I really want to be excited for this but there's this nagging voice in the back of my head that keeps saying "feature creep ruins everything". Based on a few of the things I've read and after what they did in DA:I I'm worried they're going to add a ton of annoying resource gathering/management and superficial base building crap.

It was a minor skirmish to the Turians. For humans it was a huge deal.

FronzelNeekburm posted:The Reapers came from the Milky Way Galaxy and, as far as we know, have stayed there. Or maybe not! Who knows? The Reapers have supposedly been around for about a billion years. That's more than enough time for them to have a presence in a lot of nearby galaxies. It would be weird if their primary directive was "preserve all intelligent life...only in this galaxy though."

Torrannor posted:It was a flawed AI built by a Milky Way empire. It's not inconceivable that there's a directive like "safeguard against organics-AI wars in this galaxy",or "in our (Leviathan's) sphere of influence" (which means the Milky Way again). Never underestimate the ability of a game developer to make inexplicably terrible decisions. Like, I don't think they will put Reapers in as a major plot point but I won't be surprised if they do.

I think the asses shown in the trailers have been really top notch. Bioware is definitely stepping up it's butt game. Any word on if the engine supports jiggle physics?

Skippy McPants posted:Or any Ubisoft game made in the last seven years or so. I don't get why game devs keep packing more and more collectible bullshit into their games. I'm not sure I've ever spoken to someone who actually enjoys collections. It's always a refrain of "I don't enjoy it, but my completionist ODC won't let me ignore all that poo poo on my mini-map!" It's the worst thing in RPGs. It started out where if you'd collect all these things you'd get some kind of upgrade or a new item or it would unlock a quest. Now it's just collect them so it says 10/10 instead of 3/10.

As long as I can cheat engine away all the resource gathering/base building poo poo, it tells a decent story and isn't riddled with bugs I'm sure it will be a perfectly average game.

I'm a little concerned it'll be really glitchy. I noticed a few in the recent videos and if they're sneaking into promotional stuff it's makes me wonder what it's like when they're not putting their best foot forward.

Kainser posted:Yeah, I'm fine with crafting just being for making your character a beautiful butterfly. Keeping that up with all party members would be a pain as it was in DAI in my opinion. Crafting in games is a pet peeve of mine. Why have it at all? Why not just have store and customize stuff there rather than adding the extra step? Collecting materials just makes games feel like work.

DancingShade posted:Don't worry too much. If it's anything like DA:I the preorder and DLC gear will be best in slot for various upgrade tiers anyway so you can pretty much ignore upgrading for long stretches of the game. Then when you do just filter through all your inventory crap for the minor +1 helmet. Oh I'll cheat engine it all away in like 10 minutes. It's just inexplicable to me that they put these crafting systems in games that have no business having one. Especially in Bioware games. It makes zero sense that the ace specialist combat commando squad is spending any time at all running around mining and picking flowers.

DancingShade posted:I just had a mental image of commandos in iraq spending most of their patrols collecting particular shards of glass and pockets full of "special sand" to refine back at the base in the 3D printer to make themselves slightly better rifle scopes. Major, we've found Al-Zarqawi. We need your team to go get him before he moves again. Now, down the hall you'll find a weapons shop, I hope you've been saving, I know the army doesn't pay well but you'll need every cent. If you require any modifications, here are some specs on how to craft them and our recon team has identified these locations as good places to find the raw materials for them. Good luck soldier!

Nerds really have no impulse control at all do they? Just wait a week after it's been out, read what people say about it and if they don't say it's a buggy mess then buy it. If not, wait a month for it to be patched and then buy it.

LITERALLY MY FETISH posted:So it sounds like maybe they did take a page out of TW3's book? I mean, what people ITT complain about is how much better TW3 looks, and even as someone who bounced off of witcher games in general I'd agree to that, but they're not talking about graphics there so much as making sure everything you do is enjoyable regardless of the scope of content. All the way to the people being people at the top.

Rabid Snake posted:I've probably made a big mistake preordering, but if the multiplayer is as anything like ME3, then it's worth the money. It would be worth the same amount of money if you bought it after it had been released and confirmed to be good/bad/broken but now you've just gambled with that money for no good reason. I don't understand you or people like you. Even if the money is nothing to you it's still, just, why? It hurts my brain trying to understand why people do this.

By bonuses do you mean a couple of textures for like $20? E:Oh ok, that's the difference between standard and deluxe editions. Pre-order gets you a suit of armor and some multiplayer xp boosters. Which won't mean gently caress all if the game isn't good and very little if it is. Funky See Funky Do fucked around with this message at 00:12 on Mar 14, 2017 |

Panzeh posted:I liked everything about witcher 3 but the gameplay and the trend where the game kinda got over geralt's head and eventually he just wasn't very useful to the plot. It was just, was he a good dad to ciri or not. It's weird playing someone less relevant to the plot like that. I don't know if it's a good kind of weird. But overall I got really tired of the combat and finished the game on youtube. The writing is great though and significantly better than the first two, where they really had to hammer in the factions and that the witcher really is just a neutral dude and he's cool and badass for it. Probably more about American sexual mores considering that's the main market. It's not that you can't see a penis it's that you don't see any genitals at all but there's plenty of bare chested men.

That he seems to have a bland and boring personality. I dunno, the voice acting in the loyalty mission we saw felt really matter-of-fact and emotionless. Actually most of the voice acting I've heard seems that way.

Pawl posted:If youre worried about realism then you shouldnt play a game where people have magic powers Eh sorta but in sci-fi there has to be at least veneer of realism based in current scientific knowledge. If it's something we can do today then it's something they could do in a futuristic setting. Like having the Pathfinder team running around scanning things. gently caress off, they'd have drones for that/it'd be completely automated.

FunkMonkey posted:You know you can't trust probes to do a good job; their kind has always been lazy and shiftless. I'm no racist, but even I know element zero yields always come back a little "under expected parameters" when a probe is sent out for the survey. Send a human out when you want a job done right, that's all I'm saying. #Cerberus The same humans that are as likely to try to gently caress the ore as mine it? All their samples being contaminated does kinda explain why Cerberus was constantly in a state of failure.
