    Mass Effect: Andromeda

    That free dlc was the best side quest in mass effect 1 - what was it called - bring down the sky. That was just about the only planetary side quest that i enjoyed. Now if they had done all of them like that it would have been a great game.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda

    I didn't think andromeda was a bad game but my problem with ea/bioware formulae is that it has a huge amount of 'busy' work; when you compare this to better games like witcher 3 or larian last 3 games they pale. Esp witcher 3 had so many side quests with a lot of meat. larian games tend to be...

    Why do the living ship quest other than to say you did it? I mean does it give you something super neat beyond the graphics ?

    Played jade empire years ago and enjoyed it - never go tinto swotor 1 (tried it 3 times and made it to a couple of planets); never tried swokotor ii. Did enjoy the divine divinity series 2 was best but dos:2 is a near 2nd with dos:1 having its own charm but very different. dd was really good...

    I couldn't get into 1; 2 was pretty good; never got into planescape though try it twice and icewindale 1/2 (which i played before bg) was great. My sister gave me a bunch of games she had played around 2003 including those 5 games; i played icewindale 1/2 then some might and magic then bg 1...

    Which ones have the best or at least good keyboard/mouse control - i.e, no game pad.

    The problem with comments like these on 'str' of classes; is you need to include the difficulty you played on as this can change drastically on different difficulties.

    They will probably add more content to act 3 if they follow their normal patching sequence for the last two divinity games.

    I really should play this game - i mean i started a game and loved it but then they kept updating it and i'm 'fraid to start a new game cause they keep doing major updates....

    Question Is 4070 (non ti) a good option for 1440p gaming?

    7900 and 4070 ti really aren't options due to power consumption. I personally think it comes down to 6950 or 4070.

    Question Is 4070 (non ti) a good option for 1440p gaming?

    Using partpicker the current lowest 4070 ti is $789 (~800); the current lowest 4070 is $599.99 (~600) so $200.

    If you have very specific suggestions on how to improve the menu and can somehow express them in a fashion that someone at Larian actually reads them and comprehend them they are a company always willing to improve things (though it might take 3 or 6 or 12 months given the level of noise to read).

    Question Is 4070 (non ti) a good option for 1440p gaming?

    The quick search i did said the 3080 used around 304 watts vs the 4070 190 watts. I suppose this is 50% more for the same performance but will also put the sfx psu near the limit of what it can happen. I would think the additional headroom provided by the 4070 would be advantages in my case...

    You sound like Fox news; you cherry pick the reviews to support your perspective but you do not give an even random sample of reviews. This is called bias reporting. Only very evil people do this sort of thing. I.e, trolls.

    Yea - it really had some very fine moments. I'd love to see them keep the basic story but redo the game in D:OS engine and flush out some of the elements the publisher made them cut.

    Well Dragon commander would have been better if they had actually supported it - but they dropped it like a hot rock and never looked back. Swen spoke several times how they thought Dragon Commander approach would be the real winner and D:OS-1 was just a diversion. He really got that one wrong.

    Baldurs Gate 3 - Official Discussion Thread (2019)

    To be honest it appears to be a massive success both in terms of user experience and sale # but all Swen talks about is how burned out they are and the desire that their next game be a lot smaller in scope ;) - I would not be shocked if all 400 people who worked on the game make more than 500K each.

    Not a good list because critic view will drift from user review. As an example resident evil which is #4 pc game is 91 critic and 70 user but bg3 which is 97 critic is only 9.3 user ;)

    Can the other characters buff like the barbarian?

    If i'm not mistaken they use akamai for downloads so they don't really 'provision' servers.... akamai handles a very large % of the internet traffic and bg 3 is a tiny % of the internet traffic.

    Question Is 4070 (non ti) a good option for 1440p gaming?

    Yea i did some more reading and i think it comes down to the 6950xt or 4070 with the 4070 having a power advantage. So I think i'll just watch those two for pricing between now and black friday and maybe i can nap one for $550 that will fit in my case. I really like the 4070 power form factor.

    Ok. I might wait for How much was it during the prime sale? Just triying to get a price point - i suppose i should check part picker. I might wait till blackfriday/cyber monday but i think i'd like to get it sooner as i actually have one of those short 1070 with the vram issue that was fixed...

    Question Is 4070 (non ti) a good option for 1440p gaming?

    Should i go with thne 4070 ti or 4070 ? they both have the same amount of vram but the 4070 ti is about $200 more - i think both will fit in my case and fall under sfx750 psu i have.
