Yay it works!
Got refunded Stronghold Crusader 2 even though I had purchased it months ago. The part I am pleased about is the grounds I put forward for requesting refund worked : "cannot co-op the game locally over LAN at home without purchasing another copy, no interest in purchasing an extra copy for this, no interest in playing it solo either" Awesome. <@Vondur> all doom talks aside, i'd say that dishonored 2 trailer blew my mind alright
<@Vondur> can't wait! that trailer looks brilliant. I loved the original too, despite being the least stealthy person in the world.
That it could work both ways. I think this trailer has got it just right...
Looks spot-on, demo expediency aside (double turns, low HPs etc etc). Yeah. I like the new enemy stuff, I like the awareness zone, I like the reinforcement drops, I like the melee inclusion (the exposure vs effectiveness of Kinetic Punch was always an interesting balance).
Looks just like the trailer I watched of it in 2007.
I like how since they started working on that game, the entire Playstation 3 development cycle came and went. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jh-iX2bxOjI
Graphics look amazing, apart from the stupid black haze/bars around characters n stuff. Style looks amazing, apart from the environments being a bit too busy and over-detailed. Gameplay looks good, apart from distracting 3rd person cover mode and ammo counter right by reticle. "You will notice we support multiple ammunition types in Deus Ex Mankind Divided"
-"ooooooooooooohhhhhh....aaaaaaaaaaahhhhh" SHUT THE FUCK UP And Denton the macho willyhead hasn't gotten a shave or a proper haircut since. Still some kinda wanna be italian tough-guy/emo crossover aberration... I know they paid consultants a few 1000's $ to come up with a character that speaks to their lowest common demonitor fucktard consoel audience and it puts me right the fuck off the Deus Ex sequels I can't imagine any gamer in existence finds him and remotely interesting or engaging character, you're absolutely right he would reek of "designed by committee" if someone so bland and wooden would be capable of something as stimulating as reeking. I bet even the creators cringe at how utterly dull and pointless he is. DX:HR was pretty damn good despite him, given it's mostly 1st person, although with all the relentless cut-scene/conversation-cam bullshit they have to throw into the games these days, you do have to see the fucking turnip occasionally.
"I know they paid consultants a few 1000's $..."
Haha no, this doesn't happen. It's more like lots of iteration and diverging opinions, you're reading too much into it. (But yeah I agree, he's super bland and uninteresting, fortunately the rest of the game is good!) Graphics look amazing, apart from the stupid black haze/bars around characters n stuff.
Yeah, the black haze is probably because they've applied SSAO with a trowel, and it often looks stupid. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_space_ambient_occlusion
