Watching some movies on the web I've the feeling we'll see very huge polish and brazilian guilds who will try to dominate and dictate the whole game.

Hmh, being a long lasting Tibia player this game certainly looks interesting to me.

But I'll wait for the release to decide weather I'll buy it or not.

One of the games I thought "damn sad it won't be on Linux".
Would be great if it will be released for Linux too.

Quoting: metro2033fanboyGood lord...I hope not...i eager to play it for more than 2 hours without getting dead bored!
Quoting: STiATIs it somewhat comparable to DA: Origins combat and story whise?
I had over 400 hours on that title with all expansions. It was certainly fun to me ;-). Sadly, the successors were bad.

Vendetta: Curse of Raven’s Cry Officially Announced, Big Update For Raven's Cry
19 Oct 2015 at 9:13 pm UTC

I didn't play it for too long (~28 hours), mainly due to massive bugs and a very low framerate I didn't continue (GTX560 didn't seem to cut it, maybe 760 will be a bit better :D).

They said often in the forums that they're addressing a lot of the old issues of the original game with this update. I hope they did, because the game and setting does have a huge potential, and basically it was fun to play.

I'll certainly get it - since it's for free for me, and test it.

Now I know what I'll buy myself for Christmas: Steam Controller and SteamLink (I want SteamLink for playing in the living room, don't want to move my PC there) :-).

AMD Lose Another Big Name, This Time To Nvidia
15 Oct 2015 at 11:25 am UTC

I've been an Intel/NVidia buyer for years now, mainly due to the reason that at that time, AMD basically only had proprietary drivers as NVidia back then (and NVidias were better), and I always enjoyed Intels openness.

Since the development of the open source drivers and opening up of documentation by AMD, I'm having a good look at AMD, but still see a general decline by developers. NVidia still has the best (proprietary) driver around, Intel is pretty good for working, but the performance does not hit it for gaming. Intel drivers are undergoing huge changes and restructuring as well, and will do so for some time to come (they're switching to atomic, so are fully rewriting core and drivers, and have some kind of ... "middleware" which holds old-code and new-code together which results in [a lot] of ugly hacks).

I'd love to buy a AMD next time I buy a computer, but hands down, I'm not certain that AMD will be a comparable choice to NVidia with their proprietary drivers by then. But they're welcome to surprise me.
