Will Origins be on Steam, or will the game be exclusive to Origin?

it's a ubisoft game, so it'll be on uplay

it'll probably be on steam just like the other games, but it'll require uplay on top of steam. just look at how unity and syndicate work.

Dark Messiah of Might & Magic is an underrated gem of FPS, using the fantasy setting very well instead of guns and modern equipment. Lot of fun can be had using ice on the floor then an explosive blast to make enemies fall to their doom as just one example. Stabbing always works too.

I love that game, and I played the inferior Xbox 360 version. Gameplay was fun and the level design was great. I also like the different classes you can choose, because they really change the way you play.

The main series, Heroes of Might & Magic, are okay to great strategy games depending on which number entry you try out. All board based lining up of units and choosing what order to fight, which of your heroes goes best against the line up of your enemies, and this can be a lot of fun to figure out.
If you want to give one a try V I think is the easiest and most straight forward to get into with a more straight forward learning curve.You can find out if you like the series with that.

Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes looks somewhat like Heroes of Might & Magic, but it's actually a puzzle game rather than a strategy game. It's far more about just figuring out the best order to get the best results, move combos, and and just figuring out how things work.
It's not a long game and some of it's roots as a handheld title show up in the PC version, but I think it's a lot of good fun and worth checking out for any puzzle fan.

Thanks, but I was talking about the mainline series, not the heroes one.

Watching that Origins vid

Why bother using "4k" if the detail settings are on medium?

Ultra 1080p that sucker

Ever since post WinXP or some such when Microsoft killed hardware sound I get additional audio latency. Sometimes it can get very noticeable in games with lipsync. I wonder how much the engine factors into it.

I killed the audio processing shit on my old Xi-Fi for some improvement. My USB headphones are a separate driver and they also have the latency. I guess I could kill the surround there too.

Just doesn't look great to me

Also the lip syncing is way off

Haven't watched the footage I was just basing it off my own experience. If I have to drop a game down from 1440p there's a good chance I just won't even play it. Sub-native res almost never looks good.

I've been looking at gaming laptops recently and there actually seem to be quite a few of them that actually seem good. Excluding for battery time of course.
