Seriously, I ordered a steam controller right before they were discontinued, and got a refund :(

That’s kinda where I was sitting when I got the dlc. I had played thousands of hours and was moving my way into factorio and satisfactory. I bought biotech bc I loved rimworld, but I’ve not even finished an entire playthrough since.

I agree that live games are a problem, and helldivers 1 had an offline option, but Helldiver’s 2 being always online is better executed than any other live games I’ve seen. And, their servers have been needed up significantly since Friday.

We’re a long way off from iron man type shit, but yeah this is the path to getting there. It’ll probably take decades but hopefully we can iron out the kinks and inconveniences to not so much “solve” problems vs normal screens, but elevate our ease of access and capabilities.

What’s the in trailer that you couldn’t expect? I didn’t really see anything GTA V didn’t already have.

Is it Linux only? What an interesting change of pace, if so

Edit: DDA, I mean

Fortnight absolutely kicked off the battle Royale phase of recent years. PUBG was coming into it’s own at the same time, but is a more hardcore experience so it didn’t get the viral boom. Fortnight being free to play and fairly casual put wind in it’s sails like Minecraft had, every kid everywhere played it.

Mind flayers (the “Cthulhu”) are prominent bad guys in DnD, super popular. They’re canonically aberrations from a different realm, so they’re designed to be freaky Lovecraft aliens. Idk if you’re saying BG3 looks weird or crazy, but aliens and spelljammer space-ship like things are established canon in DnD, the source material.

Yeah, the only reason anybody says that is because we’re so desensitized by pay-to-win mechanics and games being released half finished with day 1 dlc to fill the gaps, so we say “at least it’s better than that”

Remember horse armor? I bet there’s plenty of video games out now with cosmetic horse armor for sale.

Fair. All things considered though, my friend who couldn’t get through DOSII has been begging me to get the BG3 early access with him. So without playing it, it seems more approachable!!!

Without knowing what fight you stopped at it’s hard to really talk about your experience, but I promise you don’t need to know a fight is coming or cheese the fight. There’s a point where the fights just click for you and become easier. There’s also plenty of content you can go to instead to level up, if you’re under leveled.

There’s only 1 fight I can think of that’s balls to three weeks nuts (the Blackpits) and my brother and I still beat it legitimately, just took like 6 attempts.
