it would be kind of funny if she lost to trump again

im sure they would blame russia again, not the fact everybody hates her.

Fucking babies and whiners.  They should be working 180 hours a week using a time portal and getting payed peanuts.  Fuck their families.  We need our games, cheap too!

This actually highlights some of my issues (minor) with the game. Though with you actually having been there I'd love to know your feelings on this. The game makes Greece seem more mountainous than it is... these pictures make it seem more hilly/than mountain.

 

It's one of those things that drive me a little nuts in open world games (something that Witcher 3 and RDR did really well) and that's not adding unnecessary mountains/climbing. It's almost like silently padding the length of the game forcing you to either ride around/climb over a bunch of stuff.

 Greece is actually very mountainous/hilly if you want the truth. You can look at Google satellite view for examples.  

As some of you know, I go to Greece almost every summer.  Below are some photos I took in 2016 and 2017 from Epidavros.  In ACOdyssey, this is known as the Valley of Dreams area of Argolis Map.  The synch location shows it as Epidauros Sanctuary.  This is where Hippocrates is.  You can find this on Google Maps here.  My home is not too far from here (about 45 minute drive).

They actually did a pretty faithful reconstruction of this area.  

I've travelled most of greece and might post more "real life" vs "in-game" comparisons in the future.  

I think it is good release, as their are bound to people who need to get the entire thing.  Obviously, it isn't intended for those of us who own it already.  

Today I ran over a squirrel.  

I will holdge judgement until I have Squadron 42 in front of me and can play it.  

I played the shit out of Wing Commander 1 and 2 back in the day, and yes I own the other ones as well (they were not nearly as good).  Looking forward to seeing how this pans out story and combat wise.

The broader MMO game I am not really expecting much at release, maybe 2 or 3 years later.

Is anyone doing the bounty’s and stuff on the boards in each town? Im not having much of a problem staying the right level just by doing all the side quests and most of these read like just filler quests. Just wanna make sure I’m nkt missing anything cool hidden in there by not doing them. 

I think they are random regenerating as well are they not?  

I am level 26 and really enjoying the game.  It is better than Origins, which was my GOTY in 2017.  Being greek, and having visited most of these locations, it is also very interesting to see this.  

Razor Death Adder

One of the best, basic mice out there.

Origins rocked.  Best game of 2017 for me.  Can not wait to play.

I’m sure they’ll do a 64. 

 

Not sure if they’ll go beyond that for a while though. 

Ya that is what I think too.  

Good to great performance, but not when looking at value.  In Canadian Dollars, you can get the 1080Ti for about $850, the 2080Ti (which is actually faster than the 1080Ti) costs about $1600-1700.  The 2080 might be feasable for somebody looking to upgrade an older card with performance at 1070 or less levels, but the 2080 = 1080Ti performance wise and costs $150 more.

The 2080 Ti though?  20-30% performance for double the price?  Ya... no.  

Sorry, nonexist Ray Tracing isn't "worth it" either at this point.  In Canadian dollar terms, I would be paying almost $800 for ray tracing, which isn't worth it.  

My 1080 Ti will be around for a lot longer by the looks of it.  At this rate, probably another 2 years.  

Looks like a great opportunity for AMD to respond with a card that is a bit better than the 1080Ti and costs less.  Hopefully they do that.  Soon.

I want some Super NES games.  These will come at some point I presume?

Just another adult-child moron.  

I hate disks, but I can see these decisions biting us in the ass in 10 or 20 years from now when your PS4 still works but the hard drive is corrupt, you can't download anything on it anymore and you don't have a physical copy of it anymore to play.  

Then again, when was the last time you put an old system in to play it?

Kinda surprised he didnt say that..  \

I am surprised that Donald Trump isn't taking the environmental angle on this to pump up how Maria saved the planet 29, 750 Millions Tonnes of CO2 being released into the atmosphere by these dea Puerto Ricans.

Anybody living cleaner and greener lately? Something as simple as putting almond milk put in your coffee makes a difference! 

Ya, but Almond Milk tastes like shit in coffee, so I just stick with the real thing.

No confirmation but I haven't seen any other alternative.  Blind well tier2 isn't too bad though when there is a group, esp with the telesto glitch.  

@Mithan if you have season pass, you do not have Forsaken, only the previous DLCs.  Forsaken is awesome so far.  The previous DLCs were meh imo.

I didnt know that.  Thanks

I never finished this when it came out, the story was just a bit bleh overall and a game called Assassin's Creed Origins came out and sucked me in.  I saw today that Blizz App downloaded the 32gb patch (or whatever it was).  I forgot I payed for the Season Pass.

Has a lot of new content and shit been added since release day to this game?

I think I'm done for now, it's gotten really repetitive. I've gotten 40 hours out of it though, so not bad for $30 CAD!

40 hours out of 30 is a good deal.  

I dumped about 82 hours into it after NEXT came out and wanted to say that visually, the game is MUCH improved.  I am still not super impressed with the planets, but they are much better than they used to be, but I still wish we had more variants, something I am not sure I understand as to why they have not done more with.  Same goes with animals.  

Anyways, the story aspect makes things better obviously, base building is very cool and varied, etc, etc.  I really like it and look forward to seeing them expand this more.

It is basically what most of us said when it was released in 2016... which was, "in two years this game might be good".  Well, 2 years is here and it is good now.  If this had been released 2 years ago, the reaction would have been much better.

At first I read this as a typo. But on second thought I think it's got levels. 

Perceptive.  I've used that statement as a sort of double entendre for years.  Too many years moderating forums   

The "crying" aspect is obvious...people bitch and whine constantly, but at the same time, they are like a good glass of wine.
