Personally, didn't like it that much, other? ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT.

So it's one of those cases where it's better to check by yourself and see if it's your cup of tea.
You should definitely give it a try, it's very polarizing. If it clicks on you it's pretty amazing, if it doesn't, it can be an absolute drag (it's an incredibly slow open world game).

But why waste 60 bucks on a game that MIGHT be your cup of tea?

Does anyone know how to check if the WinGameStore region listing for Code Vein is correct? I was tempted to buy it and they have it on sale but they have only a version that says it can't be activated in the US. I've bought from them before and just think it's odd they don't have a version for US region.

Honest question, is RDR2 even a good game?
It's not for everyone. It's very slow and methodical to a fault, which can either be an abominable slog or a very fun experience depending of what you're into.

I gave it an 8.5,

It's a great game that gets dragged by unnecessarily meticulous things that we play video games to escape.

In the game, cleaning your weapon takes seconds, but IRL, an hour. Now imagine playing a game where you don't need to clean your weapon ever.

In RDR2, you have to clean your weapon, or cook your food, or carefully mount or dismount your horse...these little animations that take extra seconds add up over the course of a (checks personal playtime) 50-hour game.

And OMG if Dutch says "I have a plan!" one more time....


The good outweighs the bad, but you should go in knowing that RDR2 is on the precipice of frontier simulation rather than a sandbox. I hate survival games....

970 shouldn't be too bad, right? =/
I can't get 60fps at 1080p highest setting on Code Vein and Greedfall lol.
1660 Ti has GTX 1070 performance while using less power (similar power consumption to GTX 1060), but it has 2GB less VRAM than the 1070.

Comparing the 1660 Ti to the 900 series, it's slightly better than a 980 Ti, if I'm not mistaken.
Hmm is 2070 better? It's only cost slightly more than 1660ti

970 is actually below minimum specs for Greedfall. It runs fine though but I get random crashes and I dont know why.

My yearly subscription ended, and I was expecting October to be my last Humble monthly bundle, but I had to purchase this one, for Spyro.

But, indeed it's a seriously dick move for those who bought the compilation at launch.
I had this happen to me with other games (purchasing them, and a week later, sometimes less, they would be bundled), and it just plain sucks.
Some developers/publishers are the first ones to undervalue their products, and then they act surprised when people don't purchase games at launch, and instead wait for sales, or bundles.

That Zhuge's RDR2 tweet is really bad.

Oh I see. Well I planned to upgrade my CPU and motherboard this month and VGA next year. RDR2 announcement make me want to revise my plan.

Still contemplating on getting either MSI B450 Tomahawk Max or Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite for future proofing.
