To be fair it's not like you can play Destiny on the PC at the moment. One imagines the PS4 version will have better AA or something of that nature to take advantage of the extra power. Has been the case with every game so far so the whole parity conspiracy is very silly.

They better nail the music for that DLC.

Then wait for Walking Dead Game from Overkill.

I don't see how it is any different to PC fans complaining about ports.
People want the hardware they purchase to be used fully. No real big drama.

Man, I love Metal Gear.
Wait what? A stan alone game or another DLC to PD2?

Fair point. But it happens in every DF Face-Off thread, not just the Destiny one.
Stand alone. They announced it not long ago. http://www.pcgamer.com/uk/2014/08/14/overkill-are-making-a-the-walking-dead-game/

Fuck Bioshock Infinite. A compulsory 5gb patch for languages I do not need. Fuck Steam for not allowing such useless patches to be optional.

You could just uninstall.
You can disable patching for titles, can you not?

Those are optional. Only Origin AFAIK forces you to download all language packs at once. Or at least Titanfall did.
Steam does allow languages to be optional downloads, you can blame the dev for the mandatory download.

Nah he still has a fair point.
Why couldn't that be free DLC.

On the bright side, two thirds of console users now get to know how it feels to be held back by inferior hardware. Maybe they'll think twice about throwing around daft 'master race' jibes towards PC gamers in the future.
nope not gonna happen
toddhunter

You had me at "Fuck Bioshock Infinite".
It will happen, because people grow up. The problem is they are just replaced by younger gamers and the cycle continues.
So best not to worry about it too much.
Additional languages are optional... for games. DLC isn't so lucky.
The languages were added to the DLC, not the base game. No way around that unless the dev went the faux-DLC route like Eidos with The Missing Link.
In this case it's not optional, no. Of course, you can disable patches but that would make it impossible to get any more bug-fixing updates in the future and he would have to download the language update anyways.
Oh, I didn't know that. Yeah Valve really should fix that.

Yeah, I've never really thought about it before but DLC should be afforded the same optional downloads as games.

People complain about PC ports when the performance is a mess, or there's a severe lack of customization options. Generally people don't whine about their machines not getting pushed to the limits every time a new game is released.

I'm not going to buy this before it's in a bundle so hopefully by then they have fixed any gamecrashing bugs making the game impossible to complete. It took them around 6 months last time.

What we need is free language DLC for DLC. So meta.

This is for Payday 2.
Eh, I think it's pretty obvious the constant console comparisons are more fueled by people wanting to be on the 'winning' team than with people wanting the most out of their hardware.

... or alternatively you can go to your nearest Volvo dealership
Volvo really needs do a DOTA 2-themed collaboration. An SUV called Diretide? Someone would buy it.
Ta. Something to use my 20% code on.

Eh. The code is apparently valid until October 12, so I'll save it until something I want crops up. I was looking at getting Castlevania LoS Mirror of Fate, but I likely won't be playing that for quite some time. Too many games in the backlog.

It's a thread on the internet where people have opinions.

Ugh, more DLC.
Holy crap!
You don't have to buy it. PD2 DLC is actually great and they do a lot of free DLC too.
Good dlc. I don't see the issue.

Haha. Oh wow.
