That article should just be 7 different pictures of explosions.
I love the internet as much as the next guy, but the world was a better place without it when we didn't know everyone's opinion on everything.
Ever try to give an answer to a group of passionate fans using less than 140 characters and trying to keep everyone happy at once?
No?
Me neither. But I'm guessing it is pretty hard to NOT sound like a dick sometimes.
Text only communication is hard to do without risk of being misinterpreted.
I agree he can sound like a jerk sometimes, but is that really what he meant, or just how we are interpreting it?
You guys are missing the point of my isolation comment.
I'm not talking about it regards to other players, I'm talking about it in regards to other people in your house.
The wife that is trying to get your attention or the kid or pet that is about to do something they shouldn't do and you can't see them at all to stop them.
Stuff like that.
What issues? I haven't had any, or really even heard about any.
I've said it a thousand times and I'll keep saying it.
VR is too "isolationist" to catch on as a mainstream product. You can't use it without being completely blocked out of the "real world".
No way to watch your kids or pay attention to your spouse or anything that might be important going on around you.
People are going to get this thing and then realize they are almost never going to have a chance to use...
Been saying the same thing all along. It is going to flop hard after the initial burst of excitement.
I think Oculus Rift will likely be supported more and for longer just due to the power of the PC platform, but I don't see it ever being a "must have" accessory.
I expect by the time the next console cycle starts that VR will be a distant memory.
dante, I assume you've checked your options, because that is something that can be disabled.
Otherwise I'm not sure what to suggest.
I use my Xbox One every single day and I haven't seen or had to wait for an update in months.
Sometimes I never even know that it was updated.
When are you running into updates that aren't happening on their own during standby?
Yes I played Witcher 3. I almost didn't finish it because I couldn't take the extreme boredom, but I pushed through.
I realize there are some choices to be made, but they just make such a tiny difference. The change in the way the fire spell works is the single biggest change in all of his skill trees.
See, the problem with it is that Geralt is Geralt, and that can't be changed. He uses a two handed sword and the same 5 spells, and that's i...
Kinkosek did you just honestly count "character skill builds" as a PLUS for Witcher 3?
What game were you playing? That is the WORST part about Witcher 3.
You start with every spell in the game. Combat at level 30 looks and plays almost identical to combat at level 1. Witcher is terrible as an RPG. It tells a neat story and the graphics are pretty but it's a boring game with almost no character advancement.
I don't know ...
I would never put Witcher 3 anywhere even close to a conversation about game of the year. I wouldn't even call it game of the week.
It's the weakest RPG I've played in many years. Terribly boring.
But hey, that's just one man's opinion. I know a lot of people loved it, I just can't for the life of me figure out why.
I don't mean to say that those aren't bugs. They totally are.
But they aren't really hampering my experience, is all I'm saying.
One time I needed to trade something with my follower and she was on the roof, so I had to fast travel and then fast travel back to get her down. That's the biggest inconvenience I've had from a "bug" so far.
In a hundred hours, with a game that has this much going on at once, I&#...
It all depends on how fast you play, Grap.
At the 30 minute mark I wasn't even IN the vault yet, because of how long it took me to create my character.
It was well over an hour until I was done exploring everything in the vault.
On the flip side I had a buddy online that started at the same time and he was already level 2 long before I ever made it outside.
Yeah I think I spent over 20 minutes on the character creator. lol
Wow, I'm on Xbox One and have been playing non-stop. I have over 90 hours in it and haven't had a single issue, save for goofy stuff like a Brahmin appearing inside a house in sanctuary or my follower getting on the roof somehow.
No glitches, crashes, nothing.
Spoilers in article headline.
Maybe not through everything.
Not saying I would NEVER use a gun.
I played Fallout 3 with a sneaky melee focused character and got through it just fine.
I don't need to play on the hardest difficulty to have fun either, so if I have to play on easy to make it work, then that's ok by me. :)
There is one thing above all that makes Fallout, and almost any other RPG, better than Witcher.
In Fallout, I can be whoever I want to be, and play any way I want. This time I'm a badass guy that likes to shoot everything with laser rifles and go in guns blazing. Next playthrough I might be a stealthy ninja that uses melee weapons. After that maybe a girl that uses luck and persuasion more than her fighting skills.
In Witcher, I'm Geralt. Period. ...
Just get both consoles then you don't even have to worry about any of this crap.
It's a shame to only own one console nowadays anyway.
And don't give me that "It's not worth 300 bucks for 1 or 2 games" crap. If it's worth throwing a fit about it, it's worth buying the console to avoid having to worry about it.
And you might just find another game or two that you like that you never would have tried otherwise...
