There is also an audio podcast, if you would rather just listen. I do get that I am the only one willing to watch a full 3 hour video, because who the fuck knows.

I barely have the attention span for an hour and a half movie, let alone a 3-hour video podcast.

EA are giving away Dragon Age: Origins for free on Origin. That's pretty fucking cool.

I actually bought the Ultimate edition last week during some random Steam sale (it was only €5, so no big loss on my part). DA: O has gotten amazing reviews and looks like a pretty cool game. And it's free, so why the fuck not just add it to your Origin library? :P

Because it's Dragon Age: Origins and because Bioware's gameplay systems outside of Mass Effect are shit boring.

I couldn't stand more than an hour or two of it on PS3. Prettier graphics aren't going to make me change my mind because I feel the core gameplay is very flawed.

"Alex Amancio, the game's Creative Director, reiterated this point: "30 was our goal, it feels more cinematic. 60 is really good for a shooter, action adventure not so much. It actually feels better for people when it's at that 30fps. It also lets us push the limits of everything to the maximum."

things i want to feel cinematic: films
things i don't want to feel cinematic: vidya games

As I always say, I'll take 720p/60 FPS over 1080p/30 FPS. A game feeling smooth is more important than cranking the graphics settings up to the relatively low max of 8th gen consoles.

It also gives me just a tad more wiggle room for mods, but Ubi has never cared for us PC users, so whatever.

i agree with this. I attempted to play the first Dragon Age and its gameplay mechanics were god awful.

It would actually be a little fun to test playing a game for a little while locked at 30 FPS and play it with a controller. It's been so fucking long since I've played on my PS3 that I can hardly remember what 30 FPS feels and looks like.

Welp.

It figures the modding community would have a fix for this 720p bullshit. I wasn't particularly worried about that, but I am a bit surprised about how quickly it happened.

I'd have to hope that FFXV, if it comes to PC, has more/better graphics options. Not being able to change the resolution, texture quality, etc, is some bullshit. That's the whole *advantage* of the PC market, and not having good settings nullifies that.

I'll still buy these because $16 or less for graphics that will be better to me (because no HDTV) is a decent deal, plus it'll show there's a market for future FF releases on PC. The more JRPGs come to PC, the better for me. I only buy Nintendo consoles for Nintendo games/the third-party JRPGs, anyway.

Yup, leave it to modders to fix games. That is actually the most pathetic thing I have ever seen. I guess this is why console devs don't really make PC games, eh?

Could they please just give Raichu a mega. It would be good if he was more useful competitively.

Eh, it's more so the Japanese market has little use for PC outside of VNs/indie titles, so even the major Japanese developers have little to no experience with PC. I guess Capcom brings RE to PC, but beyond that?

It's still not as bad as the original Dark Souls PC version btdubs.

Also hyyyyyyyyped for all the sky stuff. I re-played Sapphire to get legends to trade for other stuffs/put in my living dex, but it's nice to see that all legends will be available in this gen. I might have to reconsider based on which version gets which ones, because Arceus knows they'll be split between games.
