edit: wrong thread popped up, whoa, i'm retarded

Indeed, that's what I told him. He said he shot a dozen or so and it wasn't doing dick. I'll have to test it out myself later.

They may have nerfed poison arrows. I told a friend of mine about the archer cheese and he said his poison arrows weren't doing any damage over time.

I got lucky with Capra in that I inadvertently figured out how to cheese him by falling off the archway and mashing the shit out of my controller while squealing like a girl. Fuck those archers on NG+, though. Most things in Dark Souls can be analyzed by staying back and just patiently...

Cool, will have to check it out later. There's going to be an insane amount of RPGs released next year. I hope this one isn't ignored because of all the bigger releases.

I always assumed that mouse acceleration was an artifact from sloppy console porting so it is a little baffling in this case. Maybe it's something built into the engine that they have to remove? Which still doesn't explain why such a ridiculously horrible version of acceleration exists by...

I will almost always buy the meaty story-based DLC for the Bioware and Bethesda RPGs I play because I invest so much time into those games I can't abide "missing" anything. I do see all kinds of terrible shit released (horse armor's modern equivalent) that I'd never touch but that's not very...

And as fun as it would be to see all the major publishers burn, if it's just EA then I don't think we'll have made any progress. As if Activision needs to have its position bolstered.

I think I played Rebel Assault 1 or 2 with a joystick and it kept me somewhat entertained as a kid who didn't know any better. Plus you're right, games back then had a much lower bar to hurdle and as someone whose parents bought a Mac it's not like a had a lot of choice in what I played...

If your budget is so small that you're going to put your devs Skype call in as the voice acting you might want to rethink releasing a trailer to the public.

Goddamnit Sean, I ALMOST CAVED but I know that the usual asian video game aesthetic turns me off and I'll just end up annoyed as fuck with the system. I also realize that this locks me out of a lot of cool RPGs but there's not much I can do about it. I haven't been able to get into a JRPG (aside...

Their strategy is pretty clearly to stay even in NA and win every other region they won last generation, which necessitates not delaying their releases in those friendly regions to the same degree they can get away with in Japan.

I don't think Sony has released hard numbers to NPD for quite some time. I think it had something to do with Vita or PS3 numbers (though they didn't admit it) and I imagine it'd look silly if they started doing it now simply because they're selling a ton of PS4s. Anyway, while the...

It's not. If a game I've paid for is prompting me to buy more shit while I amplaying the game, it's irritating as fuck. Like that retarded BUY DLC LOL NPC in the camp in Dragon Age: Origins. If the only time I encounter your microtransactions is when I am poking around in your storelooking to...

Spiritual successor to... oh, you mean it is the sequel to Wasteland 1, which served as inspiration to the Fallout series. I hate to be that guy but damn. Really appreciate the screenies, tho. Thanks man.

There's no way FO4 isn't being worked on right now. Whomever the Zenimax source is, he's wrong. These games take too long to produce and it's not like Bethesda's Skyrim guys have anything else to work on right now. Given the usual release schedule I'd expect FO4 to hit next year.

I'd say forums need a sarcasm meter but then we'd miss out on all this fun.

Pics or GTFO. Go hit up bigfoot enthusiasts if you want to sucker someone with your tales of in stock PS4s.

Sony is in business to make money, not give you backwards compatibility at a loss. They've done the whole "sell people hardware at a huge loss" thing and it crushed them. If you want to play PS3 games then buy a PS3 from some kid on craigslist for a hundred bucks. There are tons of them out there.

Is there a reason you're spazzing out or is thisnormalfor you?

I believe the economy in the game is unchanged so you aren't putting any more time into the game than you would otherwise. The microtransactions are there to soak those with disposable income who must have everything now now now.

Yeah, I have RDR for Xbox, but I think his point stands. We are talking about a relatively small pool of titles that you'll be able to play on your PS4 anyway.

The PS3's wacky architecture is why we didn't see a notable difference in graphics quality until the latter part of an extended console generation. A dev friend of mine who's worked on a bunch of AAA titles said he'd be surprised if emulation ever happens because of the amount of horsepower...

Tomb Raider is coming to current gen consoles. I think I already played the "definitive edition" on PC but I'm still really tempted to pick it up for PS4.

Dude seems angry. I'd be happy if Bungie went back to their roots instead of churning out yet another console shooter but I don't think there's any chance of that happening. I haven't played Oni in a while. I wonder how well it holds up.

Morrowind definitely feels incredibly dated. You can pretty it up but the underlying tech is (relatively) ancient and you can see the seams where modders have stitched things together. I'm looking forward to this since I missed Morrowind at release for some reason.

I think most of us understand that launch titles (which also shipped for last gen) are not going to be optimized like they will be in the not too distant future. It's ok, though, you'll always have Rivals.

Looks like those three carries did McFadden in again. Stick a fork in him, he's done. While not quite in JaMarcus territory, that's $16,224.32 per rushing yard and $2,222,731.48 per TD.

What ever happened to Company of Heroes 2?

I believe this is the "Gabe will inevitably suffocate in a mountain of cash" theory.

I'd agree on SimCity except when I saw the shoebox sized maps they were giving us to build on I kind of knew that one was going to be shit. It was just a matter of how big a pile it would be. I want to say Shadowrun Returns but only in terms of scope. I wish they'd had the funding for a...

I'm pretty sure From will release it for next gen, too. It'll be like GTA V in that everyone knows it's coming (to PC) but no one will admit to it until it's announced.

Yes, please. Agnostic versions of Dark Souls 2, The Division and The Crew would be instant buys. It'll never happen but one can dream.

It looks like they're out of stock again already? Unless you want to pay $850 for one from an online retailer.

Agreed and I'm glad they're returning to the RPG genre. This one may be isometric but it looks like it'll be full of the usual quirky Larian humor they pack into these things. I just have my fingers crossed that the co-op combat works out since it's hard to tell if it's going to flow very well...

FWIW, I believe Sony has said they break even after people buy two games for the console.

Meanwhile my buddy had some hilarious Kinect tales featuring fucked up profile recognition, but then the "works for me!" argument has always been a persuasive one.

Do people hate the Xbox or just Microsoft's hubris?

While I'm not sure how many sales are direct through Steam for your average AAA game, if they agreed to take 10% off their normal percentage (which is reported to be 30%) then we are talking $600k per million sales. They could be even more aggressive on this front so that it makes absolutely no...
