Bound by flame, completed it on ps3 and ps4, I enjoyed it big time despite all it flaws, still not 100% sure why.

Surge are good dark souls clones, bit more action and gadgets then dark souls but at times just as hard.

Technomancer was the least of that list to me

My criticism here continues though, why do vendors keep sticking in such a low amount of RAM with obviously power-focused machines?

To keep the base price lower :)
1149 sounds better then 1194, to at least get you to follow the link.
Same in supermarkets etc. etc.

Pretty baffled after read these posts.

First of all we are talking about companies, the only other place I see emotions get so high is when there is any article about apple on tweakers.net.
Gog, valve, they exist to make money, valve decided they do that their way with millionsthey have so they can keep making money even if Microsoft creates the walled garden, gog feels the overhead is not worth it or they simply do not have it, and for now focus on the big market.

Use them for what they are good at, old school games ready for scummvm or dosbox etc, go gog, you get them, drm free, download them and your done, there won't be a gazillion patches for which you need an automated client. New stuff enjoy steam, and it's great all there efforts help linux gaming and wine.

Just remember they are companies :)

Quoting: BumadarThat was fast, when I read it here and checked out there forum it was pretty much doom and gloom, the programmer was ready to stop.

I disagree strongly with how it is currently being run, but i'm still not interested in maintaining the current version. As long as some people want to maintain it, that's fine. Find a new name please.

Bah, I just read through that whole post, why do things always go ugly

Quoting: RussianNeuroMancerThis is the right decision. It's absolutely crazy what Russian government do right now, and not only government - around 70% citizens believe in propaganda, and honestly wish Ukrainians death. There is just no point to release this DLC until Russia citizens change their mind, and I don't expect it to happen anytime soon.

Quoting: KimyrielleIt's the right call. Unfortunately, in this case, there was no unpolitical decision available. It's a shame that they blew so much money on making a product they in all likelihood will never be able to sell before it is horribly outdated. The time it will take for Russia to be an accepted member of the international community again will be measured in decades, not years...

Not arguing at all about the fact that what is happening in the Ukraine is wrong, it is.

But I honestly feel that what the west is doing now towards the Russian people is so very very flawed. Going after the rich and influential people there, go for it. But cutting the normal Russian off from everything is only pushing them more into the corner we don't want them to be.

What will this accomplish really? Nothing it will just make a gamer go f*** this, stupid West/developer. He is not going onto the streets and demonstrate with the risk of a jail timer longer then what you get in some countries for a murder, no he will go like hmmm maybe all the news I see every day (the propaganda) has some truth.

I also have no correct solution for it all, but I do feel that cutting the normal Russian off from the world (no google/apple pay/xbox/sony ps,no more games to buy on steam, etc etc) is not the way.

Let the Flaming start :)

Quoting: GuestWonderful news! Very interested to see what they open source. :huh:

A megalomaniac billionaire who does not tolerate criticism buys twitter, what could go wrong....

As for the opem source, so what, open source twitter algorithms won't be any better or worse then if they would be closed source. He had to loan a lot of $$$ to make this happen, he will want to make a profit.

Quoting: mircallaLooks interesting, but...

> conquering ancient Gaul with your Roman legions
> reasonably historically accurate
> craters from cannon fire

I think that's from the developer's website where they're comparing persistent effects to North & South not about Roma Invicta itself :whistle:

But but but the gauls had astrix and obelix, and obelix would trash those Romans around leaving craters and such every ;)
