I like the armour system. Less cheesiness.

The leveling makes you feel like you're improving and I mean if it is like first game you won't get higher then level 25 which is like killing everything. Even friends.

Nah. You can be level 10 against a level 6 in this game, if you aren't geared you're done because of the stupid armor system.
Works both ways, so far. There are enemies with a lot more physical armor than magical, and vice-versa, forcing you to concentrate your attacks to exploit weaknesses. It's also nice that certain effects, like knock-down seem a lot more likely to happen if physical armor has been pierced. Fighters also have abilities to get back armor.
Nice system so far, though I could see it becoming kind of a drag late game.

The game network has always been crap for me and the dev has always been completely unhelpful with this issue. I don't recommend the game.

Damn it, I msised it :(

EDIT: A humblebundle. Sadly it doesn't have the already discount price for SEA region Steam has.

PUBG, Divinity Original Sin 2 stand out as extremely impressive, but something interesting that is creeping up is the serious legs of Rainbow Six

For you.
Oh nice. I was going to pick it up off Humble for $2 but forgot to pull the trigger. edit: I might still do that. This bundle doesn't do much for me.

I recommend King of Dragon Pass. And you can always sell the others on the Group Buys group.

Didn't knew Larian hired Bethesda's software engineers.

The game's crashing for me everytime i reload a save while ingame because of bloated savefiles.

RIP Quickload

Whatever happened to the PC port of Powerslave?

Pretty sure it was released and then quickly taken down. I think I got to download it. Guy who worked on it had been busy working on the official Turok 1 and 2 ports. He's probably working on another official release. Maybe Turok 3.

listen to the mad man
What has Night Dive been up to since Turok 2? Besides the System Shock remake, I mean.

They released Sexy FMV game "Tender Loving Care", but not much besides. It seems like both having grabbed a lot of the low hanging fruit and having pivoted most of their resources towards System Shock, they are not able to sustain the pace they once were.

I'm really glad for Larian's success. I'm only in the first act, but the game is incredible thus far.

I'e heard this game is basically a must for co-op? Having only played one of their previous titles, how true is this? I usually rpg alone.

So ive always wondered :

When the only Antialiasing options in a Game are either FXAA, MLAA or SMAA. which one should one pick as best ?

Nice system so far, though I could see it becoming kind of a drag late game.

Enemy armor totals rapidly become inflated to the point where generic mooks sport more than twice the armor your characters do. That ratio just gets worse as the game progresses.

It's just so tedious.

Even after I was playing Divine Divinity and Divinity II, I was hoping they'd really knock their next game out of the park and gamers would reward them for it.

I love gaming success stories.

I haven't tried co-op yet, to my disappointment, though from following the game I know they went far and beyond the already great co-op in the first game. The game can be played just fine solo though. One of the main draws of playing co-op however is for your player companions to follow their own motivations for their character and can act independently, sometimes directly opposed to that of your own. I'm looking forward to starting a co-op campaign when me and my friends can really dedicate time to it, but I also want to play solo to enjoy the game at my own (slow) pace.

I really wish they'd allow you to change your account sign in name.

My sign in is from 13 years ago and my account name is now my old dead name before I transitioned to female. I hate seeing it pop up every time I log in.

And apparently not even the staff can change it.
