What can I say, value is subjective, but at least to me it’s not what I would describe as Big Mac pricing.
This is a $70 game with a ‘season pass’ and the ultimate edition is $130. That’s hardly big mac price.
The company I work for does B2B and clients do the same shit. 45-90 day pay cycle after invoicing. That shit kills smaller businesses.
What? Isn’t this a common W for steam? This seems like a good thing to me.
Jesus Christ, that’s a lot of weirdos.
And that woman was Einstein.
I’ve never rarely ever had that except one or two games in the last 15 years…
Yup. I know exactly what you mean. I bought Nobody Wants to Die, which is rated platinum on protondb, and it just crashes within 1 second of startup for me. 3h of fucking around with proton versions, launch arguments, even tried lutris, nothing. The only error I could see took me to a stackoverflow thread about vga to dvi adapter issues and the fix was not relevant. My protontricks is apparently also broken which I have no idea why or when it broke.
I got it refunded, it is what it is. I’ll look into fixing my protontricks when I have more time…
It’s the players who are wrong.
/s ofc
I just beat this guy. Walked in with a colossal hammer and pancaked him. Took two tries because the first time I didn’t realize he didn’t turn into the fat one, but it was a summon instead.
I don’t really have much advice, really. Run sideways towards him when he spams projectiles, dodge into the big projectile, ignore his summons since your big hammer will hit them too anyway.
As I said I don’t think I’d achieve anything by arguing my point. Imo single difficulty is or should be part of the genre. It’s totally ok for others to also just not play it at all.
I’m a huge Dark Souls and Elden Ring fan, but there’s no excusing Fromsoft’s code quality. Under no circumstances should someone be able to execute invalid code on someone else’s machine. I’m a software dev myself and the sheer ingenuity of effects ‘hackers’ can implement is astounding to me. Co-op is also just terrible, IMO. Unreliable, buggy, and kind of unrewarding that you have to do everything once for every participant. Performance has never been all that good, but it’s almost expected for console ports nowadays, which I wish was not the case.
They did update the requirements on pc. I’ve had to take my game down from high to high with motion blur off and lower quality water and shadows. I hope they make improvements.
I am one of those people who prefers that the game only has one difficulty. My friend and I both played Phantom Liberty, and unfortunately he didn’t enjoy it as much as I did because at higher difficulty he struggled too much with combat in a way he didn’t find fun. I could argue my point for a while but I doubt I’d achieve anything.
I can see your point on balancing. A great deal of mobs (not even bosses) in the dlc early game can poise or recover from a heavy blow too fast (not talking about damage). It’s almost like they’re tuned for greatswords and greataxes. That’s fine for me, I didn’t mind the respec, but other people do.
As for the difficulty in the DLC, it is more difficult, but IMO not as bad as it’s made out to be. Early (for me) in the day yesterday I heard people were fighting Messmer, and some have even beaten the final boss. Fucking how? You could only have done that if you did a boss rush and no exploration. People did not play the game and did not have the skills to play the way they were trying.
Whatever levels you have in the base game, they are nearly irrelevant until you get to about your 5th blessing. People need to run around and find those upgrades. I wonder if people even know that some random mobs drop them.
You get several larval tears in the early areas. If you’re out at night, you can find little glowing cemeteries with larval tears in them.
I myself have respec’d my character, and have had to give up a few incantations that I used to rely on, but now that I have more of the blessings, they’re finding their way back into my repertoire. Thinking back, I’m not as convinced anymore that the incantations were the problem, it’s very likely that I just didn’t have enough blessings.
I took down a certain knight in a tomb who wielded a repeating crossbow and a greatsword. It took me maybe 30 tries with 0 blessings. I wonder how many tries I would need with 11.
It definitely shows some bosses we haven’t seen before, and the narration hints at what the story might be, or at least the surface level that represents this character’s narrative. For the most part, it’s a bit like watching the original release trailer.
You don’t need to watch it to know, it is fucking epic. I am hyped beyond all measure. We are so fucking back.
I really believe that this has nothing to do with kids. “For the kids” has made me suspicious of intentions for a long time. It makes it difficult to argue against it because it implies that you’re a pedo or are doing something illegal otherwise. You implement general monitoring “for the kids”, and then you add some anti piracy stuff to it, then you add some hate group detection, some anti government group detection, etc. Now you have everything you need to get ahead of any danger to the government. If the people can’t organize, you can do whatever you want.
It was pretty rough getting out of the Sellia Crystal Tunnel at like lvl 20. The pest threads catch up pretty fast and I had no hp.
Mind you, I did do it. Then I came back and got my vengeance.
IMO sitting at my desk, watching logs or waiting for something to come in isn’t living my life. I can’t do my hobbies, I can’t play video games, drink a beer, watch a movie, hang out with my friends, etc. Browsing lemmy or youtube isn’t exactly living my life. As long as I’m at that desk, I’m working.
That’s not the game locking you out of stuff, that’s you being stuck in a portion of the game. Totally different. ER did that too, with the trap teleport chests. Usually you have to fight your way out. If you’re underleveled, it’s going to be an ordeal, but it is doable.
Have they done that before? I don’t remember it off the top of my head.
Do kids movies have to be stupid and vapid? This looks completely soulless.
