Further musings on The Order... I am now at Chapter 15 of 26. For an Alt-History Steampunk setting, the guns have (so far) been EXTREMELY tame, (and very few.) There are things to pick up and look at from time to time, but nearly all of them are just pointless photos and news clippings. It's like RAD just wanted to show off their item-modeling. [edit] Also there is one stealth section about halfway through that is SO poorly designed you will have to replay it several times.

My girlfriend went shopping with her mother today. They went to Wal-Mart to get some hair dye. GF's mother stopped by Electronics to pick up The Order. According to my gf this conversation actually happened: Walmart Drone: You know this game is only 6 hours long right? GF's mom: That's fine, when I'm done I'll just give it to her. So in a couple days I'll probably get to experience the glorious Order: 1886 for myself (and then trade it in for Majora's Mask 3D  )

Gamefly, no sweat. I thought I read 26. I'd be fine with it being over. It's been entertaining, in a manner of speaking.

Did you guys find just about any part where enemies had explosives extremely annoying? Anytime they have rockets or mortars or whatever I seem to die out of nowhere 10 times before I get the right guy.

It was 2 sittings of decent fun. I'd love to know what my game time was. I guarantee it was NOT 8 hours. I will say I liked that no one is really mustache-twirlingly evil. You don't see that in games much anymore.

Unless you're specifically making a joke about The Order being bad or only interesting to young people, in which case I have no rebuttal. But yeah there are like people who are 50 and 60 that play video games.

Combat just seems janky with no heft to it. Playing it solo, the character switch stuff really gets on my nerves. Cruise ship was a way better setting, too. Also, holy poo poo Moira has the worst lines ever. And that's in a series with stuff like "master of unlocking" (I do get that RE1's script is actually very good schlock and I will always love if for that.)

ImpAtom posted:It looks like I got it but I had to restore my licenses and then manually start it downloading from the webstore. This didn't work for me. I'd get an error when trying to restore licenses. Apparently this happened to a lot of people with DB Xenoverse and RE Revelations 2. I'll post the workaround I saw on the playstation support forums in case anyone else is having issues: Use the web store. There should be 3 listings for RE Rev 2. You want to select the one that's called RESIDENT EVIL REVELATIONS 2. It should be 6.1 GB. The other listing is for the complete season pass, that is what's causing the error apparently. You can't dl it at all. The other listing is the DLC Raid stage, that should work. Pick just those two and download to your PS4. It should start right away. I've got the DLC stage and the main game downloading to my PS4 now, should be done in another hour or so so I'll update if that actually worked. Also the DB Xenoverse bonus was showing as "waiting" but then it changed to "playable" but I never got a notice about it on my PS4. I better not get screwed out of my extra dress up options  EDIT dl'ing from the web store worked. Hopefully they clear up the issue with the season pass before next week.

I'm getting distorted sound from my PS4, but only on certain Blu-rays and DVDs. It's not happening on any games that I have noticed, though I haven't been gaming a lot on it. The distortion is really noticeable on Led Zeppelin's "DVD" and my Blu-ray of Dream Theater Live at the Budokan, and it's there regardless of whether I have the sound set to stereo or 5.1. The issue is not there on my Blu-ray of Led Zeppelin's The Song Remains the Same, or my Blu-ray of the broadway cast of Rent. Has anyone else encountered an issue like this? It's frustrating the hell out of me, given its apparent erratic nature and its prevention of me enjoying certain discs.

Resogun and Injustice made it worth it for me this year so far, it's mostly lovely indies though (im sure theres lots of people who like some psplus games besides resogun and injustice but I Think they all suck dick) That's fine, because you should never pay more than $40 for it.

Here's the weird thing. I've just A/B'd the sound between TV speakers and the bookshelf speakers connected to my amp, and it's not doing it with the TV speakers. But the distortion is still only there with certain discs, and not at all from non-PS4 sources, which means it can't just be that the amp or speakers are screwed. I have a cable from the TV's audio output going to the RCA input on the back of my amp (Naim Nait 5). Through this connection my satellite box sounds fine, as does most stuff from the PS4, with some glaring exceptions.

dat one portagee posted:For those that have played the dragon age games how does inquisition compare to origins? I'm considering buying it while its on sale. DA:I is fine as long as you don't play it like Skyrim. Because despite all their efforts, Bioware made a really loving dull and lifeless open world that is not worth exploring in the least. If you try to play through it as quickly as possible instead of being a completionist nut you will enjoy the game more and can always go back in the post game to explore crap if you really want to.
