Yikes, the reviews I’ve read gave no mention of microtransactions whatsoever. Looking at metacritic, people aren’t happy. Really not sure about picking this one up after FF7, not least because I didn’t get on with the first Dragon’s Dogma at all. Yep, the big issue with DD2 is that they implemented...

I just love how well put-together the first one is, it's been 2 or 3 years since I last saw it. It really feels like a bunch of New York university drop-outs who strike it big, the way it's filmed feels authentic. It has a really gritty, grimy aesthetic. Plus I love the dry sense of humour that run...

Oh, might check that out

Bills also playing Count Orlok in a Nosferatu remake. Seems like shite remake are his forte.

It's weird though, because he's usually the best thing about them. I quite like him as an actor, unafraid of taking the oddball parts.

I played the demo during Next Fest, it was... fine? It felt ok pottering about, doing a couple of tasks and assaulting a base, but from what I've read it's incredibly repetitive and while those were ok first time around not sure how keen I'd be to keep doing the same things over and over. Also, mayb...

So it's emo John Wick, basically?

Yup

Lol... 6 weeks after release this is discounted by nearly 50% on Steam

I live in North Hampshire, where you could stick a blue rosette on a piece of shit with a KKK hood on it and it would be elected over any other party sadly. Lol... I can only sympathise with this being just up the road, don't think I've once voted for the winning side in any form of election since ...

Agreed, been slightly addicted to this over the weekend! The addition of the pet sub-classes is nice as well, although torn as to whether I like my wolf pups or my dragon bois more

Yeah, I read a Jay Kristoff series last year, Nevernight Chronicles I think, and enjoyed it a lot, so will check that out when I finished this current series

Oh that's a shame, the patches probably helped. The big one dropped just as I was finishing act 3 so I probably had a smoother ride of it to the end

Aaaaand finished! Just the 3-odd months of playing almost daily to get to the end :lol: I'm not sure if it's because I was playing so slowly - as part of featuring a daily, hour-long video on my channel - but I really enjoyed it all the way to the end, without the same fatigue WB reported feeling in...

Another interesting point in the video, when talking about the increasing cost of games to buy, is official licenses... AAA publishers are paying big bucks for the rights to have a recognisable IP for their game, the cost of which is then passed onto players. Players then in turn are rejecting these...
