Gotcha.

Not getting shafted by MS again with the "early access" bollocks. They did me good and hard with Forza Motorsport. I'll wait for impressions off users here, its the only safe way these days.

Love the POE games, a Shame that for some reason they will not do a physical version....

Still looking forward to playing the game

Crazy that this is getting launched within a week. It felt ages away after the last previews.

Maybe I shouldn't have started rebirth!

Well, IGN has jack shit about this game. Not much hype going on.

That does make me wonder if it is a turkey.

Where are all the videos?

Edit: Ok. IGN does have the videos on YouTube, but not their website.

One thing I notice is that the game is kinda janky. They need to shake out some graphical bugs.

Even the developer admits this. The game is not broken, just a little wobbly.

Great OT, thanks mate.

First thing i'm going to do is disable almost all the HUD, except my hp and ammo/magic counter. The HUD they showed in previews looks too much for my taste.

Also 60fps mode for me, can't wait!

You didn’t learn your lesson from Indiana Jones? 🤣

There are always exceptions and Indiana Jones was a great game I admit. But this game has already shown many signs of DEI as well as their previous game. The pronouns for example when making the character is not a good sign.

Let's see what happens, time will tell.

Btw, its funny that you look my message history, I (unlike leftists) dont have issues admitting when I am wrong

The game does seem to have those hooks in it that make you want to keep on playing.

Also, that game lets you be a total bastard if you want to. Unlike Veilgaurd.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
This is the game where they said you could play through the entire thing in third person mode, right? First person games kinda make me nauseous these days, so I may check this out if I can play it without getting sick.

The game does not seem to be hugely demanding on hardware, which is good.

So far, I have not had a game that makes my PC choke. I kind of worry my CPU will be a bottleneck at some point.

This Alienware will not let me upgrade the CPU. I wonder if someone has a hack for that.

The pronouns in the character creator is pretty much the only thing on the inclusive side of things, and it’s a completely optional toggle.

So…basically nothing.

Their last two games were Grounded and Pentiment. Just for the record.

When did you admit you were wrong about Indiana Jones?
It was just snarky posts from you up until release and you found it was a pretty good game. Then you played it.

The more important thing is really about how you apparently don’t learn lessons.

I'm a bit afraid of the usual UE5 performance kneecap but oh well, it is what it is. If they managed 60 fps on series X, 40 fps on series S, then It should be not too bad. They apparently improved quite a lot since the past previews.

This will be my next game after I finish Farcry New Dawn, I should be finished by the time Avowed is released.
I put Indy Great Circle aside for a while after I completed the Giza area. I'll finish Indy up after I get a feel of Avowed.

delays game for polish

1 week before launch "accept the jank"
Click to expand...



The context is just a minnmax interview where he also asked her what her favorite games are (OMG ! different answers than Avowed???) if she's fine with a little jank, that peoples are extrapolating to Avowed. Is she wrong?

The previews from over 2 months ago almost everyone said its polished as fuck.

Games have all a little bit of jank. KCD, STALKER, Witcher 3 are the definition of euro-jank. A game without any bit of jank is too much into simulations and then you have peoples complain its too slow, Red Dead Redemption 2 comes to mind (still with jank).
