Intel is having a hissy fit.

This from a company that launched their Kaby Lake X series not with solder on the die, but with fucking thermal paste, so they could save... what, 40 cents per $1000 processor? Fuck Intel with a boiling hot glue gun.

This game isn't even played. I think only roughly 500 people are playing this, right? Why double price, instead of cut in half.

Tried Anarki last night. I mean, I have like 40,000 favor, but the whole renting for 24 hours thing really bothers me. Were it "rent for 60 in-game minutes" or "5 matches" I'd be down with it, but 24 hours feels like I need to be around to play to get value. Which may be what they want, but for me personally, rather than incentivize me to play more it incentivizes me to rent less. I don't want to feel like not playing one more match means I'm missing out on something.

Also, I hated Anarki. Not being able to open an empty map to get a feel for the character you just rented is dumb.

Oh that's super weird, I played in the one two weeks ago and now this one. Never had to rent or unlock though I understand that's how the final game will be.

I started off playing only Slash but the wide health differences between her and the heavies was pretty annoying and un-quake like. Now I'm playing Visor to essentially have the same speed but with a little more health and armor.

Pretty much agree with everything in your post there Beamer...

But one technical aspect,

Since they're not all unlocked (and I'm now level 10 without having played a single other hero), it's hard to really know what you're up against: you need to play as a hero to really get it.

At least the past two betas (maybe more) have had all of the heroes available, none of them are locked down.

Man, I remember playing this in the 90s on America Online; I had no idea it was still going strong. Graphics look a lot better than I remember too ;-)

The game needs some fine tuning but, overall, they've done a good job with it.

Hmm, any idea why Valve would be instituting this change now? Given all the work that goes into increasing your ranking, I'm not immediately seeing why someone would want multiple accounts, or why it would be a problem for Valve.

I also have a much smaller msata drive (salvaged from a dead NUC) that houses my Microsoft Store games, because they don't accurately report the space they eat to the OS. Gears 4, Forza Horizon 3 and Killer Instinct eat up the entire damn thing though, so I'm probably gonna be upgrading it if I'm still occasionally playing Gears when Crackdown 3 comes out. Although to be fair, KI's probably first on the chopping block.

Not sure how they're completely screwed when they're getting refunds?

Got an original pebble (from the first kickstarter) and a time steel. They're still working fine.
When they eventually break I'll look to see what else is out there, but currently if I want another waterproof, lightweight, always on display and a 7 day battery life on a smart watch there isn't one.

Agreed! Dishonored 2 is GOTY for me,

if anyone's on the fence about this title, it's currently 32 dollars on origin when you use the code TITAN20 at checkout; it stacks with the current black friday sale.

Wow that price didn't take long to come down.
Is the game popular online?

The game that did everything right and gamers still managed to make poor choices.

I love how no-one in this topic is giving activation any grief.

Actually, three people did. You included.

In this case its not microsofts fault the UWP platform supports playing with other PC's (and xbox's for that matter); activision chose not to include it. Microsoft also offered up the refunds with no stress straight up with no fuss and next to no internet prompting.

but its cooler to troll MS right? who needs the truth?

Microsoft should refuse to allow the game on the platform without PC support or at the very least warn people on the store page. Imagine buying a pair of scissors only to find out they don't cut 99% of paper. As it stands it's not acceptable to simply offer a refund after the fact.
