freedom within the narrow scope of the game. It's not terribly long and the world isn't super big, but you have a lot of room to play around with how you complete things. Versus FO4 has a lot of room to play around, but very few ways of...

FO4 is barely half-full, much less filled to the brim. There's quite a bit of dead space and inaccessible structures in the game. Is that giving you an illusion of content? Even the real content that is there is fairly shallow unless you're in a hub.

He's in an inaccessible area that doesn't get unlocked until right before the end of the game if you choose the BoS route (even then the doors bugged out for me and it remained inaccessible). Go ahead and remember -tcl (toggle clipping) you're probably going to need it at some point. For...

Called it!

Pretty sure it just comes down to whether or not an area is a respawnable cell or not. Being stuck with bodies at the Castle/Sanctuary bridge the entire game was a little immersion breaking with how active and large the wildlife is. Although, I'll certainly try that artillery stunt if I have...

Just be aware only the first swing is a guarantee stun.
