The market is soaring like a flight of Eagles despite everything that some politically motivated boneheads have done to try and sink the markets (if not the economy) in their idiotic desire to try and make the current Presidential administration look bad in an election year...;)

Yeah, because this administration doesn't look bad all by itself.

LMAO

Just stick with heterocubic upscaling, no need to get weird.

Thing is, from what I've heard EA's games still require Origin to launch (SWToR doesn't require it normally, so I assume that one's an exception).

May as well just keep purchasing on Origin. imo.

One less company that has my credit card info. That's why.

And cheaters. Its the worst FPS to play online right now

Which is why I hardly play online anymore. Sad.

Also sad most companies can't seem to beat the cheaters. Or don't hardly even try.

Cool! So a "whites only expo" is fine then, because it doesn't mean "Fuck all the other colors". Right?

Who would have thought that this could be this badly mismanaged ….

People like me with common sense that didn't pay a dime for this BS?

LOL

So I downloaded it and can't even login to create an account. Just says "error during login" or whatever. And it doesn't have a way to let me exit from that. Have to bring up task manager and kill it.

Brilliant.

So, can you imagine the storage requirements for a game like that?

That's why I haven't downloaded this.

Why is it I haven't seen the cheating on PC Fortnite yet most other companies can't achieve the same?

I don't get the motion blur fetish.

It's always the first thing I disable.

Shorter game times surprised me at times but are also welcomed. With the amount of back log that it's easy to accumulate these days, where in the heck can anyone find all the time to get through and literally beat every title in their library? 6-10 hours is my perfect game time of how long a game should be. Just enough to get out before it either gets boring/repetitive or eats up too much time I can put into another one of my other games.

Yeah, 1st world problems.

Uh, 6 to 10 hours? Okay. Maybe if the game cost 6 to 10 dollars.

If Epic started using their money to fund a 30-day refund policy (which could work because they have the power to remove games from people's libraries), I would start buying from Epic. I'm not even kidding. Valve's refund policy sucks! GOG's is awesome but it's a DRM-free thing and they don't have a big library of big budget titles. If Epic did that THAT would be a game changer and it would attract way more consumers than freebies.

I have a crap ton of Steam games and I've never desired a refund. Why is that so important to you? If you research the games and read the reviews provided by Steam, it's hard to go wrong most of the time.

Uh, a bonus is supposed to be just that. A bonus.

If you have take a lower salary to get the bonus, then it ain't a bonus.

Duh.

Oops, wrong thread.

Not tooting my own horn or anything, but if anyone has contacts in the entertainment industry, I really think they should hear this. They're preaching to the choir, and putting up fences to keep out anyone who might learn something about the president they normally wouldn't hear. Late night is a very accessible place for households to be awoken, where normally they only watch Fox News, they only have conservative Sinclair-owned local stations, and everyone in their town is already conservative. All of late night's good deeds summarizing the hilariously crooked deeds, actions, and words of the president end up being regressive to their cause when spiked with personal attack poison. Next time they hear the same argument about something Trump did being immoral, criminal, uncaring, or just plain wrong... they'll just flash back to the fancy New York comedian who said his kid was ugly, and they'll actively block out any further factual avenue of advance.

Umm, you do realize that they're in the entertainment industry and trying to make ratings / money.

Right?

I didn't realize that one of their business mission statements was to get rid of the rich material they've had to work with - Donald Trump.

Maybe you can point out to all of us where that business goal is documented.

Too bad they can't add something as simple as filtering out an already-played game. I guess that's 22nd century tech.

Such a weird business plan. Nothing they've done so far has made me want to spend a penny.

I'll take it of course.

I guess they'll make it up in volume

So this is the difference for me between Steam and Epic.

Epic - I download their free games.

Steam - I read the reviews on their site, I see a decent price, and I buy it there. Bought the gold version.

Well, since this thread has gone totally political, I may as well add my two cents.

Trump is the worst president ever, and yet he's going to get re-elected because the Dumbocrats have lost their collective minds. Apparently you have to be 70+ to be a moderate and if you're young you need to be hard left. Neither of which is good for a general election.

It's as plain as day that the current trajectory will lead to another Trump victory and the Dumbs are on rails they can't deviate from. And what's funny about that is if you go to a site like Democratic Underground they don't even talk about it. They just keep putting up article after article about how dumb / evil Trump is.

One thing about the Republicans - they don't eat their own the way the Dumbs insist on doing. SMH.
