So I just bought Doom and I'm having a strange issue: The game launches slightly "zoomed in" so I can't see anything on the edges of the screen. Like it thinks my resolution is higher than it is. I can't find an options menu to change it. Any suggestions?

Try going into the campaign menu a little ways, I think you need to do that to find the settings.

I think this is the same issue I've had in the past, it's a issue with some games and the monitor being set to 59.9hz instead of 60hz or vice versa. Maybe VSync affects it, I'm not sure. If your monitor has some sort of stretch-to-fit function I'd suggest trying that, then adjusting the settings.

GeForce Experience if you have an nvidia card to set settings to optimal? A different monitor you can set to default long enough for you to change settings?

Accordion Man posted:Not to mention making sure that NOLF never sees the light of day again. I replayed the first game the other week for the first time in at least 10 years and frankly, they're doing you a favour. The game's stealth doesn't work. The shooting sucks. The story really isn't worth mentioning. I passed NOFL basically while screaming at it. Then I tried to start on 2, got as far as the soviet installation and just gave up on it. It's not fun. It's not worth it.

NOLF2 is better than 1 in many ways except for the part where many areas have infinitely spawning guards even when there's no alert.

Accordion Man posted:The funny thing is it actually wasn't. Aiden was no super leet hacker he was just the dumb violent muscle for a person that actually was one and he swiped his super duper magic hacking scripts from that guy. Uh, I didn't say anything about whether or not Aiden was a super leet hacker, I said he was an rear end in a top hat creep redditor-type. Seems like your post is totally inline with that

Did the discover roulette for a few hours and it is amazing the kinds of poo poo that gets on steam. Ported flash games, xblive games, etc. Even saw a few Early Access RPGmaker games.

The Kojima wild ride just never ends, does it? Part of me hopes it's true, part of me knows it's probably just confirmation bias. I've already spilled my guts over this last December, so I'm just sharing this for the heck of it.

This is from the subreddit full of people whose minds are so broken that one of them trespassed in a Manhattan office building because they thought that some magic numbers in the game were telling them that if they snuck onto a certain floor they would find something. They also thought that the script for those MGS1 car commercials were a secret code.

I'm not particularly heartbroken about Kojima's departure at Konami, but I do love those bizarre theories about him and the MGS games. He's like a Lost episode encapsulated into a human being, so people just keep looking way too deep into innocent and unrelated things that he says and does. And he totally encourages it too, it's brilliant.

Mr. Fortitude posted:Aiden would have been way more fun to play as if the game didn't constantly try to paint him in a good light and pretend he's some kind of awesome vigilante badass. If Watch_Dogs revelled and acknowledged that Aiden was a complete piece of poo poo then I'd have way less issues with the game. Though I'd still complain about the usual Ubisoft sandbox formula that I have gotten completely sick of by now. What makes him such an rear end in a top hat? What does he do in the game? I've never played it.

quote:“Without Steam, without other platforms, it was just painful,” says another. “The Windows Store is a giant disaster. It’s on fire. 98% of PC copies of Rise of the Tomb Raider, a flagship Windows 10 game, were bought on Steam. The same is true for Minecraft. That hurt us, too. The store’s a mess; the number of people who couldn’t even install the game from the Microsoft store was… significant.” http://www.kotaku.co.uk/2016/06/09/how-fable-legends-took-down-lionhead

 1. Banished 2. StarTopia 3. Imperium Romanum Gold Edition 4. Port Royale 2 5. 1849 6. Cities in Motion 7. AdvertCity 8. Anno 2070 9. Big Pharma    I love puzzle games, but I'm not afraid to admit when they get to be too much for me. SpaceChem is a perennial favorite of mine that I burned out on way before the end, for example. Big Pharma shares certain similarities with SpaceChem, but with a layer of corporate management on top of the mind-bending puzzles. It's an interesting combination, and also a very exhausting one. You get to be the CEO of a pharmaceutical company, which turns out to be a lot more interior design and number-crunching than the vlogging and buying Wu-Tang albums that I expected. Starting with a small empty room, you import ingredients through hatches in the walls, run them through a gauntlet of machines, and funnel the resulting pills, creams, and tinctures back out for a profit. Each ingredient has positive and negative effects that are activated at different concentrations, so your machines can raise, lower, and rescramble concentrations to make effective medicines. Cramming all the necessary machines and connecting converyor belts into the space you have is your primary concern. You can research and unlock more efficient machines but you're trading space efficiency for higher running costs, which must be weighed against the profit of the drug. These values in turn fluctuate with the cost of ingredients, the market demand for that cure, and any competitor companies in that market. This is the management layer I spoke of and while you can do well enough ignoring price fluctuations, more difficult scenarios and the Master-level goals require you to retool your operation based on the market, especially once patents come into play and companies start locking each other out of producing specific cures. This additional layer of complexity may be unwelcome to those just trying to wrap their brains about their assembly lines. Cures can be upgraded to more valuable remedies by hitting specific concentrations with specific machines. This sometimes requires catalysts mixed in with special machines, which might also require re-arranging your chemical's traits with yet another machine. All of these processes must then be crammed into limited space, and layout mistakes can be costly to undo. An efficient, profitable line is incredibly gratifying to put together, but it can be a difficult road to get there. You'll have over three dozen scenarios to choose from, with goals ranging from make X dollars over Y years to deliver Z quantity of a specific drug. Regardless of your goals, the means will be similar, building assembly lines for simple drugs while you research the ingredients and tools to make more complex ones, and refactoring everything when you start to run out of space. New machines, upgrades, and rules may come into play in later scenarios, but never to particularly dramatic effect. It's one of those games where you really have to love the core gameplay loop because it's not going to deviate much from scenario to scenario. The presentation is perfect for a puzzle game, with clear, colorful, cartoony shapes and pleasing animations for all your machines. I want to give special recognition to the sound effects, which reach Blizzard-levels of polish for how perfect and gratifying they are to hear. Machines make delightful buzzes and clanks, belts whirr along happily, and even the buttons have rich bleeps and bloops to them. It's an excellent concept assembled and presented as well as anyone could expect, so the only question is how long you'll care to stick with it. There's not a lot of variety to building lines or running your company, but if you want to build Rube Goldbergian coveyors and tax your brain in turning a profit, you'll find no end of content to keep you happy.

Am I missing something about the GoG summer sale, or is it literally impossible to get enough XP for the middle / last games? I don't see anything about game purchases granting xp, but even it they do, it would take a LOT of purchases. I already have the games, but it's still weird.

Phlegmish posted:What makes him such an rear end in a top hat? What does he do in the game? I've never played it. Where to even begin. His whole motivation the entire game is to avenge the death of his niece, which he himself caused because he was dumb enough to hack into a bank and not expect any repercussions from it. So ever since then, he goes on a vigilante spree where he roams around the city looking for the people who ordered the hitmen that tried to kill him and killed his niece while he intercepts phone calls and emails from people on the street who get angry at another and then and goes and kicks their rear end or even murder them in cold blood for committing the heinous offense of "thought crime", before any actual crime is committed as well as randomly gently caress with road signs by hacking them so it displays some lovely unfunny Internet meme and cause traffic accidents. Meanwhile his sister and his nephew which he is very creepily attached to are getting harassing phone calls so Aiden decides the best course of action is to install surveilance cameras hidden everywhere in his sisters house and it eventually leads to his sister being kidnapped which again, is entirely Aiden's fault. There is also a section where Aiden intentionally lets himself get arrested so he can deal with someone in prison who threatens to expose his identity as the vigilante and murders countless prison guards and cops in the process. And the game tries to frame the entire thing as a superhero origin story, where Aiden was completely in the right and is some kind of badass instead of a creepy, hosed up piece of poo poo who brought everything upon himself and refuses to accept responsibility for his own part in his niece's death and instead lashes out at others.
