Support NeoGAF

[Arthea]

That's too funny

I just read description of You must build a boat (for the first time) and apparently taking multiple quests at once makes a game harder, it never occurred to me, I'll try with one quest to see the difference.

this made me chuckle too

You must take credit for random chain combos you made no effort to arrange.

You must reconcile that despite the game’s title, you begin your journey in possession of what is, in no uncertain terms, already a boat.

You must look up at the clock and wonder how it’s so late already.

That description is really something

we're all just the dream of a turtle in outer space!

bah, I thought you are referencing Discworld, totally disappointed now.

A turtle in space? Or a turtle on drugs?

we're all just the dream of a turtle in outer space!

Missed the Dirt Rally price error. Fuck, what a great deal that was.

Sale threads about sales of PC games not welcomed by the mod staff now?

I dont have a clue why. I mean for Destiny we had like 100 threads about mundane shit.
"How do you play Destiny. Tell us how to play it."
"Destiny. Show off your character."
"Destiny. Whats your favorite level?"
"Destiny. Share strategies."
"Destiny. NeoGAF Matchmaking."
"Which NPC did you like most in Destiny."

Uncharted has thousands of threads.
"Whats your favorite Uncharted cutscene."
"Uncharted is great!"
"Uncharted looks photorealistic, right! Lets talk about it."
"Is Uncharted better than Tomb Raider?"

These are just my impressions, not actual threadtitles, but I dont understand why these threads get closed.

Is there any way to have the Xbox One Controller start Big Picture mode with a button press like the 360 controller could?

[Pachimari]

Do somebody happen to have a DiRT Rally code that I can buy?

 

[Uzzy]

The newest version of BlazBlue, Central Fiction, has been rated by the Taiwanese ratings board, and sadly there's no mention of a PC release. So I guess we'll be waiting a while for that one.

At least the previous game, Chronophantasma EXTEND, is coming to PC next month, where I'm sure it won't be utterly crushed by the 800 pound gorilla that is Street Fighter V.

If it manages to sell 50K units, it'll be fine. Heck GG Xrd selling a little under 50K is considered good.

Can somebody hook a sister out with a DiRT Rally code? I'm really annoyed for missing such an amazing deal.

I just tried that and it went into BP by pressing the guide button. I'm still on Windows 7 though.

On Windows 10? I had to disable the button for GameDVR. Go into the Xbox App, Turn On GameDVR, Press Win+G to load the GameDVR menu, open settings there and turn off the option to open gamedvr with guide button. Then I disabled GameDVR box in the Xbox App.

Ah, had to turn off a setting inside the Xbox app apparently. Now it works. Thanks!

Then in every FFIX thread we've had PS4 portbegging wihtout bannings, in that thread they closed the thread and banned like the 4 people still argumenting in there.

 

[MakeshiftChef]

Sooo, I'm still playing through SOMA. It's slow going for me though as I can't play the game until after my sons have gone to bed and that leaves me with limited play time. But the first three hours have been really awesome. The game's got a great creepy/scary atmosphere. There's some really weird shit going on that I'm not going to mention here as I think it's spoilery, but man am I having fun with it.

 

[Jack The Nipper]

As promised:

thanks for this man. Yep, will lose but it's really cool! lol

They just locked the last thread, this will probably be closed as soon as the mod who closed the last wakes up if he isn't awake already.

I'd totally support consistently banning sales discussion period throughout the entire forum.

I'd say it would greatly improve the discourse.

Maybe they should ban those people who derail threads instead of shutting down the thread. But arguing about this is getting close to be banned themself.

 

[Arthea]

just play it, I'm like 95% sure that remake will be nothing like FF7 and only will share the same story, so far everything points to that.

eh I don't know. GAF is a very industry news and sales focussed forum and it's hard to change that. I don't really even look for quality discussion about games here.

Meant the last JRPG sales thread

and I wasn't 100% serious, it totally is going to depend on if it evolves to platform wars.

Dragons Dogma is 14 GB.

That's pretty tame for current times. (Dead serious, I no longer cringe even at 50 GB. 100+ GB would get my attention.)

Are there any pc focused forums/subreddits or at least ones that aren't openly hostile to pc? It's becoming increasingly apparent that this forum just doesn't suit my gaming habbits really. I only stick around for steamgaf honestly and the sometimes funny but eventually overused memes.

Even if it isn't perfect, this thread is probably as good as it gets.

RPS forums could be good as well but I don't know how active they are

unfortunately, gaf is still the best to my knowledge, not for game specific discussions, no, but for industry news and activity is of the charts.

What is sad, that aside of gamefaqs that has much more shortcomings and is not so active as it used to be (probably too many games for all boards to remain active), there is no game dedicated discussions anymore, at least not active ones and devoid of wars.

You're told the install size of the game when you initiate the download.

Why you say that?

I actually think that VR might save AMD, if they play their cards right.

Can't believe I missed the Dirt deal, what a shame, one of the few games I was looking for.

The good news is that I tried another brand of coffee and it was good. A really good coffee!

I do love those.

Also, this thread made me realize, that I want Unreal Championship and Unreal Championship 2 on Steam. I wonder why they haven't ported them yet?
