No, you can use a fresh character or an existing one. Character level doesn’t matter. Once you enter the DLC area your stats are locked to prevent you from steamrolling the content. There will be a “leveling” system in the DLC similar to the prayer bead system in Sekiro, from what I understand.

That was my thought as well. Still gave me the same vibes. The demo itself is only 10 minutes, so it’s a very quick play.

They were also a special in the Epic store. I, too, picked them up and have yet to play through.

System Shock II, Half Life, Deus Ex and Bioshock all still stick with me all these years later. Steam just had the Bioshock bundle for $12, was thinking of playing through. I never played the sequels in the day.

They may want to rethink that...what am I thinking?! These fuckers DON’T think. I crossed paths with a brother today with a “Been There, Done That” Afghanistan t-shirt. We talked for about a minute about cars, deployments, etc. Then dapped up in the Safeway parking lot and went out separate ways.

Also, jump attacks with long weapons give melee builds more range.

The kicker about this is that Tolkien was strongly against rascism, and Middle Earth was polycultural. So with that in mind, I don’t think he would have been too put out about these diversity-based decisions.

I loved him talking about how the head coach in me would get annoyed when I’d see people go for it on 4th & 8 I want to find a way to do something about that. The next year they introduced “Ask Madden” which still exist and has been innovated to “Coaching Suggestions” as he aged out of his involvement 

I am one of the (many) programmers who worked on it, glad you enjoyed it :)

New Lands is such a cool track and an incredible music video. It’s actually been in my user tracks list for years now.

Literally the only reason I have one preordered. Otherwise, I might have waited a bit longer but gotta have much more competent and freeing emulation. Retroarch is my favorite explicitly since it has the best CRT phosphor filters, among plenty of other features. While it’s not AS important on a small screen it’s still…

Yep and this is gonna be the best handheld emulation machine.

1. Danny DeVito is Wario

His increasingly pathological relationship with his audiences is also cringeworthy.

Amen! I’m with you....loved the earlier installments and the maps.

Hitoshi Sakimoto created the drivers and composed/arranged the music to both Devilish and Midnight Resistance, just in case you posted those coincidentally. His work on the Mega Drive with Gauntlet IV, Verytex, Master of Monsters, King Salmon, Two Crude Dudes, and Captain America is also fantastic.

Gareth Coker recently was a guest on a podcast called Crossfade and spoke about the upcoming soundtrack for Halo Infinite as well as mentioning that Ubisoft asked him to make the Immortals Fenyx Rising soundtrack “Greek Ori” as he says. The clip below isn’t about Fenyx but Halo.. but that should nudge you into the…

If I had to try and sum it up I’d say that it does all the things other survival games do, but it all comes together so much better than those other games (and I’ve played many). The survival mechanics aren’t overbearing and the game can be both incredibly relaxing and super intense. It’s beautiful to look at in a…

Hahahaha! Fingerhut! OF COURSE I remember that! For some reason I have a memory of there always being a Fingerhut catalog sitting on the back of the toilet in the half-bath attached to my parents’ bedroom.
