Saying it works better with a gamepad it's a pretty bold statement. What exactly is easier to execute or more accurate? Game uses standard wasd + mlook (without wierd acceleration on camera when you turn like assassin's creed) which makes k+m combo as good as it gets.

Too bad MLG doesn't keep a CS tournament, so you see the farce that competitive cod and halo on consoles are near a proper shooter. If you didn't play organized 5v5 in CS refrain from commenting on it. It's the equivalent of SC for team based shooters, there's nothing that even comes close to it.

Though choice for a game designer: "some reviewers or people on the internet will complain the spell names aren't obvious" versus "try to capture as much from the universe described in the books as possible". Or in other words: "please some useless whiny *****" versus "respect the lore". Such...

He did complain about the real weak point of the game: it's not idiot proof so Yahtzee can't enjoy it. A flaw like that is obviously a show stopper. And btw, accusing others of being elitists and then providing ample examples of how incompetent you are tends to backfire.

No, it's not about praising the features of the game. It's about covering them in the review. He ignores important features like how your choices alter the game even in minor details not only the big fork and has one liners that apparently should cover story, atmosphere, artistic value and level...

That's just nonsense. A review should cover all aspects exactly because it should relate to every reader. And sure as hell he shouldn't be filtering out important aspects of the game because he ASSUMES majority won't care about. Offtopic DA2 rant: Except it wasn't advertised as a Diablo...

Especially in BG2 and in DA:O which uses the exact same type of limited level scaling you could have gone different routes which totally reversed your difficulty curve. And in ALL of their games, regardless if you had the previous problem or not, when your build was starting to flesh out the...

How can the game be easier/harder if you chose wrong quest order and have constant difficulty curve at the same time? If you do it in "wrong" order you break the limited level scaling and game gets easier in later parts. On top of it all of their games "break" if you do proper builds and at...

That's exactly what makes Witcher 2 so impressive visually so your "BUUUUUUT" got it all wrong.

For me prologue wasn't hard compared to later chapters. It just had very few "trash" encounters and the mechanics were new. And the hardest encounter in the game was towards the very end for me. Also, one thing this tutorial accomplishes is teach you how the fighting works in most scenarios...

For you, not everyone has to share your experience, shocking as it might be. I struggled a bit taking on Aryan La Valette and his crew, while I had no issue with the dragon. Handling a bunch of endregas and some elves in the forest at night in act 1 or the quest where you fight 3 wraths at...

Oh boy, I didn't even see this one. Way too funny. Those are engine limitations and funny enough are the exact same in Aurora the engine used in TW1.Guess what, Aurora is a PC only engine made by Bioware and was mainly designed for a 3D game with top down camera. You can basically blame...

No you don't and the game doesn't block the story, it closes aspects of it. It even gets explained in the journal how the events unfold and why you ruined the bard's tale. If you have some preformed opinions on how a game like this should be designed doesn't mean anything that doesn't adhere...

If Bioware wouldn't try so hard to make a big deal of their romance options and politically correct sex we wouldn't have this kind of pointless discussions. I bet they never understood that the cool thing about "romances" in older games was that they functioned more like easter eggs and not as...

Or you let your companions go in front, notice the dragon on the left when it stops breathing and do it in 2-3 tries randomly pressing M1/M2. Which makes it a lot easier than most of the game as far as combat is concerned. But ofc, when you are followed by 3 npcs all armed, letting them lead...
