Shadownet being perm'd means another name is crossed off the class roll of the SteamGAF VN.

Game is going to be populated by nothing but <REDACTED> characters.


Better yet, banned characters get a laughing man plopped over their face but instead of the smiling face it's Bish.

For Dragon's Dogma I just got the mission
The Final Battle. That's not really the final battle is it? Cuz I'm only like level 40. Also, if I somehow defeat the dragon can I still go on to do the dark arisen isle content or is there a point of no return where I should do it before finishing the main quest?

There is post game content so you'll be able to go to BBI.

There is a point of no return but it's later.

Just go ahead, you can still play on after that.
 
Think I'll go onto SC Conviction next.

But first, my favorite moment of New Vegas was completing the Thorn hunting quest, sleeping with Red Lucy and having her call me "Daddy", then installing a mod and freeing all the Thorn's creatures so they could overrun the place. I have a Deathclaw buddy hanging out in Westside now.

Worst companion: Waking-Cloud from Honest Hearts. If you ever wanted evidence that Obsidian doesn't know how to write female characters, look right here. Complains constantly about her husband, tries to get you to meet her family if/when she finds out her husband's dead, and has a gender-flipped "stay in the kitchen" moment when she remarries and tells her new husband to stay home permanently.

Worst DLC: Dead Money, in a dead heat with Honest Hearts. The former is ugly as shit, repetitive, bland, filled with exaggerated versions of companions from the main game, and only slightly gets better once you get into the casino and have some breathing room. The latter's sidestory is better than the main plot, is filled with bugs and constant crashing, has a confusing level design and the final stretch is some of the worst gameplay I've experienced in any game in the last ten years.

The first time for Ubisoft?

Yeah it seems more and more devs are going with Denuvo due to it's current success. Until it becomes too big, in which case crackers will destroy it like any other DRM before it and we'll be back to where we started. People are saying it costs a shit ton to use apparently, don't know how true that is.

We know from leaked Beta info that Denuvo will be used in The Division as well, so expect it to show up in more and more upcoming games.

that means many people will buy it for the mods

how horrible :p

silly tecmo

"We have to deal with mod issues from an IP holder perspective," Shimbori told MCV. "We would like to ask PC users to play our game in good moral and manner. Otherwise, we won't be able to release a title for PC again."
Dunno if this stance changed after release.
Oh well, knowing Koei Tecmo they'd release the Vita version, somehow.

My buddy Lashman been asking for me to come participate here-being as I am getting bummed out in other threads from all the super negetivity. Im super impressed with your GOTY list- and the few I have as friends on Twitter reflect this thread in a great way-

So my name is Al. I love all genres. Love cats. Love drinking. Posting cat gifs-

I have a Skylake build 6700K and 980ti- built on Thanksgiving - havent had a decent PC since 2013.

Greatly looking forward to RotTR next week kinda looking forward to The Winess, but I prepare for disapointment following the fact there are no puzzles to solve with Piss jars.

Feel like a housecat going outside for the first time.

You sound like a lovely bloke. I too love cats, and love to get drunk off my arse to forget about lifes misery. Added ya'.

And The Witness gun b gut! :3
guys! holy shit! So I'm playing through the witcher 3 right now and strangely Kasabian- Thick as Thieves, suits the game so beautifully... The song here.

Also Witcher 3 with Ultra settings at 1440p.. oh gawd...... DA BEAUTY!

Am jelly. My 780ti can't crank it quite that far up, and I still only have a lowly 1080p display that's now... 6? years old. Dell panel though, so it's pretty fucking amazing for its price.

"Why... why the innocent punished? Why the sacrifice? Why the pain? There aren't any promises. Nothing's certain. Only that some get called, some get saved. They won't ever know the hardship and grief for those of us left behind.

We commit these bodies to the void, with a glad heart. For within each seed, there is the promise of a flower. Within each death, no matter how small, there is always a new life. A new beginning.

Amen."

Pascal cards are dropping soon but I might squeeze one more year out of my 780ti.

This year is either a new monitor (which will probably win out) or GPU but I can't do both.

Welcome to the party.

Since you missed out on the fun, what's your personal Steam GOTY of 2015?
From what little I have played of the game (on PC) I am going to go with The Witcher 3. Spent over 220+ collective hours on both PS4 and XB1 copies. I am what you would call a Witcher fan. PC is my 3rd time through the game and will be my first to beat both expansions (got to the end of HoS but didn't complete on PS4). It's nothing short of breathtaking watching the game in Motion on PC-hooked to my 65" tv.

my runners up would be Madmax and Dying Light. (Again both repurchased for PC-but such better experiences using the PC)

I am thinking about upgrading my GTX 760 to 970 this year. Pascal cards won't bring anything good to me (small market, no price drops, new things expensive).

And you too, good sir. Any friend of lashman is a friend of mine. Enjoy your stay, and I sincerely hope you too love cats and getting drunk off yer arse.

Taken from GOTY thread:


But.

It doesn't even feel vaguely plausible on any level to any synapse in my brain that what is something of an alternate universe followup to Demon's Souls where all the refinements of Dark Souls never happened, that also retains extremely problematic and fundamentally and continually painful unresolved technical issues that all contribute to placing it firmly beneath one if not two other games in its lineage, could ever conceivably beat The Witcher 3 in this list. It's sort of existentially painful to witness. I'll just leave it at that.

The first time for Ubisoft?
I think so. Looks like more and more AAA dev will use this.

Sounds about right if you've followed his chatter on Bloodborne. He thinks it's a cool little experimental sequel but removes way too many elements from Souls and straight up ignores things that were already fixed since Demon's.
