The Order: 1886 is getting trashed in reviews. Weak story, the shooting bits are OK, there's hardly any actual gameplay, etc.

A very safe skip.

Already did and it does. But they really made Rome a shithole- they have a new wall around half of the inner city. The outer city is completely abandoned to ruins. Those beautiful outer defenses and buildings you see in Rome II are in shambles from the decline of the empire.

Current gen console gaming is cool because I bought Sniper Elite 3 for 10 bucks on the Xbone and it downloaded while I was in class.

Killing missile troops and war machines with vicious dogs really was the best part of Rome 2.

Aye plus as long as the handlers don't die they are like free troops. Just wish they would bring back incendiary pigs, with the fire mechanics they would have a purpose other than confusing the enemy before a battle.

It was a joke until Steam really took off and PC gaming had a resurgence. Before that, PC gaming was down to World of Warcraft and RTS games.

Yeah and it's totally hilarious

That Yahtzee guy did a bunch of videos making fun of how elitist PC gamers could be and sarcastically called them the "PC Gaming Master Race" so a bunch of people reappropriated the phrase in the finest of tumblr traditions

This more general, but a lot of PC games are really dragged down by horrid optimization.

My laptop is in no way a powerhouse, but it can play games like Metal Gear Rising, Ground Zeroes, Shadows of Mordor, Skyrim crammed to the brim with mods, and a slew of other very pretty and complex games on medium settings just fine. But then I load up Far Cry 4, Dying Light, Witcher 2, or Dragon Age: Inquisition (which runs on lowest, but looks like a PS2 game when you do), and they all run like dogshit even at the lowest settings and the lowest resolution available. And they really aren't any prettier or CPU intensive than most of the games that run just fine.

This just smacks of devs who don't give a poo poo about their playerbase except for the small percentage with unnecessary $1000+ gaming rigs.

Like 1000 dollars is some unattainable goal to be able to play modern games. The whole PC master race thing is annoying but also people acting like gaming on PC is impossible without dropping thousands of dollars. Save some money for once and you, too, can have ab awesome PC.

lol yes how hard could it possibly be for a game/driver to run well on the bazillions of hardware combinations these cheeto dust covered nerds have in their basements.

I like how people compare making the games of today today to the low fidelity garbage that came out decades ago.
