Piracy is not illegal, but feel free to ban me out of fear. The devs explicitly said that Australians should pirate. But, theoretically, buying a key (off a different site) and redeeming it on steam would work. Some games don't work though so its probably not the best.
@starvinggamer: I would recommend to try dodge lancing, with the evade skill its pretty great. Though, you already seem to have your favorite weapons figured out.
Why so few lance users? You can do a jump attack leading to a mount with it in 4. Also become invincible with the best shield in the game. You should really give it a try.
@trafalgarlaw: PAX privilege! Are you for real, mate? Let the attendees and the panel have their fun and their show how they wish. This isn't like meeting the damn president of the US or something.
I am not going to bother illustrating why video games should not be like movies ,and why video games and movies are and should be a different thing. (You clearly like your own shit, and objectivity is different from liking shit and disagreeing with it's implications) But, is missing lots of shit that made MGS4 great. MGS4 has hours more video content, if you want to make the whole cinematic argument. Not to mention probably 5-7 hours of straight gameplay. I don't give a shit if someone likes something I don't, but I feel that games like The Order are an insult to consumers expecting a video game (and a video game running at 1080 on a $500 console in 2015), and leads the industry in a bad direction when polarized groups claim this is both the biggest AAA piece of shit yet and a hidden gem being brought down by the haters. This causes radical groups who claim that any cutscene or QTE is terrible or the inverse who claim that video games are too hard and they just want to press a button a few times during their movie.
Saying the RPS article is too harsh is fucking insane. The man has stolen peoples money and doesn't even have the common courtesy to tell the fans and backers that they fucked up and will be late. Instead its just more empty promises. If a non-videogame business did this, the spokesperson for that business would get fucked up by the media at large.
@pcorb: Yes, an attempt, and a poor one at that. Why do white males, sitting in their ivory tower of privilege, get to decide and tell minorities how to act and react? Affirmative action is a white man telling everyone else they are not represented and that he will do his best to make sure this isn't the case. Many examples of this are prevalent in American society. Indians living on a reservation being told that they should be called Native Americans because the white feel guilty, yet it is the whites who told them they were Indians in the first place, people of non European ancestry (since race is a meaningless term) given scholarships to college by the government and schools because they are apparently "too stupid or incapable" to get there on their own merit, women being told they have internalized misogyny because they don't agree with radical feminists, and the list could go on. The main point resides in the inability for people to recognize race as the meaningless construct it truly is. What is race? Skin color? Ancestry? Heritage? Country of birth? The incessant application of race and gender (far from binary issues) to the human race, which is shades of grey. We can sit here and talk about these issues affecting people that we don't even know here in our ivory tower of the internet, but the only real way to solve all issues of discrimination is to get all people of the world to understand that the entire history of human behavior is based on incorrect generalizations.
