Suppose They Gave a Stream and Nobody Came

 

[A Fish Aficionado]

The Wither music sounds like acoustic Blind Guardian.

 

[Death Metalist]

I don't get the washed out comments, looks fine to me? Then again I never played The Witcher 3 so, yeah.

I never notice anything chat complains about

 

[brainzelda]

Does the new update let you compare to equipped gear straight from the loot table off dead guys? This always felt like the most obvious missed UI feature to me.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Alex made a good point there. I agree with him about wholeheartedly.

 

[Felix Lighter]

New graphics card? There is a setting in the Nvidia Control Center to use the Full Output Range for RGB, if it's washed out, that setting could very well be the culprit if their gear is expecting that.

 

[yami4ct]

The kind of people that complain in chat are the same people that bitch about The Witcher 3 'downgraded' graphics.

It's not worth paying attention to.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

Oh damn, the UI should have been like that since day 1.

 

[Hot Coldman]

How come Vinny's by himself but in the studio?

 

[The Dear Leader]

Novigrad while it's raining, the ultimate framerate test, seems to be running well.

 

[Concrete Charlie]

How come Vinny's by himself but in the studio?

Isn't this question really about Brad?

 

[Keyser Soze]

How come Vinny's by himself but in the studio?

He probably had to take part in production meetings earlier in the day. I believe West/East hold one on the first work day of the week to plan content going forward... also E3 is coming up... more meetings.

 

[def sim]

Watched the stream on mobile for a bit to see if it's actually washed out or not. It certainly looks like it.

Nvidia drivers default to limited color space. That's probably it?

Edit: oh Felix mentioned it

They bought a new card?

 

[Teddified]

My power surged and my computer restarted....fine I'll watch the stream instead.

 

[shwimpy]

How come Vinny's by himself but in the studio?

He's testing new streaming equipment.

 

[Keyser Soze]

They bought a new card?

CNET probably have play forts built out of them. They stole one

 

[KingKong]

they really need to find someone who knows how streaming works. perhaps a random 15 year old?

He went to work at Kotaku. Pity.

Aw

Nice of Bakalar to hook them up if so.

I am afraid to go into the "Build a PC" thread due to too much lingo getting tossed my way, but now is a decent time to build a PC, right?

The 1070 is close, RAM is cheap.

What's the situation with CPUs?

Little late, but I'd suggest going into that thread. Everyone there is extremely helpful and patient, and they even have premade builds that tell you exactly what to get if it's too technical. Helped me put together my PC and I barely knew how to open one before this, let alone assemble it

 

[Death Metalist]

As always, Witcher looks that fantastic game that I just don't want to play.

Spoiler

I rarely play RPG's.

 

[Volotaire]

Fully recommend the Build a PC thread, very helpful posters in there. With regards to CPU's, there is a refresh of the current 14nm architecture called Kaby Lake coming for late 2016. It will be a marginal leap because it will be the 3rd 14nm iteration.

Well

I don't know what I expected Velvet Sundown to be

But it wasn't that.

Did you just watch the QL or play it for yourself? It's great.

Alex's snarky comments and pop cultural references are on point this time.

 

[JonCha]

It's less that it's shaken up the genre and more that it applies Blizzard's design principles to it. Stuff like not surfacing a direct k/d ratio and only highlighting good play is a really interesting approach to take.

Overwatch isn't really shaking things up, it's just taking a lot of the ideas going around right now in terms of making competitive shooters friendlier and doing a really good job handling those features. Combine that with good character designs and Blizzard's innate popularity and it's not a surprise it took off.

A lot of what Overwatch is doing is a lot like what Splatoon did for Third-Person shooters. It's obviously not directly inspired by it, becasue it's been in development for a lot longer, but it's definitely where the genre is headed in general.

Good points here. I haven't actually played or watched a lot of the game so I'm kind of going on the buzz the game is getting, so my statement may have exaggerated a bit.

Coming from a Halo 2/3 background primarily, the non-emphasis on k/d and contributing the objective is a godsend. It completely changes the mentality of the game for everyone playing.

I've been considering picking it up on PC4 but it seems like the PC community is going to be the most active. I'll be interested to see if any of the GB crew stick with the game for a while given their admittance to always moving onto the next game.

 

[Death Metalist]

His staring is on point as well.

 

[Twin Tails]

yay vinny witcher

 

[EdReedFan20]

His staring is on point as well.

I've said this before, but that wall behind Vinny bugs me. I wish it was higher.

 

[ratcliffja]

These streams make me glad I never played any of the Witcher games.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

I got my bag! Thanks again for the input.

It goes well with my headphones.

 

[Exterminieren]

Just the Quick Look, although I'm downloading it now. I was expecting some transcendent, psychadelic, overtly druggy kind of a thing.

I can't imagine that thing can still be that perversely beautiful after two years. I'd be surprised if it hadn't dried up.

[KingKong]

Online shooters where you arent mercilessly flamed by teenagers are not worth playing imo

[Keyser Soze]

I have one Broken Age and one Her Story Steam Key to give to Bomb GAF. One per person.

Post the name of the developer of the one you want and I will PM it to you.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

Thanks! I think so too.

What bag? Looks great!

Last week I posted in here asking if that new work bag looked worth it. Got some feedback and bought it, arrived yesterday.

I wouldn't mind messing around with Her Story. That game has always sounded real neat.

The dev is Sam Barlow.

 

[Death Metalist]

This DLC turned into Bordello of Blood.

Edit: Oh snap, Geralt is a penny collector.

I sent it. It's a pretty cool few hours to play around with!

 

[daydream]

not enough Dennis Miller or Thin Lizzy

 

[skynidas]

pew pew

 

[yami4ct]

Since I just took a Her Story key, I'll put myself at the back of the line here.

If no one else ends up wanting Read Only Memories, though, I'd take it.
