On the other hand CABELAS DANGEROUS HUNTS 2013 was very much improved by the addition of dodgerolls

maybe its just funnier to dodge around an angry lion than another generic guard

Having played several MMOs, Guild Wars 2 is the only one I could recommend to another human being in good conscience, and even then with a substantial list caveats. What saves it for me is that its version of open world PvP is really drat good and it has the most elegant and enjoyable RPG combat system I've experienced outside of Dark Souls 1 & 2. Plus it has free updates and no sub fee whatsoever, so I drop it for a few months and pick it up again just like Battlefield or whatever.

yeah origin is perfectly fine imho. the real issue is having to manage yet another friends list
it needs more idiot "social" features imo, like user groups

and optional public user profiles viewable from a normal web browser without logging in so you can show people at a glance how big a pisslord hell fucker you are

at least it's not uplay v:shobon:v

yeah i have quite a few james in my origin library now



i only actually bought rear end erect 3 & the saboteur through origin sales, the rest are either
  • "on the house" titles (dragon age :barf:)

  • whatever crap i got from giving a dollar all to charity in that humble origin bundle

  • cd keys for stuff i already had on steam meaning there's literally no reason to add them to my origin as well but w/e

  • cd keys for literal cds i own, except for some reason my c&c3 one didn't work but my kane's wrath one did? lol


so yeah i'm p. much never going to play any of these on origin except rear end erect 3 & the saboteur

it just scans for its games and probably creates a shortcut to them in origin

maybe it does actually verify ownership and credit to account but i doubt it

you have to be careful of what region you buy from, though, or you could get locked into only being able to play the game in russian or some poo poo
