Sounds like a good time, I'll wait for it to get on Steam as I've already got a ton of games on my plate this season.
Doesn't matter to people who play video games as their hobby. You gonna talk about the game at all or still stink up the thread complaining?
......so is it shit or what?
Yeah I've noticed that too. Just don't let it get to you.This forum seems super aggressive this week, its disappointing.

Difference with that example is anyone can sign up to Netflix. That option isn't locked out for half the fans of Game of Thrones.
"I LOVE THIS GAME!! I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT IT. It does have bad graphics and combat and animations but I LOVE IT!!"
errrr
is there a list of writers on this game?
ke ? Why should you be able to use Xbox gamepass on PS4 ? That doesn't make sense.
You can buy Otherworlds on PS4 and sell it later you will end up paying about 5-10$ total.
Imagine this. I bought PS4 2 years back bought MGS5, FF15, Nier:Automata, P5, Bloodborne and MHW. Finished those in 2-3 months then sold everything for a total of 10$ bill.
Here is the even more ridicolous thing. Right now i can play slew of PS4 games on PC via PlaystationNow for total of NOTHING for 30days including Bloodborne. And God of War, U4 and few other exclusives are coming this month to it.
Why someone should be concerned about you choosing PS4 to play your games ?
Sell it and buy Xbox or PC.
No one is saying you should be able to use x box gamer pass on Playstation rather the price should reflect it's available to many so cheaply... say 20 dollars... still 20 times what others are getting it for (so it still makes Game pass look attractive).
I dont think "dont like it, buy a new console" is the answer when all were discussing is pricing of the same game depending on format.
Price reflects that.
You have playstation you pay 60$
Someone has PC or Xbox pays 1$ for SUBSCRIPTION.
One is full game you can own other one is subscription after which end you don't own game.
Yep and the value of that distinction is subjective to each user. I'd guess more people are happier to rent it rather than own it if Netflix use vs ownership of their titles is any indication. Rightly or wrongly convenience has become paramount in most entertainment sectors.
The point is that you can do it as well on playstation. Just buy new do playtrough and sell it.
Voila.
I've long since been all digital this gen, its certainly an option for some .
So you have an option to do it and you don't want to use it.
Then you complain that you can't buy it for 1$ like everyone else who don't (because it is subscription)
So what was your point ?
Read my past posts I would of liked a price more in line with the fact it's been given away so cheap on a subscription service only half of potential audience can get. Theres a big difference from me wanting it at one dollar as you claim and me not wanting to pay the developers 60 times that simply because I'm a PS4 gamer.
If your solution is to sell everything on after your done with it to combat inequal pricing amongst the fanbase I'd rather just tackle the uneven pricing head on rather than work around it.
Each to their own. I've said all I can about it now lol. Enjoy your purchase/subscription.
I'll pick it up in a sale if the reviews are favourable.

Combat has actually garnered positive reactions so far by those who played it, at least its seen as an improvement compared to Fallout.
Lead Writer is Leonard Boyarsky (Fallout 1, Arcanum, Vampires: Bloodlines).
Writers are mostly Obsidians current crop, but Leonard provided a very strong creative direction for what he wanted.
Chris L'etoile (Mass Effect 1+2) also wrote on it, before leaving Obsidian for personal reasons (wife is sick) this year.
Inspirations were mentioned in the previous video:
So,
Pulp Sci-Fi
Asimov
Brazil (For the humoursly dark take on corporate culture. Leonard forced the team to watch it, so that everyone was on the same page.)
Firefly (For the feel, companions)
Yeah there isn't a hard science to it but high unit sales of a lower priced sku can make just as much if not more than a few sales of a higher priced sku.
Perhaps future pricing will be determined by these early dual delivery system releases.
Right, although I'd say it's more like $20. He keeps ignoring that. (The $20 drops to zero, btw, if you're paying standard monthly rates for GP, although I realize MS runs so many $1 deals, most people aren't paying standard rates). I think he just wants to feel justified in complaining. Whatever. Probably best to let him be.
Those are some good influences. I enjoyed all of those, at points in my life, except for Brazil, which I never got into. As far as the writers, I haven't played any of Boyarsky's previous games, but I've heard good things about Fallout 1 and Vampire: Bloodlines. Having the ME 1 and 2 writer on board is a good sign as well. I appreciate good writing, and this is an area I think they will deliver on.
I'm expecting the reviews to average around 7.0 to 7.5. I think reviewers place too much emphasis (for my tastes anyhow) on technical polish and graphical niceties. I'm more interested in the gameplay of a game like this. That's what I'm getting it for. I don't really care if the graphics look a little aged or there are bugs. I expect that.
What I'm looking for is immersion in a world where characters, stats, interactions, and environments are interesting, varied, and challenging. It's been a long time since we've gotten a game like that. Modern console RPGs have lost their way (I'm thinking here mostly of Bethesda and Bioware). This game should scratch an itch I've had for a long time.
I'm sure Microsoft hasn't figured this out yet. Shoot 'em an email. I bet they'll drop the price. Maybe they'll even offer you a job.
Are you trying to say publishers get the price spot on all the time? I can give you loads of examples of experimental pricing that both paid off and did not.
Crash team racing came out at a discount and sold loads, Rocket Legaue made its debut on PS plus and made its fortune, through raising brand awareness initially. The original Street fighter 5 launched bare bones but critically still asked the standard retail price and was rightly criticised for it and lacked the success of its previous entries. Dreams launched in early access form at a low price point. Many MMORPG's went free to play despite initially charging at launch.
Companies listen and get feedback in more ways than just "writing an email" i.e voting with your wallet, listening to social media, critical reception, fan feedback, sales numbers.
But you know that, let's just be sarcastic for the sake of it though so it makes me look good...

That's exactly how I feel about the game. From what I've seen the graphics are perfectly acceptable to me for this game. Is it Gears 5? No, but it's quite good enough for a deep RPG that I'm going to enjoy for many, many hours and I'm like you when I play these games, I do everything and explore every corner of the game world so I'll probably get a lot more than the estimated 40 hours out if Plus I'm probably going to eventually buy and replay it several times over the years.
I DO hope the bugs aren't too bad or game-breaking though, New Vegas was unplayable at launch.
No, but I am saying that I bet they know better than you how to choose a price point.
Would you rather they cancelled the game on PS? That way you wouldn’t have to worry you pay more. That’s the way console exclusive usually works. Instead this time you get the choice to play it without changing your system of choice..
Good deal in my book
I hope so, too, although I expect some bugginess. As long as it's not game-breaking, I can live with it. My favorite game of all time was Morrowind on the original Xbox, so I have a high tolerance for bugs, lol.
I'll probably replay it. I used to not replay games, but I'm more prone to do that as I've gotten older, for some reason.
After hearing about the "low intelligence" option, I'm wondering what that would be like. It sounds like weaponry upgrades are reduced, but it compensates with laughs. I wouldn't want to do that on my first run, but I might do it on the second. Playthrough as a dumb guy, lol.
Loved Morrowind - especially the crazy Telvanis and the Dark Brotherhood quests. The only thing was getting around Morrowind and quest & inventory management were a nightmares. I'd struggle to get all the way across the map to turn in a quest item only to find I'd apparently sold it. I've heard it's been X enhanced so I'm trying to work up the patience to play it again with all of it's annoying quirks. At least there probably won't be any load times. Oblivion on the X was amazing.
Fallout 3 is my favorite game of all-time so that's one more reason I am so looking forward to this game, although while I think it might be hilarious I don't think I'll be doing a low intelligence play through any time soom. You let us know how it goes if you give it a try
thread would be kinda dead if not for people telling others how they should feel about a one dollar game being sold for $79.99.
But it's not a $1 game, it's a $79.99 game where I live.
PC Version - $79.99
Xbone version - $79.99
PS4 version - $79.99
To own the game on any platform is the same price for both physical and digital versions. Given the hours I put into Fallout New Vegas and the fact I recently went back to it, and considering I'll want to mod the game, I'll buy the game even though I have gamepass.
The price of renting the rights to play the game from individual platform holders is where there is a price discrepancy.
To rent the game on Xbone is $1/month for three months, then $10/$15 a month going forward because Microsoft has made a deal with Private Division to do so. Sony has the option to make the game available to rent for $1 a month too by setting up a similar deal but haven't. People that want the game for $1, or even just at a doscount on PS4 should be complaining to Sony, not Private Division.
there are two kinds of knowledge: rational and emotional. For me, because others can access it for one dollar, it feels like a one dollar game and i am not paying $80 for a one dollar game.
Yeah, rationally i understand your position, but because i am not an android or vulcan, it doesn't matter. my heart tells me it is a one dollar game, so it is a one dollar game.
I'm not sure why people take it so personally about others not choosing to purchase this game.
Can we all be friends again now please .
People with motion sickness do play it in third person.Haha yeah right like most people play Fallout in third person mode with it's garbage animations.
This is the last game I’m waiting for this year, and I’m excited it’s coming soon.
My gaming year will be complete once I have a playthrough of this done.
As a,ways the holidays are an embarrassment of riches, but next year seems ham packed with games wanting to launch before next gen, so it seems like we won’t get a spring/summer break. He hits are going to keep coming.
2. Ambient music isn't loud enough
5. Repetition of enemy types
2. Ambient music and music in general wasn't really implemented at that point, has been since.
5. Well he did just play in the same area of the game. So while a concern, not necessarly fact.
Also 4
4. Please yes. Hopefully they can/have changed that or made it selectable. Biggest worry for me in terms of combat.
well if u buy it on playstation its yours. if you get it true gamepass its not really yoursThis is controversial, but my opinion is....
I'm not going to pay more than 10 pounds for this on PS4 if they are offering it on gamepass day 1.
I guess its complicated situation with MS buying them but its shocking giving it to one audience "free" and asking another to pay full retail.
well if u buy it on playstation its yours. if you get it true gamepass its not really yours
so there is some benefit to it I suppose
