Wow so Telltales Batman Season 1 is still broken as hell. Bought it on sale today with PUBG Cratebux and got to the SECOND scene in the game and it went to hell. Game is either showing me a blank screen with subtitles or this mess forgot how to upload pictures. Anyway off to the refund requests it goes. Was kinda excited for it but I just can deal with the telltale jank anymore.

No fuck way. Looked to see if there was an update or anything and there was! A small 13mb one that decided that my local save was borked and I get to start over. Obviously I only lost 15 or so mins but I'm out. Not gonna play through the intro again just to see if they fixed the original issue.

Hm. I played through Episode 1 a few months ago; while this isn't Telltale's most poorly-optimized game, it's definitely not the best either. However, I didn't experience any game-breaking bugs like this.

Most of us, yes. And I honestly think it's healthy. If it's a game you're really excited about, if it's a game you're going to play, just do it. Life is too short to wait 3 years for a better deal.

Sweet. Trading thread, here I come!

We Happy Few is leaving early access next week and getting a price bump to $50. I'm probably the only person who cares but it's been on my wishlist and I was kind of hoping to catch it on sale. But the only sale it's seemingly had was on the Humble Store once a long while back according to ITAD. According to the dev posting, it's never been on sale (since $30 was the Kickstarter price and they didn't want to dip below while in EA) so maybe the ITAD listing is wrong. Or HB did a rogue sale, GMG-style.

It's been on my wishlist for a while, but, uh, yeah, I can wait. . . .

I agree with this. And to add on, if there is *no* game that you want to play >rightnow< ever, that's kinda sad. With all the great and strange and spectacular games that come out each year, you'd think that at least one of them would get you excited enough to want to rush to get it (Persona 5 and Danganronpa V3 for me this year, for example). If not, if you're always 'meh, I can wait' about everything, do you really like games at all?

I think there's a bit of a balance. The size of your backlog does enter into the calculus of this at some point, as many times you will see that unless it's something you absolutely, positive decide to make time for in your schedule right after you buy the game, you may see that you don't actually have time to fit in your schedule until it's already hit a price reduction or three.

Available free time probably plays a lot into this as well: As much as I want to start playing Breath of the Wild, Persona 5, Final Fantasy XV, Witcher 3, etc... right now I just can't carve 40+ hours out of my life. So I'll wait for sales, and play the stuff I already own that aren't so life-demand-y.

You say that now but maybe it'll be like Grimoire and never, ever, ever go on sale EVER because it's meant only for elite real-core tru gamers and not for casuals who can't appreciate $50 gaming art.

I don't believe Cleve.
I'm waiting for it to be bundled on Groupees, as they strike me as the sort that would want to work with him.

But they probably won't let you use coins for that bundle. Because it's only meant for elite sophisticates.

I'd argue that while you may be interested in those above mentioned games, you're not actually *excited* by them. You say they can wait because they are time-sinks (true), but you'll put time into backlog games in the meantime. Is there *never* a game that goes straight to the front of the line? *That's* what I'm talking about. It doesn't have to be any particular game, nor does it have to be a long game, just something that has gotten you truly hyped.

BTW: Persona 5 has already even been on sale ;).

Is getting Owlboy in the top tier of a Humble bundle close enough?

I'm fine with saying that I'm rarely $60 worth of excited about a new game (can't think of the last game I paid $50+ MSRP for). If this means I'm not TRU GAMER then I guess that's the cross I have to bear.

SnakeyBro always stuck me as a good guy who wasn't trolling on purpose. He just saw a game he wanted to play and he got it. And one thing about him is he played what he bought a lot better than most of us.
Click to expand...
I agree that initially he wasn't trolling, but towards the end, I'm not so sure. He was still basically operating as he always had. But it seemed like he started hamming it up a bit when he posted. He had to have noticed Motoki's reaction (he'd need to be blind not to) and it seemed like he enjoyed poking at him. Though I kinda hope I'm wrong about that. Because the idea of him accidentally trolling Motoki into a frothing fury is a joyous thought.

SnakeyBro's penchant for buying games at MSRP aside (which I never had a problem with), I miss him. He was a bit of a character and I found him amusing. If I drew up a list of the top 5 former posters who I'd like to have back here, he'd be on it.

Yeah, I preordered RDR2 a year ago, so there's that...

If it were a top 10 list, and I was able to limit him to only posting 2 days a week, yeah I'd want Bruticus back. Let's face it, he was funny as hell a lot of the time. However, a little bit of him went a long way.

As for Tebow, HARD PASS.

Fallout 4 GOTY launches on September 26th.

Finished up the Automatron DLC missions a week or two ago. Much better than I was expecting, expands the lore behind the robobrains, livens up the wasteland with roving bands of insane robots, and the crafting stuff is surprisingly deep. I have now swapped out all my settlement supply chain provisioners with hulking tankbots.

I hope that doesn't mean they are going to pull the crap they did with Skyrim where the DLC doesn't go on decent sale by itself any more.

 
So what does everyone think of Peanut Butter Undergrounds first person mode?  I actually love it, and feel like it takes away some of the camping of sorts since someone cant sit behind a rock / tree and see 360 degrees around them.

Iffy. I don't mind the "no camera swivel" part so much as the very painfully obvious fact that the game wasn't designed around first person. The camera heights are all messed up, everyone is essentially a midget and driving is pain.

So good idea, half-assed implementation.

It's good, except it's a little harder when you get down to the last circles and everyone is crawling around in first person trying to spot other people. It was difficult to spot people in 3rd person, it's very hard spotting them in 1st person.

There were a few cranky people who used to post back in the day. The first was Jodou, who seemed to constantly have a chip on his shoulder. The other was Megazell, who maintains a massive thread of free games to play in the PC section (or used to, I haven't been over there in a while). I'm pretty sure he genuinely believed paying for games was for suckers and he loved to rub people's faces in it. I'd see him promote his thread at a few other places around the internet and it annoyed me every time. I remember quite a few times when somebody would post a deal, he'd respond with "lol, retail" and then post gifs of people shaking their head whenever anybody would tell him to shut up.

One time I tried playing it, the driving was so horrendous, Syntax and I died in the blue.

Also, Fakeybro was okay until the end when he started getting offended by the joking and posting condescending stuff making fun of people who hoard games. Then he got so frustrated he left, which I think was for the best.

 
Was it YCAG who would constantly scoff at people for paying $6 for some game because he was playing some shitty freeware knockoff that looked like it came from the Office Depot software rack?

Then, bizarrely, he discovered GTAV and would go on about how it was every game in the world wrapped into one and thus the superior game.

 
I'm still salty some asshat one shot me through supressing fire I was pouring on him but PUBG FPS mode is good stuff. I don't think it fixes even half the problems with the game but it is a good new way to play.

I'd like to say it was me who got you because you bought PUBG on SALE!!!! But, alas, I cannot hit the broadside of a barn in PUBG so it wouldn't be me.....My last claim to shame was dying slumped over my motorcycle because I died outside the zone. SAD!

Yea, YCAG would always piss and moan whenever we talked about the greatness of games like Mark of the Ninja, which he refused to play cause it looked cheap. Meanwhile, he's the king of F2P. And a dick. And I hate him.

Yeah, I had some weird issues w/ it rendering the TV properly when it was news-worthy events a few times; namely in later chapters.

Geez @ the borked-save issue. Good thing I already finished Batman Telltale S1, before its latest update.

There was a 12 GB update a couple of days ago that seems to be causing problems. It also caused previous saves to not work.

I think another big problem is horrible business practices.

Especially on the PC side here, where games aren't always released in the best states. Why would I want to buy a game, when it ain't optimized and/or I might not even have the best (or newest) hardware to run it properly?

Why buy games ASAP or pre-order - when games are going to possibly be in Alpha or Beta states...w/ broken quests, bugs, performance issues, and other nasty things of the sort? Why am I paying to be a tester? Why buy a game early, when a new forced-patch might break my game's previous saves and I just can't even resort to an older-version of the game? Batman Telltale S1 or Krater, anyone?

Not everybody was rocking a 3-4GB VRAM card to truly handle Dishonored 2 properly upon its release. Batman AK ran like ass for most people upon its release, as well - and for many, still does. MKX was a mess at launch and for a while...and didn't truly get fixed until QLOC was hired to fix the damn thing. Mass Effect: Andromeda out-the-box had all kinds of animation issues, but a fair deal have been fixed-up as time has gone alone. Homefront: The Revolution ran like ass for most upon release - despite running much better these days (if you can get around the new shadow-flickering issue).

Then....there's issues w/ storyline completion - or the lack thereof. We have games where endings in the base-game...well, don't really end properly. You might have some loose threads hanging; story-line threads get entirely dropped; and/or ending(s) even setting up for DLC's and/or sequels. Mirror's Edge: Catalyst & Deus Ex: Mankind Divided come to mind here as the biggest offenders, if you ask me - worst of all, we don't even know of these games are even getting sequels!

Now, DLC's and re-releases. We have DLC-Fests; Micro-Transactions Galore; Season Passes (which might not have all DLC's); Year 1 and Year 2 DLC Packs; Re-Released Edition w/ more content; Remastered Edition w/ everything + some even more new content; etc etc. In most instances, these all can milk money out of the early adopter - so, why even adopt a game early?

How the hell am I supposed to get excited about new releases, when there's all these horrible business practices surrounding numerous titles, especially those in the AAA Space?

i hate it since everything got converted to First Person nowadays. The game obviously wasn't designed with First Person mode to begin with.

I rather that they use that time and resource to polish the game and release new, fun mode

Played a little of it but it didn't really do much for me. I'll have to try it now that it's out of EA

You are taking a few examples and extending that across hundreds upon hundreds of games that release each year. Even the examples you provided were playable at release. I was able to play Arkham Knight just fine when it released. Same with Mass Effect Andromeda. Were they perfect? No, but still enjoyable enough that I didn't feel slighted.

We live in an angry internet nerd era where the goal is to seemingly find the bad in everything and blow it far out of proportion. Yes, some games deserve to get torn to shreds, I'm not going to deny that. Games were far from perfect 20-30 years ago, yet everyone seems to think that they are shining examples of game development. Can devs do a better job in some areas? Absolutely. Unfortunately, their hands are often forced by publishers who are motivated by staying relevant to sell the most goods.

The problem is staying relevant. As Syntax has mentioned, we no longer have one game that we play for half a year to a year until something else comes along. The market is (over)saturated with options and seemingly a hundred more are released each week. How do you keep people playing your game to keep the hype alive to sell more copies? Quickly released dlc and microtransactions. Not only is it needed to stay relevant, but consumers essentially want it this way. There are too many options out there for people to have the desire to wait a year or two for an expansion. Is it welcome when it happens? Absolutely(thanks for more xcom 2 dlc Firaxis!), but by that point you've lost a ton of market saturation/momentum from the games release and the you're not making enough money to justify the expansion.

We all want perfect games on release , but in the current climate I just don't see it happening. Most devs make an honest effort to get a good product out there and then support it after release. Unfortunately, there is no pleasing everyone, especially when the internet is involved.

And to answer the question at hand: With refund policies in place and doing your research I don't see any issue with getting a game on release.
 
I had to - and still do - have to run Batman AK with 30FPS lock on my 970. It is playable, sure - but otherwise, it's a roller-coaster of game, bouncing anywhere b/t 25 to 60 frames at the drop of a hat. This is certainly not ideal.

The attitude these days from dev's is: "Release the game now, release DLC's tomorrow, and then patch the day-after." In most instances: "No thanks." Why pay full MSRP now, when someone else will get it way cheaper in a few months or get way more content in a complete box for full-blown MSRP?

I'll wait a few months for price-drops; some issues to settle; and then either wait more content to be released to hopefully drop the price of base-game or wait for the inevitable re-release w/ more content.

Why should I support this current climate ASAP, if the weather sucks? Naw, I'll just wait for sunnier days.

Some companies do a great job of shipping full, complete games. Rockstar, Atlus, Nintendo, CD Projekt Red all come to mind. Lots of people feel good about supporting companies that make great games too.

It's pretty easy to avoid day1 purchases of crap from the AAA deadline-oriented industry giants too.

Which is normally one of many reasons I don't buy stuff ASAP. I can wait.

Why buy now, when it'll be in a better technical state a little bit later + likely a bit cheaper by then?

My backlog's already huge + always increasing, also - so, more reason to wait.

 
The best games to come out this year were all well-worth day1 purchases:  Zelda: BotW, Persona 5, PUBG, and Nioh.

We also live in the golden age of cheap gaming where you can get everything you could possibly want from humble bundles and monthlies if you don't like to pay for things.  So everyone wins.

The real issue at-hand is retailer exclusivity and locked pre-order bonuses.  Forced pre-ordering is the real asshole culprit.  Everything about pre-orders is unfriendly for customers. Thankfully we have so many resources regarding the speed of information following a game's release.  Every publishers main conquest now is to get people to buy things before they are properly received and reviewed.  I have a real problem with that.  I don't blame anyone for buying everything they think they might want, keeping the bonuses, and then returning the product if it doesn't live up to expectations.

Some people like to play games while they're new and hot, and when their friends and colleagues are playing them. You don't and that's fine. A lot of games also have a short ( <1 yr) multiplayer/MMO/watercooler talk lifespan. Casual gamers also play maybe like one new title per year. I dunno why it would bother someone when other people like to play new games.

FTFY.

Your point is fair for MP-based stuff especially when there are levels and unlocks, where you might want to be on par w/ others and not falling behind. I think b/c there's such a lack of SDK's and mods for many MP games, that for me there isn't enough of an influx of new content - such as new maps + game modes - like there was in the old days, that my interest of these kind of games are not what they once were.

The MP scene really hasn't excited me too much in probably years, TBH. That stuff, especially in competitive MP for shooters, was more exciting to me during the Quake 2+3, RTCW, and UT days. Left 4 Dead series was probably one of the last MP-based games that really hooked me b/c of its Co-Op Campaign Elements.

I mostly stick to SP-style stuff, so....when I get to a game, I get to a game; and I can go at it pretty much at my own pace.
