Luckily they nerfed that ability by a ton.

It used to increase strength by 70%, so in combination with other augments you could get a ridiculous 500% strength or even more.

In Dark Arisen it only increases strength 20%, and there is hard limit of 180% strength even if your combined augments would mathematically make it higher.

I really like Assassin versatility (being able to equip 12 skills and 4 weapon types, including the best sniping ability, explosive area of effect, counter moves, perfect blocks, climbing, etc) so I'm glad it isn't super OP like before.

I think the limit is actually 80%, not 180.

Literally cannot wait to dive back into this and take shit loads of photos again.
When I was playing Horizon, the lack of options in the game for taking action shots really made me want to play this again.

Platinumed DD on ps3, but never touched the dark arisen stuff.

Really excited for this. Loved the game when I played it, and this looks to be a decent improvement on everything. Would be nice to have 60fps but I’ll take a solid 30 over whatever the hell we had on ps3!

Really hoping the "data to start application" on ps4 is the intro/character creation. It's over 7 gigs so I'm assuming it is. That'll tide me over till it finishes downloading.

1 more hour!

The fucking bloody idiocy of me "pre-ordering" the game in the PSN and yet due to the game being locked and now I am at work I can only start the game a lot longer than many other people out there.

BLOOODY HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL.

Yep, the OP mentioned this.

Probably best to message the OP too so he's not missing your name to be added to the OP.

Great shot man.

Thanks! It's one of my characters. I never wanted to delete my old save files so I played on multiple log ins. Had to even use memory card on the x360 so I could create even more save files.

I spent as much time in photo mode as the actual game. Loved just dressing up characters, waiting for the correct lighting, fixing the angles etc then getting the perfect shot.

photo mode and playing dress-up are DD's meta-game.

Decided to preorder this game using my Amazon credit.

"Delivery Date unknown"

Uh oh.
Click to expand...

Same thing happened to me. I preordered it on Friday with the the free $10 credit and it said unknown delivery time. I decided to wait and see if it would change but it never did. I canceled it this afternoon then used the Amazon credit to buy a $10 PSN card and purchased it digitally.

I'm so ready to jump back in to this game.

Y'all better take and upload a bunch of pictures. I'm sick of seeing those nasty compressed low-res shots from 2012 and 2013 whenever I try finding images of the game. I'll never get my very special Fournival Feste Fiesta going if I keep getting cockblocked by compression artifacts.

I don't remember the character shadows being as shockingly bad last gen, but I'm wondering if I don't remember it because they just weren't there. It's really distracting when I have my lantern on, because they get huge and they're just... really disgusting.

By the way, hint for newcomers: If you're not a mage and are therefore not responsible for your elemental buffs, the Help! command (left on dpad) will have a pawn put one on for you. Just whenever.


And this is a first, but Reynard just straight up didn't spawn for me. Seriously, ran back and forth along the path, like, three times. Didn't see him, didn't even hear him. Just nothing. And now I have no merchant until Gran Soren and I'm gonna have to restart and painstakingly recreate my characters... again.

I remember this game being highly talked about back in the day but I never got to play it. For $30 I'm willing to try, does it run at 60fps?

No... :(

Should be a solid 30 though, which is leagues better than how it ran on PS3 and 360. Better IQ on top of that, too.
