The only problem I have with the questioning of PM is that it was basically pointless. Pathological liars (at least a lot of the time in my experience) don't believe they're lying. They actually believe the bullshit that comes out of their mouths. It's fascinating to watch and when the truth is pointed out to them, even in the friendliest of terms, they tend to not take it lightly. It's fascinating and depressing at the same time.

 

[Lomax]

Molyneux's capability to tell the truth has to be the sole focus, because otherwise he could simply deflect the question and avoid the issue entirely.

But it's ok! Because Molyneux has now confirmed what everyone should have known all along: that he's never told a lie. It's just that the truth changes depending on what needs to be told... I'm sure everyone understands that.

Honestly if someone had called him out like this five years ago, maybe the whole Godus fiasco wouldn't have happened at all. And apparently he told multiple people in the past few days "this is my last interview," so he clearly has some real issues will his perception of the truth. Someone needs to do a combination Molyneux as Obi-wan image saying "it was the truth, from a certain point of view."

The Karlby (Walnut) comes pre stained and waxed.

It's also a thin sheet of walnut over practical board.

eh. Ikea's shipping charges are pretty nuts and I don't have one close to me. Might be something worth looking into though.

The advantage of having one just up the road!

I built one from IKEA like that.

Really old pic. I need to take a new one.

Is That 74" long or did you cut it down?

Lords of the Fallen was pretty disappointing overall. If they are gonna copy Dark Souls, they shouldn't leave out key features (summoning) and they need to study a bit harder. Things that were poorly executed or designed:

-The combat
-The enemy placement
-The level design
-The bosses
-The lock-on system

If I wasn't hard up for some Souls gameplay, I don't know if I would have pushed through some of the more irritating segments. It a pretty world, but it's so small. It felt like two archstones (from Demon Souls) worth of actual real estate which totally destroys the sense of scale and supposedly epic nature of the story.

Fortunately for me, a friend took this one for the Family Sharing team. I'll have to make it up to him somehow in the coming months.

Hmm. i got the game from family sharring with my brother. Should i just uninstall it or just pull it through? i love the Souls game too

I imagine telling several journalists this contradictory truth is somehow leading up to his next amazing game. It is called the Trial, isn't it?

Thanks for the impressions.
I've been watching it have various deals and haven't bitten yet, -80% during Summer Sales might just be the right price for it.

Totally agree with you on this. I'm only a few hours into the game, but already I can tell that the stuff they flat-out copied from the Souls games are the best parts. Every area that they decided to go their own route, like with their strange magic system is simply not as good.

It's too bad as I was genuinely enjoying the first hour of the game, but it's been downhill from there.

The worst offender to me is the lack of variation among the enemies. In an early portion of the game, you can go off in a direction you're not supposed to and head down an area built for higher level characters, which is fine. However, when you get down there, it's filled with enemies that look identical to those you've been killing in 3 hits, but now have 10x the hp and damage.

[Alavard]

So what is your advice? I have the game on my wishlist, I was never convinced about it. I liked Demon's and Dark's 1 a LOT, I didn't like so much DS2, playing it only once (and I still need to buy the season pass too).
You suggest to totally skip this?

I suggest you watch a Let's Play of the first few sections of the game and maybe something from the middle to see if you like how it seems to feel. I'm hesitant to say which souls game it's closer to, but watching some videos should give you a better sense.

Since you already have it installed, I'd recommend playing a couple hours to feel it out for yourself. You'll have a good sense of the entire experience by the third boss or so.

They patched it? It still crashes a lot?

It's been patched a lot and I had zero crashes and zero glitches for the ~12 hours my playthrough took.

[Alavard]

I can tell you that I experienced no crashes when I played about a month ago (Intel/nVidia rig if that matters), but I also saw quite a number of people complaining about crashes in the Steam forums at the time.

There was a major stability patch introduced in December, but since I didn't play it before then, I can't compare to see how much that helped.

Molyneux made Fable out to be some sort of ES Oblivion type game. When I purchased/played it and saw how small in scope it was I was pretty disappointed. Not a bad little title, but shocking how it was nothing like what I had expected. Project fuckin' Ego.

And Microsoft tried making it the Zelda Killer.

Remember when you try to be the (insert title) killer the game usually ends up being not even as good as the worst game from the one series you want to kill.

I didn't cut it down. I need space.

I measured that length out and it is actually quite a bit longer than my current desk. It's crazy how fast that room gets accounted for.

I have a unique situation as I built my own desk out of metal. I do like the look of the wood desks better than my current metal/glass framing solution. Not to mention I actually built my desk a bit too small for my tastes.

The only hang up is I would have to cut out a ~18"x18" square from the desk for the motherboard tray to sit in. I'm going to have to get into CAD and see how that would work.

Fable is where people started originally questioning PM's promises.

He initially pitched Fable as an open world RPG similar to the notion of the movie 'Boyhood.' Where you watch the world, and yourself, grow up around you in real time. Where the final product was a largely linear offering with time advancing in pre-ordained spirts.

To the Americas which is fine for me.
I don't see anything about the Preorder Bonus but whatever it'll probably be there. I know the actual raid content will be which is more important than a soundtrack and art book

This is another Dragon Age situation where I would need to pay someone to buy me the game since it doesnt show up here. I'll think it over and decide before the day is over. Afterall I got things to pay.

Nope

What were you expecting.

 

[MUnited83]

Well, it's only a activation lock, and actually seems to include the whole Americas, Asian and African countries. So it's only really locked for Europe and Australia/New Zealand. Even then you just need a VPN to activate. Done.

Yep

fixed for proper accuraccy.

I agree. It was complete bullshit.

Guerrilla totally forgot to put an interesting plot into Killzone games, sadly.

I wish they incorporated more of the actual lore to the games. Killzone's lore is extremely good, very interesting and well-written. A shame they don't actually show it much on the actual games.
