What fee is this? I just went to the purchase screen for paypal and it didn't indicate any additional fee (I canceled out 'tho).

It is on the last screen before you send money via friends and family to someone outside of Canada. Its $3 if the money you are sending is over $3.

[arts&crafts]

I sent someone money a week ago but it was $3 exactly so I guess I just squeaked in under the wire.

The fee actually just started yesterday or the day before If its below $3 (For example the bundle was $1.76) the fee was $1.76 so it is really dumb.

Started Arkham Oranges. Did I change, did the times changes, do I like Yakuza better now or was the free flow system always shit but everyone thinks it's good because it looks cool? So many combos end because Bats targets not the enemy right next to him, sometimes he makes insane leaps to an enemy and sometimes he refuses to make two steps to punch someone. And the best is not hitting the enemy you want to hit.

You are just bad at the game.

Who's ready to see Hollow Knight completed in less than 1 hour?

53 minutes from SGDQ... great to see it returning, and seemingly more optimised given the target time.

 

[arts&crafts]

I suppose they're trying to curtail people using F&F when they're actually buying and selling.

Yea, but why only Canada and not the rest of the world?

Dream game that will never happen: X-Wing vs Tie Fighter 2 with dynamic campaigns for both sides. Also MP support.

So far EA’s Star Wars output is just bumming me out and I quite often think of the cool game concepts we will never see again.

I liked using Paypal.
I sure won't use it anymore =/

Same, I often get sad thinking about all the cool Star Wars games we used to get while EA is now basically wasting the license.

At least FFG's output for board and card games is good.

 

[Lanrutcon]

Eh, I compared them because both are more button mashy. My playthrough of City and Asylum are too long ago for me to remember how they were. I have Knight, too, though I won't start it until next year.



Did the controller support in Grim Dawn get better? Last time I played it, it was awful.

Not sure how it was earlier, but apart from inventory management it's pretty slick.

Maybe using Canada as a test before rolling out internationally.

That would suck so bad if true.

Did a Windows update kill the Wii U Pro Controller workaround where you’d just hit next when it asks for the PIN and it would still pair. I can’t get this to work at all now.

B-b-but poor optimization. 🙄

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

It's so hard to learn lessons from your past games in a community that values sales over day-to-day purchasing. I mean, I have a fairly good grasp on the takeaway from my last project, but still. Well, at least the Halloween sale is soon enough, starting the gauntlet of final three sales of the year.

Perfect timing

Friggin perfect.

Man, IHNMAIMS is such a cool game.

There are PayPal alternatives out there already. Venmo seems to be reasonably popular, might be worth trying out. I live in the U.S. though so I have no idea what is available worldwide.

Did you have a stroke during this sentence?

Edit: Oh I know what game it is.

I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream.

Seriously, all you had to do was Google that acronym.

Oh I forgot about that. It's weird because separate accounts and systems and whatnot. Still, maybe it doesn't have the fee yet?

Now I can’t even pair my DS4 controller what the hell

Doki Doki Literature Club! is quite something.

It's not really possible to say much without spoiling something, but I will say that it was definitely worth the 3½ hours I put into it. The soundtrack is also lovely, so I'll probably be picking up the DLC down the line to get a copy of that and to support the developer.

Will try it sometime. Thanks!

Lost my DOOM save progress (I even backed it up and it disappeared too, weird). Was recording. I have to restart. Great. At least I get to enjoy the ride again.

Wow that sucks. Only will buy games from people through Paypal if the price is good from now on. I've already stopped buying new games anyways though.

As usual, us Canadians get screwed.

I'm pretty hyped for Monster Hunter actually, too bad that's not coming this year.

I wasn't hyped for DOS2 at all but it's probably one of my favorite CRPGs of all time now. XD

The game is amazing. I had some moments of frustration with the learning curve but I always came back for more and now that I know what I'm doing it's even better.

Yeah, that was my first roadblock as well. Do all the sidequests you can find to get better gear.
Putting shields on my characters was the gamechanger for me, they give you the shield up ability which replenishes physical and magical armor.
Don't go into the room or the archers will destroy you, stay back and let them come after you, in the meantime take care of the others.

There are multiple escape routes, and sneaking is very effective even if you don't have points in sneaking.

Focusing down a single character, looting them mid-fight and then running away is perfectly viable.

Edit: Teleportation is the solution to problems you didn't even know you had.

You cannot purchase multiple things at one time on Origin. Guess I will get one of those stupid cards.

To be fair, nobody uses Origin for third-party games, so odds are the vast majority of people do browse the store with a specific title in mind.

Yeah too bad poor optimization doesn't mean anything for overall reviews, see pubg or Nier or any Koei Tecmo game or anything else with terrible performance.

The game still performs like crap.

NieR: Automata performs great on certain PC configurations. It's not meant to excuse the issues a lot of people had with it, but I think it's important to note that not everyone experienced those issues. I can't speak to PUBG or The Evil Within 2.

Posted more in the Warframe topic currently in gaming, but that game man....

The short of it is that it's completely off-putting for a new player like me, for several reasons.

It might be better than Destiny 2 on a systems level, but at this point I think I'd rather just try Destiny 2 anyway. The analogy I made was that it seems to be like the Diablo III vs. Path of Exile situation.

To make a point: the current EVE Online tutorial, which still isn't very good mind you, is better than what I experienced in Warframe's first few hours.

Maybe I've changed, but I don't think I should have to feel like I need to watch tutorial videos/streams and/or read a wiki within the first couple hours of gameplay, even for an extremely dense game. That's just not good design, and even if it's intentional to an extent - the marketing/general air about the game doesn't radiate that.

Completely agree. The only reason I managed to understand the game is that I started playing with a friend who had been playing it for a year prior.

The wiki and the Reddit are where you'd get most of the info. The game says nothing about itself. Even now, the changes to the gameplay brought by the expansion aren't even displayed anywhere in the game itself.
