Yes they are, this isn't new, it resurfaced because the Internet loves to repeat itself constantly.

It is strange that I missed them. Or maybe I did not miss them but did not bother to perform a reverse image-search, I don't remember.

You don't missed them, the name wasn't in the database when the pictures surfaced, if it's now, they added it recently.

I watched

Josh Strife Hayes "Worst MMO ever" video on Guild Wars 1 an evening or so ago and was immediately struck with nostalgia.
Really made me in the mood to boot it back up and create a new character. Or for that matter, continue the adventures of my old characters. Never managed to finish any of the plots.
 
Looking forward to reading impressions of the FF4 Pixel Remaster tomorrow. I'm curious to see how it compares to the other versions. When the whole collection is done getting released, I have this big plan of doing a FF marathon since I haven't played the original six entries in such a long time.

Also hi, I'm new here! :D

Welcome! 🤗

I'm personally waiting to (re)-play these on the Deck next year, seems perfect for the form factor.

Also, welcome!
 
The environmental stuff looks great in Marvel Midnight Suns

It does indeed, I didn't expect such a degree of environmental interaction in a card-based game. The only thing I am iffy on is the choice to have a custom character as the protagonist. During the entire presentation I was constantly thinking "I wish I could replace the Hunter with Daredevil". I feel like Firaxis wanted to preserve the customization aspect of XCOM but it feels completely out of place here.

I really like this series and this has me wanting to give GW a try. Think I might still have an account with the original game registered to it.

The other videos in this series are well worth a watch as well. The vast majority do stick to the title of the series. But there is the of green in there he really enjoys.

FYI In case people missed this. It's common sense but i'm sure some people will get moody about it...


Of course there's going to be some games that don't run or don't run well just like on a normal Windows PC and especially a Linux machine and i guarantee there will be people gloating and looking for every single instance of a game not working so they can claim their 15 minutes of angry internet hero points.

Actually, I think this was already discussed because someone shared the original podcast episode (this is just media catching up with the news hehe)

It's actually really cool so, I would recommend to listen it

Welcome!

You can't bang the supers in Marvel Midnight Suns so I already ignored the game :flushed-face:



I'm still waiting to get my Tales of Arise key from GamersGate.

I believe this article serves well for the purpose of clarifying the whole issue.

It's such a cool game, but the controls and lack of jump, it's a bit of its time :face-with-open-mouth-and-cold-sweat:
But as much as I like the nice, fluid gameplay of WoW, the increasingly tactical nature of Guild Wars was fantastic... and still possible at the time, you could do something WIDELY different from everything else...
In a world where you have three keys to push if you're lucky with no customization of any sort, being dropped in a game where you can choose whatever you want from the 2000 strong list...

And I still consider Nightfall to be my favorite MMO expansion ever.
And definitely one of the very best atmospheres of any game, straight up.
African fantasy with different nations and cultures, with such a massive amount of variety was just a treat, one you never see in videogames. And people will usually miss all of that for a long time (or completely) since it's the second expansion!

I never played GW1 but I'm surprised how much GW2 resembles its prequel. It's been like 7 or 8 years since release of GW2, I wish we had GW3 already :negative-blob:

Pathfinder: WoTR act2 spoilers:

Storming the city of Drezen and recapturing it was an epic moment, hopefully the game keeps going up from there. Now I could choose a mythic path and I decided for the Azata, as a bonus I got a cute dragon now

Jeeesus, I really need to opt out of this PS5 alert thingy. I was overing over a buy button that would have seriously handicapped my Deck purchase. For a console with what ? A couple of exclusives ?
Sorry, needed to vent a little.

When is Sony next show by the way ? It was these days, no ?

I think it's tomorrow

The most over-promised and under-delivered game ever on release. Makes you wonder who caused all the hype and set themselves up to fall down...

Well, Cyberpunk finally gave them some competition at least :D

PC (Steam and Bethesda.net) will have three regional unlock times:

So there is still Bethesda.net version? I guess they just want Valve to pay for bandwidth on non-bethesda.net purchases :D
