Man that is super disappointing to hear about Beyond Blue. There's no way to just explore or to turn that junk off? I was hoping for a game to play with my kids where we just go looking for whales.

Kibayasu posted:If you want to be generous to Beyond Blue you can assume if the main character isn’t just a silent avatar you can hope that it will also have some margin of character development and will not remain insufferable. I mean I doubt that will happen, but I'm still intrigued about how the story unfolds. It's not really a bad game so far, but the focus of making the protagonist/expedition an influencer life is a bit of a downer. Shes not really a "Karen" but more of a naive american white tween which really doesn't fit the theme and her responsibility the slightest. Story setup so far is good though.

GreatGreen posted:So youtube videos of Beyond Blue are coming out and it looks like they took a chillout ocean life exploration game and decided the main character shouldn't be simply an avatar by which you can explore a neat world, but instead should be a be a sarcastic livestreamer all about ME ME ME and likes. what a bizarre choice

Quitting and launching Origin again still says "Steam" (not shown double as I expected) but I can launch it via Origin directly then. /okay getting an Origin owned game through Steam OVERRIDES the Origin purchase. So you cannot install it soley via Origin anymore. It will be assimilated. haldolium fucked around with this message at 19:40 on Jun 11, 2020 |

It's so stupid. If they were just native steam versions I would have happily bought them over again just to not have to deal with multiple launchers and have all of my Mass Effects in one place. But if they're just going to stealth launch the origin client and run it through there anyway gently caress no I'm not buying them again.

I've gone back to it like a dozen times since it's come out and never once had problems matchmaking.

Cowcaster posted:you think that's weird people who own consoles and pcs buy two copies of games all the time *sheepishly raises hand* If I may be allowed to defend myself, usually it's in the case where the console version comes out first and I don't want to wait to play it, and a nicer looking PC version comes out later, like GTAV or RDR2. Although in the case of Dark Souls I have ended up going back to console because there's less dumb hacking/cheating bullshit to deal with playing online via console vs PC.

I buy games I really love multiple times. Sometimes to have them playable elsewhere, like on the go, and sometimes just because I love them and want to support the creators. I own KoDP about 5 times.

I was hoping for a game to play with my kids where we just go looking for whales. To bankshot off both this and the earlier Journey discussion, while it's not quite an open world game Abzu is pretty amazing and does have a lot of swimming around to find or just look at pretty things. Some of the sections are breathtaking and it's definitely worth playing. And I'd say it's a very watchable game too if you guys are taking turns.

DrNutt posted:*sheepishly raises hand* I mean, I'm not saying I don't suffer from it as well. Collecting is fuckin great. Typing in the name of a good series in a DD client and seeing all the titles lined up there in your library is good stuff man. I'm also right there with you on your reasoning to double dip, too. ShootaBoy posted:I buy games I really love multiple times. Sometimes to have them playable elsewhere, like on the go, and sometimes just because I love them and want to support the creators. I own KoDP about 5 times. I don't like thinking about how many times I've bought stuff like Morrowind (physical original, physical GOTY, Steam, GoG, etc) or the many different Infinity Engine iterations of their games and enhanced editions. Yes I know I'm a terrible person for falling into this specific temptation of capitalism. GreatGreen fucked around with this message at 20:33 on Jun 11, 2020 |

I bought Titanfall2 again when I got a Ps4 but its also essentially at bargain bin price almost every sale plus the online community for shooters in consoles is much larger than PCs.

One of the cool things about PS+ is that they've supported my double dipping habit by offering me tons of "free" games that I already had on PC.

I’ve seen battlefield 3 and 4 on sale for less than twenty several times this year, on origin and amazon. No surprise they’d come onto steam charging $40 to start, though.

Morter posted:You jerks are making me miss NIOH. I got into NG+ but I hit a point where I was in the mid 200s and the only missions around that area were those stupid double-boss fights, after the normal missions in the current region. The next region over has their missions be 100+ levels ahead of me. Am I missing something? Am I meant to grind? I have a set I like I'm just not sure how the progression works. Quoting myself because I sliced 74 gigs outta my HD to throw this back in  And it's just like I remember. Here's where I stand: I'm currently level 230 in NG+, and I'm in the Omi region. Main missions there go up to level 310. The next region starts at 345 or thereabouts, well over 100 more than I'm at. So at this point, I guess, I'm trying to figure out the pace of my advance. Should I just grind for
