QUOTE(Scar_face @ Sep 30 2014, 12:06 PM) However, whats the point of buying it now when my rig cant play at all? It just sit there as another backlog.QUOTE(limjenson @ Sep 30 2014, 12:07 PM) At the rate steam is increasing the prices, might as well go back to GMG all those other resellers eventually. They offer better discount. Sigh, I guess having regional pricing isnt that good anyway. Maybe should consider getting Endless Legend and Gal Civ 3 now.Now I only considering whether to get FM2015 first in case it gets a price increase too. Going to boycott other games. |

QUOTE(pikachu01 @ Sep 30 2014, 01:38 PM) Indie games are the way to go. Most of what I play are indie games or smaller game companies that don't screw people over from stupid regional pricing or underdeveloped games with exorbitant prices. Thats why i love Gal Civ and Endless Legends, they are still damn dirt cheap till now. |

QUOTE(pikachu01 @ Sep 30 2014, 02:04 PM) GalCiv III is definitely not cheap. Stardock is not considered an indiegame developer in terms of size. Endless Legends is considered cheap though, but wait for 75% lol. Gal Civ and Endless Legend is cheap. These are the games that you can easily get 40-50 hours out of it in one week or so while you always have good reasons to return in the future. There are not those typical 4-5 hours short scripted shooter then nothing to do after that.I aint gonna wait for 75% discount because both developers are pretty good in general. Amplitude is absolutely fantastic developer as I like their crowd source model. Stardock made some severe mistakes but that is forgivable as they did quite a lot to rectify their past mistakes. Stardock is established but by no means they are any larger than most indie teams. These are the developers that I can genuinely support them for their efforts while waiting for 75% discount is plain unfair for them. This post has been edited by Cheesenium: Sep 30 2014, 02:12 PM |

TB doesnt do review. He does first impression on his thoughts of the game after a few hours. He never really do proper reviews of a game.

What the hell? Buying GOTY comment separately is even more expensive than buying Australian version of GOTY.
2K, why you do this? |

QUOTE(sai86 @ Oct 1 2014, 04:26 PM) yeap. the game you state is OVER HYPE = Fail to deliver. but not in the case of SoM for me. I dont think Titanfall can be considered as fail to deliver, it was fun but lacked of content.i did not expect it to be so good, in terms of fun, gameplay and graphic. Watch Dogs might be a bit more towards failed to deliver especially on the visuals side. Destiny is probably a turd. Looks like a Borderlands with good gun play, more grind, minus story, unique artstyle and humor that Borderlands has. |

QUOTE(Rei7 @ Oct 1 2014, 04:47 PM) Destiny is great. Those who don't play it just don't know it or they play it alone, which isn't fun. No offence, you might like it but to me, Destiny is a really dull game. It has no story with extremely bland art style despite 4-5 years of development that feels like they just stand there and waste time. At the same time, trying to copy MMOs like WoW without its interesting mechanics where every WoW missions, bosses and raids have an interesting gimmick while destiny's content does not vary much from its template gameplay. At the same time, having massive gear grind with poor loot drops to artificially lengthen the game. Another thing is Peter Dinkage's poor performance in this game where even Troy Baker or Nolan North can do a much better job than that famed Game of Thrones actor. The story that talks briefly about Darkness, Light, Queen and all sorts of meaningless words just made the game felt lazy in terms of world building considering the story was heavily cut towards the end of development. Halo was great partly due to its world building and also the multiplayer but Destiny feels like it doesnt have much that made the Halo games great.Get a few friends from this forum, with mic chat and it's definitely a good game. The game is somehow addictive and I myself don't know why I keep playing it. Ask someone else who plays it and they will say the same. There is some grind but only stupid ppl will grind in loot cave, it takes forever, u can get good items in a short time anyway. The grind is so little that it took me only a week to go to the max level. It's not really grindy at all compared to other MMO. Story wise they don't have much into it, it's more of a story which you have to imagine yourself for the most part. It is a bit like borderlands when it comes to shooting but it's more like Halo which what makes the game awesome. There are plenty of things to do in Destiny compared to Titanfall. If Titanfall ever gets as much modes as Destiny, it would have been awesome for that franchise. Base on sales Destiny already beat Titanfall and Watch Dogs. Games is fun but not really a 8-10/10 rated for me. Anyone who likes FPS will definitely love Destiny. As TB said, watching paint dry with friends is fun too, which at the end, it does not excuse destiny not to offer any form of single player or a remotely enjoyable single player. Play alone or with friends is up to the players themselves as not everyone can have the time to get together all the time to play. Also, there are no facilities like a raid finder to get players together. At the end, it is just Borderlands with more grinds while Borderland's unique artstyle, story, universe enemies design and so on are all absent. I am absolutely zero interest in games that requires you to grind, grind and grind. This post has been edited by Cheesenium: Oct 1 2014, 05:12 PM |

QUOTE(Rei7 @ Oct 1 2014, 05:41 PM) Always like to criticize things before playing them. But whatever. Play first then only talk like you know the game. I actually followed the game a fair bit because i wanted to get a PS4 for it but the final game that actually comes out is just dull and a massive disappointment.The knowledge you have regarding this game is low that what you are saying is wrong in almost all the places. Raids are challenging, and it's not an easy game to play if you choose the hard modes which requires great team coordination and teamwork. They are multiple levels like hard mode which can one hit kill you and give good loots and gears. Gear grinds is not even a grind and poor loot drops have already been improve and rolling out already. Legendary engram will give legendary things and not lower and Bungie already compensate the loot drop by doing an event which is called the Queen's Wrath where you can easily get Legendaries gears and weapon in less than 30 minutes. This game is not about the story which everyone knows already if they read any reviews, it's about the gameplay which is fun. Destiny has it's Lore and it's a good one, it definitely lacks the story that Halo has, but Halo's story was copy paste anyway from the guy who direct the story of the 2nd Halo. Bungie isn't about story but more into the competitive and online aspect of the game. You can't compare FPS to something RPG. How the hell is it even the same? You still need to craft to upgrade weapons and explore and do other missions and bounties to make the game more fun. Destiny game kicks in at the end game anyway and they did it right at that part. With the loot rate already improving, I don't see there will be much problem with it now to casual gamers. Do not offer any form of single player is just wrong, you can play the game alone if you want. I see a lot of members here who plays the game alone and enjoys them. Destiny focus more on social aspects and online competitive games."Grind, grind and grind". That alone is enough to show how limited your knowledge is about the game. Loots are everywhere and frustration has become less after the tweak. Enemies designs are unique and has a universe of it's own, art style is amazing as well. When the day where people stop comparing other games and enjoy the game how the developers want the games to be, no one will be satisfied with anything. Destiny sales across all platform already is enough to say how good it is already. Story wise, yes not good at all, gameplay wise destiny is amazing, social wise great, loot wise already improve, and multiplayer competitive wise, it's the best since like forever, since the last awesome Halo 2 multiplayer was still alive. In the end just our opinions. So nobody real cares that much I am not a fan of doing raids all the time as if it is my second job while the game evidently say that, if you dont have friends, GFTO because Destiny will not implement raid finder or proximity chat like most MMOs. At the same time, the whole game is about grinds. Grind for level 30 by increasing your Light stats bit by bit or grind and grind for legendary weapons by playing through the same content again and again. There is no story or any interesting mechanics like various enemies of Borderlands 2 that has wildly different gimmick to fight them. Destiny actually had a story that was written and mostly developed but towards the end of the development, almost everything that resembles a story was cut for no reason. And putting all the interesting lore on Bungie.com is just unacceptable while various games like Mass Effect has implemented in-game codex. Maybe I am just sick of endless grinds and replaying the same content but to be honest, from what I had seen, I think a 6 out of 10 by Angry Joe and Polygon is well deserved for Destiny. It brings less innovation than Titanfall while it lacks of the rather interesting setting that Watch Dog has. The game might get better with time but at the moment, Destiny reminds me of how dull was Diablo 3 was at launch. This post has been edited by Cheesenium: Oct 1 2014, 06:09 PM |

GST is my main concern especially this will increase the price of literally everything including petrol. If GST isnt implemented properly, the impact will be devastating. I had paid 13% GST in a country where salary is high, I just cant imagine how painful will it be for a country that do not have reasonable pay with 6% GST.
I better buy all my electronics soon as most of my stuff are almost 5 years old by now. Better upgrade now before GST and eat grass in the mean time. This post has been edited by Cheesenium: Oct 2 2014, 12:19 AM |

QUOTE(diehard1979 @ Oct 2 2014, 12:37 AM) They keep saying with GST , thing will be cheaper, but so far from what I understand, there is no way to be cheaper. I dont think you understand the concept of GST.Let say I am retailer that selling product A currently for RM100 and my cost is RM90, I earn RM10 With GST, they say the price will be RM106 which increase a bit only but I think when petrol +6% gst which impact the transport fee and transport fee also got own 6%, then my shop rental + 6% gst , electricity +6% gst and so on. Then assume the product that I get from supplier still RM90(which mostly will never happen as they also got own cost increase such as rental, transport and electricity) When I sell RM106 to customer, actually I can't get profit RM10 anymore as my cost already increase so much and that RM6 is actually collected for government. It will make people got less money to spend in market. If I want to maintain profit RM10, I have to sell more than RM106 to customer. |
