same, I was interested in the game but until recent video shows a ton of other things that I didn't know stopped me in the track, reading the reviews didn't help as well.

  • it has the survival loot shooter with RE inventory management phase which I don't want to play, like not at all.
  • it has those mundane tasks like filling ammo for turrets etc, which I think doesn't fit the game type I imagined.
  • it seems to have boring AI issues even during the siege phase so that's another blow.

I think they have a good game in the beginning but throwing too many other things into the pot.

I refunded D3 after finding out how they gate the auction house and drop weapon level during launch window. Never even tried to get the updated version or D4 at all. Blizzard is dead for me at D3.

I've done that very long time ago even custom build linux kernels and compile drivers, but the experience is not really good cause it's basically a waiting game. You wait for updates and fixes and drivers etc cause no one owes you anything and even for gaming updates you might not be priority. (I used to pay money to a side fork of wine that has a paid member voting which game's compatibility to work on first. I don't have to pay/wait for anything just to have a game working on Windows. )

With so many cosmetics in our world I think you are right. XD

yeah, it's everywhere in the older game/literature/manga/etc, and then devs started to shrink back the freedom so you don't accidentally break the game logic by killing key NPC or have to make said NPC invincible. Modern day mob/field boss "quit" if you leave their area is just that you can't cheese the game or break it. So DD2 devs are gonna have a nice field trip what players can do when you give them freedom to manipulate the dumb AIs.

I think allow 1 AI to drive that many cars, wouldn't it also let it create cases that it does "team work" to win? (which also happen in real world racing if you have more than 1 car per team on the track. )

I had DVD collection but already don't watch or use/have a DVD player for longest time.(well I did have consoles that can play them. But I just never play them from disc.)

I just buy to support the film/anime/singer, download a high quality rip and play from my archive when I needed. (So if for any chance I got swatted I can show them I already bought the media already. I did the same for digital only purchase as well as I don't like streaming quality.)

Like does it makes a lot difference between UHD vs a proper high bit-rate encoded rip? In my experience, if you never pause and compare side by side stepping frame, you probably won't notice. (Yeah, bad encoding you can obviously notice, or some ultra wide with custom crop for easier encoding/smaller size).

I loved the old ones, I hope this is good enough for today.

depending on how much they rely on some of the feature that renders across frames, it might be better to stick to higher frame rate low res compare to lower frame rate but higher base res.

yeah, putting some description on the side or in a "?" button would be nice.

One of the game that my son played enough to max out the coins(9999 or 99999 I forgot) past collecting anything from the gacha ball machine. Guess that's how good it is. :)

looks interesting and the trailer makes it a bit confusing to me. Basically the mechanism for the camera involves BSP and the camera frustum as both the cutting and pasting "space". Say in Dreams you can copy a region of your creation and then paste it somewhere else using like a box selector, you can also add/delete a region using your creation. So this is a simplify of that and make the process into a game. I might get it cause I like puzzle games.
