Well we're a little over a month into it's release, i'm still playing it fairly consistently. But at lvl 28 I'm reaching the 'what's the point of trying for 29/30' point. I've done some partial Vault runs, basically never beaten the Templar, but was reinvited to kill Atheon and got some loot from that. I found the Vault of Glass more frustrating than fun, and if they're randomizing who gets teleported.. screw it. I'll just farm strange coins and buy ...
Horror seems to have been redefined to mean 'gore'. Many of the new horror games are just trying to out-gore their competition.. Soon they'll probably be calling Mortal Kombat horror. To me the term should mean fear, creating anxiety and distress for the player.. Outlast, Alien: Isolation come to mind.
Well the areas aren't small, they're just empty. When the Queens' Wrath missions were taking place a few weeks ago I took it upon myself to find the devil walker tank in free-roam to do the bounty (since it wasn't counting the kill unless you got the killshot or were right next to the one that did), that was when I got to see how big the cosmodrome area was.
The problem is that large area is recycled into the missions, so you basically see everything at least...
Ezio was at least a more interesting character but I agree that a full reboot is probably in order. I've played every AC except the portable version and while the gameplay seems to tighten up the story becomes less cohesive. The only thread that connects them is their war with the templars, and in AC2 the fact you could unlock Altair's gear. Then they killed off Desmond with barely a mention in Black Flag after giving him nearly a piece of every ending in the games that preceded it...
TLOU also handled things differently.. it had a complete storyline with the dlc tying into it. Many games though, Assassins Creed, Destiny (to name a couple) take story pieces out of a storyline, then offer them to you as either a pre-order bonus or DLC. And that is bullshit.
Their obvious intent is to drive up game prices to essentially be $100 for the 'complete story/experience'. I already have a hard time validating $60 for most titles, hence why I still pay f...
My 2TB external laughs at your dilemma and load times.
^This^ and Watch Dogs.. another game that was delayed to improve it and still seemed like it needed more time.
We're lucky if it's even sequels.. seems like it's either an "HD remake" or a multi-platform game that is out on old and new gens. There's no incentive for people to buy the new consoles if they can play the same games and save themselves $400.
Preach! The numbering convention has been used in movies forever. If anything, Final Fantasy should stop numbering their games since none of them offer any continuity from the previous game with an exception of lightning returns and FFXiii-2.
I was thinking something similar, how developing a game for a VR headset like Oculus could easily lead to this. While I've yet to ever see Oculus personally, I would imagine that the ability to show everything around you on a room projection system would be just as easy as rendering things behind you while using the VR headset.
Ugh more articles on this... it seems Bungie thinks it's fine as-is, and they're the ones who make the call. Don't like it? Don't play it.. they (presumably) already have your money.
The only thing I'd even play this for would be the shader, and I don't care enough about the appearance of my armor to justify grinding ANOTHER rep in a frustrating PvP arena.
Well that seems a little melodramatic.. there are definitely flaws and a sense of disappointment. But then I've been gaming for a long time now and had plenty of time to see worse games. Maybe you're younger than I and/or newer to gaming. I can name 3 games right now, old/semi-old/recent that were considerably worse. Rygar on NES, The Bouncer on PS2, Battlefield 4 on anything.. one more for good measure? Medal of Honor Warfighter.
The screenshot of Ryse on this article reminds me of the truth about graphics. Ryse was fun for a little bit, but it's flaws began to show very early into my play time.. namely the simplified gameplay and the extremely short campaign. I sat down and played it for an hour or two with a friend and was nearly finished with the campaign already.
This'll sound pretty common-sensical.. but great games are empowered by great graphics, but great graphics alone don't mak...
Reputation is solely the reason I won't play it. I could spend the next few weeks grinding rep to maybe get to a high enough rank to buy something worthwhile.. but probably not with my limited casual play time. I made it to Queens' Wrath rank 2 with a few days to spare, but those bounties were considerably easier than playing unbalanced crucible matches. Hard pass.
False. Every item needs to be upgraded with parts which come from any color item. Though the last few upgrades tend to be held up by Ascendant Shards/Energy which only come from purple, you still need weapon/armor parts to upgrade.
I'll do nothing in Iron Banner myself. I've got one purple primary weapon, so pretty sure all those who've done raids and/or received exotic primaries will win.
Side-note: I really hope the first DLC releases sooner than later, or it's gonna be pretty empty in the world of Destiny.

Can you see it? I sure can't.
Ubisoft has been relegated to being a gamefly-only publisher for me. Granted Far Cry 3 was solid, so i'm waiting to see how they managed to ruin the fun in Far Cry 4.
Good luck getting 1080p/60fps on a $400 PC. Well I suppose if you set graphics quality to medium you'd get the frames and resolution. Consoles are a compromise.. you're paying for the ease of use and decent specs/graphics. If you want 4k graphics at 60fps your choices are PC or nothing, and $400 might get you a video card capable of that.
