Qmass posted:I heard you guys like NPCs I wonder how they do this. I couldn't see any doubles there so I wonder if they've got an algorithm which randomizes a person every time they appear on screen (which could lead so some funny poo poo) or if there's just a lot so we will start seeing repeats once we've gotten familiar enough with the game.

Just pointing out that the linked article is pure clickbait designed to generate hits from thirsty teenagers. I highly doubt that it is representative of the whole game.

So while I know there are three "Types" of gun tech levels, my dumb gameplay question is, On a scale of- We know there are 'resistances' in the game, to shock, fire, poison, etc. So I'm not sure, but it makes me think there could be incendiary bullets for example. Possibly armor piercing rounds too, as armor is a thing. Now, I have no idea if every weapon is going to need their own ammo, or it will be just 'rifle ammo', 'pistol ammo', etc. I suspect it's the latter.

OK I think I've finally settled. Street Kid + Shotguns for my first play through. Loud and hard. Then I'll do probably Corpo + Pistols or those Smart Weapons for #2. Doubt I'll be up for a third playthrough, but if I am... then obviously Nomad

coolusername posted:I'm kind of in agreement, I was interested and then the more I find out about the sex stuff the more it seems... I don't know, looking at reviews like https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.ga...e/1100-6484602/ where it talks about how there's tits everywhere, etc. If it's all just going to be male gazey edgy bullshit like that appealing to the thirsty Cheeto-dusted neckbeard gamer demographic I'm not going to be able to enjoy it. Which really sucks. I'm hoping it's not actually as bad as it seems? He just had sex with a prostitute, and yes, there are 'red light' districts with sex workers and you can see tits. Same as The Wicher 3. The game with 800 awards (not, I didn't make up that number, I just looked in the Steam page). Do you consider The Witcher 3 a Cheeto-dusted neckbeard gamer oriented game?

I do wonder what the definition of a 'tech weapon' is. That's what the engineer skill tree seems to principally benefit, and they seem distinct from rifles, pistols, and so on. Maybe they're your built-in weapons?

Maybe they're your built-in weapons? It's basically versions of weapons with various interesting gimmicks like machine guns with homing bullets and rifles with IRL wall hacks.

No, what I want IS it to be like, a modern Witcher iii (But this time I can make a cool lady), maybe have a little nice romance, and do a lot of fun storylines. It's just all the advertising and things I keep hearing is like "it's an even sexier GTA! Choose your dick size and then go wander a land full of sexy tits and rear end! Playboy magazines baby!" Like it's a triple aaa come play my lord makes me concerned that this is absolutely focused on the big money making market I am absolutely not included in, you know? So if there are less... That.. sorts of trailers and talks I want to know.

Man there's a lot of people goin nuts over the less than optimal gunplay, crowd density on base Xbone, and driving. Good thing the only CRPGs I've played recently were Alpha Protocol and Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines, as long as the gameplay is at a similar level I'm happy. Roleplaying potential > all other considerations, bring on the jankkk

People were always going to bellyache about the gunplay due to the games damage value, RPG nature. Like, sure, COD gunplay in a game like this is the dream, but when everything is so stats-based, you’re going to get some tanking enemies. That’s just the nature of the beast.

So there was an edition of the tabletop game that had a budget of 20 bucks? They couldnt an artist so had to make do with photos of action figures. Would I be right in thinking that it will never be reprinted and nobody wants to talk about it?
