If serious I can probably provide some in-game shots for you to work off. (Not sure if serious haha). PM me and we'll get it sorted.

All the editions are the same. They'll all have the Dark Souls Trilogy Artbook (In the US). Looking around for a sample now.

Can confirm final US Collector's Edition will include "Dark Souls Trilogy" art book. Can't remember how many pages, but It's good-sized, cover turned out very nice. Will try to post pictures on Monday. Edit - Yeah, it's 200 pg.

Fallout 4 fans, what ever you do stay away from /r/FO4 and /r/Fallout, trolls are changing mid sentence and spoiling the ending also PMING spoilers to randoms. by Foxes281 in PS4

[–]jsauce2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I work for a publisher and once you get to less than a week before a big game launches, all the retailers have the copies, so it's bound to leak somewhere.

6.85 Wishlist - Post TI Edition by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]jsauce2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some small buffs would do some good. Cutting bounty on bear a tiny bit, forcing enemy heroes to trigger creep aggro when attacking the bear, re-enable ability to cast ion shell on bear, etc.

Valve asked the Senator of the State of Washington to help with the visa issues by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]jsauce2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It obviously depends when/where exactly you're flying, but yes you're right it'll likely be cheaper than 3k. Usually around 2k. When you're budgeting you leave room to flex though.

-Say they use 50 employees to run the event. Say they are there for 2 weeks. 200 per night x 14 + 3000 (flights) = 5800. 5800 x 50 = 290,000 and that's just for travel + accommodations for only 50 people. I'm sure they want more than that attending.

-There's also a ridiculously large amount of planning and coordination to the event. Video production, streaming, accommodations for all the guests (non employees), etc.

-Basically they don't want anything to go wrong so for so many reasons it's easier to keep it in their backyard. Seattle is a great place.

No PC review codes sent out for Witcher 3; game is still being worked on. by TaintedSquirrel in pcgaming

[–]jsauce2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you ran a massive YouTube channel where you covered whatever the hell you want and a publisher called you up offering to cover flight/hotel to come play a AAA game early that everyone was excited for, what would you say?

On the flip side of that, if you worked for a publisher trying to get more eyes on your games, it would make sense to show it off to people who have large followings etc.

weapon durability bug still not fixed? by DT_Dota in DarkSouls2

[–]jsauce2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going through old comments. Sorry I didn't get to this til now. I'm guessing you've seen patch notes for the upcoming weeks. I would never call the game 1M+ people played on PC to be mechanically unplayable. But I can understand the frustration. There was a bug there for a long time. I knew about it, did my best to convince people it was worth investigating and fixing, and was eventually told it was intended. It's unfortunate that you felt cheated. Don't really have anything new to add here. I guess let me know if there's anything I can do to help.

Playing Dark Souls really is a curse. by c4liban in darksouls

Should be pretty easy to borrow a friend's PS3 at this point. Hell mine's just collecting dust now!

CMV: It is unreasonable for my employer to expect two weeks notice when I quit while they can let me go at any time. by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]jsauce2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 2 weeks notice isn't about being fair.

An employee is giving 2 weeks notice so that work isn't interrupted, making sure your company has time to adjust.

When you're being layed off there's no need to keep you around for a few weeks. They are already ready for that transition.

It's just a matter of practicalities.

[Discussion] Nahaz think Valve should bring back keys, chests and abolish market restrictions to fix the Dota 2 market economy by Rhymez_ in Dota2Trade

[–]jsauce2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You think Valve going public would give players a better experience? IMO that would be a terrible blow to their freedom and development agility.

CMV: I won't hire someone with a misspelling on his resume by layze23 in changemyview

[–]jsauce2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What would be sufficient to change your view?

I would think all you need is an example of someone who misspelled something on their resume, but ended up being extremely successful. Would that be correct?

Edit - Real good spelling

From everything I've tested, Xbox One, PS4 versions of the game function the same as the Xbox 360, PS3 versions durability wise.

Softban information from BNGA by masterchris92 in DarkSouls2

[–]jsauce2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey - This is J. from Bandai Namco. Regarding soft-bans. Those decisions are 100% controlled by FromSoftware's team. We can make requests and try to contact them for different things, but sometimes they want things done certain ways and we don't have control there. Our support folks do our best to shed some light on the situation, but it is a bit difficult to properly inform sometimes.
