- Comment on Atomfall Hands-On Preview: Rebellion’s New IP is More Than Just British Fallout - WGB article 2 days ago:
IMO we really should try to look at these games as “new ones” and not put them into a Schublade (pigeonhole). Please correct my phrasing if I’m wrong.
It’s its own style, gameplay and story. Sure we can make comparisons but we shouldn’t expect them to be like the games we compare them with. As an example, Avowed was compared to Skyrim and people immediately jumped the train and accused it of being too linear, not big enough and not having much choices. Undeserved because it’s nothing like Skyrim, at least for me.
I hope Rebellion didn’t chase any trend and had its own ideas but we will see. And btw: never, NEVER preorder!

The parkour system in unity is the most advanced, most fluid one in the whole series!
- Comment on Is anyone else playing Avowed? What are your thoughts so far? 1 week ago:
Soooo… I think I’m about to leave the first proper map. The voices aren’t as bad as I thought at the beginning. Some NPCs have stronger accents than others, taking the backstory of the island to account it totally makes sense since a lot of people are coming from different regions.
I love the comments from the companions every time you stumble across a new region, street, house. It really lets you feel like they know the way around and you’re the visitor.The story picks up a notch and gives enough choices for every mood. Also it lets you remember some of your choices and opens new ways to solve some quests. Combat feels better and better as more you dive into. All weapons are viable and are well balanced. I started as a heavy two hand melee but now my second loadout is a book with a pistol…
The map design is really really nice IMO. You really have to take a look behind everything to find something. The loot is plausible. Enemy placement don’t feel off.
After all it’s a good solid game. Maybe not a full priced one but for 10-20€ off a really nice worth to be played one.
I hope it doesn’t fall off the more you play…Performance got worse in Paradis but still is around 90 in my case.

So far I kinda like it but haven’t played much, just arrived at the docks.
The art style is nice and you really can see the love for details. The voices feel a bit off, for a non-nativ english speaker it sounds like americans trying as hard as they can to speak with a british/Victorian era accent.For those who’s playing on PC, check mods for performance. After some tinkering I’m getting solid 120+fps @1080p with high/max settings with RT enabled (FSR quality and FG) on a RTX 3060 and a Ryzen 3600.
I will give an update as long as i don’t forget it

The nice part: you don’t have to engage into combat. You can talk your way out or maybe, what will suit you more, use poison and be friend with the shadow.
- Comment on Are there games with real collision detection? 3 months ago:
Mount and Blade 2 Bannerlord’s combat physics are awesome compared to the scale of the battles. Example: on foot, striking with a big hammer, you won’t pass the shield but if you swing from a horse at full speed you will. + modsupport

- Comment on What are your favorite 1000+ hour games? 3 months ago:
Not a favourite anymore but still beats my second most played games by a factor of 4… Warframe was fun at the beginning and really clicked at about 200hrs. I left after about 2200hrs because I burned out but it still has a place in my heart.

Where’s Blizzard?! If I remember right they made a billion only on Diablo 4 Microtransactions… It’s like more than half of whole Ubisoft

I know him personally and told him several times over the past year. I will try to reach him about this also
- Comment on What's your favorite controller? 6 months ago:
I have been playing videogames since 1992. Went through almost every controller design possible. From the modern ones, I never liked the layout from the playstation so sticked to Xbox. At the moment I’m using a GameSir T4 Kaleid and absolutely loving it. Mechanical buttons and hall effect joystick are very nice. Since I’ve had it only for a year I can’t say anything about reliability. Most reliable Xbox controllers in order are Xbox classic controller S, 360, One. After that every single one is bad IMO. Series controller start to drift pretty fast, same as both elites. So at the moment my most favourite is the Xbox One controller 2nd revision (1708) also known as Xbox one S controller but if the GameSir won’t break for the next couple of years it will be the top one for me.
I hope more first party controllers will get a proper higher tier version with real reliable parts like everything hall effect and mechanical buttons…

Double triple check everything and let a friend try to dig around… Befor posting your Infos make a post and chose a random comment or so. This way you can verify it’s not a bot
- Comment on What are some excellent free games/total conversions that are worth playing the whole thing? 9 months ago:
Sunk 2000hrs into Warframe without paying a dime. Also Path of Exile is a nice fair free 2 play game. For total conversions try Fallout new Vegas and mount and blade

It’s totally a scam!

Series X only
- Comment on The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion 1 year ago:
Portal Revolution for me. I’m at chapter 4 and the Mod feels like a whole complete game. Totally worth trying and if you don’t have portal 2, 1+2 are on discount right now.

- Comment on Microsoft’s repairability push now extends to Xbox controllers, too 1 year ago:
AFAIK Sega did it twice on the Saturn and the Dreamcast controllers… I think the problem grew over the time… Companies try to cheap out on parts as much as possible, try to limit the lifetime of said parts to about 2 years so people will have to buy new controllers…
- Comment on Microsoft’s repairability push now extends to Xbox controllers, too 1 year ago:
“GameSir G7 SE” is pretty new on the market. The SE version hast hall effect joysticks but lacks the mechanical buttons from the previous G7 model. They both also wired. Looked up reviews of them and they seem to be pretty solid for this price range. Can’t tell anything about quality myself since mine hasn’t arrived yet. When ordering, put it in your cart and fill out your adress and email but dont pay/checkout. After some time you will get an email with 10% off, later another one with 15^^

Right direction but wtf?! 35$ for the joystick PCB… nah thanks I gonna go and buy a whole hall effect controller for this price…
