  • True but that won't help with many modern games.

  • Ugh.. I wish more developers kept their customers engaged by making good games instead of creating some meta game to keep the hamster wheel running. That feels like a lot of MMO's..

  • Assassin's Creed Mirage will take 25-30 hours to complete – and that's if you're a completionist

    Jump

  • Sounds promising!

    I loved the setting of Origins but got burnt out doing all the tedious bits they sprinkled all over the maps that didn't contribute to the story in ant way and was mostly the same over and over again.

    And yes, I know I could skip stuff but I wanted to experience the full hame too.. so.. yeah.

    It definitely could've been trimmed down a bit.

  • That would be awesome, I hope they can do it!

  • Yes!

  • Wonder is Valve could implement that on windows as well?

  • I'd never play that on PC. It would work on xbox though since quick resume just let's ju pop out to the dashboard and resume whenever. It's not foolproof but I've only had to restart from a checkpoint a few times.

  • Save states would be nice. Just dump the game's data from ram to disk.

    That would probably take up a ton of space though. :)

  • Some games seem to manage it quite well though? But yeah, they probably had to pit a lot more energy into implementing it.

  • Pet peeve, games that won't let you save

    Jump

  • Yeah, good point and that's a valid reason I suppose.

    It's still very nice when you have more flexibility.

    Wish PC games could implement something like the xbox quick resume or something.

  • Autosaves are great and all.. I just want to be able to quit whenever. There's usually a confirmation when you're trying to quit anyway. Just save and quit then. :P

    I'm glad at least some games still allow you to do that.

  • Pet peeve, games that won't let you save

    Jump

  • Yeah, quick resume on xbox as well and that's great, most modern games use it. Not all though and not on PC.

  • Pet peeve, games that won't let you save

    Jump

  • Yeah, it really can't be that hard to show a saving indicator..

  • Display name character limit?

    Jump

  • Pretty sure the current limit is 20 characters. I hit that wall as well when I tried setting my wanted display name.

  • "Let's see Paul Allen's Fallout"

    Jump

  • I never really managed to get into NV. I really should give it another try soon. I loved 1,2 and 3. Played 4 a bit but lost interest after a while.

    I think it's the whole western vibe that NV has going on that put me off.

    Might have to install it again and put some serious hours into it to see if I manage to get hooked.

  • Yup, did that too! :)
