Cool. I'm not upset about the no Guts outfit either because I wanna roll Sorc in glorious 60 FPS.

I tried the pirate version and you can't use downsampling so i'll only purchase when it drops really low on some 3rd party key sites.

I already put hundreds of hours in on console, I can wait.

>>324014590
scrap the sorc they get boring fast. Also you feel like it's unfair when you nuke everything from a distance with malstorm. But have to suffer a lot deaths. Roll mystic knight or magic archer after you're like 100. Their spells are way more fun to use than sorc. Also they're both very versatile damage dealers in BBI.

Me.
Aside from combat system the game has nothing. Exploration is boring, encounters are repetitive, all quests are fetch quests, classes are pretty unbalanced in terms of stat growth as to play a decent magick archer you need to play as a sorcerer for a good chunk of a game to get a non-shit magic growth.

It's also hilariously easy with a full party of pawns. To have a semblance of challenge i was forced to play with my main pawn only, and hard mode doesn't fix those problems but instead fucks up entire level progression.

A real damn shame. I can see a lot of good ideas but they lack polish and variety. Climbing your first cyclop of chimera is fun, doing this for 10th time is boring.

If only it was a fucking bait, buddy.
Even Amalur had better quests and actual questlines instead of endless generic escort and fetch missions. Hell, most regions had some sort of a grand quest going on for it.
Even Amalur had more space for exploration without feeling so empty and boring.
Even Amalur allowed more than 6 active skills.
>>324016316
Amalur was a wasted potential: the game. Pretty much like DD. I don't really rag on it, i'm just surprised that DD has ALL the same problems Amalur had except for hilariously low level cap, and actually manages to be worse at them.

define bland. I found it a very beautiful world to explore. Fixed monster locations are something I love, means you can encounter shit way above your level if you wander the wrong direction. Also, night time is actually dark and usually has more mobs spawn, making it more dangerous.

>repetitive
How? The goal of the game is to kill big monsters. That's what you do. If you think that's repetitive, than you found DaS repetitive as well.
>restrictive combat slots
You can easily swap out skills. It's for balancing reasons. The only class with really restricted slots is Warrior, but 6 slot warrior would easily be OP as fuck.

He probably only played the first hour and only found the first notice board inside the starting village. Those quests ARE "kill X of those", but they're basically bonuses anyway. You kill those monsters anyway, but now you get a sack of gold and an item or some RC for it on top of it.

never said that homeboy, but in a game that is moved forward by swinging a sword, the witcher 3 certaintly takes the fun out of it by having a sloppy combat system that cant decide whether it wants to be action or rpg and ends up feeling like a halfbaked mish mash of the two

>>324016692
>define bland
Empty and lacking hand-placed details thanks to which there's no feeling that you're actually exploring the world.

A good example of an actually good game world is Gothic 2. Everything is placed by hand, exploration is heavily rewarded by unique weapons and stat-boosting items, certain items you can simply find can be a game changer.

DD has a very empty world filled with samey bandits and wolves.

>The goal of the game is to kill big monsters. That's what you do
All good RPGs have a way to break you from repetitive monster killing. Good quests, lots of dialogues with NPCs. It's fine for an ARPG with mostly linear structure to be focused entirely on combat and monster killing. Not an openworld game.

>balancing
It's not a balancing as you end up equipping all strongest skills. It just prevents you from using fun ones.
Game is piss easy already. Let it at least be absolutely cuhrayzee.

>>324016951
the world is ridiculously empty and has almost nothing to explore. how to describe it as a beautiful world to explore is seriously beyond me. it's an ugly box with mob points you run into to do some fighting and here and there find a chest. you do that multiple times even at the same locations since the backtracking is so heavy and you run down the same bland road over and over again while mobs respawning. the amount of doing the same thing at the same places just for the sake of it without any real story progression or interesting value since there is no story and there is no rpg value makes it repetitive. its in the same way repetitive far cry 2 was. but if you disallow calling it repetitive just because "you do things in any videogames and you keep doing these things so its just same same" then fuck you buddy

I just finished the game, it was good but other than the boss fights it was boring as fuck.
Traveling was annoying as fuck with all of the low level enemies blocking your every step and other than the post game and dlc the game was way too easy.
The side quest were tedious as fuck and the reward usually never worth it so the best you can do is to accept all of them then just hope that you will accomplish them while dong thee main quests.
I would say it worth a purchase it just for the bosssfights and it's a must play if you are a Berserk fan.

70% of the witcher 3 IS combat

and its not shit because its easy, its shit because its not skill or execution heavy enough yet happens all in real time. its like this shitty illusion that you are the one doing all of this cool stuff yet if you're the appropriate level for an encounter, you can simply roll around and balerina flip between enemies with your sword gliding through them with no sense of weight until everyone drops

it just doesnt feel good
>>
>>324013180
I'll let you in on my secret to naming characters that is 100% unique doughnut steal. it's a simple two part process

what real world ethnicity does your character look like? if it's a game with fantasy races then go with their closest real world parallels based off of inspiration/stereotypes/folklore/voice actor accent

what keyword(s) describe the play style you'll be going for? could be magic, sorcerer or wise to describe a standard wizard. or crusader, holy, protector for a crusader/paladin type. you get the idea

take those to google translate. pull up a thesaurus if you have to. or check out one of those sites that gives the meaning for names and then shows the equivalent in other languages - wiktionary is typically good at that

basically fuck around with some descriptive words in languages that kind of match your character

I sometimes have more fun doing that than actually playing the game I came up with the name for

yeah that's what I said, and that still doesn't make it shit. it's obvious you've never actually played a game with bad combat to call TW3 bad

nothing you said could make the combat be "bad", just "not as good as it could be", and playing any other TW game, should've set your expectations adequately.

I heard playing as a loli negatively affects a lot of things. Such as being knocked over by gusts of wind and other weak attacks, and having your lantern extinguished when walking through streams because you're too short.
Is that true? I mean it makes sense, but I'm still a bit disappointed that I'll have to play with a handicap if I want to be the little girl.

Because the game positions itself as an actual RPG.
If it was a tighter ARPG experience with smaller but more detailed world where all encounters are hand-placed and unique, then heavy lean on combat would be fine. But DD positions itself as an openworld rpg while lacking most of things that make openworld RPGs good.
Fighting samey respawning wolves is not really engaging when you do it for hundred of times.

Thank god you don't have to.

It shows that you started playing the game with an idea in your mind of something else and no one ever promised (or maybe you read it online idk) and then got inevitably disappointed when it wasn't that, and started comparing it with Gothic 2, for no other reason that you like that game better.

Then, instead of re-learning how to play a new game with a similar genre, you shit on it because it's not exactly like another one you already played

There's nothing to argue here.

Gothic 2 is just an example of a game with good itemization. Games with random chest content are never as good. It takes away all the feeling of exploration and reward when instead of a good staff you can find a fucking healing potion at the end of hard dungeon.

poor pc fats who played the beginning and thought it was fun are in for such a harsh surprise when they realize the entire game is back tracking over the same tiny strip of land fighting the same enemies in the same places using the same abilities to achieve the same mmo quests. this game is buyers remorse and wasted potential, more so then anything youve ever experienced. when i first started playing i nearly came during some of the fights due to how intense they seemed plus with the excellent sound track but you would be surprised how fast it gets old when you realize youve worn out everything the game has to offer after a few hours of playing. youl want to kill yourself when you know the wolves are going to spawn there because youve back tracked there 200 times but your pawns keep telling you wolves hunt in packs a minimum of 30 times per fight, and you know youl have to rinse and repeat a hundred times more

Bloodborne is an actual ARPG with smaller world full of little neat details with shortcuts and teleporting. Plus you're not limited by skill slots, you can use two incredibly detailed weapons at the same time plus hunter tools and other things.

DD is an openworld ARPG where enemy respawn constantly but ferrystones are sold in limited quantities. It makes backtracking hilariously boring and exploration too repetitive.

>>324017264
I agree that combat isn't the only kind of gameplay, but in its simplicity it's actually TW3's better part. At least the movement controls work pretty well in combat, while out of combat Geralt feels like a tank, making it very hard to really get immersed as the spell breaks every time you accidentally move past a corpse you were trying to loot.
The equipment and levelling systems are absolute shit, like you're playing a singleplayer MMO, and because they're so restrictive with the items you can equip it's literally impossible for any loot you find to be anything cool. In games like Morrowind you can actually find amazing magical heirlooms that enable you to do new things, which ends up being a memorable experience despite being unbalanced. In TW3 you never find anything but a sword with a few numbers a bit higher, and if they're too much higher you can't even equip it until hours later. It kills any fun that could be had while exploring.
I struggle to think of a single gameplay mechanic in TW3 that doesn't actively get in the way of my fun.

I really loved this game when it came out (original release and Dark Arisen update). Then Dragon Age: Inquisition came out and blew this game out of the water, doing nearly everything this game does but better. It's not content-rich as compared to DA:I and it's not immersive or difficuly enough compared to Dark Souls, so it's just kinda generic middle of the road.

You fucks know what trolling is?

4chan has always been plagued by people trying to get a rise out of others, some of them are fucking good at it too, they've had years of practice afterall.

The more something is loved and liked, the easier it is to upset people over it, what I think has been the main factor behind such /v/ epic shitstorms as Dragon Age 2, TORTANIC and Mass Effect 3. Also how Dark Souls community got so fucked up after PC release and why some people have shown concerns about DD maybe going the same way. If it does, it's almost always started by trolls, and from their the shitball that gets rolling is a bit more complicated.

dragon forging come's from as the name implies killing a dragon with it equipped. It's not guaranteed though except with Grigori. Each item is rolled separately upon killing it. The higher the item is upgraded as has a positive impact in it's chances of getting Dragon Forged. Rarification takes place in BBI and is similar to normal upgrades except I don't think you can skip stages like you can in the main game.
