Anyone seen any Shots on FLEMETH

9. Worried that the PS3-360 Version of Inquisition will be CRAP like previous other games such as Watch Dogs to other Multi-Platform Games usually Current Consoles are UN-PLAYABLE. Hopefully Inquisition on my PS3 will look good on my 50 Inch 1080p HD TV using an HDMI.

I'm sorry, but are you bragging about having a great TV in the same sentence as saying you aren't upgrading to current gen consoles? (PS4 isn't nextGen anymore, its the current gen, PS3 is 8 years old, it should've been replaced 3 years ago at least).

That just sounds kinda douche to me, as though you are literally looking for problems.

 

My worry isn't that prevgen will be unplayable, but that prevgen is holding back currentgen versions.

 

 

As to the answer to your questions: DAI on PS3 will look about as good as the best looking PS3 game (maybe a little worse since graphics isn't a primary focus, even with the upgrade to the new engine). Most games I've played, even prevgen exclusives, have had some clipping and frame rate issues on a PS3/360 since they are lagging so far behind, so I would fully expect the same issues in a game designed (hoepfully) for a more advanced system.

We don't even know if Hawke and the warden are even going to be in Inquisition so without that knowledge one can't even say they have important roles in Inquisition.

 

And as to the comments what happens in the far future with the Keep, I see no real reason to fret about it. There isn't going to be a final answer about that concern any time soon. I see it as fretting about the unknown or being worried about what happens if you lose your job. Certain things in life are beyond your control and if it happens it happens but it could very well not happen too.

 

And no, Inquisition will not start in the same way as Origins did. There will be no actual origins content for each of the races. However, your background seems to play a role in how NPCs will react to you throughout the game.

 

When the first lot of games that required online activation started coming out and people also said 'I see no point / reason in fretting about it' and the concerns fell on deaf ears....now many of those games can no longer be activated. There are games out there that are gone forever. Like the poor keeping of films from the early film industry - people are now ruing they didn't do more to preserve these things for the future.

 

Now is the time to fret about it so there is something in place or something in motion to make sure that it isn't something that is going to be lost because no-one bothered to see past their noses.

There are ways around that online activation. Hackers bypassed pretty much every games online activiation within months of them coming out, and those still exist. As for the Keep, I am assuming it uploads a file to DAI with the world status, and such a file could be simulated by a players virtual server. Extra: If the Keep is a success it will dobutless be used for DA4 and DA5, etc, as well, so it could be around and active for a very long time.

Which games can no longer be activated? And even if some games can no longer be activated It was a new technology bsck then. The cloud nor online activation could be called new any longer at this point.

I still believe this is just fretting about a what if scenario which is useless as long as Bioware is still creating DA games. The aren't creating the Keep to abandon it within one to two years. If you are worried about the Keep dissapearing create every world state you want at release and losd them into your game. I believe the worry to be odd in light of there already being online authentication as well. The Keep is an extension of it, just as cloud saves are.

If you need to turn to cracks and hacks to play any game in the future then it's a failing on the developers part. Especially since it's often those developers crying foul about people pirating the most.

 

I get that some people don't mind it - but if you don't mind it - why would you have a problem with someone who does mind it wanting alternatives in place?

 

In place for a while is not the same as for ever.

 

There is going to be a whole generation of gamers in 20 years time wanting to relieve their gaming memories and they'll be unable to do so because of current methodology of online and cloud driven gaming when it could so easily be done to provide alternatives that provide accessibility for future gamers for the rest of the eternity.

Why people always legitimately respond to this guys threads continues to amaze me. They are literally trolling through deliberate ignorance, having made similar threads multiple times. The amount of asinine questions being repeated (in multiple threads) leads me to believe OP has that mental condition from 50 first dates.

You realize if you try to play a game from 20 years ago it won't run on your PC? A few years ago I tried to play that top-down Jurassic Park game (I have the CD from long, long ago lol) and to get it to work I have to run a Virtual System and some other stuff. In 20 years games that didn't require DRM or online activation will work no better than games that do require online activation.

Many games from the past do not work on current PCs without running a virtual machine to stimulate a particular operating system. Some Windows based games do not even run in compatibility mode on Windows 7 Professional (Ultimate or Enterprise). Try running Warlords II deluxe on XP or above (just to name one example). Try running any DOS based games without DOSBox or an equivalent on XP and above. It does not have to require online activation or cloud driven gaming for a game not to run on modern hardware or future hardware. Master of Magic is offered by GOG. It is a 20 year old game. The only way GOG could get it to run on modern hardware was to bundle it with DOSBox. Many Dos and older Window based games do not play nice with the faster processors in PCs today. Hence programs to slow down the processor speed were necessary. The developers are going to develop for the newer hardware. Gamers want games that use newer engines with better graphics and physics. 

 

If someone wishes to relive their gaming memories 20 years from now someone like GOG will make it happen if there is enough demand. That is why there are emulators for many of the old 8-bit machines. The days of backward compatibility are being left behind because it holds back what can be done. 

 

Many games will fall by the wayside to be replaced by newer games. That is inevitable.
