It's still astonishing that X:R came out.

Egosoft is.. well was a dev studio that you could trust implicitly. Just blind "Lemme have whatever you got cause I know it'll be great" company to love.

I can't believe Rebirth. I really can't.

Persona 5 Take Your Heart Edition
Bioshock Infinite.Fuck you, I know. I was at least able to get XCOM and the first Bioshock for free.
>>
What's the actual reason to pre-order a video game in 2016?
>>
>>344718238
I haven't played X:R since it came out but I am aware that they have released a ton of free content updates, as well as some minor paid dlc as per their usual operating style.

They have apparently fixed a lot of what was BROKEN with the game which is nice, but the bugs were not the real issue. The real issue was the design flaws that won't be fixed.

I still just don't get how they misread their fans and market so badly. I can only accept it if the rumor that it was a xbox 360 game that got scrapped and turned into a PC game are true. That would explain pretty much everything, especially why there's only one ship and a very limited amount of sectors/factories/empire stuff
>>
>>344718821
There is none, unless you want some limited edition.
>>
>>344718838
YEah I remember hearing a theory about how it was a failed console port attempt that couldn't match the quality standards of microsoft. Not sure if that's true, are the quality control for games that stritch?
>>
Aren't they using Jewneuvo? I preordered the last game and loved it, but I using shit DRM really turns me off from getting the game.
>>
>>344718821
>>344719072
No reason at all. It's just a hold over from a bygone era that many of us grew up in where there really was limited availability and if you didn't pre order a game it WOULD sell out and they wouldn't get it back in stock for a month or maybe even more.
>>
>>344719227
How does Denuvo harm paying players?
>>
>>344718821
none whatsoever, there's hasn't been a need for pre-ordering since ps2 era.
>>
>>344719154
I've never heard microsoft and quality rumors. I think that's anachronistic. People saying stuff post launch about it.

The only real, definitive stuff that was found to support the "It was originally a console game" theory was xbox 360 audio drivers left in the game. I've heard people say the drivers can also be used for windows so there's really no silver bullet.

But pretty much everything about the game shouts "Slimmed down to meet the limited capacity of a console while still delivering a similar experience"

I don't think we'll ever know for sure. Egosoft isn't telling. All we know is their original publisher for X:R bailed on them and they switched mid development to their current. And the audio driver bit.

In the end it's a big fat fucking shame and I hope they recover enough through sales to make X4. And that's all it'd take. Just come out and say "Hey guys I know we fucked up hard and didn't remember what made our games unique but we're going to start fresh using the new engine and deliver as good of a game as X3:AP."

I'd be on that shit in a second. I'd even pre order it.
But they probably won't, and they're probably fucked.

>>344719554
The more you control access to the programs files the less it can be changed. Look at Doom for example. ID had to spend tons of resources making integrated modding support to keep denuvo from making the game un-moddable.
>>
>>344719725
But in Eidos Montreal Deus Ex case, the first one already lacked mod support, didn't it? I don't remember Human Revolution mods being a thing.
>>
>>344716696
ouch

>>344717825
For me i can get the cool statue. I also live in a low income house hold so help out with money a lot and this way i can slowly pay the game off. 20 here 30 there before i know its paid and i just wait for the release

Witcher 3

Going to pre-order Deus Ex
>>
I usually don't pre-order, but I have a bunch of free credit that expires and some shit I was going to pick up anyway, so fuck it.

>Pre-ordered DQ VII because of the $20 credit I received for ZTD's limited edition being borked at launch. Got it for like $12 bucks

>Had $10 credit + GCU at Best Buy, so I pre-ordered WoW: Legion for like $30.

>Have Pokemon Moon pre-ordered due to $5 credit + GCU.

>Have $30 in my steam wallet I got from a refund that I am going to use on Deus Ex when it launches.

>Have FFXV pre-ordered at BB due to GCU + $10 gift card. Was going to get it either way, so eh.

I also have a few other things that I have pre-ordered on Amazon that I might cancel if there is a better deal elsewhere or lack of interest/bad reviews. Granted, that is no-money down so it does not make too much of a difference until closer to launch.
>>
>>344716508
Dishonored 2. Before that Xcom2. No regrets
>>
>>344716508
Arkham Knight for PC,
and I didn't refund it.
>>
I just pre-ordered MD today too, OP. I finished Human Revolution this morning and I knew that I needed to do it. There's no way in hell that I'm not going to like it.
>>
>>344720405
I just hope I can run it at 60FPS
