Darksiders 2 DE doesn't look too bad, shadows are kind of blocky and the game doesn't run too well on a 760gtx, it still stutters a bit with everything at low so I turn the graphics back on and locked it at 50hz/fps with some drops in some areas, but it's tolerable.

Would be nice if there's a camera mod because it's way too zoomed in and everything is like gigantic, with the moves where you dash back and forth all you see are biceps all over the screen.

They went to valhalla

They live, they die, they live again!

Wonder when Atlus will open the floodgates on PC. They're awfully late to the party. Their parent SEGA is all up in this, Atlus has to be cooking up something special. Persona 3+4, all PS2 SMTs, all rotting on legacy platforms. Vita shmita.

I can only write time and again what dirty, filthy things i'd do to get Persona on PC.
 
word. I'd love to see a daredevil game by rocksteady

batman has run it's course

WB isn't going to have their premiere DC comic video game studio working on a marvel property. They did it with Lego, sure, but why pay a license fee to a competitor when you could have a game done with your own license?

The closest thing to a Marvel Arkham game was that Captain America game that Next Level did for the consoles last gen and, sadly, that never got a PC port of any sort.

As an aside, I bought the prequels on blu ray right now because the star wars thirst is real. I don't even like those movies but i figure they would be cool things to have running in the background while i do chores.

It would be great to see it on PC, I'm pretty sure it's not on the level of the Arkham games but it looks like that cheesy kind of game you play over one weekend and end up enjoying it for what it is.

Seeing SEGA bringing Japanese games to PC, I think Persona - at least older ones at first - are a good bet. Maybe even next year. Can't see P5 coming for at least 2 years though.

finished tales from the boredlands ep 1

story was great, but i can't help but man the playing in this game feels like crap. the qtes, timing on choices, the whole cursor thing, the extremely restricted areas in which you walked in, using that visor thing was super awkward, the really long action scenes, etc.

it feels really weird to play something that feels this dated when lis did choose-a-ton gameplay so much better and it didn't really do anything special or new, just gave you more freedom and made interacting work only with things you're facing. obviously rewind helped a lot but you know, basic stuff like walking is just way more enjoyable there

other than that i love totb's story and characters, they're all a lot of fun and i'm probably gonna burn through all of them in this long weekend. also the theme song is badass

So basically like EVERY TT game after they quit Sam & Max?

Lego handles the licensing. TT games doesn't really get much of a choice in the matter.

Yea Telltale games arent for me. I tried walking dead but I just couldnt get into it. It is not much of a game as it is a miniseries. i chose to just watch the real walking dead (which is probably worse story/acting wise)

i don't really play many telltale games so i couldn't tell you

the two i've played before (walking dead and monkey island) were really different from each other so..
 
ITT blanket statements galore

in this case tho I agree

I'm pretty sure I own all of the TT games but after walking dead I just can't seem to find any interest in playing the rest.

If you haven't played the Borderlands one and have it, I seriously urge you to.

I'm saying this as someone who isn't all that wowed by Telltale games and gave up on Walking Dead. I'm pretty sure TotB will wind up in my GOTY top 5. At least, for PC.

Universal GOTY is much easier to do:
Splatoon 5 times.

Just had to use a glitch to get around a bug that was said to have been fixed in The Witcher 3. I really like the game but CDPR please.
 
Tales of the Borderlands is legit. Made me even get a teeny bit watery in the eyes at a point or two. Possibly the best Telltale game outside of TWD season 1.

Your choices do actually matter in the game and how the game's diamond of choices comes together at the end feels much more rewarding that the average TT game.

I really hate when somebody asks me to help him/her and says it will call me tomorrow and never calls. Then i call them and they say that they can't do it today and it will call me tomorrow and again never call. -.-

blanket statement much?

road to perdition, hellboy 1 + 2, batman begins + the dark knight, sin city and 300 were all good.

also what marvel is doing with netflix originals has some creative depth.

I'll give you Dark Knight, but that is mainly on the back of Heath Ledger. That movie is weirdly bloated when you rewatch.

Clearly, you have not seen Gnardians of the Galaxy.

I'd link it, but, obviously NSFW.

Guardians is a lot of fun to watch.

I'm actually considering Street Fighter V on PC instead of PS4, now that it has cross-play. Yet I'm not entirely sure. Do I really have to pay €60 on Steam up front, or will they charge me on release date?

Road to Perdition
This is based on a comic book? Woah I never knew that. I really liked the film.

Steam charges you now but you can get a refund at any time before it comes out.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.

never help anyone!

that's good to hear, i get the impression none of what i did in ep1 mattered a whole bunch but tbh i wasn't really expecting any different. maybe later but it doesn't seem like the game that's gonna be like CHOOSE WHO LIVES AND WHO DIES which is very refreshing for me as someone that felt twd was a bit much with that crap

The main reason i'll probably go PC for SFV is that I have a Saturn USB pad that I would like to use instead of having to buy a new pad that's PS4 compatible. So if you consider that there might be a hidden cost with getting it on the PS4 in that you might need to pick up a new stick or pad, well, it makes the PC version look more appealing in comparison

Do it! PC is the only way!

I pre-ordered in full on both platforms because I have a problem
