I will be trying the game on 16th with Origin Access but if I can't run the game adequately on my PC I will be cancelling my preorder.
I can run BF1 really well there is no excuse not to run this game just as well.
Microsoft has no rights to Civ 6 (and many other PC exclusive games) so good luck with that.
This fallacy that all PC games will end up on Xbox systems is completely false. MS abandoned the PC platform years ago for the Xbox console but now wants to come back to support the platform again and expects everyone to bend over for them. Not going to happen.
They are so far removed from PC gaming it's not even funny anymore just sad.
It...
Not gonna happen. Star Citizen is funded by PC gamers to the tune of $143 million to date. You want a game like Star Citizen get Microsoft to dip into it's deep pockets and start developing a game like it.
Otherwise buy a gaming PC.
I won't be buying a PS4 just for one game. I'm currently watching a blind play through of Nioh on youtube so I won't be buying it if it does come to PC in the future. Win win for me :) Don't have to buy the console don't have to buy the game.
I've seen many people on consoles begging for PC games as well. Currently it's PS4 gamers begging for Conan Exiles (which I'm currently playing on PC) even though Sony doesn't support early access ga...
You'll be waiting for a year or 2. It's only just been released into Early Access on PC. I think Funcom said they'll be in EA for a least a couple of years if not more depending on how fast development goes.
Release date - December 16, 2013 (steam early access) - that's how long. Too long.
What's the difference between unfinished Early Access games and unfinished AAA games? Nothing.
We've been getting unfinished games from all parts of the gaming industry for years. From indies to AAA publishers. No excuses for it from any of them.
You either finish the game and sell it or you don't release until it's done. You don't charge a premium for the alpha/beta version and call it Early Access or AAA.
The games...
Tariffs go both ways. What the US exports will be taxed as well if this is the way Trump wants to deal with the world.
This is not going to be pretty for world trade if USA becomes protectionist like the EU is now.
I just wonder which 3rd party game MS will try to acquire to replace Scalebound. I hate E3 as a PC gamer as Sony or Microsoft always try to buy exclusivity rights for one or two games I'm interested in which was already coming to PC before E3.
MS are getting desperate at this point and it's inevitable they'll buy timed or full exclusivity to bulk up their games lineup for E3.
The kick in the teeth for Microsoft is Nier Automata is coming to PC (supposedly a MS platform according to console gamers) as well.
I have no sympathy for MS. They try to destroy or cancel everything they touch.
MS should just stick to what they know which is corporate software and bow out of the gaming industry if they can't be bothered to invest in it in any way, shape or form.
VR is still a niche market. I don't think any game developer has made any money on their investment into VR yet. The numbers are too small so until that changes it's not going anywhere.
Does VR have the stamina to last waiting for the tech to become more affordable to the mainstream in the next 3-5 years? Time will tell but I don't see any company making money producing products for VR in the short term.
You need 10's of millions of VR dev...
It's 4 player coop not a pseudo MMO like The Division so unless your friends abandon you the player base won't suddenly deteriorate.
I haven't heard anything about a PvP multiplayer yet for the game and it releases in March.
Fallout 4 took 6-7 years to be developed. Star Citizen is on year 4+ so we have 2-3 years before you can start bitching about how long the game takes to develop.
Unless you want to start complaining to Bethesda because their games are taking too long as well. I mean shouldn't we be on Elder Scrolls 6 and 7 by now considering game development only takes 1-2 years according to you and many others :)
Yeah they are going from Cryengine to Cryengine. Such a change in engines. How ever will they do it? :P
From what I've read they are combining Lumberyard and StarEngine and creating a "super" engine which will cater to both Amazon and CIG going forwards.
Lumberyard has the technologies for creating massive multiplayer titles with support from Amazon's massive Cloud computing servers (AWS) and Twitch streaming. Starengine has the graphica...
We have hundreds of games coming out on PC each month. Just because consoles only have 5-10 games each month and you only stick to what you know like AAA games or big budget indie games.
Expand your horizons and you might just find some amazing games out there on console and PC instead of just sticking to the usual suspects of AAA gaming.
I'd rather play a good F2P or indie game than the trash we get from a lot of AAA publishers.
No...
I don't even use Geforce Experience any more. It's a useless program which now requires you to register and login in to use it at all.
Good one nvidia this is one way to push people to AMD for their graphics cards instead of yours :)
Denuvo DRM hasn't increased sales at all. On some games it's actually detrimental to sales as those people who may have bought a particular game aren't going to now due to the addition of Denuvo.
It all comes down to the publishers if they think it's worth it. I don't see a spike in increased sales so a lot of the time it isn't worth it I think.
I think half the time it's just the company placating the shareholders so their games are per...
GR Wildlands is 4 player coop game. It's nothing like The Division. It's quite sad that people put down games when they are like other games they didn't like.
Every space game is supposedly going to fail like NMS or every open world combat game will fail like The Division.
Judge the game on it's own merits not ones that have come before it.

And DayZ is still in Early Access. There hasn't been a survival game that's in Early Access that's been completed yet.
Early Access can be a good thing if the developers are trustworthy and try to finish their game in a timely fashion. Only a few developers are like that. Most of the Early Access games have been abandoned or are stuck in Early Access blackhole never to be completed such as DayZ or H1Z1 to name 2.
I don't take any review of so called "professional" reviewers seriously now as they seem to all have an agenda and think graphics is everything and not gameplay.
I am very much looking forward to playing Styx: Shards of Darkness later today on PC.
This game is a true stealth game like Thief (1998 PC version not 2014) and is a most welcome return to an open world stealth game with no hand holding. It's a very open game so experimenting an...
