From insider leaks overuse of contractors was what put infinite in the mess it was in the beginning… so they’re just doubling down on using contractors instead of listening to the actual workers. It’s a huge shame because right as 343 started to pick up steam with updates Microsoft started firing everyone.

Downgrading should be possible on steam via steam console commands. I noticed large collections on Nexus usually tell you to use some sort of downgrader program but I’ve always just used the steam console instead and been fine.

The infuriating thing about dragons dogma has been all the simple things they could fix but didn’t. The gameplay and atmosphere is amazing but then Capcom have to shoot themselves in the foot constantly. A friend of mine just lost 8 hours of gameplay because they accidentally clicked “Load from last inn” instead of “load from last save” which apparently overwrites your singular save file and removes any progress you made after resting at that inn.

The singular save file BS was a problem in the first game, why the fuck did they reimplement it in the second game!?

Microsoft did the same shit with 343 and it was a big reason infinite came out a total mess. They clearly have learned nothing.

It would be awesome if this game got traction after switching from f2p+micro transactions to p2p-micro transactions. I’ve only ever heard of games doing the opposite.

There’s almost no way you have played BG3 or you’re just being contrarian. I love the old bioware and black isle and crpgs, BG3 absolutely stacks up to 1/2.

To call it “decent” is so disrespectful to the complexity of BG3. Hardly anything else even comes close to the scale of BG3, let alone any game fully voiced, in terms of decisions, outcomes, dialogs, and campaign paths of BG3. I’m 70 hours into my first playthrough and still likely have another 10-20 hours left of act 3. And all of those hours have felt impactful and engaging; none of that filler garbage you see in other games this size like AC or starfield.
