Ah you had me going for a second there.

The resurrected corpse of Black Isle should redo Fallout 3 and 4 using the Fallout 2 engine and isometric view. Also fix the stories.

It is hard and expensive. It is also worth every red cent, every drop of sweat. It is the best thing I ever did.

Don’t be afraid. Have a plan, take the plunge, and improve your life.

The censored part of the nail store is also reflected on the hood.

Rent a fighter or warrior pawn since people tend to make them huge and they can carry a lot. Put your camping kit on them. Forget about it for a few hours. Or do what I did, make your own huge warrior pawn instead of scantily-clad sorceror chick #30000, put the kit on him at the start of the game, and literally never think about it again. I spent significantly more time managing the mountains of monster materials I gathered and never really thought about the kit unless I found a better one.

I agree about your point regarding minor inconveniences, but I do not feel it applies in DD2s case. They’re either incredibly minor (art of metamorphosis costs 500RC, or just beat the game), or non-existent. The decision to bring a camping kit was a conscious one and I could have just left it in storage, but I felt the benefits outweighed the costs. I never considered buying a single one of the MTX. Like you said, you get around 4 port crystals per playthrough. Drop one in Bakbattahl, one by the dragonforged, one by the Sphinx shrine, and the 4th wherever. Vernworth, Harve, and two other spots late in the game (very late) get permanent ports, one of which actually replaced one of the others I had placed. If you’re considering buying RC, 1)why 2) just make your pawn a thot, those always get rented.

Old buddy is lying because reasons. There’s better camping kits available in game that weigh less than the paid one and let you get buffs.

It’s a trend. It’s quite literally clearly worthless garbage tacked on as MTX to satisfy some worthless suit, but as long as you don’t just buy a bunch of MTX before even playing a given game, you’d notice none of that shit needs to be bought.

The non-dlc elite camping kit, which is easy to get, weighs less than the DLC kit and lets you cook food for buffs, unlike the paid one. Also, you have 4 characters. Spread the weight around efficiently.

The game made gameplay affecting design decisions around these micro transactions.

Name one, because I beat the whole ass game without even feeling the need to buy any of that easily acquirable in-game for no money stuff. Most of the stuff is for sale at the pawn guild, including the character redesigner. I got enough port crystals to basically cover everywhere I’d want to go regularly. I spent probably 500 RC over a playthrough that got over 10k.

I scrolled through the mtx and… there is literally nothing in there that anyone should ever buy. Exception for the character redesign item, but if this is like first game, you can redesign your character between playthroughs.

I feel like there’s some kinda argument here between the director and whatever suit wanted mtx. That stuff in the store is literally pointless to buy. RC? People will rent your pawn, that’s how you get it. Wakestones? Gold in game.

Only thing I’d consider buying would be the eternal ferrystone, but that defeats the flow of the game, and they aren’t selling it.

I think RDR and Starfield winning were ops planned by their respective communities. Like, these games are clearly neither of these things, yet they won. It’s seems intentional. Not on Valves part. I have no proof, of course. It’s just baffling.

I finally started playing Cyberpunk this week and I’ve been having a blast. I totally skipped it at launch though. That said, I don’t have faith Bethesda has what it takes to make Starfield great. They’ve been a joke for a long time.

I regret having a kid. He’s going to live a long time, maybe, in this world we’re destroying. Or die what would be considered too soon. He’s too soft and kind for the shit that looks like it’s coming.

Wah. Stop putting up with crunch and make something artistic for once, instead of the next annual COD w/ season pass and BR mode.

I laughed when Chris Judge said that and he’s damn right. Sales =/= good game unless you’re a suit or investor, and surprise, I don’t give a shit what someone who’s probably never played a video game thinks makes a good game (it’s not battlepasses, skinner boxes, and FOMO).

I watch it annually (for the game reveals and occasional Warframe announcements, and it’s just 1 night a year). It’s just been trailers interspersed with awards, celeb cameos, and the odd live performance for a while now. Not sure why people get upset about it, apart from being mad their game didn’t get X award. It’s never gonna be the Oscar’s, and I don’t want it to be. I want Kojima to come on stage and ramble about his new game for 10 minutes without actually saying shit.

Edit: I read the article and they make fair points. They’re right that it should give more time to creators to make an acceptance speech. And the Muppets thing is always just odd.

Yeah. This one caught my eye. My friends and I are looking forward to it.

Similar issues in the US. It’s a hard line of work to get into. Then again, you probably don’t want just Joe Blow off the street working in Operations or acting as your HP.
