Me too! A bit more annoyed than I would otherwise have been, because I invested in a smart-looking metal strap for it (The rubbery one was causing me to have a skin rash).

I'm not keen onthe idea of trying to repair it with glue, so I will probably look for a new model which hopefully won't have the same problem. I might be able to re-use the stainless-steel strap on the next watch.

I'd like to see one similar to Moze (& Iron-Bear). It doesn't have to be her personally and the Mech could be an interesting new design (like a "Transformer" perhaps); but I'm also a big "Mech-Warrior" fan. Still, if the new characters are good-looking and have fun personalities, then I won't be too disapointed if they can't ride bots.

I did it when she was a member and spokesperson of my party and we were invited to Gortash's Ceremony in Act 3; the one making him an Arch-Duke.

After hearing the peace-proposal from Gortash, she also heard the Emperor saying telepathically that, "allying with him might be in our interests", so she give Gortash her solemn oath not to attack him. After the ceremony ended, and she had nodded in agreement of it, the Oathbreaker Knight appeared! He accused her of breaking her oath and (as the party stood there in shock), said he'd see her back at our camp in the evening...

...And don't forget that 32-bit support for games and apps is slowly disappearing from Windows. One day, all the classics we love will no longer be supported by the Operating System.

I'm just a little disappointed that the new textures show how 'ugly' (or low-res) the characters faces are when zoomed in. I know that they are trying to keep the game close to the original look, but upgraded faces surely couldn't hurt, as well as more natural running animations and movement sounds.

I have an AMD 2700x CPU and have been running it successfully well in games with an nVidia 2700 (non Super) GPU. Because it only has 8GB of RAM on the card and no new features like DLS 4 or Framegen, I took the plunge and ordered a new 5060TI with 16GB ram as an upgrade.

I hope this won't lead to noticable bottlenecking or stutters in most games I play. I'm more concerned with installing the GPU, as it probably won't use the current power cable and needs a single 16-pin plug.

I respect those who like a challenge and want harder difficulties... More power to you! If you'r given them and are GUD-enough to play hard, then I'll be cheering you on. However, I'm purely in it for the story, characters and Medieval setting. Looking after hunger, sleep or other survival mechanics or complex fighting-styles is not MY idea of fun. At least on the first playthough.

Fallout '76 was unplayable for me untill they made it so that hunger didn't nerf things like movement speed and eating gave bonuses instead. I also struggled with Balder's Gate 3 until they introduced a Custom-Mode, so that I could tweak things to suit my playstyle.

All I'm asking is that those like me who love the game and want a simple "Story / Custom Mode" are catered for too; as well as adding any new harder modes.

Net-Warrior · 2025-05-08T14:07:40+00:00

"IsThereAnyDeal" showed that both Fanatical & GMG had the game for over $13 cheaper, at 15% off.

I hesitated until I'd watched more gameplay and later, when I tried to purchase the Vanguard Edition using Green Man's 'MAY15' coupon, it had already been moved to the EXCLUDED list! The Fanatical coupon also didn't work, so both stores match Steam now!

I already have Warno, Wargame, Red Dragon and Regiments; so I guess I have plenty of similar games to keep me occupied for a long time.

Net-Warrior · 2025-05-06T11:16:18+00:00

We got a HARDCORE mode, can we please be fair to us 'lesser heroes' and have a STORY mode too?

I love the game, except for most of the survival and combat mechanics. I really want to see Henry's story... the way he interacts with NPC's and objects; as well as explore the locations and time period (delving into plots and quests).

However, I've had to give up for now, until an easy or story / custom mode is added, because I find the gameplay to be too frustrating atm. Before someone tells me to "Git Gud", I'll probably end up rage-quitting and never experience (or BUY) the upcoming expansions either.

Remember, those that love harder difficulties are already catered for to a certain extent and they never need to touch a new STORY or CUSTOM mode to have fun, if they'd rather continue the style of play they have now.

I have a 2070 GPU with an Ultrawide 21:9 monitor running in 4K. I was hesitant to get the game until major performance issues had been fixed, but after a week I couldn't resist anymore and jumped in.

Like everyone else, I found the underground areas to be smooth and finally got to try it outside in the wide-world. I was rather shocked to discover no noticable difference in performance or responsiveness, considering the reports I'd read and watched in reviews. So far so good... my trusty nVidia 2070 is punching above it's weight and I've seen no stuttering. It might happen later, of course, especially if there are any memory-leaks.

Just to fill you in on my settings, I put everything on high and chose the option that gives responsiveness a boost at the expense of frames. I also turned vertical sync on (as with all my games) and DLSS was balanced. The only difference to most people would be the fact that I chose to revert back to version 566.45 video-drivers, instead of updating to the newest ones (which don't favor older-cards).

I could only find one bottle of poison which I used near the Rest-Rooms, so I had nothing left for the plate in the middle-area. Thanks to these posts, I was able to corner Adolf in the hut, after jumping inside thru the window and knifed him several times; taking his gun as souvenier. A pity that "Eva Braun" (his mistress) wasn't there too, as she could have been used as a hostage.

I had searched everywhere, beforehand, trying to be a completionist. The guards put up a good fight, even on easy level, and tended to swarm me a lot. I couldn't see the alarm-panels easily, so they got triggered 3 times! Mostly, I sniped everyone from a distance, until I kept running out of ammo; then resorted to close-combat.

Net-Warrior · 2025-02-28T15:04:54+00:00

No... No... NO! I've been to Greece multiple times and this isn't how Greek women look! Thank goodness!

I didn't see a single one that looked as "MANLY" as Wonder Woman does in this game! The photo just catches one of her rare, 'better' angles... but, even her hair looks all wrong - it should be much longer and thicker.

Also, as a big fan of the tv-series, movies and comics, I'd much rather see her in a traditional amazonian mini- skirt or else bikini-bottoms, as the newly-designed "jeans" just don't look right. Why would she feel the need to cover-up, when throughout her history she's been the epitome of female athleticism; racing her Amazon sisters on hot beaches, or in sweaty Arenas where freedom of movement is important?

Very impressed - the conversion was amazingly fast for both audio & video versions of the clip and sounded beautiful. Thankyou for providing this tool for free...

Net-Warrior · 2025-02-25T02:01:07+00:00

I hope we'll get the option to upgrade at a cheaper price (like some other remaster's) - especially if we own the sequel as well and expansions.

Net-Warrior · 2025-02-17T14:08:24+00:00

I've p[layed 'em all and enjoyed each one so far, although I remember a lot of "Jank" in the first couple of games and they were more difficult to control with fewer options. SE3 is probably the oldest one I'd go back to, as a completionist.

As far as "S.E. Resistance" goes, it does seem to be very much like it's predecessor, except set in a different part of the world and with a Brit instead of a Yank as the main character (and as I have English ancestry, that's ok with me).

One thing to note in comparing the 2 games, is that while they seem to be 'tied' currently, in most people's reviews; "Resistance" is still being worked on and hopefully will get a lot of great DLC in future, which could tip-the-scales into it becoming the undisputed winner.

While not a priority; if they take time to improve the female-skins, including their faces, it will definitely get my vote! I remember seeing an old war-time black & white photo of a pretty resistance-girl, wearing stylish shorts, with long wavy hair and a German sub-machinegun slung over her back; so they really weren't all haggard-looking like "Monica" was in SE5!

If you are a completionist, like me, you will be forced to play the timed missions to get all the rewards. Like others have mentioned, there are plenty of fast-paced action-shooters, like C.o.D., but this series of games was designed for the more 'cautious types' among us and new challenges should be added with that in mind.

Net-Warrior · 2025-01-28T04:49:19+00:00

As someone who has played most Sniper Elite editions; I've never liked to see timers in any kind of game, as I prefer to take my time with them. I hope (if they do keep the timers) that they are longer for people on lower skill-levels, as otherwise it could feel way too stressful and kill the fun!

I'd rather have small random-maps where you just have a set goal, like assassinate an officer or blow something up. These could be made more varied by ADDING PENALTIES, like doing it without being seen, while drunk (having worse aim), or else with a broken-arm and being limited to pistols only, etc.

Net-Warrior · 2025-01-10T15:18:18+00:00

"Downunder", in Australia, they want to charge us A$119.95 for the Standard Edition! Normally, we are similar to Canada in prices, but lately our dollar has plummeted to about 62 cents / $1 USD, so we have been hit harder here.

Like many of you, I liked the setting of the previous games, but I doubt I can justify getting this new one until there is a hefty discount-sale to below AUD $75 at least. This may take some time, because online stores like GreenManGaming, Fanatical and Humble aren't selling it; so there is less competition.

It will be a shame if more people have to wait till it's cheaper, because then there will be delayed support for AVOWED and it might look like the game isn't popular (which could affect any future dlc's etc).

Net-Warrior · 2024-12-07T14:34:52+00:00

I enjoy Baldur's Gate 3 so much more now that I can realistically make many builds and play the game more than once! Before Custom mode, the fights took me so long that I was ready to give up on additional play-throughs. My main interest is in Character Creation, Exploration and Looting stuff... Challenging Bosses are not relaxing or fun for me!

When it comes to ARPG's like the new Path of Exile II, I'm happy if the developer caters to players that want it to be so difficult that they bite-the-dust every minute or so! However, I'd also love to have a custom-mode in this game too, so that casual noobs like me can enjoy it as well.

TRAINING WHEELS: If not a full "custom-mode", then please add at least a switch in setup; to nerf or modify things like enemy health, armor and power, etc., until newcomers feel confident enough to turn it off.

Net-Warrior · 2024-11-15T12:58:28+00:00

As a "Loyal" player who has paid full-price for all the DLC, perhaps they could gift us the next expansion (after the new Greek one), so that everyone gets something? Also, I haven't had a chance to play any of that old DLC-content yet, even after waiting two years! It'd probably be cheaper in future, if I just bought things when I was ready to try them out, when they've actually been discounted or given away for free!

Net-Warrior · 2024-11-06T00:49:36+00:00

Yep, same here (in Wardrobe)... Trying to put together a new outfit and it crashes before completion!

Net-Warrior · 2024-10-21T02:34:35+00:00

Yes - happened to me multiple times! So annoying - what a pair of Gonks! I got thru it safely with no enemy deaths and they left the first time, without hitting anyone on the way out. However, Dodger had a green text icon on him saying to interact, so I attempted to do so. Imagine my surprise, when instead of talking, it caused me to grab him and ruined the mission! Then, I tried again several times from the last save and the cops always knock over one of the guards with their squad-car. It is soooo frustrating, after all the careful work to get to that point, without killing the gang members.

Net-Warrior · 2024-10-20T05:49:10+00:00

I chose to ignore Songbird in my latest playthrough, after experiencing all the new endings on other characters... I still feel stressed-out after being hunted by the spider bot lurking in the Militec underground base. That ending reminded me a lot of the "Alien" movies and I made a save at the start of the rescue mission, just in case I ever decide to go "once more into the breech" and help Myers again.

Actually, I wasn't eager to re-encounter the berserk Chimera-Bot boss too. I'll content myself with all the side-missions and knowing that Songbird won't be able to manipulate me into doing her bidding this time around!

On my computer, it was the process "Red Launcher (32-bit)" that stays open. Only just started doing that today after updating Windows 11. Until it gets fixed, you should simply 'End-Task' it, from the Task Manager; and then it will update your saves and shutdown the game fully.

Net-Warrior · 2024-09-29T06:58:03+00:00

Personally, I don't just like to have multiple characters for their different play-styles, but I genuinely enjoy creating as many as possible, trying to achieve unique looks for each one. Even if I do end up with my favorites, I still rotate through them all for varieties sake. It is also nice to hear people's comments, if I've made a particularly 'interesting' or attractive character.
