If the only thing you come away with is "pay to win" after reading the PC Gamer review, you're being obscenely obtuse, ignorant, and willfully ignoring the words posted not just in the review, but even the little snippet I quoted.

Damn, game kept locking up and then my screen would go black and it would come back only to do it again. Then it sent my video card into a crashing fit ending with a blue screen. Last game this happened to me with was Bastion and I never got it working despite upgrading various drivers.

Hopefully getting the newest video driver will fix this and not be Bastion all over again for me

Really didn't want to deal with this stuff today (or ever).

Not that I doubt Ill love this game and think it was worth every penny. But I just realized its cheaper on Steam and I would have saved a few bucks had I not pre-ordered directly from them. I feel kind of duped.

Not everyone that posts is interested in justifying or debating their opinions with you or any of the other retards looking to nit-pick every little thing someone says.

He says he has tried the game, in general doesn't like MMO's and GW2 did nothing for him. End of story. He doesn't have to justify his opinion to the likes of you or anyone else.

Kind of like not everyone posting is interested in getting immature attitude and hostility all the time from "you and the other retards around here" ...

Errr that was the whole cause for disagreement, he didn't say anything at all about his hands on time. I'm sure most of us would love to hear about it given how stringent the NDAs for this game have been up to this point. "I like chicken" is an opinion but generally it helps when people put a little more substance into these things.

Sorry I didn't mean to offend you by not liking what you like and discussing it in the relevant post. In the future I'll be sure I only post if I like something.

Who said you offended me? I'm just wondering why you thought your personal opinion was relevant when you admitted that it had nothing to do with the quality of the game and everything to do with your own video-gaming biases.

So you guys wouldn't wager that 10% of pirates would purchase if piracy wasn't an option?

You think 10% is too high?



As for where millions come from, go to a major torrent site and look and see how many downloaded the game.

Mr. Beamer, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

How is Skyrim still doing this???

I mean...I do have a couple hundred hours in the game but...doesn't everyone have it by now???

I don't have it on PC.....was hoping for another update, sale, and some DLC.....oh, and I need a new computer to play it properly.

And does anyone notice it is beating a FREE game. hhahahahaah

There was, for a long, LONG time, multiple companies dedicated to renting out movies. There still are, in different formats.

Your naive few of this situation is exactly what I expect developers/publishers see as well. I hope you understand that all these games I buy were purchased new. They're not bootlegged copies, they're not pirated copies. They're the games you sell. It's not me you need to worry about, it's the customers you seem to think so little of that will turn on you.

I didn't know who she was, has she done much in the UK? I can confirm that that is a cleavage. Not a fan of that look where the shirt potatoes are pushed up hard and form a top edge though!

I never played this back in the day but I hope this will be an HD update to the older game, that would be fun to play it and see what all the fuss was about.

@Tumbler, here is your chance to check it out for almost no cost....
Not a bad deal for 2 classic games

I haven't really been following this very closely but I thought the whole point was revisiting a lot of the old artwork, animations and stuff? Pretty much everything else is covered in extensive modpacks with prebuilt installers and everything these days.

Primarily because this is not a polygon game that uses textures.

HAHAHA wow... only polygon based games use textures? WOW.

Just because it's a 2d sprite doesn't mean it doesn't have a texture applied to it. Just because it's a tile based engine doesn't mean those tiles are not textured. Essentially it's the art assets that NEED to be enhanced, the core gameplay mechanics are still solid even if dated, and the story needs no edits.

Yes, I understand it's expensive as hell to redo it, but if you weren't redoing the aspect of the game that can benefit the most from being enhanced... then what is really being sold?

Well if you ever get fed up with Chrome, both IE and FF have copied their plugin isolation approach now so that can't happen anymore (plugins run inside their own executable container separate from the browser). I've always found Chrome really fast until I get a lot of tabs open then it seems to need restarts a lot. To be fair though I had that issue with FF for many versions too. I need a little app that auto-closes unpinned tabs after awhile, I keep way too many open.

Yeah; I'm also wondering why people keep asking for high resolution textures.

...because that's really the only major thing left to enhance?
