Comrade Fakename posted:Austin Walker at Vice (a pretty firm socialist) has a review up and doesn't have any major criticisms of the story: https://www.vice.com/en/article/pkdy5y/watch-dogs-legion-review. Though in general is review is frustrating because if you follow his work it would seem like WD:L is a game made for him personally, but he's pretty negative based on some rather petty niggles (basically "it's not a realistic vision of a popular movement that can overthrow the government" and "it doesn't totally replicate the full gamut of human emotional interaction", and my response to that would be "no poo poo"). I don't disagree with anything he said tbh. The game still looks like something I would enjoy tho. Austin's problem mostly just seems to be it's like on the precipice of something really really good but doesn't reach it. Which is pretty disappointing. But not outright bad.

I remember thinking Skyrim and/or Saints Row III were overheating my 360 back in the day but it turned out my system was just old and dying. Not to discount everyone having crash issues, this sounds Bethesda-on-console bad, but that breathless tweet about system bricking gave me similar vibes. That, and AC Odyssey still crashes my PS4poor regularly after who knows how many patches. I expected this a little Anyway, I enjoyed this quote from the the RPS review: cheesetriangles posted:And because it all works so well as a great big chaos generator, the worldbuilding ends up feeling superfluous, with its heart in the right place but quite annoying, like a teenager who takes every possible opportunity to mention that they’re a communist.

I took a trip to India and am now watching dogs. Well, benchmarking dogs. It auto set my settings to ultra everything with RTX and DLSS off so I turned those on and am now testing it out.

There's lots of reports of no framerate difference between Low and Ultra for people. The nvidia game ready drivers aren't out yet though, and neither is the game officially.

welp I have a game breaking bug. Quit to main menu doesn't work which means the game isn't autosaving for me now. Every time I load I get sent back to the last plot mission. Hoping it's just due to using a VPN. I was enjoying the game quite a bit up to that point even if it's certainly lighter on plot than previous ones.

There's definitely story but it seems to be similar to Mafia 3 where it's gated behind activities. At least there seems to be a lot more variety in the activities than that game had.

Played a few hours. Got sidetracked into hunting Tech point upgrades when I realised I could commandeer a cargo drone and ride that fucker around the rooftops, dropping my spiderbot in to grab poo poo. I might actually do some quests tomorrow. Game is running alright, considering I have everything turned on, 1440p with DLSS on Balanced, RT on Ultra is getting me ~60fps average, some dips below (notably up high where you can see far), going up to ~90fps in more enclosed places. The plot/writing so far is... uh, like a good British sandwich. Full of ham and cheese. But that's to be expected and it's not offensively bad it's just.. well, the level you'd expect. Actual gameplay wise I am having a ton of fun with the gadgets I have so far, and my Spiderbot bro is excellent.

The AI is goofy but more 'eccentric brit' goofy and not Claptrap-obnoxious goofy. I'm not sure if the 'special' operatives are random or deliberately placed but I've found some cool recruits so far. If you hang around Westminster there's a spy hanging out in the parking lot who has a Bond car with stealth and rockets.

ZombyDog posted:He's your mission giver for everything so far including side quests ( I only got as far as finishing the first primary missions in Camden ). I'd go out on a limb and say that they needed an AI assistant personality with a little more pep than say Siri/Google/Cortana/Alexa, which flies in the face of the grim poo poo you're involved with, and kinda sucks the wind out of those scenes - but if he was a bit more dour he'd be a) boring and b) the game would be getting really depressing, which I think they're trying to avoid. It's tonally weird all over again. i mean i sorta assume he is like a super hacked version of SIRI type AI that got hijacked by dedsec and corrupted. like those chatbots from the olden days but way way less racist.

I've been fighting the urge to watch too much gameplay since my copy won't arrive until Friday at the earliest, but from the few times I've popped into a stream so I can see some of the characters in action... do they all have weird, pitch-shifted voices to avoid sounding like Oblivion/Skyrim NPCs? Because all of the ones I've heard so far sound jarring as hell.

If you don't get a "report crash to ubisoft" dialog when it goes to desktop, it's probably NOT a crash. I suspect the cheat system/DRM decides you have done something bad and just kills the process. There's no trace of a crash in the Windows error logs either. (I did manage to get it to actually crash too, by trying to mess with the Uplay overlay FPS counter. That one threw an error reporting dialog, which is why I suspect these other "crashes" are different) Some more research: Check out the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\logs\launcher_log.txt" file. I suspect there's a line like this one every time the time the game "crashes": code:

lmfao why is there a loving fake episode of The Bugle in this game, complete with what I'm pretty sure is real andy zaltzman??? Even if this poo poo doesn't work at all my wonder at this discovery was worth $15 of ubisoft connect I guess btw, seems to be literally impossible for me to hit 60fps on a Ryzen 3700X and 1060 6gb at 1080p. If that's a deal breaker, I'd stay far away. Doubt it'll ever run better given ubisoft's recent history with open world games that tank PCs. as someone who's spent a combined four weeks in london as a tourist, I can say that this version of london is ridiculously good in my eyes. very odd to be able to navigate down compressed versions of sightseeing walks, whether from trafalgar past somerset house down towards the tate modern, or down brick lane over towards shoreditch. weird!!! abraham linksys fucked around with this message at 07:14 on Oct 29, 2020 |
