Support NeoGAF

[Nabs]

It's an awesome game. Tried to get attention for the game when it was 2€ during the summer sale, but few listened.

I'm pretty sure you convinced me.

 

[Grief.exe]

I don't enjoy JRPGs like Final Fantasy, is YS for me? Guess I'll find out when I buy the bundle.

Asterbreed is cool looking though.

Ys isn't a JRPG, it just happens to be made in Japan. Really an action RPG. Super Castlevania IV in 3D.

 

[corrosivefrost]

I do not really get shmups. I tried playing Jamestown a while back, and it just doesn't do anything for me and I'm really bad at it.

Hmmm... pay $4 to give away a game wanted by many in SteamGAF and brighten someone's day then?

I'm trying to be an enabler here...
I mean, it's for charity, right?

It's an awesome game. Tried to get attention for the game when it was 2€ during the summer sale, but few listened.

The only PJ game that ever clicked for me was Sidescroller.
The rest? Well, Eden was okay, I suppose.
I do not have a high opinion of the Shooter games, that's for certain; I played them more than Monsters, but that's not saying much considering how much I do not like the visuals or core gameplay of Monsters.

 

[Vuze]

I'll wait for it to be in a decent Humble bundle before I buy it

Thinking about it... a Crytek Humble Bundle could follow soon lol

 

[Mono]

Witcher is becoming a decent name in America it seems...I don't know why they don't go ahead and get them translated for release over here.

They're working on it, very slowly it seems! \o/

 

[Turfster]

Thinking about it... a Crytek Humble Bundle could follow soon lol

But Cevat isn't humble at all...

 

[Jawmuncher]

Thinking about it... a Crytek Humble Bundle could follow soon lol

I've been needing Crysis 1 and Warhead for awhile now.

 

[Krusenstern]

Yennefer, at least in the released trailer, looks like the generic 3D models used to advertise old 3D modeling software.

She looked like described in the books. Or are you speaking of the face?

 

[Vazduh]

Thinking about it... a Crytek Humble Bundle could follow soon lol

100% of donations going to a good cause (Crytek)

 

[Knurek]

I do hope we get English translations of the last two Witcher/Ciri books soon. In a dream world they'd drop before Witcher 3 comes out, but that's unlikely.

Can't wait for fan outrage at the saga ending.
Without spoiling stuff, Sapkowski trolled his fans hard.

Posted? You can now play Battlefield 4 free for a week: https://www.origin.com/de-de/news/battlefield-4-game-time-free

Secret to success: put Steam keys for Crysis 2 vanilla behind the BTA wall and watch the money roll in.

 

[Divius]

It's an awesome game. Tried to get attention for the game when it was 2€ during the summer sale, but few listened.

I must have missed that, I would probably have picked it up for 2€

 

[Ventara]

The new Humble Bundle would be tempting if I didn't already have Ys Origin, which I still have yet to play (stupid me). As it stands, I'd much rather play Piceljunk Shooter on my Vita, so it's an extra $5 for Mitsurugi or $9 for Mitsurugi and Astebreed. I'll just stick to the first tier, unless Astebreed is amazing or something (don't know much about the game), then maybe I'll just do a Ys Orihin giveaway.

 

[Uzzy]

Where is Yennefer in those trailer? I totally missed her.
I mean, I saw a woman running during the pre-E3 trailer, when the king is speaking about a woman that returnet...is that Yennefer??? Because she has white hairs :S

There's a scene where Geralt is on a boat flanked by Triss and a black haired woman. That's almost certainly Yennefer.

Can't wait for fan outrage at the saga ending.
Without spoiling stuff, Sapkowski trolled his fans hard.

Isn't the ending stuff kinda explicitly spelled out in the games though?

No, this here on the right is Yennefer:

Okay Casimir, now that I look at here she really comes of as a generic 3D model.

Would have prefered the style of this fanart:

 

[BHK3]

It's like Contra with mechs?

What the hell? That's Cybernator!

 

[Grief.exe]

That is likely her considering the cutscenes from TW2

Oh, I think she was the girl you can romance in Witcher 2? Can't remember well, but she looks similar.

Yennefer has been missing throughout the story.

 

[derExperte]

Single-player too? How many GB is the game?

Go ahead, use your 168 hours of Game Time to complete the single-player campaign.

47,3GB on my drive but I have Premium, a big chunk are probably the add-ons.

still better than realplayer brah

Debatable. At least rp had the decency to bugger off completely, rotting somewhere in a remote cave, while qt is still roaming the earth, scaring small children and kittens from time to time.

 

[Krusenstern]

Oh, I think she was the girl you can romance in Witcher 2? Can't remember well, but she looks similar.

Nope, it's her first appearance in the game series.

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

can they even do a humble bundle without EA's help? unless humble is going to do a f2p bundle then i can't seen a crytek bundle ever happening.

also, it came to me this morning that the "tek" part of crytek is just a stupid way to spell tech. I always though it was just a cool german naming thing and never really thought about the tek part as anything but an abstraction until i drank my coffee this morning

 

[Chariot]

Man, give her a beard and she looks like Angry Joe's Inigo Montoya cosplay.

 

[Turfster]

It's kinda sad that Solarix probably won't make it.

 

[The Dear Leader]

Oh, I think she was the girl you can romance in Witcher 2? Can't remember well, but she looks similar.

You're thinking of Triss Merigold, that's Yennefer in the above pic.

 

[Mono]

Rofl, thanks now I'm never not unseeing that!

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Super Castlevania IV in 3D? Now I can't contain my hype. Just need to get to my desktop.

 

[Casimir]

She looked like described in the books. Or are you speaking of the face?

Holistically. It's more CDPR's realization of what is described. Compared to Geralt & Triss (and everyone from TW2 for that matter) her model looks off, like it was ripped from the promotional materials I saw years ago for an old 3D modeling program.

No, this here on the right is Yennefer:

[Succinct Verbosity]

I'm having a lot of issues running The Witcher on ANY setting, yet I can run Metro Last Light and Bioshock Infinite on high without a hitch. What's the deal?

I agree with you. Her face does appear pretty generic looking.

witcher 1? it should run fine these days on just about anything
w2? turn off ubersampling and you should be fine.

and yennifer looks fine. heck, if anything she looks TOO good compared to the other people in that scene. She looks like she's on another level techwise.

Which? The first or the second? What exactly are the issues?

yes securom is still in

[The Dear Leader]

Nope, I was thinking about Ves, I miss that romance in W2 and I can't remember well her model...hel, three years are passed already :l

Ah Ves what a fire cracker that one was lol.

Make sure Ubersampling is turned off.

50 huh, are those revoke-able?

 

[Succinct Verbosity]

Which? The first or the second? What exactly are the issues?

Oh, sorry... The Witcher 2. It seems to be running at an incredibly low framerate regardless of how I set it up. I have turned off ubersampling and all those extra bells and whistles and it is still really jittery.

 

[Mono]

One Way Heroics wins the award of most hideous menus! Yikes! Hopefully the game is good.

 

[derExperte]

Gods Will Be Watching got a big update, they listened to the complaints about too much randomness.

http://steamcommunity.com/games/274290/announcements/detail/239008198869341336

THE MERCY UPDATE

Three new difficulty levels with different approaches to gameplay, including two modes without RNG!

Puzzle Mode
All the challenge of Original Mode, but without random factors in play. If you want to remove the element of chance from the game, this is the mode for you.

Puzzle Mode Light
The easier version of the game that also removes random factors and chance. If you want to remove the element of chance and face easier puzzles, this is the mode for you.

Narrative Mode
The easiest mode and a way to enjoy the game as a narrative experience, without a heavy challenge.

Here you have an image which contains the feeling of the update[i.imgur.com]

AND MORE FIXES

- Added a fade in for the language selection so players don’t miss-click on different languages when starting the game.

- Achievement “BR4ND-0N” in Chapter 4 description fixed.

- BR4ND-0N now can count as sacrificed on Chapter 3.

- Chapter 6: You can now click on Claire after hitting Frank.
- Chapter 6: Claire doesn’t come back to life when you threaten his child.

- Chapter 1: Restarting the puzzle after the guards launching the grenade doesn’t break the game anymore.

- Localization fixes. Including the “Yeah, that glove can be a pain in the ass.” line in every language.

anyone need this?

 

[Snakethesniper]

So, I've won The Witcher Adventure giveaway, but I already got a key from SubZero before.
I tried the "nuke" thing for modbot but it doesn't work so I'll post the code here.
Quote to see.


If you take it please say it!
Obviously thanks to the original user

I like Triss and all, but Yen looks extremely beautiful.

Gods Will Be Watching got a big update.

And just like that I am redownloading my friends copy to try through Family Sharing.

It looks like Ultra SFIV is unlocking tonight.

I'm liking this level of community interaction from wbacon. These Dead Rising streams have been great too.

Oh, sorry... The Witcher 2. It seems to be running at an incredibly low framerate regardless of how I set it up. I have turned off ubersampling and all those extra bells and whistles and it is still really jittery.

Try setting the Maximum Pre-Rendered Frames for this game in the nvidia control panel to 1.

I like Triss and all, but Yen looks extremely beautiful.

Not really. Triss still looks better. CDPR needs to work on Yennefer's model some more.
