Quoting: Talon1024

Quoting: Penglinginstead of 3-point as the original hardware did, which typically makes these games look "off"

And this is what it looks like.

Might be because I'm on my phone, but I don't see the difference between your two screenshots of the jagged texture under the stairs.

Well, since I've put hundreds of hours into Backpack Hero, I guess this is an insta-buy from me! Looking forward to giving it a shot later!

Quoteit looks like a game you'll want to sink your teeth in deep

Never change, Liam. Never change.

Any bought this and tried Mythforce? I enjoyed the demo, but when I try this now, I just get a Fatal Error on launch, straight after the Epic Online Services install.


Such a shame if this is broken on Linux now, just after their big patch release that actually makes the game enjoyable (supposedly).

I'm gonna be that guy and point out that both Yakuza: Like a Dragon and Hi-fi Rush are encumbered by Denuvo DRM. Otherwise, I'd have bought this bundle. Actually, that's a lie - I'd have bought Hi-fi Rush on release if they hadn't put that keek on it. There are still, today, about 5 or 6 titles I'd have spent my money on if it wasn't for Denuvo - Monster Hunter Rise, Strange Brigade, Deathloop, Atomic Heart, Gotham Knights and a handful of JRPG games, like Octopath or Legend of Mana.

I'd probably have bought Far: Changing Tides too. It's a £15 indie with frequent £5 sales, so no idea what it's doing with Denuvo on it. I suppose that's the problem with Denuvo - this title will clear around 1.5M in revenue, and 15 months of Denuvo will cost them 350K, so they still clear £1.15M. But they'd have to be properly deluded to think that pirates would cost them over £350K in sales. But they still put Denuvo on there...

I've just bought this - will give it a try after work in a couple of hours.

Edit - well, it worked fine here. Hit the "Install" button, then clicked "Play", no issues, as you'd expect. No idea what's causing the issues for others.

Think I said before, but the PSN account requirement was clearly marked on the site page. Yes, they should have enforced it from day one, but it's been there since March, when I bought the game.

It's always been clear that a PSN account was required. The only thing changing now is that they're enforcing it. I don't even think you need to "sign up" for a PSN account - you just link straight through via Steam.

The people complaining about this (around 20 thousand review bombs so far) are the kind of people who probably complained about nGuard. And they'll keep playing, despite the negative review, no doubt.

This is a mountain out of a molehill. Entirely normal internet behaviour, of course.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyHmmm . . . so, 70 people, at $100,000 each, would be 7 million dollars. Mr. CEO gave himself a raise of 26 million dollars. I wonder where they could possibly have found the money to keep paying those people?

Yep. Absolute scum.

I enjoyed AO until I realised that there's a "cap" on what you can do solo. After a certain point, the only place the resources you need to continue crafting are in yellow or red zones and you can't realistically farm those zones solo. Well, yellow, kind of. Red, no way. Pure luck if you die or not - a lot of PvP players literally just wait around the resources hoping a solo player will come along so that they can kill them for their gear.

So, nice game, well thought out, but unless you're willing to become part of a guild and group up with warrior players for protection, crafting will end quite suddenly.

Which I wouldn't mind too much if there was decent PvE, but years after launch, the PvE was still crap. So much potential, but for solo players, look elsewhere.
