I spent around £40 for my package around 10 years ago, but not bothered. Almost sure I will get SQ42 at the very least and if that is half as good as they promised it will be worth the moneys.

That said I sold an AMD code for a ship I had for £80 also, so I am on £40 profit from that game

I also have another rare ship/account that came with an Intel Optane promo. Will probably sell that too for a nice profit at some point

Hardware Unboxed calling themselves influencers and taking themselves far too seriously.

The reality is AMD nor Bethesda (whom they also tried to harass over this) have no interest in engaging for what is a couple of clows throwing unfounded accusations around for Youtube drama clicks.

Since when did they call themselves influencers?

Oh they have referred to themselves as influencers on serval occasions.

Whelp. Premium edition ordered from cdkeys. Guess I'm fully in. I've always been a bit of a sci-fi nerd so this feels right up my alley. I'm also off from Monday 4th right through to Thursday 14th so plenty of time!

 

[Cantankerous]

Have they leaked any news yet about the first DLC? Expected hours or something.

One of us, one of us.

I have it on Game Pass and already preloaded but i might end up with a standalone copy of it myself as i'm probably going to buy a new GPU soon.

What's the betting a lot of us default to the 'sneaky archer' equivalent.

'This time I'm going to make a two handed sword character.' Four hours later 'Goddamn it, I've made another sneaky archer!'

Tale as old as time that one is.

I will do at least one playthrough of this being a huge puncher to have some low G shenanigans if it's at all possible.

I have no idea what way I will go, but I don't think it will be this

 

[Cantankerous]

Sneak ends up being so useful / powerful it's hard to stay away from it. A nice rifle and hacking skills will do me nicely though.

 

[Brackish]

Sneaky pistol or sneaky knife. Or if they allow a secondary weapon trait then sneaky pistol and knife build, but dual wielding one handed weapons.
Fantasy tangit, lol

I avoid sneaky attributes in these games personally. Prefer the realism of actually having to stay completely hidden when required.

I normally go for weaponry ability and influencing.

 

[BUDFORCE]

Sneak/critical hit combo has been by far the most powerful way to go in all of these recent Bethesda RPGs (at least Skyrim onwards) with the exception on Fallout 76 which was a bit of a weird one.

Personally I find the combat in these games way too easy, I modded Fallout 4 to make it really hard, and even then avoid all the cheesy perks.

Up to you how you want to play it though, that's the beauty of these games.

Should be getting the digital foundry performance analysis tomorrow or within a few days after. Very interested in that one.

Might be the wrong game if you're after realism lol. Arguably influencing is a cheesy method too, a lot of rpgs you can get anything you want with high charisma/speech etc

Sneaking is dull, running in guns blazing is where it’s at.

AKA the knuckle dragger method

Situation dependent innit. Most games that generally try and enforce stealth, I CBA and just go in blazing.
