Drove into work today and power/phones were out so I drove back home. Also, my fibreop internet is back now at home, so my spontaneous day off isn't going to be super boring!
and yikes. a 63 from PCGamer.
Borderlands 2.5
This video is an eye opener for console players.I've actually had a friend say they weren't that keen on how quickly games loaded on my PC as they liked to read the tips and look at the images, lol
They weren't ranting or anything just mentioned it. I changed the HDD on my PS4 on launch day to a 7200rpm drive and have had friends say similar things when around my house. lol
I'm not sure the console guys are ready for SSD yet, there again there's going to be similar load times as today for all the assets required for games to run at 4k/60...![]()
They should've spent more time on the game and less time trying to get pre-loading to work on EGS.
Reviewers should have updated their drivers 4headBL3's issues are totally down to a typo in an ini file, it'll be sorted by launch.![]()
Oh, it will get great scores regardless.I just didn't expect the media to think so too, I thought it was sure to get great scores regardless.
Maybe they CTRL+F "steam" and replace it with "epic".BL3's issues are totally down to a typo in an ini file, it'll be sorted by launch.![]()
I saw that one. When you get this defensive about a video game you had nothing to do with, you really should take a look back at your priorities."the reviewer only played 35 hours; everyone knows that's nothing in Borderlands, he clearly didn't reach all the fun stuff that comes after that".![]()
Oh, it will get great scores regardless.
I mean, these are an exception. They are already getting great scores. I've seen plenty of 9's (IGN, Destructoid, ...):

Review: Borderlands 3
‘Just follow the soothing sounds of my voice’ I have a complicated history with Borderlands, and I suspect that’s a...www.destructoid.com
Like I saw GTA IV, one of the most boring games I remember playing, getting 10's all around.
That's why I can't possibly take the reviews on these websites seriously. When websites full of ads for a certain game post a review for said game, and use all sorts of superlatives, I can't possibly believe one thing is disconnected from the other. They read more like PR statements than reviews.
I've already read some hilarious reactions to that PC Gamer review though.
Everything from "the reviewer obviously has a grudge against the series", to my favourite one: "the reviewer only played 35 hours; everyone knows that's nothing in Borderlands, he clearly didn't reach all the fun stuff that comes after that".
Some people...
35 hours, all side-quests and give or take 5 hours of endgame !Well, some media is a slow burn so you do need to spend time with it, getting comfy before it goes batshit but Borderlands? Come on, 30 minutes in and you get what the game is about. lol
35 hours of Borderlands 3 would give you a damn good idea about the game.

Real talk
Honestly, never touched the game with a ten foot pole due to the reception, but I would be curious to know if the fixed ini make the game decent.
Who cares, it's #1 on Humble ! The 100 fucking dollars edition !!!63 for BL3? Did the check bounce?
They should've spent more time on the game and less time trying to get pre-loading to work on EGS.
Brofist for reminding me of these times. Though if the game doesn't handle volumetric fog it won't feel rightHas anyone used New Retro Arcade: Neon in the past, and went to the trouble of configuring everything, adding roms, videos, ... ?
People who got banned on online and new PC gamers?How is GTAV still in steams top selling charts, does that include in game purchases? Who are all these people buying GTAV in 2019. (Playing it is fine but I find it odd that it somehow keeps on selling an abundance of new copies at this stage)

It's not like the number of PC gamers is static.
I think i'm the only person in the world who doesn't own GTAV on any platform at this point in time.
I'm not that keen on how it plays but damn if it doesn't generate a ton of cash for Rockstar's managers and shareholders.
Impossible Spell Card is the only one that truly matters.I hate that the Touhou games on steam are not numbered.
I don't own a single GTA game.I think i'm the only person in the world who doesn't own GTAV on any platform at this point in time.

Surely not the only one. I don't either.I think i'm the only person in the world who doesn't own GTAV on any platform at this point in time.
