    Sea of Thieves (PC / Xbone)

    I'll agree its overpriced and would suggest anyone to either go the Xbox Pass route or hold off till the price drops because I believe it most definitely will after the initial rush. But one thing is I don't expect the core of the game to change at all. I believe it was a very conscious...

    Sea of Thieves (PC / Xbone)

    This is pretty much my one big complaint. At 60$ I am overpaying cause my friends want a game to hang out, laugh and shoot the shit in. To all the people claiming this is No Man Sky, that there is tonnes of missing content and we are all getting defrauded, no. The developer did not claim...

    Kraken, being an overly large squid shoots ink into the water. Turning it black. Also, they prolly didn't model anything besides the tentacles :)

    Sea of Thieves (PC / Xbone)

    Thought BG meant battle ground. I've heard some talk of it. Making a free for all battle royal game and I wouldn't be surprised if they do that. Only thing is they'd have to change the base game a bit. Doesn't fortnight have gear progression and upgraded weapons? Or does the battle royal...

    Sea of Thieves (PC / Xbone)

    Separate post for separate idea. This game is going to have microtransactions. No loot boxes, but I read that they were planning on including micro transactions. I expected it to just be cosmetics but a friend of mine who is big on the mobile phone games gave me a scary suggestion. This is...

    Sea of Thieves (PC / Xbone)

    Yes and no. The betas we've seen have been far from what is supposedly in the final release. A whole faction was missing, none of the 'advanced' quest lines were in. Supposedly there are tougher 'legendary' quests and once you attain legendary status you unlock areas and new questlines. The...

    Sea of Thieves (PC / Xbone)

    I don't really know if the game will be more 'good' than it is already. I don't really expect there to be much of a change in design at this point. I don't really expect there to be any meaningful progress put in outside of cosmetics and titles. They might eventually implement items that let...

    Sea of Thieves (PC / Xbone)

    I wouldn't be surprised if we find out the game isn't exactly finished yet. That they have features they intended to add that just aren't making it into the release. It would kinda explain why they aren't really forthcoming in what will be in the release and talk about their future plans in a...

    Sea of Thieves (PC / Xbone)

    So after the weekend of playing this, I'm prolly going to end up getting it. A good number of my friends will be picking it up, and while I don't think its worth the 60$ price tag it fits a role in their schedules quite well. It seems to be that semi casual game that you can pick up and play...

    Sea of Thieves (PC / Xbone)

    That's been the feeling of most of my friends. We are enjoying the open beta weekend, but its almost like that is all we really need cause there isn't much to the game atm. Unless they are holding something back it just doesn't feel worth the 60$ price tag unless you have a chunk of money you...

    Monster Hunter: World

    Have they given you the option to invert the Y axis yet? I downloaded the beta and kinda quit cause that's just one of the crazy bugaboos I have. I kept trying to look up and something and ended up staring at the ground over and over and couldn't find a way to change it in options.

    Gov't Regulation for Games Discussion- DLC related

    So you are saying, because you are unable to control yourself personally, the government should step in and make laws so you don't have to? Or am I misunderstanding you? If you think the government should protect you from yourself because you are incapable of not buying loot boxes, we have...

    Gov't Regulation for Games Discussion- DLC related

    I am interested, if you have knowledge of the topic, in knowing what the laws entail more specifically. As far as I understand the only two main requirements are that the games aren't 'rigged' in some way to artificially deflate your odds, and that you are of majority age to participate. The...

    The problem I feel with all this is the old saying, "Once you pay the Danegeld, you're never rid of the Dane." I don't think government will do anything to solve this 'loot box problem' you all keep talking about. Yes, targeting kids is predatory sales but lets be honest. Do you really think...

    From what little I have gathered, it is MMO like the open world parts of Destiny are. They are 'shared instances' where some people will be put together, but I get the impression there is a cap on zones or the like. So they do this thing where they put people together randomly in zones, but...

    I'm noticing your badge is for your 'highest' mmr of the season. Not current I don't think. I never played ranked before. Wasn't into the try hard, but figured why not with the new season. Got placed at 1k. Made it up to 1.5k and then fell down to 1.2 with a bad run. My icon never changed...

    I only half watched the BTS Tourney so I might be off. But, didn't CCnC just seem like trash? Every time I was checking in it seemed like he had lost mid, was behind in farm and was feeding. I rather like PPD's brand of sarcasm and seeing him play again is entertaining, but I don't see how...

    I don't see how you all can think the government getting too involved with loot boxes is a good thing. The way forward from there is scary if you think of the full ramifications. Magic the Gathering booster packs? Gambling, cause you don't know whats inside and it has real value. Buying...

    Anyone still playing this? I poked at the IP address Vepil had posted and it was timing out. Interested in hoping back in just to play around with the new expansion now that I have some free time again.

    I don't know how you can't put a lot of this on Cr1t. He is the captain, so even if drafting is a collaborative effort, he's the man in charge of it. Zai admitted in the interview the team itself was timid and not making good decisions in game. And, who is the captain thats supposed to make...

    I just don't get Cr1t's drafts, letting Reso get Sven again. Picking WW twice. And his curse usage was abysmal. Sumail is still good. I think the rest of the team is still pretty solid. I just would like to see them perform with a different captain. As much as I like PPD, honestly I think...

    I was looking back, and they seriously picked PL into the first pick ES? Umm. WTF why? I can't even be mad at Arteezy. Why pick it into such an obvious counter. Not to mention the Sven afterwards. That, tossed with Cr1t's questionable WW play it makes me wonder what he's thinking. I hope...

    EG looking snakebit as fuck. Makes me wonder whats going on internally with the team cause it seems like some of their decisions and calls just don't make sense. Hope they get their shit together and pull this out. Would hate to see them go out like this.

    If I recall they can detect them. They just have been removed from the database and as such are 'unkown'. So they are 'life'. Just they don't register as any known life in the universe.

    So I've been thinking about this a bit lately. For starters, I enjoyed the film but that was mostly due to low expectations going into it. Reviews had been so harsh that I expected shit, and it was average. Very good visuals, sorta whatever story. But I think it fell prey to trying to be 'too...

    So, thinking about getting this cause a friend of mine are bored, want to shoot shit and build giant penises. Is it worth getting anything other than the basic option? Can you upgrade it later? Don't really expect much out of the game other than a decent drop in cartoony shooter that lets us...

    So far, with the one strike we have, PvE seems more the same and I am happy for that. I would expect PvP to be expanded at some point. The one thing about D1 that was good is they were always willing to work on improving the game, making more modes and fixing the horrible item grinds. I...
