As a player who bought Diablo 3 on the day it is release, let me tell you, It was a disaster

The game was unplayable for some time, suffering for lag spike, some error xxx etc. Do I forgot to mention Wizard skill exploit that enable player to finish highest difficulty in less than 3 days?

And diablo 3 story, was downright disappointing. That wannabe-liar-kid, that wannabe-general-goon, that whiny-fall-from-grace human angel, that chatterbox-annoying-lady diablo.

Mercenary? Useless, does it bring anything interesting to the game? No, is he/she helpful? No. Is he significant? No, none whatsoever

No skill level, no stat distribution (please don't bring paragon into this), what else now can Diablo 3 offer? Endless grinding without the need to choose or focus on skill; afterall everybody in the world will have the same skill, and mostly will follow similar rune build.

Item? Everyone should be the same

Diablo 3 with frequent hotfix?

Nothing surprising, its an online game, other game like Maplestory had frequent update too and its totally free-to-play (whether its pay-to-win is your decision, they didn't enforce it to you). You are not there when majority of the player complain in their forum, do you? When they supposedly 'fix' trivial thing and left many thing that require attention aside, the complain, the disappointment, you didn't see.

I don't complain much about game, heck, I even liked Dragon Age 2 story despite its lazy mechanics (guard immune to frost, mage immune to spirit in Nightmare, trash logic)

Oh I agree, I played at launch as well.  It was a worse launch than this, of that I'm sure.  It took months for that game to get to be any good.  However, Blizzard responded.  You could find blue posts from the Blizzard daily responding to issues and updating people on what problems were being fixed, apologies for their errors, Q&A sessions, quick fixes implemented as soon as possible.  

 

Yes the launch was a complete pile of crap, yes the game was a let down, but you can't say Blizzard just said "meh" and walked away.  Their response to the issues and manning up and fixing them asap was pretty amazing.  I'd wager even now that there isn't a 2+ week drought of no information or communication or fixes between the devs and the community.

I did not say Skyrim was bug free, please re-read my post. I said, it was in a better condition than DAI. I still think it was. KB&M settings in Skyrim is great for me, I can remap everything to my reach. Have you tried mapping extra mouse buttons on DAI?

 

its not so hard to do a fps controling pattern unlike party friendly controls. in the moment you needed more complex controls for the game you ended in the horrible inventory managment section.

constant crashes because of memory problems was pretty common too and they needed really long to fix this (but a community fix was available earlier)

[SnQQpy]

 

"Thank you all. I'm glad you liked it as much as we did."

 

   

[Merlanni]

I am a patient man, but this is getting silly.

 

One part is solved, I can now watch ingame cutscenes. Its the every five minute crash that make me misrable.

[Jackal19851111]

 

I guess you still need Keep to set initial world conditions, eh? I'm not sure if it can be cracked.

 

Btw I preordered TW3 already because cd projekt did not give me a reason to doubt their competence so far. Their games have issues too, but they patch them instead of relaxing on vacations.

 

Aye, which means online connection is essential, and if it's cut, can't start a new game with new world conditions. My country as developed as it is, is WAY behind when it comes to ISPs, and not only do our fast ISPs have download limits, but ISPs with unlimited internet maxes at around 2-3MB/s download speed, and the problem persists IMO because our first telecommunications company who once monopolised the market still own all the lines.

 

I didn't purchase any DLCs for ME2 because I needed to be online to play a single player game with DLCs, however in ME3 I was able to play offline so I was happy. DA:I's sly DRM scheme with Dragon Age keep is not as bad sure, but still an annoyance if my internet ever goes out. So far so good however - I just changed ISP recently anyway.

 

Regardless, TW3's NO-DRM stance should be applauded. Alright that's it... I'm preordering TW3, even though I won't be able to play it on release as I'll be busy as hell during that period.

[Glaso]

Nah, you don't have to import a world state actually, but you'll have several holes in the scenario.

[bEVEsthda]

Aye, waiting for the things to come... Patiently, calm, with a cup of tea maybe...

 

 

But honestly I'm more like this right now...

 

 

 

- Yep!  That's me, right now, on the top, alright.     (Which reminds me, I was going to check if it is possible to get hold of FortMason tea on internet. Haven't had it for ages.)

 

The thing is, it helps to have something else to play (as well as lots of work), Kerbal Space Program is one of my highpoints of fun ever on a PC, and it's not even in Beta yet.

[Jackal19851111]

Playing with the default world state? Nah, I wouldn't be able to start a new game like that - that'll just defeat the whole purpose of having played DAO and DA2.

 

It's alright though, the DRM could be worse. At least with around 4 or 5 characters saved with various world states I can play offline I guess and won't be annoyed if my internet goes down.

I questioned black and blue when the keep was announced and have continued to do so until now...

 

...why can't / couldn't the keep be part of the game itself. There is zero reason why it needs to be something outside of the game. This is still the biggest thing that shits me about Inquisition.

[Feckless]

Astonished that there's still no patch and no communication on these forums since ...before Thanksigivng? Look, they need to roll the patch out at the same time and the console approval takes forever? I get it. I think it's ridiculous, and it shafts PC players for no reason, but I understand it. 

 

This extended silence, on the other hand, is poor form. 

[Cornughon]

Just so you know, I'm playing DA2 now, and I cannot use directx11 because it causes invinsible textures leading to invinsible parts of characters bodies. I read at this forum that it was fixed some time ago, but the fix is not working with new gpu drivers.

I never had any (DX11) issues with DA2, it was surprisingly stable. Unlike DA:O, which crashed quite often. Ofcourse these issues are often system dependent but that was the case for me. And I played both on the same rig.

TW2 played great with Keyboard and mouse and like total garbage on the controller.

I disagree. AT LAUNCH The Witcher 2 didn't even have a mouse reverse option. Like people posting here complaining about not being able to play the game without a 'Walk'-key, or without a 'left+right click movement'-function, I am not able to play any game where moving the mouse forward translates to look up. Not really an issue for me, but even the Arrow keys or numeric pad keys couldn't be used for movement. And performance wasn't that great.

They were a lot faster than Bioware with fixing this though, I can grant them that: it took them 9 days since release. But still I had to wait 9 long days to be able to play this otherwise excellent game.

And secondly: They completely overhauled the combat controls when compared to The Witcher 1. It really took time to get used to them. Oh and you were no longer able to drink potions during combat, it has to be done beforehand (something which I still don't like). Oh and TW2 only had half of the playlength compared to the first part. Sure you can choose two completely different paths, but it came at the cost of gamelength.

I'm just saying: even CDPR doesn't do everything right on the first go. And TW3 is bound to have filler quests and other timesinks like crafting, since it's going to be open world-bigger-than-Skyrim after all.

Still looking forward to The Witcher 3 though, for sure!! :-D

For those who don't fully understand the ramifications of this, please let me paraphrase for you....

 

 

Someone, please, quote this and post Thursday's Twitter screen of Mark Darrah underneath.

If you do not have a Keep world state associated with your account, do you still get that "Import World State" prompt at character creation?

 

If not, then I would say that the Keep is, at some degree, integrated into the game.

 

Though I agree that a link to an ingame Keep tapestry selection off the Main Menu would make the most sense, IMO.

[Pen-N-Paper]

Still no communication about a patch, this is really crazy.

 

And all this game of the year bullshit really makes me angry ! This game don't deserve this in the current state it is outrageous.

 

 

Still no word on a patch?

[Brogan]

If you tried to play DA2 now with your current drivers, trust me, you would get variable missing textures in the game. 

[YohkoOhno]

 

Are you saying that I have no "credible" complaint here because I am not stuck with a flawed game I was manipulated into buying? Are you suggesting I should not have had returned the game - or otherwise incurred further expense (shipping/insurance/customs tax) to return the game? Are you saying the impressions gained from Let's Plays are invalid? Are you saying that watching a tsunami of poor suckers complain to deaf ears should not ENRAGE me?  Just how professional do you think I am?

 

And then you want to dox someone #gamergate. And what relevance does doxxing have to this conversation?   

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doxing I feel privileged to be elevated to the level of harrassment Felicia Day experienced. Were you behind that too?

 

Are you one of the same Bioware employees who were burnt and outed for leaving rave reviews on e-commerce sites like Amazon for DA2? You want to talk about relevant social manipulation, let's go. http://www.escapistm...Scandal-UPDATED

 

It seems to me that some people here could use a hired gun on their side for a change - rather than being against a team of Bioware marketing mercenaries under the banner of PR.

 

Well, let me deconstruct a few things here.

 

First of all, if you were so suspicious of Bioware's track record, why did you order the game on day one?  You obviously felt burned, so why go through the trouble of ordering a boxed copy and getting it sent internationally?  I would have waited for a few reviews.  Your profile here indicates that "Rather than looking forward to Inquisitiion, from an "RPG" franchise that's distanced itself ftom its Origins", so it tells me you were on the fence.  And you are returning it without testing yourself, or using Origin as a client which would allow you to try the game for a few days before getting a refund.  That seems rather masochistic.  It's like you ordered the game just to return it to the sender.

 

What I did was not "doxxing" by any means.  You pushed a Twitter tag named InquisitionRefund on Twitter.  You were encouraging people to look it up, and there was only one person tweeting that phrase, you.  And you put your LinkedIn on your twitter home page--I did nothing to hack you or harrass you or reveal any information you meant to keep secret.  Pointing out information YOU make public on a single link is not doxxing--and comparing me simply pointing out that you are a PR person via these links to what happened to Felicia Day is laughable.  

 

The only reason I pointed that out is to warn people I suspect you are engaging in hyperbole to use PR as a weapon because you dislike Bioware.  

 

See, I don't have a problem with people who are upset they can't play their game.  The fact that people are upset at the lack of communication here is acceptable.  It's weird that it's gone on this long.

 

The problem is this thread has kind of turned into a gripe thread about how the game was manufactured (such as the PC interface), and usually these threads tend to attract the "scorned fans", those that think Bioware has lost its way and are using any negative thing to produce a gripe about Bioware in general.  And I think some of your statements smack of hyperpole--do you think one returned box is going to affect the bottom line much?  Or tweeting to Ray saying "so sad what's happened to your company" and saying here you were upset that he decided to play the game on XBox?  I'm sorry, but I think much of what you are saying is not based on "emphasizing with the customers", but rather someone disappointed the games are no longer the way you like them, and more or less trying to get revenge because of it.

 

And to each his own, but at the same time, just be intellectually honest about it.  You don't like the game, but it seems like the majority of players do like it, and I think it will be a hit.  Let's not pretend that this game will be a bomb.

Hmmm, works fine for me, in fact i've been playing DA2 before DAI's release, never seen a texture bug.

Yeah, I meant the whole package and parcel.

It's not an elegant solution and rather if there was a menu option in the game that said 'Create World State' and you did it within the game, it would be much cleaner and make more sense.

 

That said, while there is a lot of nods and cameos, the world states have no real effect on the game beyond a bit of nostalgic deliciousness so it doesn't matter really anyway.

[Jackal19851111]

The nostalgic deliciousness for me is worth it! But that's just me.

[Brogan]

What gpu and driver version you using?

[Brogan]

indeed.

 

one of the primary reasons I am waiting to start.

[Bethgael]

to be fair, everyone preordering games is part of the problem, doesnt matter if he is satisfied or not. and when 70$ is so much money for you, do your research before buying the game.

To be fair, "doing your research" before buying a game involves watching twitch streams, reading reviews, seeing what the devs had to say., past iterations of the franchise, etc.

In this case, all the research in the world would have not helped, not when the customer base was clearly misled about the PC version.

[Brogan]

"Do your research"???

 

What an amazingly ignorant comment considering the state things are in right now.

[Glaso]

What gpu and driver version you using?

 

R9 280X, right now the latest catalyst beta driver "optimized" for DAI, before the beta driver it was another beta driver Also worked fine on my old rig with a radeon 6870. The only time i had texture problems was when i tried to change Merril's face with a mod.

[Jackal19851111]

Heh, for me "doing research"  includes -> Research post-launch impressions of gamers on your platform prior to buying the game.

Though that's normally for companies I don't trust...

 

Never thought a company I supported for so long would give me the finger.
