You need to have your Bethesda.net account linked to your ResetEra account.
A move to avoid the devs exploiting the upcoming release by constantly changing the intended release date, so nice.
Yeah, I'm
I really enjoyed the first Alice game but never got around to Madness Returns when it came out. Guess I should give it a go.
You should. It's a longer than it should be, but not terribly so. I believe it's only available for purchase on Origin these days though.
Well, that's good. I reported A LOT of devs misusing the New Releases list to put their games repeatedly into the "spotlight".
Rather enjoyed this retrospective. Given the number of years between them, I had forgotten how the original ended and thus the disconnect in story between it and Madness Returns, but the game was so enthralling that I didn't mind at the time. I too would love a 3rd go round with McGee shaping Alice's world, but would also like the ideas and mechanics of the original to be done with other works.
>:C
Guess I did make an account for Anthem that I haven't used since the beta...
How is the ps3 version?
This is honestly why I held off on playing the second, when I saw impressions of it that talked about that. Didn't feel the game needed a sequel, then before long I just forgot about it. Beat the original like 10 times or something and still have the box around somewhere.
Has been for the past 10ish hours. Oddly enough they don't include Kage in it @_@
Capcom pls
at least release his character pack standalone on the Steam store
I would've bveen fine spending $20 for all 4 characters in a pack....
What happened to Halo MCC? If the plan was releasing
Are the characters out yet?

any alan wake pc vets here?
I have a pc server connected to a TV in the living room. The game runs like shit but that's to be expected, however when I try to run the game fullscreen the audio defaults to the server's speakers, windowed it goes to the TV as usual. When I try to disable the server's sound capabilities the game just goes silent (on fullscreen) and won't use the other sound device. When I switch it back to windowed and restart the game the sound then works again.

Seems it scored a bit lower than Endless Legend. The king is still on top.
I started playing Hellblade and I have to say, while I haven't played all the newest hotness, it probably has the best acting and facial expressions I've seen in a game. Like, I get that playing "person with psychosis" can be a real problematic thing, but if I'm just looking at "emotion trying to be conveyed" and divorce it from the context, there's some really convincing acting by Melina Juegens here.
Naughty Dog's stable of actors have, and rightly so, received a lot of plaudits for their performances, but Melina Juergens raised the bar something fierce. There's a potent rawness and enthralling conviction to literally everything she does that places her well and truly beyond the reach of her peers. She fucking earned that BAFTA.
Yeah, rawness and conviction are probably the best descriptors. There's a scene, right near the beginning of the game where she gets the rot on her arm and there's something so convincing about the way she acts out the pain of it happening. So many actors "act" severe pain, and while you get what they are going for, it usually feels acted. The way Melina did it, it didn't seem like acting, it was legitimately hard to watch (and kudos to the animators who undoubtedly had to do a lot of work to maintain the performance).
EDIT: I'll say this - Naughty Dog's actors are likely hamstrung not by the quality of the material they are given, but the genres. As 'heavy' as Last of Us tries to get, it's always going to be limited by still being genre fiction.

Yeah, all they've said is winter so far, but it's nice to see they'll be supporting it for a while.
I kinda want to go to GamesCom, since its just like 20km from here, but I dont want to go during the normal days....
I went there one time during the press days, since a friend helped building some stalls and it was soooo comfortable.

Cant you try to get a press pass through Era? PC-Era official envoy!
The planned release date was August 30th and out of the blue they have released the game..... right after the shootings. That's more than insensitive.
It's a heist game. You can take hostages in this game and you also can shoot the hostages.
EDIT: Maybe i'm just overreacting.

I originally played it on 360, but I've not heard anything awful about the PS3 version. I've not heard anything great either, so.
Melina Juergens' rawness is probably due to her not actually being an actor, but rather a video editor at Ninja Theory who had to stand in to start with, until she ended up getting the lead role. Which is even more impressive.
I know it's Gameindustry.biz but that is really useless article, that simply tells one side of the story, as most here recognise.
There certainly seems to have been no "shock" from the communications provided on their part, and ask one of the price "community" of theirs originally, it seems clear they don't understand their own audience either.
No one would have any issues with developers looking out for themselves and avoiding risk, but having contempt for your customers and in essence lying to them, and dismissing all their issues as well as justified reasoning for either not buying / avoiding the Epic Store, is ridiculous
Still one-sided and deflective.
And not having a PR agency or Person is not an excuse that should be used. If someone said something offensive, it shouldn't be excused with the lack of PR.
Yes and Epic Games recently bought the studio.
I said better! I have some issues with it (such as not all the comments being out of context as they said, and the husband being much more confrontational and bad at PR than the wife, not comparing with other no-shitstorm EGS exclusives in similar situations like in Goose), but it at least wasnt totally one-sided.
I wonder how seasoned actors feel about being one upped by a video editor.
Impressive all around, and based on all the dev blogs she seems like a delightful person too.
Of course Eniko is out there on Twitter calling people who don't like Epic's moves gamergaters or buying in to gamergater-instigated propaganda. The amount of gaslighting around this entire subject is completely spiraling out of control. Why would people go to these lengths because they think everyone should up and like Epic's initiatives? I can already feel that this narrative is going to take root and it sucks. Sorry to bring this in here but I had to vent this some of this frustration.
