Am I too late to the game? I feel late to the game :( https://v1.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/mercurysteam If it's still happening I don't mind the wait :P

I remember seeing trailers for it way back in 2017 when It was supposed to be out within the year. Glad I never followed it too closely, seem like those who were expecting a great game were in for an immense let down.

More likely you'll see Ryzen APUs in laptops, maybe something like the Ryzen 5 2400G, which when configured properly can give you decent Ryzen 5 performance with the graphics performance close to something like a 2GB RX 560. The real portable powerhouses are what's inside the Intel Hades Canyon...

I'd like to see a revitalisation of the website as much as anyone but what I can't fathom is how The Escapist was allowed to regress into this state. Kudos for Yahtzee for still pulling his weight but I can't believe that a place that hosted the likes of Jim Sterling, Extra Credits...

Nice to see so much of the old guard alive and well. It's a shame that the state of The Escapist has come to this but I suppose we've been headed here for awhile. Just want to say that many of you kept me preoccupied with interesting discussion in my younger (and somewhat lonelier) years. It's...

It's always been my belief people come for the content and stay for the forums. Content has been sorely lacking for what feels like the last year and is possibly the primary reason even I am reduced to a lurker rather than a daily visitor. I'm not saying The Escapist is FUBAR but it's been...

Never received the 'Mixed Signals' quest on my first run however, combat focus + shotgun to the face usually solved the issue quick enough though.

Fable II was a terrible game and Fable III was only slightly better due to its strong third act. Seriously, play Fable: TLC then after forget that any other games in the series exist and you'll be doing yourself a favour. As a recently proud owner of a PS4 I can safely say it's an incredibly...

Was literally thinking the same thing recently, was still a fanatstic soundtrack but I feel Awesome Mix Vol. 1 was more iconic plus I loved every single track on that one. Vol. 2 is slowly growing on me but there's one I'm finding very catchy:

Seek and you shall find: Go to 9:00, it's on a body in the vent near the door to the elevator in life support.

Surprising to see such common sense coming from a senator in the current government. And he is sadly correct that the people making these laws have virtually no clue about the medium they write laws for and I'd be surprised if any of them actually played games. It is refreshing to see that this...

Surprised to see high-end almost 3 billion in front of mid-range. Guess people are being less tight arses or perhaps its just people going straight for enthusiast hardware and ignoring mid range. Either way its nice to see the industry doing so well.

Still bullshit that the preorder bonuses were single use only. Making Square-Enix reside somewhere near Ubisoft level greedyness. Basically the whole preorder system for this game showed how not to do it.

Not everyone on this forum seems to realise that desktop and laptop components are very different, some laptop i5s aren't quad cores while all desktop ones are, and you'll find manufacturers (Lenovo is one of them) that will pair an i7 with a weak sauce GPU. Strictly speaking unless you need...

The odds of both pairs of speakers being faulty are quite unlikely, couple with the fact that neither your USB headset which gets its audio from the USB header and your monitor speakers which I assume get the audio from your GPU over HDMI have the same issue, then it's fairly safe to say your on...
