Polygon's issue with the "female lead" is that she's a "damsel in distress" and not like the female lead of Fury Road
Dear Polygon....this isn't based on Fury Road

Yeah, the "test" tools popped up a few days ago.

I really have no problem with someone being a damsel in distress for story purposes. It's fine. Tropes exist because there is an audience that likes them.
Completed pre-loads decrypt automatically. Steam runs a check every five minutes.
Good to know, thanks!

Not yet. It was supposed to unlock for Europe half an hour ago, but Valve forgot to flip the switch.
Edit: Speak of the devil.

All of you guys who bit on PC are making me sad that I have to wait until 11 for my Xbox One version to unlock.

Your compressed package that you preloaded is being unpacked and decrypted so you can play it.

An 8 would be the perfect score imo. I'm enjoying the side activities more than in any Ubisoft game. They are nothing special but ressources are scarce, so these missions make sense (so far).

so far the reviews are averaging a 7 and the expected range was between 7-8...not seeing the big deal

wow...
why does it take that long ._.
Only ~six minutes to go here, but I have Steam installed on an SSD.

I should do that aswell but my SSD is already filled up with BF4, GTA V and Star Citizen
If any site struggled to split the two I knew it would be Polygon.

Yeah it depends on the speed capabilities of the HDD the game is installed too. I have it on a 1TB 7200 RPM HDD and it's going to take about 20 minutes it looks like to unpack.

Had 2 hours on it. Its good but not great from what I've played. Nothing particularly bad about it. Visually looks good and the combat is solid. Car mayhem is the best, feels great ploughing into someone and wrecking them. Early impressions are it's a 7/10 but that's based on 2 hours play. I'd say at this early stage if you enjoyed mordor you should get on with this.
It's solid good fun but doesn't feel special if that makes any sense. Still looking forward to delving into it more tomorrow

It isn't a big deal as reviews mean nothing.
Reviews are simply the opinion of 10-12 people who happen to be paid to write about games. This doesn't mean they are better informed than anyone else.

meanwhile in the US for the PC Version...
"Pre-load Complete"
sigh
I honestly couldn't care less about reviews. Everything I've seen about the game from streams and information released has me wanting to play it. Also the impressions here on GAF from members who have had the chance to play early have been positive.

Whats really throwing me off is that the timer is gone from the Steam Store Page but you can still pre-order.

how does it run

I went ahead and bought it digitally just now. I had a bunch of credit from various deals so it didn't really cost me anything from my paycheck. I loved what I saw in videos and I actually love Batman style combat. I'm not that big on Ubisoft style quest design but so long as the core gameplay is fun, it won't matter. I often ignore quests in open world games and just randomly kill things sometimes and have fun even if I'm not really accomplishing anything in the game. If it turns out I don't like it as much as I thought I would, oh well. But the reviews read off in such a way that I don't distrust what I've seen so far. They may end up being right but nothing in print seems to be setting off any alarms right now.
London - UK works. Unpacking now.

Was gonna wait for a sale for a PS4 copy but decided to dive in for PC. Something to do when I'm not Metal Gear-ing.

Any in game framerate cap options? Probably going to try doing high settings @ 1080P with 30FPS cap. Have a 780 GTX but no clue what to expect for performance. That is about what I got out of Shadow of Mordor though.
