Fine but if voke provokes me again by calling me a fucking racist, ill go medieval on his/her/their ass. Im not having it. It really bothers me people will stoop so low. So calling voke a moron was being mild. I did mean the cactus part though.

But ill keep it clean from hence forth.

I'm not calling you a racist at all. I just view you as one of the people that steer gaming discussion in the wrong direction. Trust me when I saw I am not in the DEI crowd that you say you hate.

Also where was I offended at? It would taker a lot more than this to find offense on my side.... not like I genuinely care anyway as I stated earlier I'm not bigot racist' finger pointer, SJWs such as irk me plenty as well. But it is easy for me to narrow this down into a couple of topics that anti woke people obessively talk about time and time again.

I mean you do you, but I don't think we're watching the same footage.
i take it back. i saw some cutscenes and felt dizzy out of the cringe i witnessed. its insufferable writing and mentality. a return to form. shame the game at times looks too good. but still im gonna wait till the journos and public opinion do its thing now that the game is out. its just...who the hell writes characters so one dimensional like that and miss the point. but oh well...

I had 0 issues during my playthrough with my RTX 4080 with all max and RT Ultra. Something is definitely wrong there.

Does EA still have their own launcher for PC? I’d guess about 750k sold for launch… just today tho. Maybe Saturday will give us something better to analyze before players beat it.

Predicting single player games is …. Not easy. You cannot use baldur’s gate as a point of comparison tbh. Too huge of a game and time sink comparatively.

Inquisition did huge numbers. It should do well — how well who knows.

wouldn't surprise me. Asmongold is a fucking idiot and he calls himself a knowledgable guy.
The game stutters, someone in chat says "enable frame generation" and he goes "Great idea".
The fucking morons don't know how any of this works and what it is.
Frame gen will double the stutters. It's pure logic but they think frame gen is magic that makes your game just run better

I mean Asmongold has played WoW for the vast majority of his gaming time, a game from 2004.
If it ain't a WoW addon, he probably has no idea how it works :ROFLMAO:

It depends on how well FG is implemented. In some games, it works perfectly even in 60hz displays (like Alan Wake 2, Cyberpunk 2077), in others, vectors are completely out of place and/or it feels like playing at 30 FPS. I doubt he has a 60hz display though.

Played about five hours of The Veilguard and thus far, it's great. The combat is a little more weighty and heavier than I was expecting it to be but overall, it's really good. Environments and visuals overall look great. Story and characters thus far is excellent. The writing and dialogue has been really good five hours in. Love all the customizable options with the HUD and difficulty levels. If anything, im guessing the "bad" dialogue is probably connected to that one character and part of that character's quest line and if that ends up being all of it, this will be a total of five minutes out of 50+ hours so it's not even going to change or affect anything.

Apparently Steam erases all reviews that returned the game.

Which is nothing short of idiotic. If I return the game because I hated playing it, why should my opinion of it matter less?
EA must keep my money if I want to say the game is bad?

It's literally hush money.

That's not true. When you refund a game, your review is flagged as "Product refunded." Here's a screenshot from the DA Veilguard Steam page from today:

I'm seeing people in the steam discussions complaining about disappearing reviews after refunding.
