    Bioware's "Anthem"

    I like the game a lot. It's obviously not without flaws, but a lot of them have been proven to be ironed out with a newer build. Like others have said, it's not revolutionary, but it's fun and I look forward to playing it. Especially with friends. There aren't a lot of games these days that I...

    There's open world. It's called "Freeplay."

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    Ya, there are a fuckton of connectivity issues. In the three hours I've played I've had to alt+f4 out of the game 5 times. Just tried (and finished) my first mission on Hard; it went well. Had a few guys get downed, but we completed it on the first run. Nothing impressive, but the step up from...

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    I've been playing it for a couple of hours now and I really like it. I don't have a lot of time invested in Destiny 1/2, but Anthem feels like a similar/better version of that game. Also, I don't completely agree with the common assessment of the controls while using M/KB. The flying could be a...

    Health Problems

    I don't think it's unique to us here, it's Western men as a whole. There is a lot of recent literature that shows average Test levels in men have been dropping for decades. One of the studies I read even suggested that the average Test level of a man today is half what it was 100 years ago. I'm...

    Health Problems

    First, I'm not saying pellets aren't effective at all. Rather, they're just very sub-optimal. They have a huge potential for infection at the application point and massive-scale issues with rates of absorption that often leave patients in the finals weeks/days of the treatment cycle with...

    Health Problems

    This is the first time I've ever visited this thread and I've only read a few pages (starting at the end and working backwards), but pellets are some of the least reliable/effective forms of TRT that you can utilize. Admittedly, I don't know anything about your situation and you may know that...

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    Well, this patch un-fucked my game. It's playable again. I'm still going to wait for 1.1.

    Red Dead Redemption 2

    I know it's completely obvious and I feel a little stupid for not considering it before (basically forgot I had it), but sliding on your bandanna prevents bounties being placed on your head in a lot of instances.

    Red Dead Redemption 2

    I agree about the graphics. Just now I did a side mission where as the sun was coming up I crested a hill that looked over a small mining town and the visuals were so amazing I just whispered to myself "Wtf?" I'm blown away this was possible on a PS4.

    Red Dead Redemption 2

    If you loot that guy, you lose karma.....This game is a near-masterpiece, but some of the mechanics are a little over the top.

    Red Dead Redemption 2

    Yep, that shit is gay as fuck. I had something very similar happen to me and after the bounty hunters ambushed me the first time I just went "fuck it" and killed everyone in the town. Now you've got a reason to come after me, faggots.

    I'm going to echo what the others have said. Wait until the 22nd for the major patch before investing any time in it.

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    With a well crafted party, I can't think of any. In my play through I often had 1 or 2 characters that were almost worthless.

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    Yep. I've avoided the forums and looking in to bugs because my experience until my most recent game-ender was relatively fun. I guess I avoided it because ignorance is bliss to some extent. Now that my game is stalled I've been visiting various forums and the game is far more riddled with bugs...

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    I won't spoil anything, but I just finished the Lich's dungeon. It was extraordinarily challenging and satisfying once I finished it. Unfortunately, going back to the capitol city after this breaks the game. You enter the city and can do nothing but stand there. You can enter the throne room and...

    NM, found a workaround.

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    Despite all the bugs and having to deal with my own negligence that resulted in having to artificially back up my in-game calendar, I'm still playing my original party from release day. I'm level 12 now. The amount of content in this game is quite impressive.

    I know a lot of you think Linzi is useless, but goddamn her fascinate ability is stupidly powerful.

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    Despite all the flaws of this game, I still love it. I truly hope that luke-warm reception doesn't sink this franchise. It has so much potential. *Edit* The constant loading screens can suck a ICBM-sized dick, though.

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    I had to make my Kingdom management automatic so that it wouldn't fail because despite killing the Troll leader (king?), the attacks keep happening until you 'beat' the card event. Well, my adviser failed the roll repeatedly and my kingdom failed because of it. There was absolutely nothing I...

    I downloaded that portrait file a few days ago and it works perfectly.

    Well, I successfully turned the clock back. So glad I didn't have to start over.

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    Yep. I laughed out loud at several of the recommended feats. I was like "WTF?" "That feat is garbage." Also, it's been pointed out in this thread by someone else, but casters are trash for damage. Hold on while I use one of my 3 spells to do 4 damage when I could be stunning, webbing, etc while...

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    I don't personally feel that there's anything wrong with the tuning. There are a shitload of options to tone the difficulty down if you need it. That said, the game is hard for people who don't have an intimate understanding of the P&P game, but I appreciate the accuracy.

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    Thanks, Pyros. That tool is the piece I was missing. I've tried to download CE from three separate sources and all of them are setting off my antivirus. I guess there are a lot of corners of the internet that prey on and punish the retards who 'hack.'

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    My cleric got perma-death'd very early and I was forced to rest a ridiculous amount. And, like I said, I was traveling around/resting with absolutely zero regard for the clock because I had no idea I was on a clock (my fault).
  28. Grabbit Allworth

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    It looks like one of the two authors have added an option to tweak the clock, but I'm not sure how to use the file. There are some vague references by other people who are using it, but I can't get it to work. I know absolutely nothing about modding games to 'cheat.' I've literally never done it.
  29. Grabbit Allworth

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    If any of you figure out how to disable the clock in game, please let me know.

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    Heh, so I realized that I actually completed the timed quest but I screwed around for awhile afterwards and then I had 1 hour of in-game time to get back to the quest giver (impossible). It's going to be awhile before I play this game again. I know it's my fault, but fuck this.

    I wasn't even at that point of the game yet.

    I completely missed that detail and I've been resting without any regard for time management.

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    Nope. All the sudden it just said I failed to complete the quest in time and GG.

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    Well, I just came across a mechanic that I had no idea that I was under. At some point in the first act you have to complete one of the quests in a specific time frame or your game is just done..over. Maybe I wasn't paying close enough attention, but I had absolutely no idea I was under...

    That big acid centipede? I had to reload that fight about 15 times. It's not even a boss fight. It's just random trash that is a lot harder than the rest.

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    After a few more hours of play, it's clear that this game is a winner. If you're a fan of the genre you won't be disappointed. My only criticism is that there is a lot of map loading. It's not a big deal for me as I have an SSD. Anyone playing with a standard HD able to comment on it?

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    It's already been said, but I'll just reinforce the point; the game is essentially PoE without all the odd systems. It's a pretty good D&D adaptation. I like it a lot, but I'm only level 3 (about 3 hours played). The graphics are quite good and the music is above average.

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    I have it installed and I'll be able to play in a few hours. I'll give you guys an initial impression as soon as I can.

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    I'm just going to go with the basic edition. I couldn't care less about anything except the DLC and there's a high chance that it won't take place after the end of the base game and I have very little interest of playing these types of RPGs more than once.

    I'm really excited about this, but something tells me this game is going to be a disappointment. And, much like Void, I can't decide which tier to buy...
