Considering NSO is required to play online on all retail games that cost money, if that is what you want to do then you really have no other options. Them adding these old games is a nicety -- I just have a hard time believing that it is what is driving people to sign up for NSO.
So now we will have to buy the expansion in order to get the game we were originally promised, or what? Until they fix the broken systems in the base game I don't want to hear talk of expansion. Maybe they should speak more to what their plans are to actually fix this mess.
I kinda agree with DFs analysis: concluding that a loss of mass in the heat sink will lead to actually better cooling isn't founded in reason. More likely, the original heat sink for the PS5 was overkill and it was an area they could reduce costs without effecting performance. In the end if you get a new PS5 it is just as fine as the release ones because they are all operating within their specification limits.
I played the open beta weekend on PC for about an hour and, yeah, it is VERY true to the original and has the exact same look and feel with enhanced graphics. I dropped about 40 hours into D2 a year ago and so jumping back into this one I didn't have much interest in playing, and I was a little disappointed that there were not more QoL changes like making the controls more modern and providing more inventory space. It plays like an older game with good graphics. That being said, I'm c...
This remake is a great single player experience, and the split screen multiplayer features are fantastic. The online could be SO much more than it currently is, and the lack of LAN multiplayer is really disappointing. Also, sucks I can't setup my own dedicated server. 7/10
Idk, I think I might have a mental collapse if I play through the main story, the Thieves Guild, the Mage's College, the Dark Brotherhood, and the two DLC main quest lines ever again. Played this game to death multiple times already and just not interested in going back while so many other fine games go unplayed.
I'm digging the split-screen multiplayer support.
Wonder what is coming in the PS5 and Series S/X enhancements -- ray tracing?
There is also cross-play multiplayer. I'm really enjoying getting back into arena style deathmatches. This is a bigger deal for folks who want to play it on console, there isn't much new for PC players except for some slightly enhanced shadow effects (reminiscent of Doom 3 shadows).
This has been in the works for the past 2 years about, apparently, and previously it was announced that all currently planned PS5 titles weren't going away after the MS acquisition.
Lazy? There is a lot that goes into making a port like this. The crossplay Multiplayer code in-particular. This also includes 2 new mission packs along with the original 2.
High-Performance Intel Graphics is an oxymoron, but I wish it wasn't. We could really use more option than nVidia and AMD which it comes to high end graphics, so I'm rooting for them.
If not losing your job, being passed by for promotions and pay raises. Employee reviews become more critical.
"There's even a chance the Steam Deck could end up being a better-selling device eventually." -- maybe if Valve gets retail partners such as Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, Target, etc. Right now they are just looking to sell through Steam.
If the DLC is epic story focused, I'm interested. If it is just a land mass with more of the same side missions in a game filled to the brim with side missions, I'm a lot less interested.
I wonder how the discount will work with physical media.
Is a dedicated Windows App too much to ask from the creators of Windows?
I really enjoyed this game a lot, but felt that the main gameplay loops were all pretty boring by the time I got to the end of the game. If this ends up being just more of the same, I'm not sure I'll be getting it.
I want a PS5 and a Series X. Will that make me everyone's friend or everyone's enemy. You children need to grow up and stop this petty console war bs.
Honestly, these were two of the worse gamepad controller designs in console history, IMHO. I was excited for the SNES and NES controllers for NSO but I'll pass on these.
