    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    Well if the guy played the entire game for 45hours and only has some fairly minor complaints, I'd say that's a pretty decent game. Doesn't sound like GotY material but not being as bad as DA2 is already a pretty solid step forward. The story being its own thing is interesting though, I hadn't...

    Valkyria Chronicles

    Game is released btw. Durante made an article (can read it thereValkyria Chronicles PC port analysis: Durantes verdict - PC Gamer) on the port quality, short version is that it's really good minus very minor issues(can't use mouse in menus, but since menus are made for playstation it's not...

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    You haven't looked much? They're on this very page. Obviously the last few posts are positive since they're about the reviews that just popped and the reviews are positive. Some people never swore off Bioware or whatever so objectively, based on reviews, this looks like a good game. On the other...

    Bard DPS is garbage until later on, especially the 48 trait is a massive gamechanger but even in general it sucks for a while as you level up. During 2.0, and like 2.1, Bard DPS was actually top tier. It's only as gear scales up that it fell a bit, plus any progression stuff you're gonna be...

    What's funny is they have a language option at the bottom, but it only has one option.

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    That does sound like a pretty good system, if they don't fuck you when you tell them you don't like it. I hate having to download cracked games to play "demos" to see if I like a game or not, and most devs don't bother doing demos anymore(I don't blame them, shit's quite a waste of time in most...

    SMN AoE is weird, it's really good for up to 4 targets and garbage over that, so depends on the fight. Any "strong adds" fight is good, any "zerg adds" fight is terrible. BLM AoE is way beyond everything else, assuming you can stand still while aoeing. Also WHM actually aoes better than every...

    Heroes of the Storm

    There was Idra, what else do you need? I watched a couple of games but they were pretty boring. I guess I'm biased since I don't really like playing the game myself much but I can still watch League and enjoy it, HotS so far I've found to be pretty boring to watch. Lack of like, personnal...

    FATE grindings bosses as SCH is kinda slow. Normal fates you can aoe shit down decently, but WHM does that a lot better. It's not optimal really, even though you literally can't die ever. Only stuff I can't solo well on my SCH are Peisteskin maps and A+ rank hunts. Both are 8man content though...

    Overwatch

    There definitely is. Wether or not that difference makes the newer games worse though is entirely subjective. Flattening the skillgap so as to give the illusion that bad players are more useful isn't necessarily a bad thing. End of the day, bad players are still bad and still get trashed by good...

    Valkyria Chronicles

    Yeah as I mentionned before, all DLCs are included in the game apparently.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Oh my bad then, thought it was Animus right away, guess it stays Atma. You'll see special icons over the head of the mobs when you have the correct weapon equipped, similar to quest mobs and shit but it's a unique one. Books are fucking shit, they take fucking forever and there's so much shit to...
  13. Pyros

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    You need your Animus weapon equipped to do the books. For the dungeons, only need it equipped for the last boss(though better to just equip right away so you don't forget). You get the animus right away then you add stats on it by completing books. There's no FATE grinding on animus, or well...

    Overwatch

    That seems very unlikely. All the space bar actions are what you'd expect as a keybinding for these abilities: Climb wall(hold spacebar to climb), Jetpack(hold spacebar to fly) and the wings stuff(hold spacebar to slow down falls). To me that sounds like Space is jump but on the characters that...

    Overwatch

    I don't think he was saying TF2 is better. But yeah it's probably gonna be similar. I'm pretty cautious about this game, mostly because HotS monetization is a fucking mess and I think they'll go for something similar. That and the fact they think "ultimates" are a good idea in a FPS. Shit's...

    Hearthstone

    Oh so this stuff is actually already well under way, thought it'd take forever, guess they were working on it in parallel with naxx. Expansion theme sounds shit but eh, more cards is good.

    Steam Deals and Digital Sales

    The games are still on the store page, just not on the client so yeah, who knows. Aren't they gonna just do that shit where when you launch it, it launches uplay/origin anyway? So doesn't really matter.

    Valkyria Chronicles

    Well as Vorph said, you could still play tactically, you just didn't get max grade which meant you had to do more of the sidestuff which was longer, but unless you're speedrunning it wasn't a big issue. And that's why Scouts were best iirc, cause they had the super high movement and they could...

    Nobuo Uematsu wants to make a 2D Final Fantasy VI-type game

    They had a unique skill/mechanic each. Though I'll agree the "class" system in FF6 wasn't the strong point, it could have done with a more traditional job system, or more depth to their unique traits. Still for most of the game you had unique characters, the only time you reached "everyone is...

    Valkyria Chronicles

    Isn't that everyone? I remember reading complaints about that, not sure if it was here or reddit but yeah seems pretty shitty to buy japanese games on Steam from japan. It's that or retarded full prices. TPB version I guess?

    Valkyria Chronicles

    Btw in case people don't read news sites or reddit, this releases next week, 11/11. Price is 20dollars/20euros, includes all console DLCs, you can buy it on GMG with a 23% discount though(the main coupon that's on front page) and there's also a 10% discount for preorder, which I think stacks, so...

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    Oh yeah nevermind then. Have little interest in the multiplayer stuff myself so whatever. Don't mind buying the game though, I don't feel I should like get the game for free cause the previous 2 games were bad(and ME3 was fairly good, besides the ending which ruined the series, but I don't...

    Unless they have dedicated servers, generally cracked stuff works fine with like hamachi or that new fancy thing I forgot the name of that replaced Hamachi.

    Guild Wars 2

    Yeah I saw a reddit post about it so logged in for 5secs to unlock it and logged off again. I played a few of the episodes before, when I get bored I'll play the rest.

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    Well on the upside, they're dropping the review embargo before the actual release of the game, which lately is a bit uncommon. So there's that. On the other hand a lot of DA2 reviews were good, so wouldn't put too much weight into them. I'll definitely buy day1 stuff though, not everything...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    For now yeah, it was known for a while already that Wildstar was the last large project, besides Titan(which was cancelled in the meantime). Only thing to look forward to is possibly Black Desert, since it's being ported relatively soon after the korean release, though it's going to be published...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah that's why you never go back to LotA, it's harder and gives shit loot and takes longer. ST is just way better for casual raiding and since 2.4 it's basically the place to go to for gearing up, until whenever they make hunts good again. Probably not before 2.5 though, which will have the 3rd...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Did you check the AH thing? Not sure if you have any money though, but can probably i70 for like 400k or so and then it's ST queue all day long. Other than that I think you're better off running dungeons than labirynth. Also obviously, spend your soldiery on gear asap.

    Evolve - from makers of L4D

    On the relay map yeah you can spread out a good bit, on the reactor map(I think it was a reactor), it's like a really closed room and it makes it super hard to spread out well enough, if the monster focuses you you kinda have to run into other people since there's no other way to run which ends...

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    Divinity: Original Sin? This game will need to be really good to beat that, though so far what they've shown looks much better than 2, or even 1 for that matter, so I'm fairly positive about the game. Need to wait a bit more though.
  32. Pyros

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    You can be any class BUT you need a Zenith weapon equipped, meaning you can't get atmas while lvling, which sucks. On the other hand they massively increased atma drop rates and people are reporting getting all 12 atmas within a single (long) day, which would have been a joke prepatch when it...

    Evolve - from makers of L4D

    Played 5-6 games, the game looks pretty poor. L4D I thought was pretty fun but this isn't designed properly. On one hand, if the monster is retarded, the game is way too easy. On the other, if the monster is smart and basically just circle around the map and feeds constantly while avoiding all...

    Evolve - from makers of L4D

    They apparently sent me a bunch of codes, so here, too lazy to do PMs: I assume they're steam codes like the original one.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah both LoA and ST(since 2.4 patch). Especially now with the removal of ST lock out, LoA is completely worthless other than glamour(that monk armor looks so good).
  36. Pyros

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Oh then you could probably do it, tbh it doesn't matter you need like 2 tanks for the entire thing, other tanks are just there to distract adds or what not. You want to get it out of the way asap as you're not ever going back in there once it's done, just need to unlock ST. For ST, you'll need...
  37. Pyros

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Don't think you can queue as 52 anyway. For gearing early on, you're probably better off running dungeons and stuff. Try to unlock all the trials and all the normal dungeons so you can run high lvl roulette and trial roulette, these give decent soldiery every day, and the runs themselves...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    It's pretty nice. Actually is fairly complex even though there's very little to none positional requirements(every minute you want to hit from the back once and every 20secs from the flank once assuming a WAR isn't doing the slash debuff for you). There's a lot of off the GCD stuff and the...
