Can't delay something that didn't get a concrete release date in the first place. Syndicate was always to appear later on PC from the moment it got first announced. Whether it's for the good of the game, to give the console versions breathing room it is what it is and not like anyone said 'oh hey here's one date but we'll change it to come out later on this platform'.

Oh I wasn't insulating this was on purpose or anything. More like what you said it just happened that way. I for one just hope it performs well is all.

Man, I hope SC's sales are within XSeed's expectations.
Really bad timing for the release but at this point they just had to push it out the door whenever it was ready.

Kill me guys if you want to but I like playing Dragon Age Inquisition. I've played it thanks to the trial available on Origin. Does the witcher 3 have any demo available on steam? I don't want to base my opinions on my playthrough of the witcher 2 since its an older game but frankly speaking I didn't like the combat in tw2.
Also I will not play aliens again while I'm alone in the house. This game still terrifies me that much.

Well in May when it offically got announced it was stated that Syndicate was to release on 23rd October for PS4 and XO and vaugely Autum for PC. Normally AC has been a couple of weeks to a month behind on PC but Unity was day and date. So while Syndicate in no way shape or form has had a delay for any version it's quite funny that seeing as every other game on every platform from Uncharted to Halo gets delayed these days (even Unity got put back a few weeks) that AC S has been on schedule but some folks still mention delays. I guess it's the norm these days that it just easily rolls of the tounge
You could have saved 20% at GMG, bruh.
dat card money tho

To be fair I always forget they aren't day in date on PC with AC :x

Rogue is totally skippable and easily one of the worst games of the series. I enjoyed Unity much more.
Well, no, but you could refund it if you don't like it in the first 2 hours.
Fairly sure GNG doesn't take card money tho
You can use that dank card money for Steam-only games. Opportunity cost, man.Fairly sure GNG doesn't take card money tho

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I don't have any spare money to buy that now so maybe later. I just want to play both games first firsthand than let others cloud my opinions before buying either one of them.

I pre-ordered Fallout 4 today too.
On PS4.
Congrats/that sucks. I heard it looks great/like Satan's goatse. I'm sure you'll be very happy/distraught with your experience.
I did help. Think about the possibility that the individual games might be removed once final cut is released
Some games.

do they take advantage of the pc or is it a straight up console port? A month delay i expect a flawless fucking port with some nice bells and whistles, they're a huge studio, theres no excuse for such a delay for every single one of their games.
By the way, there is a Realms of the Haunting giveaway on IndieGala.
GIVE IT TO ME NOW!
Yeah, that's one of the reasons I haven't jumped in... That and the fact I'm still playing Zestiria (BTW, TitS SC price is around the same as Zestiria's here).
Anyway, my plan is to play it around the holidays, where I'll have a little more time (and where I will surely enjoy it a lot more <3).

Yeah Undertale is really incredible. There are lots of secrets and all sorts in the game. As someone else has stated as well, the bad endings are worth going through as well, probably best without any insight into them and just going blind
Yeah. Major spoiler probably but
I really like how the Steam version is that much more difficult to mess with, especially due to the clever way in which the cloud saving and cache is used. With the humble version for example, it is possible to go through the files and relatively easily reverse permanent changes. The Steam version intentionally makes it difficult, with the cloud saving and cache also occurring during the start up. I also really love that there is still so much that isn't clear or well understood after all this time even with some of the data mining going on. I kind of really hope there is a lot more going on, whether via a new game or some kind of update / expansion that starts to really unravel all this stuff.

I've preordered it too. One copy for myself from the GMG price-error at $30 and a copy for my bae for £29, which is just under $45.
Good news is I'm now broke, slightly bad news is that my PSU still needs replacing and I'm still very much in need of a new CPU cooler... Then there's the issue of my gym membership having expired and me more or less needing to stay active to not lose my sodding mind...
God damnit, why can't I poop gold?
I think it's to do with people being used to Ubisoft doing it that way. More often than not we get a broken promise, this time we just don't get any kind of a promise. Hopefully it'll be a solid port, but it being Ubisoft means it'll be a fair bit janky, but that's how it is when a thousand bakers are involved in making one pie.

I don't know what game to play, I've spent the last few days bouncing from game to game and I can't seem to stick with one. Real bummer.

No one can be named a true SteamGAFer until he gets a copy of that amazing game from a surprise giveaway.

Repair system is out in fallout 4 not liking what I'm hearing about the game man, dumb down dialogue like bioware games (which i fucking knew would happen) and now no repair system. game sounds super dumb down for as much mainstream appeal as possible.

You know that one game where you got sidequest fatigue right before the final battle?
Play that one.

Who said Fallout Dialog was dumbed down? Being in a circle format rather than a list doesn't equal dumbed down.
that sounds like every game!

My hearts telling me play games, but my bodies telling me I don't really want to play games.
I don't know what to do anymore. I have probably a dozen games that fit the bill.
I always end up playing something that's not on the list of "games I should be playing", but if you aren't enjoying hopping around games then I think it's not bad to take a break
I find it best to play something that's just very different than the games you have been playing, like if I've been playing action games I switch to story focused ones like telltale games
Repair system is out in fallout 4
Was repair ever in? Did they show that in any of the conference videos? I cant remember. Seems like you have a ton of options with crafting it shouldnt make a difference.

finished Tales from the Borderlands. very fun. Still like Wolf more but this was right there.
There are also TV shows or manga if you are into that kind of thing. Or books.
(I know, that's probably not very helpful, but I also get tired of games from time to time and then I go to the stuff I mentioned... it helps in my case.

4 options; 1 to advance the conversation, one to be sarcastic/jerk, one to say no, and the last one to ask questions. also the text sometimes doesn't show what your character actually says.
