You don't like hard games but you invested money in what is considered one of the hardest games in the world and then proceed to shit on it when you can't play it because of the difficulty? The fuck?
"I don't like hard games."
SO WHY DO YOU PLAY THEM?
Wow! People are bitter and aggressive here! I had actually abandoned the thread but now I feel under direct attack! Firstly, I never said the game was bad. I said I didn’t like it and it wasn’t for me. My response was to the fact that someone claimed the game could only be enjoyed with one mindset, which I don’t believe. People mod features into games all the time. Think of all the mods that completely alter games like Skyrim and Oblivion. Or, think back to Farcry1, it shipped with no quick save feature and it was the first thing people moded into the game. Sometime after that the developers patched quick save into the game proper. Is it only cheating if you used quick save before the patch? On the subject of cheating; how do you cheat at a single player game? Who are you cheating exactly? Games are meant to be fun. If something allows you to enjoy the game more than shouldn’t you use it? I’m not saying that ‘cheating’ will improve the game for everyone. What I am saying is people enjoy different things in games. Why do I play hard games? I like to see what all the fuss is about. If there is a way for me to enjoy them I do what I can to have fun with them. If not, I move on to something more entertaining. Simple Really.  By removing the monster in Amnesia you're removing the core of the game, the fear factor, the entire point of the game is to survive. If you wanted to experience the atmosphere, then congrats, you removed it and didn't experience it at all.

Now if someone were to mod in quick save support I might actually play it!
What's the point? You'd be left with a mediocre and short RPG with no personality. The way the game mechanics work right now is exactly what Dark Souls is about. If you can't accept that, then I guarantee you that you'll never like the game, even with quicksave added. That’s not very flattering for the title then is it? “Our game is short and has no personality but you should play it to prove you’re hardcore!” I played Demon Souls for a while and thought it has some cool ideas and moments but it didn’t take me long to realize it wasn't for me because of the difficulty. I don’t like hard games. I play pretty much every game I own on the easiest setting because I want to relax and explore the world or enjoy the story. I just want to be entertained. Not everyone enjoys games the same way. You don't like hard games but you invested money in what is considered one of the hardest games in the world and then proceed to shit on it when you can't play it because of the difficulty? The fuck? "I don't like hard games." SO WHY DO YOU PLAY THEM?

It’s just a difference in opinion on what’s fun. Like when I played Amnesia I discovered early on that there was something you could do to remove the monster from the levels entirely except for some scripted events. So on starting every new area I would remove him from play and then explore at my leisure. Playing like this Amnesia was in my top 10 games last year; playing normally I never would have finished it.
You didn't play Amnesia, you cheated and walked through it without any challenge. You broke the game is what you did.

Hard drive based systems feel broken once you've experienced this. Absolutely. I'm running 12gigs of ram, 2 intel 320 120gb SSD's in raid-0, a gtx580, and an i5 intel quad core at 2.8mhz and my machine is performing so much faster than when I had my 7200rpm hdd. For any mass storage (like my itunes library) I use an external usb 3.0 2TB hdd. I'm really loving these drives. Atomic, all of your advice is sound.

RIP you beautiful voice. The world has missed you long before your death. I'd always hoped to hear sing again. Crack is a hell of a drug.

[quote aNouthor=Lee link=topic=5678.msg843317#msg843317 date=1328262674] Just got in, shockingly it doesn't work too well on a Macbook Air. That's all I got for awhile.
They don't pull invites do they? Now that I am in, I don't have to worry about losing it before I have a computer that can play it do I? [/quote] No, and your beta participation will be linked to your account forever. You might get a special in game item for participation when d3 goes live.

Have the Warner Execs even seen the Anime? To recreate THAT in live action is gonna cost a lot of a money. Not sure why they'd be surprised.

Not like anyone is going to see this as Skyrim is coming out the same day.  What's Skyrim? - Ash It's a new basketball game coming out where the players have wings.. It's an EPIC RPG set in a world where things that are magical are happening.

I beat Dark Souls a couple of days ago and I must say it was an incredible ride all the way through. The final fight lacked some, drama, but I think that Lord Gwyn did exactly what any top dog trying to defend his realm would do... get right to work. The good ending was pretty meh.

Level 53. In blight town now. It is a hard thing to admit but I think it's time for Ico to step one place down to number 2 and let Dark Souls reign supreme as the best game ever made. From Software is an amazing developer. If anyone knows just one person from the dev team tell them thank you for me.

Yeah, I knew the 4s was a flop and leave it to Jobs to make an extremist reaction. My first reaction was "Damn why wasn't it George Lucas?". My second thought was "Good Riddance. Maybe apple will stop hating us now." One can only hope. 4S a flop? All because it didn't have a new form factor and was called '5'? good lord... and "good riddance?" fucking hell, man. I honestly wasn't aware that ibdoomed was 8.  I now feel that I know everything about him that I will ever need to. Fine. I realize that equating Jobs alone for all the nightmare that apple causes me on a daily basis is wrong. I'm sure it's not just his fault. Much like I'm sure it's not Lucas alone farking up star wars. Apple causes you to have nightmares? Are you sure you're just not allergic to delicious fruit?

I'm typing this from the coolest piece of technology that I've ever used, the iPad 2. I thank you mr. Jobs for all of the cool stuff. I wonder if Mr. Gates will attend his funeral. They were friends right?

If you own an nvidia card that is a 500 series ENABLE transcoding. It makes a world of difference.
