Who is sour? I didn't complain about anything.... Just seems like the most odd Season Pass I've ever seen. This seems to have no benefit at all personally.
The beta was decent, its Gears, nothing drastic done, it was cool to play some of the classic maps. I'll get it for the single player at most, play the coop with my girl, and then put it on the shelf.
This seriously seems like The Coalition wanted to include a lot of free things with the game, like the map rotation, but then at the same time, wanted to make more money and make a season pass and didn't know what to ultimately charge for.
Man the irony here.
I honestly think these devs are leaving a crap load of junk files or regional files - language packs, or something, because that is insane. We still haven't gotten that big on data files on PC. And there are games that still don't take up a quarter as much data as some of these Xbox One titles.
Damn, is Kotaku hiring? I hope their parent company doesn't shut them down, because is bullshit articles like this are being publicized, I can make you 50 of these a day.
That sounds pretty perfect to me. An decent budget shooter with free DLC, and a $30-40 price tag. I think I can bite. But would need to see more.
With the abundance of crap on Steam, with all the indie, F2P, P2W, and budget games, might be hard to get your foot in the door, considering a lot of people don't know who Cliff is or what he's done in the past.
What I appreciate the most if it is true, is the free map and character DLC. I don't want...
Looks pretty good Cliff, keep up the good work. I see some of the level design got inspiration from the UT games. Looking forward to see more from this.
@Soldierone,
Best Buy does have great deals at time. But for the simple fact that you get so much from Amazon.
Yes, it is wrong that they exclusively put video games behind a pay wall. But myself personally I like the benefit I get as a Prime member.
On top of the ridiculous lower prices and free shipping they have been offering for years. But in the recent years we've gotten a ton additions. Streaming music, movies, and books, free...
If you buy 10 games a year, you can literally make your money back.
Amazon offers games at a 20% discount for a good time on pre-orders and new release games. Also the fact that you can get release day shipping, FREE, 2 day shipping, free, and next day shipping typically at $2-8 depending the item.
This has been the case for a pretty long time. As others have said.
It is messed up, but you do ahve to look carefully.
I didn't need to try Prime, the benefits were loud and clear.
I thought I've been banned this entire time, but the connections are so bad sometimes, a majority of the people who summon me are floating around and barely have animations.
The lag has been so bad as of late that some enemies aren't even there at all for me. I see the host loosing health or swinging their weapons in the air like idiots, and I'm just standing, and they probably think the same.
From Software has to be a bit more specific and le...
Fin, you have a good point, but MS isn't some 3rd party developer. With Dark Souls 1, its understandable a Japanese company, who never worked on PC releases a half ass port.
But when you have the company that makes the OS you are working under backing you, you better release something decent.
That is like Sony releasing botched Uncharted, Last of Us, God of War etc.... It makes no sense, that YOUR first party developers are releasing half ass games. ...
Eonjay, the metric is to show PERSONAL growth. You have that in the company you work for I assume, or do your accountants and bosses throw numbers out their asses as well?
People used to play for 20 hours, now with 50% growth its 30 hours a week on Windows 10. Or whatever the metric is. How the hell would it help to show figures of other platforms?
@Nix, that still isn't the point. Hell, the number could probably even be a 5 minute increase consideri...
@Blacklash your argument is fundamentally flawed.
Those games required you to clear areas of enemies and levels to progress, ultimately to an end section/level boss.
The Souls series doesn't require entirely.
You can go through the game without ever seeing certain enemies and bosses. You can, and sometimes have to run through certain sections to get to that next section or boss. This game isn't about killing everything, its abou...
It's already on easy mode in a way.
This game doesn't force you to do anything to progress.
You don't have to kill every enemy of a section. You don't have to kill every boss.
You don't have to do it alone. You can get summoned and see what you have to do beforehand.
You have the ability to run or roll away from everything to revisit an area, and MOST enemies will not pursue you.
How far along are you? I hope it is the 11ish hours Insomniac said it was. Want to buy it for my girl and watch her play.
We still have all the previous ones.
I would also like to see the comeback of action adventure 3D games like this.
With so many developers and publishers out of the picture the PS2 Era of adventure games died down dramatically.
All we are getting is annual rehashes, and a lot of them are good but t...
Yea, though I have to say the ending became a bit predictable. Nevertheless an super amazing game.
I hope if they make a sequel, that they flesh out the settlements a lot more.
It sometimes felt a bit dead and everything was too scripted. Would like like a Skyrim/Fallout style thing where there are people all around and things get done.
Have you played both copies?
Because I have. Maxed out 1080p the rendering is terrible on PC.
Don't know the reason for the disagrees I state the game is great but the port like Gears is bad.
That is the beauty of it. You don't.
I bought the Xbox One Elite controller and don't regret it.
As a game it is amazing.
As a game for Windows it is horrendous. The port is just terrible.
Xbox One version currently has better visuals than the PC version.
I can't bring the resolution higher than 1080p with Nvidia DSR. If I could at least do that, the temporal reconstruction resolution wouldn't be so damn bad.
You realize that each person working on the game has a specific skill set?
The person working on the level design, and textures/graphics might be really great at what he does, and may have multiple people working on it, meanwhile the animator might be fresh out of college, or an amateur at best at what he does.
This is an indie studio, and if they make more money, their next game might be that much better.
