I actually just started playing this last week and I wish I started playing this sooner. The reason I took so long was because I was afraid of all the things people would say about it such as it being a spreadsheet simulator and the amount of griefing that goes on, but it is not anywhere near as bad as people make it out to be.
The only downside is that there are a LOT of tutorials. I must have read for the majority of my first 15-20 hours of the game, but now that I am out of that phase and flying around it is almost overwhelming the amount of options ahead of me.
And for the record, when I tried to log in this afternoon they had over 50k people logged in =). |

Sorry, but excusing a controller to play a pc game is total garbage. I did not spend a bunch of money on high end pc hardware just so I can excuse a ported game to be played on my pc. Sorry, but that’s absolutely crap and should never be tolerated. I did not buy a pc to turn it into a shitty high-end console.
This is such a silly statement. I don't use my PC for gaming because I want it to be a "shitty high-end console". I use my PC to have more tools available to me. I can choose my own voice chat, I can choose how much power I put into my games with hardware, and guess what? I can choose why kind of control scheme I want to use!
If you want to be stuck in your KB+M only style, that is your choice. Personally I prefer to use the control style that is the best for the actual task at hand. If you refuse to play games like Need for Speed or Street Fighter with your KB+M, that's fine. I'll go enjoy the games because I have the tools that make for a better game experience, which is what PC gaming is all about. Right?
I'll never understood why putting a controller in your hands suddenly makes you a bad PC gamer, and thankfully its a trend that seems to be slipping away. Maybe one day you will get over your odd hatred for controllers. If not, that is fine. I will be out enjoying video games while you complain.
Regarding the port: I honestly didn't think it was that bad. Yes, it could have been MUCH better especially with the frame rate limiting but thankfully someone tossed out that 60fps fix right as the game came out. I loved it and I absolutely cannot wait for DS2 to arrive! |

Yes, but we care. We care that you are being taken advantage of, yet you refuse to understand after we explain it to you. You're being stubborn about it?
One day, should you decide to commit suicide--God forbid you don't--but if you did, would you also say "just don't care" about the people around you you would be affecting by your suicide?
Isn't that a somewhat selfish attitude?
I understand all the facts. You act as if I am ignorant to the situation which I am definitely not. It just isn't something that matters to me. You can fight this fight as it is definitely yours, it just isn't mine.
As far as suicide goes, this is just a video game. Lets try to stay away from the extremes here, even if it is to just make a point. |

Why would you support a company that shoves always-online down your throat for a single-player game? Even if the game became free, you shouldn't support a company that does this. You need to open your eyes a little wider.
Some of us just don't care. I understand it is a strong point for a lot of people around here, but for some of us it just isn't anything that matters. |

in terms of choices (which never pan out)
Secret text below, avoid if you haven't finished the game =).
The choices never pan out because no matter what Booker's choices are, the same conclusion always happens. This is shown early on with the brother and sister scene when the coin always lands on heads. The chalkboard shows all of Booker's coin flips throughout the dimensions.
You can see another example right at the end of the game where you are given the illusion of choice in the plank section. It doesn't matter the choice, the outcome is always the same. |

2. I thought Fisher was on the run & 3rd Echelon was after him? I could be wrong its been awhile since I played the last one.
It's been a while since I beat the latest one as well but from what I remember 3rd Echelon was most likely dissolved after the failed assassination attempt on the president. I saw the E3 conference with Microsoft earlier today and in the Splinter Cell video they mention 4th Echelon which I'm assuming is a new branch that Sam is the head of. I'll try to find the video and come back with it. |

I believe it is. You pre-ordered a product which was then finished and delivered. His end of the contract is completed, what more do you feel you deserve? |

Definitely not capped at 30fps. But as said above, DX11 absolutely cripples even the highest rig.
Also, this is the version to buy if you absolutely LOVE DRM as the Steam version comes with SecuRom, GFWL, and Steamworks. I guess the advantage is everytime I get an achievement I get two popups, one for Steam and one for GFWL!  |

Have you looked in the game? If you go under single player there are challenge modes and there is an option there for co-op too. If you are looking for the new co-op campaign, there is a giant pillar thing that moves down that you have to portal into together in order to get there.
The DLC was applied automatically as an update so if you keep steam open fairly often you most likely already have the DLC installed. |

SWEET!! Zero-day patches! Good job publishers! Way to push your devs so hard they can't even fucking QA their unfinished products! 
It's possible to catch every single bug before release obviously 
I remember the days before the internet. Games had to be as bug-free as possible since patching was almost impossible after the game was shipped. Now with the internet, buggy code is the normal for games since they can patch it up later (if ever...).
The games of today are also infinitely more complicated and running on many more hardware configurations then back in the day as well. |

Assuming they sell 25,000 tickets, they make a little under 4.5 million. Over half of that, if not nearly all, goes towards renting the convention center plus utilities. Remember, this is a technology convention. They have to pay for all the electricities and other utilities they use plus any damages that happen as a result of the convention.
Then you have all of the paid workers who work well beyond the start and end of the event who have to assemble/take apart all of the rented equipment such as stage equipment and lights. Plus they always have a huge guest at the end of the convention. Last year they had Tenacious D. You think they went for less then a million including stage setup and professional lighting? Then you have licensing fees just to broadcast their music over the internet and DirectTV.
Remember, you pay $175 and get the whole experience, but Blizz has to pay for everything right down to the toilet paper. I've helped run events such as these(but of course not on as big of a scale) and they are not cheap by any means.
Plus it's not like I'm saying Blizz goes bankrupt each year on this thing. I'm just saying they don't make money on it. They're allowed to do something fun too aren't they? |

Na, the ticket prices are fine IMO. I think this is one of the only conventions that are completely for the fans. They post the expenses of BlizzCon every year at the place and the ticket sales don't come close to recouping the cost of running the convention.
That plus they can't really advertise because the only people that go to these things are already huge Blizz fanboys and own everything they have to offer which only leaves them doing things to reward the fans for being there.
People like to hate on Blizz, but this convention is one of the reasons why I think they love their fans more then any other company and why I think that Activision doesn't truly have their greedy paws all over the company because I don't think they would allow Blizz to still run this thing if they had full control. |

| It was patched to be optional and made easier later on. When the game was first released it was stupidly hard with no way to skip it or make it easier. |
