I don’t agree with the decision for no flying. Why? Because Blizz sells flying mounts for real world cash and players are now unable to use them. It is bad business to make someone pay for something, just to take away the main point of having said item, and taking it away without saying anything. For shame.

This is a horrible idea. The WORST parts of modern day gaming are the portions that attempt to be scary by making the screen black and relying on jump scares. I hate it. Doom 3 devs called it “atmosphere”, really all it did was make me crank up the gamma so that I could spend less time walking into corners I couldn’t…

This product did not need console support. Neither did the first two games. CDPR wanted more money (and that is OK! Businesses exist to make money!) so they branched out to the console to grab more audience. I would tend to agree, if you (the royal you) are complaining because a pre-release PR\Marketing Demo looks…

Smash didn’t, in fact it has had several updates to fix various issues. Also, Mario is like 1/10 the scale of the Witcher 3, maybe less. It still has its issues, just look up Mario bugs. Comparing Mario to the Witcher 3 is like comparing a rocket to a horse buggy as far as complexity is concerned.

Oh man, you are so wise and powerful. Please, tell me more about how awesome you are. Like that time you made a AAA game that was perfect out of the gate.

In a lot of the supporting stories (read: Anything except WoW proper) the “normal” citizenry interact quite a lot. In fact a common theme across all the books\comic book\whatever is having both the Horde (form now on known as teh Uber) and Alliance (hither to be known as the Poopy Pants Baby Gang) throwing down racial…

I have mixed feelings about this. First, stay at home mom is a damn demanding job. I feel like if a hubby is able to, maybe paying your wife for the services she is rendering (not sexual services obviously, I am talking about taking the brunt of child care, and managing a lot of what goes on in the home. If a spouse…

God I wish developers would bring back faction neutrality. Remember OG Galaxies? Where your faction ties were covert and you could converse and play with everyone. If you wanted to PVP you became an Overt operative. I really wish WoW would had done that at some point. Would have made things very interesting.

This is not exactly true. If the main SKU of a game is for PC, then the changes to the PC code will be disseminated to the other SKUs (PS4 & Xone). Then those secondary SKUs are worked on independently to ensure compatibility with HW. The changes made to the secondary SKUs will never affect the main SKU. What likely…

Lol, I have no sympathy for rubes who think a pre-release demo made specifically for marketing purposes is in anyway a promise for a post-release product. Of course they are going to show you the best possible version of a product that may only run on specialized HW or with massive portions of background processes…

Lol, you just described long term crunch time as an alternative to short term crunch time... all without pay I am assuming? The fact that you think that is an “alternative” speaks to how effed the industry is. (I worked in it for half a decade before I finally had had enough abuse)

I worked in the game industry (for the ill-fated THQ no less) and I can attest that everything in this article is true. Everyone that isn’t c-level management is pressured into working 12+ hours days for months on end, all for substandard pay and a pink slip when the product ships. Is there a worse word for…

Not to mention avoid the dreaded day-0 patch...

Play number 2, but make sure to install the FCR mod from the REDKit site (Project Red’s Mod site, that mod is an unofficial “patch” created by the developers that makes the OK combat in Witcher 2 much better). While you shouldn’t miss a whole lot from skipping Witcher 1 (I love the series and even I cannot get past…

This is worth it for the goat.se reference alone. GoatZ... GET IT!

Lol, just git gud. But seriously, people can play however they want, and if you cannot adapt to that (barring the occasional bug of course) then you are not competitive enough to play in Random Online matches. Stop blaming your shortcomings on your opponents. Git gud, scrub.

Really? More independent detective work went into a damn football game then pretty much the entirety of police involved shootings for the same year... ugh.

The point is Loki had it. Loki had two stones, which means Thanos had two stones. Had Loki simply absconded with them, that would be it. Thanos could have come and subjugated the Earth, installed Loki as the leader, then went on to find more stones. Instead Loki lost him two stones. There is literally no point to the…

Thanos actually had two gems in Avengers. There is one in the scepter, and one in the tesseract. Loki lost him TWO infinity stones.

I’ve actually found many of the fatalities so far to be lack luster. There are a couple gems (I like Scorpion’s) but most are just meh by MK standards imho.
