Another Ubisoft game was removed from Steam
I know that is one of the most talked games here so I'm sorry for repeating the question: What can I expect from Pillars of Eternity? I haven't played any WRPG for more than one hour (they are one of my pending gaming duties) so I don't know if I'll like it.
I'm asking this because I saw the White Edition for 9,95 and I think it's a very good price, right? (is the one with all the DLC and expansions?), so I'm debating on buying it and making my full debut on the "genre".
Thanks in advance!

I'd guess its publishing contract expired. Sega owns the game and IP by way of the Demiurge acquisition.
Anyway, I'm finally past the point I was in the buy-to-play version of Secret World \o/
1 mission left in the Savage Coast, then I'm going to Blue Mountain for the first time, yay.
I've also finished setting up the first stage of one room in my museum. Really like that system.

Anybody know if the developer behind that new Girls und Panzer game is known to make pc ports or will I have to buy it on ps4?

Can't even find out their name on mobile
It's apparently published by Bamco

I feel sorry for you for playing a game that is mostly story focused and repetitive gameplay. What accomplishment is there if not to fully grasp the story? I still suggest watching the story though youtube than torturing yourself through repetitiveness, unless you don't have anything better to play.
The anime only covers half of the first story arc of God Eater 1 (with changes). There are 3 arcs in the game. And those are better then the part the anime covers
You're joking right? This is one of the few times I admit the anime is better than the game. The main protagonist from the game is bland, boring and uninspiring, doesn't even begin to compare to Lenka Utsugi, a protagonist that's actually interesting. The story from the anime may not cover all the arcs from the game (a shortcoming could be remedy by adding further seasons), but the little the anime did have was better edited, scripted, choreographed and directed than the game. Plus the soundtrack was better too, for example I can listen to this song all day and never get bored with it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Unw2qH-kMGc.... Also not in the game.

? I have made no mention of the quality of the anime in that post. All I said is that the 2nd and 3rd story arcs of the game are better than the first story arc of the game, half of which gets covered by the anime.
If you like Cold Steel, you will probably also enjoy Trails in the Sky, and after playing them it's easier to understand even subtle details and small references.
So, I would just recommend playing them in order. Issue is also, that Cold Steel, since it plays in the same world, but later, could possibly spoil Tits.

Yeah, that one was a heartbreaker. I'm pretty sure in my verdict I recommended it, and said that for a company's first try it was great, even though it had some issues and fell into some common traps like "shitty voice acting" and "missables."
I know sometimes when I review I nitpick and make games sound worse than they really are. But I always make sure the verdict reflects my true feelings.
As far as I know they are a fine starting point, but set in the same world as the TitS games (just a different part of it) and some time after their events, so there are connections.

The more I read about God Eater, the more I think it could scratch that Hyrule Warriors itch... correct me if I'm wrong: it's repetitive, it's filled with action, it has a great gameplay loop, it's not very technical (MonHun is too complex for me), I can grind for hours if I want to (I love grinding), I can ignore the plot if I don't like it. Is that it? Because it looks like something I would love to play.
Cold Steel is set after Trails in the Sky, and does reveal a lot about a party member from Sky that isn't clear until clear in those games until later, and it often refers to the events of the games in vague details (like the Liberl Incident). So that's one particular subplot that might lose its luster if you go back, at least for part one. Cold Steel 2 starts dealing with more of the overarching plotline of the series and might be worth playing the TitS series first.
That being said, it doesn't really require any knowledge of the series to start with Cold Steel.

Sounds like it. It's easier and less 'deep' than Monster Hunter, except its Bullet Editor which is extremely complex, but also entirely optional (I only ever made some basic things with it, never managed to grasp the whole thing, lol).
It is very story focused though, although you can easily skip cutscenes and stuff if you want to.
Grinding isn't really required to progress, but you can grind a lot if you want too, lol. Even more so in God Eater 2.

Will Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen be a free update or add extra game for those who own the first game on Steam like for many other games which added remastered versions? If not then it will be a tremendous mistake.
Jawmuncher

Nope. Capcom doesn't do that.
Uh, the Steam version is the Dark Arisen version. Not sure what you mean.
Jawmuncher
Member
He's talking if they add new content to the console versions that wasn't on pc
They're porting the PC version over to XBO/PS4, there is nothing to add to Steam.
Has that been announced?
PLASTICA-MAN
Member
Isn't the new version for consoles a remastered version like Bioshock Remastered and Darksiders Warmastered ?
Exactly.
KainXVIII
Member
Of course not, its Capcpom.
Are they doing this?
The Steam version is already the Remastered version. Consoles are just getting the PC version at console settings.
Unless I completely missed some news?
Jawmuncher
Member
They might. But there's been no word yet. Just as a comparison the console version of RE5, RE6, DmC, and the upcoming Revelations port have content not avaible on PC.
Dead Rising was left alone though so just depends on how capcom is feeling.

I agree. It's such a waste and inconsiderate of folks with data caps.
They would have led with that information as a part of their marketing campaign.
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen is already on Steam. It's the only version available on it.
There is nothing remastered on the announced PS4/XB1 versions, they are literally the exact same as the PC version with settings adjusted accordingly.

The benefit of the console version is that console folks don't have to constantly fiddle with all these drivers and temps and updates.
And they can play from the couch (currently impossible with Steam version.)

Depends. They didn't make mentions of those RE features until later on.
With the binoculars. Just click on an enemy to tag them. But only up to 8 if I remember correctly.

Umm I'm using a controller ^^; I think it was R2 in this case right?
Really need to play through those Shadowrun games. Which ones are the essentials, or should I play them in release order?
What's the benefit with tagging enemies? I'm currently playing V2

What game is this? It looks like your basic WoW clone but at least its a pretty one. I have been out of the loop since WoW.
Secret World Legends, the F2P relaunch of The Secret World.
Best known for its great writing and quests that laugh at many singleplayer games.

Wow, RE0 HD looks much much better than RE1 HD, (especially for background) wish they didn't ruin REmake in this regard. (i heard they lost some of the source codes, shame.) I liked game so far, sure not level of RE1 but still really fun. (i didn't know anything about this one and never played, so these are big plus for more fun.) I think RE0 harder than RE1 so far, you can't escape from zombies easily like RE1, you need to think new strategy every time you beaten, like playing Demon's Souls/Dark Souls, so fun times! Alternate controls a bit ponderous, not giving immediate reaction as RE1 HD, don't know why.

That looks very different from when I played normal Secret World for a bit many moons ago. Maybe I will take a look again.
But I kill everything I see XD
