Yes mate my TV and other games are fine.
lol at "weighty" , its pure and simply delay... i've gotten sort of used to it now, i still hate it though, it puts a huge damper on the otherwise nice game.
To anwser your question about what game i played before: Destiny, yes, a 30 fps locked game with great responsiveness, no delay...
I hope you enjoy it man. I haven't even touched the story and I've been playing for over 5 hours just enjoying the scenery, killing orcs, fucking with power struggles.

Installed and been playing for a bit. as per usual with my rig I keep getting FPS drops all the time -_-
Can't seem to have a constant 60fps drops as soon as I start running

Are there story missions? Like cutscene - mission - cutscene - mission - cutscene - mission. Or all you do is running around, killing orcs?

You should watch the Giantbomb QL The nemesis system will step up your Fuckery
It is a proper game. Story , Side Content and the Nemesis system.
30 hours worth of content.
Absolutely. You can literally dominate one orc, have him move up the ranks and increase his power massively and then you can fight him.
If you go to the games page on the store and click on choose a version then select the free one the extras will download.
Is there only supposed to be 3 extra DLC with the PSN version?

It's pretty much the entire purpose of the nemesis system. I've only done maybe 4 story missions and spent 4-5 hours running around killing Orcs and powering up. There's this one hunter guy who's a total badass and always kills me though, he's super strong now =(
EDIT: Also that Dark Ranger skin is terrible. You just look like a generic cloaked guy.
It's definitely 30. I don't notice any weird fluctuations like in Infamous Second Son, and it's definitely not 60, so...
like i wrote, there is no option to select stuff. only overview / recommendtions.
Makes sense. I'm not as susceptible to the feeling or don't notice as much as you I guess. Destiny sure does feel fucking good @ 30 to me though. I can see the difference you mean in that regard for sure. I guess I thought they wanted it to feel that way. lol.
*rubs hands*
Excellent. No way to watch the QL since I'm at work for a long time but these all sound like exactly what I was hoping for.
Cool, I'm guessing motion blur is tricking people. I'm fine with 30 but I wish I hadn't gotten my hopes up for 60 based on earlier impressions.
I'm watching the GB Quick Look with one eye while doing work with the other. Brad & Dan briefly touched on the wraith mode, comparing it to detective mode or eagle eye mode - but also said you can jump off whatever without fear of taking damage when you are in wraith mode.
I'm curious, while in wraith mode are you essentially invisible? I'm ~15 minutes in and he's walked around a fair bit in wraith mode and no one has seemed to see him while doing that.

Can any orc become a Nemesis if they kill you, or only specific ones?

Just got my first vendetta mission. Didn't realise there was an online element beyond the leaderboards.
Any orc at all, even the peons.

This is what made Ryse stupidly easy.
I definitely feel the Souls influence with the combat difficulty and health system. No more regenerating health bars, Bungie!
It hides the horrendous looking hair, which is reason enough to equip.
Any orc. They get promoted to a named Uruk at that point and gain a place in the hierarchy.
Just watched some of the Giant Bomb quick look. Wow they really seem to love the game.
That's exact same with me. I am totally fine with 30fps w/motion blur but I kind of got my hopes up based no what everybody was saying. Still, it's very smooth and has a great camera-based motion blur implementation (haven't noticed any object-based motion blur but it may have it).

Only the first rung of guys, captains, and up I think. I've had randoms kill me and nothing happened. Maybe I'm not far enough in though.
Edit: Apparently any orc, huh.

Wraith mode is purely visual. Enemies have pretty poor awareness, so you can get away with a lot of non-stealthy movements, which is what's happening in the video.
There is proper stealth movement, and you can hide in bushes. Environment traversal (like climbing walls or walking rope, etc) are inherently stealthy, too. The yellow/orange triangles over an enemy indicate their awareness.

Has anyone skipped any cutscenes? I did one time just to get moving with progression. Overall the combat is entertaining. I came from hating LOTR because the MMO was so dull, but this has shown another side to the series. It you hate the MMO try this. You don't have to deal with running around searching for wool or helping out villagers with letter delivering.
They focus on a sandlot battleground which is really neat. The story is anything you make it IMO.

Seriously? That's a huge loss.
That's what GiantBomb's QL said...NO WHERE else it is mentioned. I wonder why?

The Nemesis feature in this game looks incredible. Pretty much everything looks pretty incredible but the Nemesis system in particular makes this seem much more like a next gen game than pretty much anything else so far this gen. So cool.

The devs said it was toned down. Maybe GB heard it is completely gone from the last gen versions ?

I know I've said this before but this has got to be one of my favorite walking animations of all time, seriously. The way the Dark Ranger cape bounces is hypnotizing. Going from those amazingly brutal-for-no-reason finishing moves straight into the walk is the stuff of legend.

Link?
Tell it you want to re-download. Essentially re-buy for free and they should show up. You don't have to re-download the whole thing.
Edit; Did it on the store site from my Mac.
It's still there, it's just not as expansive.
I meant moreso in reviews and recent stuff. They mentioned it before, over half a year, and never brought up again. And the fact that people are saying the Nemesis System makes the game amazing, makes it more surprising that no one is making it clear that the differences between the PS360 version and the PS4Xbone versions are more than cosmetic. That is the importance I feel of this situation.

I think is the most highly rated game by users I've seen to date (so far).. simply incredible reception!

We're hitting the point where the PS3/360 versions of cross gen games are going to be awful.

It shows up in my game but it's locked off for some reason...
I tried to make it clear in the OT that last gen versions are a whole different developer. There hasn't been a lot of information on those versions at all.
