@wretched I've been wanting that one to be finished since the initial trailer, glad to see more in game footage and stuff. Looks to be a good game I hope!
Hello! Long time listener, first time caller...
-
@lithium You and me both. I have a lot of faith in CD Projekt Red... so here's hoping.
-
The Walking Dead: The Final Season is out for pre-order.
Steam, I'm disappointed in you for burying it.
Very, very disappointed.
-
@thenomain IT's not buried so much as it was announced earlier in the week.

My Steam store page absolutely buried it, regardless of who else heard or read what.
(edit: which makes me sad. telltale's the walking dead is on my 'shut up and take my money' list.)

Here's Fallout 76
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLiwrvso7kwSo far to me it looks like a Fallout version of Rust. I can already see some of the problems in playing this game from my experience with said Rust.

ELDER SCROLLS VI
Shut up, I know it's a teaser trailer and it's probably years off, but let me have this.
-
@thenomain Right but it was buried because of the sheer amount of things that are put on the store on a daily basis. The way Steam is right now new postings will change daily and bury it. So more you need a time machine than it was buried.
-
@jaded I mean, nukes worked SO well with Metal Gear Solid V, right?
-
@insomnia
I'm going to admit I have not played any of the last 3 MGS games and I was not asked to review them. So I will have to take your word for it that it was not an ideal game addition, if my sarcasm detector is reading you right.But. Even without that. I agree. And what I imagine will happen is that people will form up into clans and then build bases on top of the nuke facilities to dominate control of them.

For those of you that saw the 'trailer' for the Skyrim Very Special Edition, it's an actual thing for those of you that have an Alexa.
I don't, but for those of you that do, try it and report back.
-
@jaded There is a secret MGS 5 ending that requires all of the players to remove all their nukes. It was found through data mining.
-
@Insomnia
Oh well I am not surprised it was found only through data mining then.On another note I am looking forward to Starfire.
-
Cyberpunk 2077 takes a dig at loot boxes. So looking forward to it even more.
-
@insomnia Belatedly, this game is prolly my 2018 Game of the Year. I mean, I'm just some schmuck, but its mind-boggling number of story-changing choices is something that hasn't been explored so deeply in any other game.
-
I am continuing my astonishment at how modern and relevant CD Projekt Red has made CP2077, without losing what made CP2020 outrageous and colorful in the 1990s.

Do you mean Starfield? Because I'm looking forward to that, yes.
Especially since EA has (temporarily?) given up on the genre after its failed ME:A attempt.

@thenomain
Yeah meant Starfield. -
Now to see if Bethesda can write a storyline to save their life. FO3 wasn't bad, I suppose.

Playing it now!

You all tried real hard, but I pretty much stopped caring about other games when I saw this.
