Unfunny Poster posted:Aren't the Witcher games significantly different from the books? As in, the protagonist in the Witcher books is actually Ciri but in the games they focus on Geralt. Ciri might have her own books, but no. Geralt is the main character. The main difference is really that the original writer takes no part in the games. The games start after the books end. And Ciri is pretty much the main character in W3, you're just a dad looking for and helping your daughter out.

Mistle posted:I'm iffy about the business design, but overall, I approve this concept. On one hand, they can expand the game beyond the initial intended collection of maps should it be a game with enough attention, the episodic release means they have consistent work at the studio instead of a cycle of crunch and rest, and since the team is in constant contact with the game and its assets, they get familiar with it, they get to know other departments, and I think most importantly, the design of the game is consistent even if some key members come and go, because the level-to-level transition would be gradual enough and the engine is more or less done. Yeah, I just feel Hitman was already 90% made and then decided to be chopped up into episodes which is a bad idea. Just plan from the start to make it episodic and work around that sort of focus, rather than just doing the former. Nasgate posted:Ciri might have her own books, but no. Geralt is the main character. Gotcha. I really liked the story in Witcher 3 and to be honest would love for Ciri to get her own game. She's a pretty sweet character to play as and her sections were pretty awesome overall.

So I bought the digital version of Witcher 3 with the Expac pass, so I'm assuming the expansion content is basically already in the game. I don't know how to confirm this, and I don't wanna go to the wiki and get spoiled. Where does the Hearts of Stone content kick off at, without spoiling much? I'm in Velen right now, for reference.

You should already have the quest telling you what to do/where to go in your journal if it's installed. You probably want to be level 30-ish before you do it.

I think he's referring to how the primary debut footage was of the multiplayer. However, instead of waiting for the singleplayer footage that did eventually show up people flipped the hell out, so that's still sort of on the fans too lol

Approaching a reboot of a decades-old franchise with extreme skepticism is generally the correct move, and I'm glad DO4M is an exception

The only part that's done is already playable. Its like Early Access if you want to look at it that way.  bloodychill posted:Can someone explain the Retard # thing Black Baby Goku tried REALLY hard to troll the Doom thread, over and over and over until he got probated for it and a mod changed his name to it, and finally it just become a thread in-joke.

The Hitman formula also works way, way better as individual episodes instead of making it level-progression-based like Absolution did so even if they did do that I don't know if that's a bad thing.

Yeah it actually works really well, I have a few friends who expressed the same "episodic is dumb!!  " viewpoint, and after I sat them down and was like "how is this bad? Its like early access?" they didn't really have anything to say about it. I can understand being afraid of DLC and monetization and stuff, but really, it fits Hitman pretty well.

Yo, people playing Overwatch and feeling like they can't play with friends: what are you playing on? There's a PS4 community Goonerwatch where you can find parties, and if you post your tags then more people will be able to play with you. You are literally saying I have no one to play this game with to a room of people willing to play with you. I'm lukewarm on the TMNT game but I'll probably grab it on a sale. The idea of playing it with friends sours when each friend has to buy a copy at full price. RIP couch co-op. Also the second Dungeons and Dragons arcade game was the best beat em up, hands down end of discussion. It's laughable that you think Turtles in Time comes close, but some people think steaks should be cooked until they are grey so broken brains exist and would explain your opinion.

Zaphod42 posted:GG Xrd is great but for first time fighting game players I wouldn't recommend it. There's so many deep mechanics like different color roman cancels, and each character is practically a whole other fighting game. Plus the slick 2D/3D animation looks fantastic but at least for me, can make it kinda hard to tell exactly where hitboxes are. I still would say Xrd because of the tutorials (especially with the new stylish mode to ease in new players) and that it's a much much better game than MKX

yeah, but for some reason I thought that there would be the ability to import your party to a group in the game. Like how steam works. I don't know. I thought that rainbow 6 siege worked that way, but I am probably confused.
