Re: Cyberpunk 2077 [PC, PS4, XBone] - out September 17 2020

I actually was not a big fan of Witcher 3, tried playing it for a few hours but just didn't click.

I think this game will hopefully be done better. I hope it's more open world and free to go wherever than forcing you into story line

Re: Elite: Dangerous [PC, PS4, XBone]

Just started dabbling in engineers and ooft this can be a bit tedious and obtuse. Still that extra jump range is nothing to sneeze at..... I posted that guide I am using a few pages back. It's definitely a big time sink to get into engineering. I only have two or three unlocked. I did a ton of mate...

Re: Baldur's Gate 3: developed by Larian Studios

Poor Asherons - a single comment and he has spawned these (in fairness quite interesting) several pages of reponse. Agree with WB on the last point, some people are jerks. It is also very easy to read too much into social media responses. In my experience the old adage about empty vessels making th...

Re: Baldur's Gate 3: developed by Larian Studios

I'm still struggling to see what the problem is. I think what you're implying is that social topics in stories that clumsily force that subject to the forefront are annoying, which I agree with. But - and this is the important bit - they're not annoying because they deal with sexuality or religion ...

Re: Baldur's Gate 3: developed by Larian Studios

I'm a little in the dark as I don't intend to spoil Last of Us 2's story for myself, so forgive me if I'm wide of the mark, but as I understand it Ellie's sexuality is an issue here? There have been stories about sexualty since the dawn of human society, it's just that they're about straight relati...

Re: Baldur's Gate 3: developed by Larian Studios

Social agenda? Really? :? Do you have an example of what it is you’re expecting to see that’s so terrible, along with any basis for it? This is obviously my personal preference and opinion. It I am drawn into a game and can see obvious parallels between social problems in today's society and the ga...

I don't understand why it's a concern. If the possibility of meeting a goblin who isn't inherently evil is going to ruin the game for you then I'm perplexed.
My concerns are not the alignment of goblins but the glaringly obvious social agenda that will be pushed

Re: Baldur's Gate 3: developed by Larian Studios

Ok, much as I think that deserves a response, I agree that this is derailing the thread so I'll refrain. Is there anything about BG3 that suggests that's the approach they're taking? Nope, just know I am a big fan of the first two and hope that when I play it I can delve into the game without being...

I feel i am just derailing this thread which was not my intention. And also... everything does not need to be "normal" for it to be okay. I dont have a problem with people being themselves

Re: Baldur's Gate 3: developed by Larian Studios

Can you give a specific example? Really not looking to debate but here is a comment made by story writer of the last of us 2 "That's not how we work," he said. "Everything is in service of the story. Getting better diversity gives us better story, gives us fresher perspectives on conflict. And I ho...

No, you were saying it was bad that games were being political. At least that is what it sounded like.
I do not want politics pushed on me when I am playing games, and yes, when they do the game suffers...

Yeah I'm not sure what you mean there, if anything games do a terrible job of dealing with politics like the nonsense that Ubisoft and Activision always come out with about how their games aren't political.
"games do a terrible job of dealing with politics"

Thats what i was saying.

Re: Baldur's Gate 3: developed by Larian Studios

I want to be excited about this game but i am very worried they will turn it into real world politics platform rather then just making a good story and gameplay Where are you getting that from? from the video game industry in general. taking things that have been great and turning it into a politic...
