No.
I mean, I "only" played for 3 hours so far (as Pyromancer), but it seems pretty good. Decently CPU-heavy if you want to maintain 60 FPS at maximum settings, but that's to be expected from a "next-gen" game.

Does it support SLI? All I want to know

Sorry, can't say anything about that, I don't use SLI.
(Primarily because I exceedingly rarely play AAA games and want to avoid the compatibility lottery outside of those)

Well...shit

On another note, how long is your average Undertale playthrough? More or less. 8ish hours?

They don't look similar... but they don't look dissimilar, either.

Decently CPU-heavy (4 threads required) or absurdly CPU-heavy (even you 6T12H CPU isn't enough)?

I guess the division's appeal is on mostly loot and filling up bars, so far it's a bit like any other TPSes but with stats and online, shooting and enemy encounters are nothing amazing, but it's entertaining and all the equipment and loot and upgrades will keep you occupied for a while until you max them out

not bad so far, I can see myself logging in to fart around, especially since I don't have an online game to play atm

some level designs aren't so bad too when there are open areas

Bemine revoked my Dragonsphere and Sid Mayer something keys bought in a bundle in 2014.
Am I the only one?
EDIT: It seems in Groupee chat other people have the same issue.
EDIT 2 : Maybe those keys were from that Bemine fuckup in which some keys unlocked also for people who bought a lower tier bundle. Still strange this happened after two years anyway.

The problem is the loot being vanilla D3 tier

I'm having trouble with my internet connection which has led to several failures logging in to Steam. steam Mobile app doesn't send me codes because of this
Now it says I have to wait and try again later.

How long do I have to wait?

How do i make charts in Excel that have 2 bars for the same X-axis segment? Like, i wanna make charts based on Steamspy data of some game's sales per month but i also want to list the max discount on the Steam store foe each month.

The max discount number doesn't have to be a bar, i just want to have that info next\above\below the unit sales in a readable and understandable manner.

So, any bets on whether Square/Tabata will announce a PC version of FF15 in that Uncovered event on the 30th?

I'm saying yes. With a 50% chance that it's a simultaneous release with the consoles.

I'm sure a PC edition will happen. They spent the hell out of money on this game for like 10 years, so they NEED to recover those money.
Regarding when, well, I think it will come later. SE is used to double dipping practice, they know FFXV, despite being good or bad (I don't know, I'm VERY interested in the game as I wrote multiple times, but at the same time there are so many things I have doubts on), will sell ton of copies. So they will probably use that to sell console copies first and release a PC version later when sales on console will stop. Maybe in six months is my bet.

I would be surprised if they announce the release prior to the consoles, unless they are fundamentally shifting their strategy.

The double dip strategy really depends. If the game ends up being really good it can work. But if it's just ok, unless it has a good discount it becomes a harder sell. They tried the double dip approach for type 0 and it didn't completely work out. Though I think it at least sold more than X1...maybe.
