I can't get the damn launcher to launch, let alone try to get into the game itself...

The game is mediocre at best.

It's only saving grace, and the only real reason to play the game, "The Foundry" isn't even implemented yet.

For those who haven't read a damn thing about the game, "The Foundry" is an editing tool that will allow DM's to create their own dungeons and story's for other people to play through.

That is the only thing I can see giving this game any longevity and it's not even ready yet.

it doesn't seem to matter what game we're talking about on blues, someone has the blues about it. Every. Single. Game.

Can you show me one game that every single person loves?
Not on Blues in general I mean.

Well, I haven't bought any EA games in a while, but not specifically because of Origin. Although, it is a negative in the consideration process. I wanted SimCity to be good despite the online stupidity. It wasn't, and I haven't purchased it.

I really wanted to try Syndicate, but after the reviews and requiring origin, I couldn't be bothered.

A nice article from some stock brokers that pretty much share my view on EA. They're heading for extinction if nothing is done soon.

Hey Aliens? Star Trek is trying hard to make you look better:

This is graphics fail - no screenshot can make your ears bleed like Chris Pine's voice acting does

Looks like Spock found a new and interesting way to mind meld.

For anyone who's played the original DI, was co-op ever fixed? I do remember there being a big issue where people weren't able to connect to each other or if they did, sometimes they would get booted out a few minutes after connecting.

At the time, it was very annoying to not be able to play with friends and I pretty much stopped playing at that point. I also don't remember getting any new updates for the original DI so I'm not sure if that was ever fixed. There were a lot of threads about this issue with no replies from the developer. It's a shame because the game seemed like it was fun but just the general bugginess of the game stopped me from playing after a while.

IT'S A VIDEO GAME for cryin' out loud!!! The game forces you to kill people too in order to progress through the game, but that's okay? Let's put things into perspective here you morons, and get a life!!!

Well, on one hand, I could see some of the "dumbed down" people arguing that they shouldn't have to make this choice and should be able to just mow their way into Columbia.

But that ruins all the story, all the prologue, goes against anything your character would do because at this point he isn't expecting violence and isn't the one that starts the violence, and your character isn't happy about the baptism, either.

Plus, who cares? People can dunk me in the water, that doesn't mean anything about me has changed (which may be a theme...)



Maybe the issue is that the guy in the story is too stupid to understand that not every game is a role playing game. In some games you play a role. In some games you control one aspect of an already defined character on an already defined path. You aren't Booker DeWitte, you're someone looking through Booker DeWitte's eyes.

It’s another when a game is released and its utter shit and almost beyond playability. That is Dark Souls, Utter shit.

This is the part of the haters' argument I just don't understand. I had zero issues with this game other than the crappy resolution, which was fixed by a user mod. Once the mod was in place the game looked great and ran great. I put 150 hours into this game and it never crashed on me once. I can't think of any real glitches during gameplay either. It just worked fine. How is it that other people had such a completely opposite experience?

Good god, Darks.

You're also the guy who thinks the ArmA series is complete crap. Funny one of the most PC centric games out there gets ragged on by you.

I think with you it boils down to, "Game complicated. Can't make work. Dumb game.".

Ironically you sound more like the target audience for console gamers.

'Nuff of this no where debate for me.

Things aren't going well for you here Darks, maybe take a step back for a moment and get some perspective. I understand you really liked A:CM and were upset that most of the general press/public didn't but that's life. I've held minority opinions before too and get it. It's not really a comparable situation to this game though. Most people who liked it have been pretty up front about its faults so I don't really get your complaints. Worse, insisting that everyone plays games the same way you do is juvenile and not going to get you anywhere, it's also against the open/customizable spirit of PC gaming in general.

Getting angry and just lashing out at people (even if provoked) just nullifies any legitimate point you're trying to make too.

Incidentally if you actually wanted to play it with a KB/M, there are some fixes for it. If not, fair enough.
