Gort posted:Yeah, the combat rebalance mod one of the developers made. Witcher 2 is fine without that mod, and I'd recommend skipping it for a first playthrough - it makes some nice changes like giving you all of the top Witcher talent tree, but also breaks some things, like most alchemy recipes are now gained from a talent instead of buying from a vendor, which makes some quests impossible to complete until you get the talent. I recently replayed it and answered this as well to another goon asking about the mod: PlushCow posted:I recently re-played Witcher 2 on PC with the Combat Rebalance Mod, previously played on the xbox 360, and I say you're probably better off skipping it for your first or only playthrough.

EightDeer posted:Are any of the "Choice of" text adventures worth playing / any good? Given that the last ones I played were the loving Heroes Rise series, which are 100% garbage, I'm reluctant to try them. I liked Mecha Ace for the couple of bucks I paid for it, but I'm a Gundam fan. It's reasonably short but is well written and manages to support a reasonable range of mecha styles from "you're all basically grunts and everybody dies" to "you're an insane dude with a laser sword who wins through the power of hot-headedness."

Wiggly Wayne DDS posted:All I remember about Tallgeese was that he would invade people worlds under a dumb persona, make himself a friendly phantom then gently caress with people's games testing things. He would tell the thread that he was doing it with friend's games, but there was more than one time I saw him in some random guy's blind playthrough loving with things. The guy playing would be very confused at someone forcing themselves into their game and things happening. The name I used at any given moment was based on what armor and weapon I was using that day, and was meant to look like an NPC name for fun. It worked quite well, many people thought I was a hidden NPC until they actually checked their recent players list. Eventually, people made up this story that when I was wearing Silver Knight armor I was out to co-op, and when I was wearing Black Knight armor I was out to kill your NPCs (which I have never done once). The truth is that there was no "persona" or anything like that, that whole notion was a rumor that gained traction for some reason. As for my testing... The only things I tested without asking were inconsequential things that I knew in advance were completely harmless, thanks to earlier testing in which I asked for volunteers. I mixed that sort of harmless testing in with my usual co-op routine, so unless I confirmed I was testing something you really wouldn't know if I was at the moment.

Managed to slog through Watch_Dog's main campaign, groaning through most of it, but I didn't really hate the gameplay. That said, I don't know how soon I should start the separate Bad Blood DLC, if at all. Anyone here put themselves through it? How is it?

The combat is still pretty bad with the mod, and the mod breaks a bunch of poo poo and fucks up item progression and does a lot of other lovely stuff. It's really bad. Like if it was just the changes to the combat it might be ok, but it's really barely an improvement to begin with and definitely not worth loving up all the other stuff. e: seriously don't use the mod for your first playthrough, it's garbage.

I think that was his interview with Nerdist, which is kind of eerie to listen to in the wake of the paid mod scandal because he spends like half interview talking about monetizing content and giving sloppy blowjobs to the "maker" scene.

I got a coupon for 50% off Out There: Omega Edition by crafting a badge, but only one guy on my friend list has it and he hasn't played it yet. Any opinions? It looks like a pretty nice FTL-esque roguelite, especially for $5.
