You probably removed a gear that adds +1 intuition talent.None of the plants and items outside are highlighted with the gold glow anymore. Looks like it stopped working 3 hours ago after vising one of the major settlements. Going to have to go back as I'm not sure if it's also affecting the map collection stuff too. Crates still glow, and newly killed monsters glow too.
Xbox players, how does it look in HDR? Also, is there screentearing or is that just this stream on Mixer?
Kurt starts with a +1 lockpicking chest armor that you can "borrow" when needed.Tip for Charisma-inclined starters like me:
Take Lockpicking first instead. You can buy capes from the merchant in the starting area for your empty back-slot that add Charisma +1. They're only around 50 gold.
Can't really comment on the HDR - the brightness slider is busted, so it's hard to get a feel for it. The game looks good to my eyes though.
BUT - there is definitely screen tearing. It's not constant, when it pops up seems inconsistent - but it's there and occasional enough for me to notice it. Not a deal breaker for me, but a bit of a disappointment. Also has me slightly concerned, as I'm still only in the starting city - hopefully later areas are less taxing, or about the same. If the tearing happened more frequently than it is currently I'd be more bothered by it
Very impressed with the opening city, Serene. Honestly I wasn't expecting that level of ambient/environmental storytelling — bodies burning in the streets, the cries of the sick & diseased filling the air, a fair amount of NPC banter and 'stuff' going on — it isn't Witcher 3 or RDR2 tier, obviously, but incredibly well done nonetheless. Much of my 3 hour session last night was just walking around soaking in the atmosphere. Strong writing & voice acting, some cool bits of lore, still very early but this game is legit.
My final character unintentionally came out looking a lot like Yennifer. She's a mage so I'm here for it. While I wish there was a hide headgear option, I'm already all in on 'FashionFalls'. Similar to Souls I'll just sacrifice headgear stat gains unless I absolutely need the boost, but man, even some of these early armor sets are fantastic. Can't wait to play more.
Me too. But I'm quite interested how much budget Spiders will get for their next game from BigBen.
Seriously - they are coming up on Anna Purina levels of publishers I'll grab most anything from. Just recently we've have had A Plague Tale: Innocence, Remnant: From Ashes, and now GreedFall.
Many people already predicted that BigBen isn't going to give them a bigger budget.
That would fucking blow. Give this studio 10-20 million and watch the next bioware grow.
They're getting good in the gameplay departement. Everything on top of that could be made better with a bigger budget and more time.

Yep, they've published some great stuff.
Remnant was Perfect World, not Focus (still a great game though)
Game makes me ill. Hopefully they will patch in options for the camera bobbing while running and auto-adjusting camera.
I have a feeling we'll have better idea of BigBen's intentions once we get a look at Cyanide's Werewolf: The Apocalypse- Earthblood.
I don't exactly have high hopes for that one.
Maybe because what I really want for Werewolf is a Bloodlines equivalent.
Yep, that's the one. My bad, I guess I'm just anticipating more jank than there actually is!If it is the one that you get from the Quartermaster, I think you have to go to the island to complete it.
I don't have the game in front of me, but I'm trying to figure out what Talents you can craft onto armor? Which is a pretty big bonus considering you only get 3 levels of Talents. I have only seen Talents crafted onto the middle point on chest armor only. But I haven't gotten far in the world yet. Unless later armor pieces have other slots. I know the DLC gloves have +1 crafting, so maybe that's available eventually?
It looks like you can craft +1 lockpicking, +1 charisma, +1 science and +1 vigor onto the chest slot (going from memory).
I plan on keeping 1 chest of each. Anyone find anything else?
Hmm, I'm supposed to "scout the harbour master's office" but nothing happens, the icon just sits in the middle of the street, bug? Also, when trying to activate the side missions for my party members they keep telling me I'm busy and to come back, lol.
By turning off DS4 Steam support in BPM?
It usually turns off vibration in other games, is that also the case here? I need my vibrations.
Im trying to recreate what I did because it has been so long since Ive messed with these settings. But I remember turning of xbox, generic, AND playstation configuration support since they were giving me issues. Just running the game with out those and my prompts show up with PS buttons.Wait, on PC? How did you do that? I'm playing on PC using Steam (first time playing with a controller on PC) and it still has XBOX button prompts.

Right now they are unchecked and sure enough this game works natively with the ds4. For what it's worth, I do not use BIG PICTURE MODE. But I do not think that matters once you change those in your Settings--->controller menu.
EDIT: Damn I just noticed I didnt have vibrations all this time after you said that lol. Oh well, small price to pay imo.

Take Lockpicking first instead. You can buy capes from the merchant in the starting area for your empty back-slot that add Charisma +1. They're only around 50 gold.
You don't have to take lockpicking first, you can simply take off Kurk's armor and put it on (it has +1 lockpicking) which lets you open any chest in the tutorial area so you don't miss any loot.
Which is a pain in the backside if you're trying to do the Naut area in disguise.
They might patch it. If not, there'll probably a mod for it on PC. But yeah, the option should've been there on release.I couldn't even watch the ACG review because of the camera shake/wobble while walking and running. Holy crap and I bet you can't even disable that...
