Sweet, ReCore looked interesting.

*sigh* Guess I need to git gud at Hearthstone now. That's pretty sick though, analysing, actual exercise and learning about team work. Some real world skills, not just "playing a game". It sounds like they're going about this the right way, which is really cool to see.

*edit*

This subject will be one of three courses that students choose themselves (unless this is something completely different). Things like psychology, physics, sociology, photography etc.

Simply unacceptable. I expected 60 FPS because, I don't fucking know, THE ORIGINAL GAME WAS AT 60 FPS. You know, the Tales standard until Zestiria. I expected resolution options because they're a standard PC feature, but NOOOOOOOOOO, locked to 720p because fuck you I guess.

It's not like I was expecting all the bells and whistles here. This game doesn't need in-depth lighting options, physics, and whatnot. I expected a better looking version of an already great game, and it sounds like we didn't even get that.

The only bright side is that Zestiria was a great port (60 FPS issue notwithstanding) and a fun game. It also gave us Edna and she's the best. I didn't light $50 on fire, in other words. Even so, I'm not going to pre-order Berseria, as much as I want to support JRPGs/Japanese gaming on PC. I just don't know if I'll get another Zestiria or this.

Blah. Fuck console developers.


EDIT: I'm sure I could play through it if I wanted to, but the question then would be... Why? The GCN version is easy to find and play on Dolphin, or even a GCN/Wii if you can't/won't use Dolphin. Dolphin is arguably the best experience, though not one I advocate unless you've bought the game. Even the PS3 version feels superior to this, despite it being the one this PC port is based on. It's locked to 30 FPS, which kinda sucks, but it's not something I noticed when I played through that version because the framerate just does not dip. The PC version's does, and for all sorts of dumb reasons. I could literally sit in the first room and see semi-frequent dips to 29 FPS. It even dips during *cutscenes*. You'd think the framerate would be steady because there's less going on during a cutscene, but lol fuck that.

Game feels unresponsive, it looks like a blurry mess on my monitor, the graphics options are unimpressive even by bad PC port standards, and basically everything else in the article adds up to a terribad PC port. My hardware could easily get 60 FPS at 1440p. It does with Zestiria, which is far more demanding and looks far better, and it dips much less often than this does. This is atrocious.

Buy the PS3 version if you must buy an HD version; it's $5 this week and comes with the sequel. Most fans hate the sequel, but HOT TAEK: I enjoy playing it. Playing is the key word; the first half of the story is cringe-worthy and Emil isn't a great lead even by Tales standards. (Marta and Tenebrae are good though.)

At least it *sounds* good, but that's as much a function of the OST as it is my bitchin' ATH-M50s. I got a Presea trading card out of it, so that's something.

http://www.destructoid.com/go-on-sign-up-for-a-nintendo-account-342029.phtml?

There's no reason not to at least sign up, since I know most of us have at least one of the Wii U or 3DS. Some of us will probably get the NX/try the mobile games, too.

I'm curious as to what the new "loyalty" program will be. Ideally it'd let me register everything I already own somehow and get points for it, but as if that's going to happen.

But yeah, sign up and stuffs.


EDIT: Miitomo pre-registration is open, too. I doubt I'll use it much, but hey, free points.

THERE'S A FEW THINGS MISSING HERE.

I guess I'll sign up still, and then just change the country of residence some day.
Now...where do I want to live? :p

Disappointed that the "five minutes" rumor was pretty much true, though, and that they didn't show any footage. I guess you have to save something for later, but this is a 2016 game and I imagine they have *something* they could have shown. Even a new Pokemon or two would have resulted in moar hype.

Ah well. It's Pokemon, so Ninty knows we're going to be hype anyway.

$1,500,000 will bring Rock Band 4 to PC. I've never contributed to a crowdfund before, but I think I might after I get out of bed.

>no PC version

So what the fuck was the point of the XIII ports then? They likely made profit on PS3/360, so bringing them to PC only makes sense if... Well, I guess if they thought it was profitable... But I mean if they were learning how to do quality ports so PC would get FFXV.

There's the possibility that a PC version just hasn't been leaked/has a later launch date I suppose. If I were to guess, I'd guess early 2017 for a PC version, assuming it exists.

But if it doesn't, I don't fucking care.
