Oh hell yeah I'm getting in on this.
I'm certain this will change valve's mind
I rarely use reviews seriously unless it's for smaller indies
#partoftheproblem
Was it always allowed to review games without playing them?
All Valve games become overwhelmingly negative.
All PC gamers and media scorch Gaben with questions at every event he does going forward indefinitely. The community backlash continues growing to unprecedented heights.
One day Gabe gets tired of all the shit and decides to finally make Half-Life 3.

Even though it says 0.0 for Dota I techincally have like a minute on the game (my profile shows 0.1)

Your PC is probably too powerful, play in a crappy laptop like me and it won't crash.

that wasn't what i meant though. for the record, i don't think the zelda games are rpg's, even though i think breath of the wild checks almost all (highly subjective) when-should-a-game-be-considered-an-rpg boxes.
but i was specifically wondering why you (and many others, at least on gaf) think zelda 2 is an rpg, but somehow the others aren't... the only thing zelda 2 has, that other zelda games don't, is a (mind you, very shallow and basic) level up system.
I finished DmC today. I enjoyed playing that game and story wasn't that bad. i mean twist at the
was lame but overall it was ok. Level design was ranging from awesome to average but gameplay was ok. I was kinda bored a bit near the end but that was my fault because i almost didn't bothered to learn new moves. All in all DmC is good hack&slash game n my opinion and if you like that genre and you haven't played it yet i think that you will enjoy it.

No, GTA5 doesn't have garbage ass unskippable cutscenes every time you step forward.
Is that what you meant?

Review bombing made a hUUuuUUUuge impact on their financials for Rockstar with GTA 5 and that whole "Modding fiasco" I mean they only counted it as one of their most profitable months ever.
My take on it was that It was mostly just people who never bothered doing a review in the first place, and then when they went "Oh okay we'll actually make sure single player mods are fine." Most of those brigade reviews? Those people were too lazy to change or remove them.
The whole review system in general is stupid it consists of some person makes a funny one that gets glued to the top, then a useful one maybe, GAM IS KNOT GUD VRY BAD with 10 minutes of play time, then someone with 2k hours saying "Its alright" with 200 funny button clicks on it
It's barely above youtube comments at this point

The original Assassin's Creed?
The twist is still at the end, it's just so predictable that you figure it out in 5 minutes

no it's not, it's at the end. sure, it's painfully obvious unless you really had to be sleeping throughout the story, but the confirmation is still near the end
unless i'm forgetting another twist, getting
betrayed by al mualim
Plenty? At different points of the game, at that. And it happens in books and movies too. There's even games with multiple plot twists happening at different points of the narrative. I mean, it's nothing new?

Oh. Well in that case I guess it would just be looking at the time period the game came out in. These days yeah the RPG aspect of Zelda 2 is pretty minuscule but when it came out it fit more in line with being an RPG.

Actually I meant the
joker
Wasn't that revealed pre release though?
It was so weird how hard Ubisoft tried hiding the Animus bs in the OG Assassin's Creed, and then Kirsten Bell (?) accidentally spilled the beans in an interview or something. And then it's there from the opening five minutes.
also Max Payne 3's very existence will haunt me to the end of my days. why. why did it have to be so.
if there's one country with an economy worth emulating, it's Greece

I don't think so.
They can be in different places. In this game it happened there.
And for AC1 Animus twist, yeah that was never revealed before game release i think.

That reminds me what was your FPS like? 60 FPS consistent? Was it among the very few AAA-like games that didn't ran trash on your rig ;P
I just got a crossbow
This game just became 200% more awesome
It starts slow but I am liking the rwards I am getting.

It runs ok on my rig, got some screen tearing but I'm used to it by now...
And yeah, great game, enemies are a bit too bullet spongier but I like it.

Danganronpa Another Episode is 30% off right now on Steam, 37% if you own the first two games. Time for me to cave in I guess.

Looks like Games 3 and 4 are getting hit with the Trading Card Confidence Threshold.
Eh. I don't mind, as my pages will still say cards.

People realize that while you can mess with Valve, you certainly can't mess with Varoufakis.
He's on the highway to Hellas.

I liked it. The TV sections are...kind of bad (I ended up skipping most of them and just going for a recap) but the game itself is pretty good, and very "Remedy". Steam says I played it for 11 hours, which might include some pause time. Around 9-10 hours sounds about right to me -- I took my time with it, though. It'll be longer if you actually watch the 20-30 minute TV "episodes".
As a Remedy fan I enjoyed it, although it certainly felt weaker than Alan Wake or Max Payne. It's definitely worth a shot if you liked Remedy's previous work.

The sad thing is someone will make the same statement and will actually be serious. I'm totally not going to the gaming side when November rolls around. The amount of gloating, toxic and idiotic fanboyism that is going to go on over there when comparisons start coming out will make my head spin.
Also the Danganronpa V3 Demo was really fun. Definitely a step up graphics wise from 1 and 2. Ran pretty well at 4K/60, only thing is the reticle was a little weird in that it wanted to center on the screen a few times and made it somewhat hard to shoot truth bullets at times but was fine 98% of the time. The minigames were also pretty interesting and hope they never get as bad as 2 got at times. The sound mixing was straight up garbage though. The music would start drowning voices out and would lower and raise at strange intervals. The music was so great though that I didn't care enough to change it in the menus.

Yeah, definitely. Thankfully, they're adjustable.

Yo for Dark Souls do people still use Durante's mod?
Really interesting thing from AC Origins that shows thing that you really couldn't even imagined in previous AC games. It is about hidden treasure so if you don't want to spoil it don't watch

Beat the Danganronpa demo. Not bad. Some new tweaks while being more of the same. I have no intention of playing D3 though until I watch the anime and play Despair girls though. Also going by the earlier comment I had about the designs. I do agree now with Hektor that characters do "look" different. But eh reusing of faces is getting really confusing. I'm starting to feel like I have Prosopagnosia when playing the Danganronpa games.
I do see that Despair Girls is on sale right now....But I think i'll wait. I want it for more that 15-16 range.

Company puts out new games they want to do and people love.
Spoiled brats whine it's not the one they wanted. Rather of had the same old franchise continued.
Valve has been 100x times more interesting every time a new IP has come from them.
But the best Valve games are Portal 2 and Half Life 2 Ep2.
I don't even know what new IP are you talking about. Their last new one was Alien Swarm wasn't it?
This game came out on EA. Too bad it only has Chinese and Japanese right now. English will come later.

As annoying as it is i don't think it's going to hurt the game in the long run as the game already had a bunch of negative reviews that were basically just jokes. Let the people vent.
It's better than sending death threats...
If it does however end up using a predatory model i'll probably still play it but i won't be buying anything.

The biggest issue with Valve and people wanting Half Life 3 is they're in the perfect spot to do it. They have tons of money and could literally get anyone on board to work for them. Hell unless they somehow made a monstrosity of a budgeted game they'd more than likely make a profit too.
Valve and Half-Life is in the exact opposite spectrum than say capcom. Who has only so much money and resources thus having to spread themselves thin and unable to really do the things people want from them. Valve could do all of that and more. They're just stingy as hell. They're riding their gambling style service until new laws make them think of something else.
