    Why does Doom Eternal suck?

    Same for me. The game is beautiful but I really didn't like the level design. I'm hoping they'll turn down the wall climbing/air jumping in the DLC's.

    DOOM Eternal - Official

    Kind of feeling the same way. I loved Doom 2016 but for some reason I still can't get excited enough for this one. Level design seems different, story seems much more pronounced and it just feels they're trying too hard to make everything "cool." I hope I'm wrong but I wait for the reactions first.

    Diablo IV Announced

    Entirely agree. I had forgotten about the "butterfly" boss, thinking about her and the role she had in the story immediately makes me frustrated again. There were many opportunities for a good story, but they kept ruining it with bad plottwists and cheesy dialogue. One of the things that...

    America and Canada Ground All Boeing 737 MAX Planes

    I'm glad they grounded these planes. You should never, ever gamble with the lives of pilots, passengers and the people on the ground.

    Dutch Cyclists Face Mobile Phone Ban

    I'm from the Netherlands and personally I feel it's a good law. If you really need to use a phone, just stop and go to the side of the street or something. As for people saying it's their own fault if they get into an accident because they're using a phone; what about the people affected by...

    #QuakeCon2018 Keynote with DOOM Eternal Gameplay Reveal

    I can't believe there are people complaining on Youtube that this is more of the same. WTF? The majority of fans wanted more of DOOM, not for ID to reinvent the entire game. And this is exactly what they deliver: More awesome DOOM action, but bigger, better, smoother and even more amazing...

    Unreal is 20 Years Old

    Thanks for the link. It's a great patch, but I always preferred the 3d9 or OpenGL version from OldUnreal. https://www.oldunreal.com/oldunrealpatches.html For some reason the colors are less vibrant on the 3d10 version but that may just be because of my computer, I'm not sure.

    Unreal is 20 Years Old

    If you have Unreal Gold and want to try a higher resolution, you can find the patches (unreal227i) on this Unreal fansite. https://www.oldunreal.com/oldunrealpatches.html This patch will allow any resolution and really improves the visuals of Unreal. It allows for a more modern renderer (3D9 or...

    CD Projekt Red Responds to Loot Box Controversy

    Exavior If game developers follow your reasoning a game would never be released because they would be working so long on the story they would never get it finished. Witcher 3 had a complete story in the base game. If they had added both expansions to it, it would have taken another year or so...

    Review the game you finished recently.

    I just finished the campaign of Sacrifice. A real-time strategy game made by Shiny Entertainment and released in 2000. Players control wizards who can summon creatures, cast spells, sacrifice souls to their god, and eventually have to desecrate their enemy's altar. (Main base) There are five...

    Google to Derank Russian Media Sites

    Don't talk to me like i'm a little kid who doesn't know anything. For years I'm following the news from different sources like CNN, BBC, Fox, RT.com, Sputnik, Al-Jazeera, Chinadaily/Xinhua, PressTv, etc. I've looked at information myself, especially about MH17 (of which we still don't know who...

    I'm glad you're able to keep an open mind. I did the same as you for years. But I gave up about a year ago after years of wasted and bitter discussions. Those discussions always ended with me being accused of being a "western lapdog," a Merkel fanboy, a Muslim and immigrant lover, being blind to...

    Delicieuxz No person would go to so much trouble digging up links and graphs to prove something without having something to gain from it. Overloading your posts with "proof" no one has even asked for shows you have an agenda. I see people like you everywhere on the net, luckily you and your...

    World of Warcraft’s new expansion is Battle for Azeroth

    It was a great move from Blizzard going back to their roots. Wherever there are discussions or comments, people are already taking sides. I'm not a Wow player anymore (can't invest the time to keep up) but I have to say both Sylvanas and Anduin were awesome, and I loved how they inspired their...

    Anyone Getting Their DOOM On?

    I feel the same way. I had a lot of fun with this game, and I'll certainly replay some of the levels, but the last few hours started to feel like a drag as well. I think it started around Titan's Realm. One arena after another. I loved the Crucible level after that one though, but the rest of...

    Doom 4 E3 reveal.

    Finished the game. Had quite a number of random CTD's during the second half of the game, didn't matter if I ran it on low or high. I certainly had fun with the game but the second half really began to feel repetitive and drawn out. It was just one arena after another, you could just predict...

    DOOM Doomed?

    I seem to have the CTD issue as well. Only started in the second half of the game. Doesn't matter if I'm running on High or Low, it randomly crashes to the desktop without warning. The game is beautiful and fun, but I find it getting repetitive in the second half where it really does begin to...

    Doom 4 E3 reveal.

    I have a I5-4590/GTX 760. You're processor doesn't meet the minimum requirements but I'm pretty sure it should work. Seen people playing beta with it, although it will be a bit slower) My experience so far: I've been trying to squeeze as much out of the card as possible. I'm running at...

    Anyone Getting Their DOOM On?

    Really enjoying the game so far, although I'm playing it in small steps. I only have a 760 GTX so I had to make some sacrifices. I'm impressed how efficient and smooth the engine is even with lower framerates. After some testing I was able to keep lighting on Ultra and the rest on High/Medium...

    Doom 4 E3 reveal.

    Really enjoying the game so far, although I'm playing it in small steps. After some testing I was able to keep lighting on Ultra and the rest on High/Medium. There seems to be a subtle difference between High and Ultra lighting in the sense the latter feels more vivid and has more contrast. I...

    Doom 4 E3 reveal.

    Beautiful game. I was on the fence because I only have a 760 GTX. But with a mixture of high and medium (I forced myself never to use anti-aliasing in games as I can't afford higher-end cards) it runs smooth so far. I haven't played FPS games in awhile and it shows. Even the first section with...

    Doom 4 E3 reveal.

    I really want to like this game, but for some reason, even after watching those gameplay video's, I'm still not entirely convinced. It feels a bit too bright and colorful. Doom 3 was too dark and had its shortcomings (Although I really enjoyed it) but it did make excellent use of shadows. Doom 4...

    Windows 10 64-Bit Dethrones Windows 7 64-bit On Steam

    Although not on-topic, I'm becoming incredibly frustrated with Microsoft's desperate attempts in forcing Windows users to upgrade. Those reminders are becoming almost daily now, they even had the nerve including one that mentioned (while I was working) my computer would restart in a few minutes...

    Starcraft 2 launched today and nobody cares?

    It's funny in a way that after I spoiled the ending for I find myself interested in playing the rest of the campaign again. I guess it's because I don't have to adjust or set my expectations anymore and can now entirely focus on the content. It's definitely an enjoyable and very polished...

    Starcraft 2 launched today and nobody cares?

    I played the campiagn until around 70-80%% I think. Then for some reason I just lost interest. The game feeds you so much info and conversations that at a certain point I felt it became too much. But the main reason was the storyline, the missions and the direction it was taking in the second...

    Finally completed the Helltooth set for Witch Doctor today. It's funny how you get the first five pieces within a few days, but then are farming/crafting/using Bloodshards for almost two weeks in order to get the final piece. (In my case the boots) I'm very glad I got it though, it was...

    Thank you both for the replies. I appreciate it. I really should have checked if that portal was still around, I was too surprised at the time to consider that option. A Puzzle Ring? Wow, I had no idea. Of course I disenchanted one only a few days ago. But I'll definitely keep a look out for...

    Diablo 3 Discussion Thread

    I'm such an idiot. Was doing a rift when a portal ot the treasure realm opened from a Goblin. I went inside (amazing level design, by the way) and faced Greed at the end. I actually became nervous and what did I do? Just when she's about to charge I move directly into her path. GG. As far as I...

    Got my first Ancient legendary yesterday. (Deviltongue) I had no idea there was that much of a difference regarding stats, it gave quite a boost. I also got an improved Helltooth set piece from Kadala. These two items finally made me able to resist against Mortar and Arcane Beams on Torment 6 as...

    AMD, Roy Taylor, the Nano, and the Press @ [H]

    AMD only seems to dig a bigger hole for themselves. Honestly, at this point they don't need Nvidia/Intel to put them out of business. Many people are now talking about Roy, fair reviews and not giving samples to review sites instead of the product itself. And usually this kind of talk creates...

    Out of 680 shards, Kadala dropped three set pieces for my WD. Two were from Zunimassa's set and were exactly what I was looking for. (Mojo and boots) It allowed me to move up to T6 rifts. I die occasionally but the difference in drop rate is amazing.

    Diablo 3 Discussion Thread

    Thank you for your detailed reply. I appreciate it. :) It seems the game has made the decision for me. I got a Helltooth and Jade set piece from Kadala. I can't use the Helltooth shoulder yet as it is a bit of a downgrade on its own, but if/when I can get a second piece I'll definitely try it...

    Started playing again with the start of the fourth season. Man, things have changed a lot. The game feels much more enjoyable now. I'm using Dark3D (darker/grittier) though as I just can't get used of the cartoony graphics. Started a Witch Doctor in season 4, and it's the most fun class I've...

    Five Nights At Freddy's Developer Responds To "Hate"

    I see your point, but I thought our praents probably felt something along the same lines. My parents sometimes frowned at the games i played as well, even if I told them it was a game that made you think or had a rich backstory. It often came down to "you're just punching buttons, what's the...

    Five Nights at Freddy's 4 release on August 8th.

    I felt the same way about the second's game difficulty. Took me quite some time before I finished night 6. But I had hours of fun with the Customizable A.I. and challenges afterwards. My personal issue with the third game was (besides lacking a customizable AI) that the jumpscares had become...

    Five Nights at Freddy's 4 release on August 8th.

    A trailer for this game was released a few days ago. This will be the fourth Five Nights at Freddy's game in exactly one year. FNaF 1 was officially released August 8th 2014. Personally I felt disappointed with the third game (didn't feel like a FNaF game anymore) but I have to admit I'm...

    Portal stories: Mel (Free mod for Portal 2)

    Finished this game last night. Took me around 15 hours total. This game is difficult, you really need to have experience with the mechanics of Portal 2 and even then it's a step up from the puzzles in the original game. But the puzzles are very well made, and none feel impossible, but some...
