Dang... most of the time Vermintide runs at like 70-100fps but then it can drop all the way down to the high 30s, its wildly inconsistent on High, and really wasn't too much better on Medium.

Bully is the only Rockstar game i've ever liked
Click to expand...

honestly, it's less about the game and more about the insanely long loading screen before the game

also i've liked many rockstar games, even tho i think writing in most of them is complete garbage (and they all have so much fucking writing and it's always unskippable)

but i've liked all the 3d gtas i've played, i liked the warriors and i liked the non-mexico rdr parts

i haven't played enough bully to judge, but i've heard good things

Huh
So THAT'S where that last DOOM '16 Stage 1 secret was.
Nice one too.

Also I feel silly for not realizing the Super Shotgun doesn't require Mods to be upgraded :V

Do you think it's better to have played the pre-sequel before playing tales?
Click to expand...

It's best to not have played any Borderlands so you don't go into it hating, well, Borderlands. In theory you'll lose the 'oh it's that guy' moments and won't have any idea about the Handsome Jack situation but in practice that barely matters, it's not like the characters have deep backgrounds and some of the cameos are the worst part of the game even if you know them. Though I can think of one scene that might have more impact if you've played the older games. And I just realized you only talked about the PreSequel which i have not touched myself so, uh, don't mind me and go play Tales now.

It's a game that brings people together.

If your girlfriend wants the game so much, then make her join the stream and help the channel grow?

KenOD here supplying his whole family with OW codes. Meanwhile I'm sitting here freaking broke and depressed watching a long 12 hour stream and hoping for an OW code like an idiot, not knowing/predicting repeat winners like KenOD destroying my chances.

Borderlands 2 is top 5 all time FPS tho.

This is where in the past I'd post something and people would say 'derExperte is mean'. But I'm a better man now so I'll just sit here, crying silently.
Admittedly the Tiny Tina DLC was legit good.

They're revamping the whole system and moving to that AwTV site, you then won't be able to get into raffles on Twitch and it'll include more checks and balances to weed out fake accounts. Maybe it'll actually work and maybe it'll also avoid situations like this which it should because everything that causes salt is just bad PR objectively speaking. Of course they could've already implemented a rule disallowing multiple wins per stream but that would probably have led to even more alts.

Never understood any of the hate Borderlands 2 gets. The first one was very bad and in many ways unplayable sure..but 2 was great. Near masterpiece in terms of grindy fun and funny story telling. Haven't played presequel yet but I hear its more of the same as 2 so it can't be that bad.

I'm actually kind of happy gearbox is going through this mess with battlebornbomba. I hope it fuels and enrages them to knock it out of the park with the eventual Borderlands 3. That game will probably be epic.

To me it has something to do with their ridiculous DLC practices. First of all you buy a full-priced AAA game and they lock cosmetic items behind a paywall. Then their seasonpass doesnt even have all the content.
Then you need to pay so that you can get to 5 new levels...

The game isnt bad. 2Ks DLC practices are. Its not just Borderlands. Evolve had the same shit going on.

Same. I stayed up until 5 AM something here and I had to wake up 4 hours later. I'm not mad at KenOD though, he seems like a nice guy and at least isn't some alt or total stranger.

What I don't like about bnet is that NA and EU are different - pissed me off a lot since my D3 account was on EU, but my hearthstone account was on NA - kept having to switch accounts whenever I wanted to speak to friends.

There should be one friend-list. Get your shit together Blizz.

Regarding that, i saw a version of Overwatch called "EU edition" on Amazon UK that's more expensive than the normal version. I'm not sure what the difference is, can anyone explain what it means?

The Warcraft movie is indeed pretty bad. They made several changes to the plot & twists, combined with bad pacing. Well, maybe not pretty bad, just bad. At least there's some good fanservice there. Sigh.
