No chance. You’re not going to see a console that can play games at 4k for a while still. I mean, unless they are graphically pretty basic.

Doubtful! We’ll definitely see a quality difference in games designed with the 4.5 in mind. It’ll be the same as if you were to choose Low vs High detail settings in a PC game, or if you’re playing new games on an iPhone from 2 years ago vs one from this year.

Overwatch has 12 actual maps.

I mean, I’m in the camp that thinks the game needs more maps, but it’s got 12 right now, not 4.

They might have been trying to avoid having another sword-user on the cast since it looks like there’s 4 of them already.

characters like McCree and Mei can phase Reaper long enough with stun and freeze abilities to leave him defenseless

I wondered about this in the beginning, remembering the infamous Doom fanfic’s “John, you are the demons” and wondering if the writers had taken inspiration from that. As you play I think it becomes pretty clear that this isn’t the case. You are the Doom Slayer and shit’s gone bad again on Mars.

There is a story there, and all the threads hinting at what is written above are in the game. Personally, I was intrigued from the moment the game began and I realized the doomguy had just emerged from a sarcophagus. I was surprised, but I really did want to know more and happily ate it up.

It’s one of the most true-to-life RPG-style shows out there, at least compared to every D&D group I’ve ever been a part of.

fwiw, the Quake 2 BFG already did this. :)

Yeah, Nightmare is unlocked from the start but it’s red and placed apart from the other difficulties. I thought it was locked my first time through as well.

The Battleborn season pass is only for additional campaign content, everything else is coming for free.

It’s a good way to get shot is what that is. I killed him.

One of those levers exists in every level. Each one opens up a door that leads to a room from Doom 1 or 2 and unlocks that full level for play (with the new Doom’s weapons and monsters) via the campaign menu.

I don’t see why the reviewer is being targeted for this. He didn’t like the game and that’s fine, a review is always going to be subjective. I agree that he should have elaborated on his concerns, but I can also see why he didn’t because he would be entering spoiler territory.

I really, really hope they’re making reference to this infamous fanfic http://doom.wikia.com/wiki/Repercuss…

There’s still no unit stacking. They’re adding the ability to add a single support unit to a combat unit.

Sure, a giant ball of cuddles that gets sent to space to burn as a star for millenia.

That happened in All-Star Batman & Robin by Frank Miller. It’s not part of normal Batman canon and is widely considered to be hilariously bad.

I’ll be that one weirdo playing Battleborn this weekend! Also Offworld Trading Company.
