Rough performance on pc in cities (npc-heavy locations). Lowering settings makes little difference. Would be ok except AIs dont seem to be doing much to require such cpu usage?
Otherwise, am having fun.

Actually interested in hearing more from those here too. I don't care about the Steam reviews because they'll bomb anything and I love the video Cowboy made in reply. In fact I don't think I've ever heard him swear like that and I've been following him since Dark Souls.
Not saying the MTX isn't bad because it is horrible, but capcom's been shoving them in all their games for years. DMC, Street fighter, Monster Hunter, RE4, they all had it, and people loved those games
Now they're doing it to a less mainstream series then people start screaming about it.

I’ve played just under 3hrs so far, the character creation was great, quite in depth. My 3hrs has been interrupted with kids and stuff so I really want to get a good stint (hopefully tonight) where I can immerse myself into the world and get a good feel of it, but early signs are good, combat is fun and challenging, the world looks great but FPS is an issue atm.
I’m on the series x, not a very smooth experience so far I’m hoping they get onto it, I’m yet to enter a big city and heard the FPS dips quite low which won’t be fun at all.
Also small things like cut scenes with NPC’s talking and the sync with voice/lip is out, not a major thing but I know that can put some people off.

Correct me if I am wrong but didn't they do that a few weeks into release with those games when they had built up goodwill and reviews?

I don't mind micro transactions in single player games because they can be ignored but the whole discussion seems to be overshadowing every thing else about the game. Even on PC if looks like it runs like poo and the vocations don't look as in depth or interesting as the first game.
That's right, and it has become apparent that was a shrewd move considering the reaction to DD2.

Bypassed it last week and waiting for the dust to settle but getting keener to grab it this week.
I'm not one who gives a s**t about performance usually, Mass Effect 1 is probably my favourite game of all time. Apart from all that, is the actual game any good? I've still got ages to go in FF7Rebirth so I won't get to this any time soon.
Performance aside, is it the masterpiece people were expecting?

I don’t know how anyone could call it a masterpiece. It’s very similar to the first game (as far as i can remember) but it doesn’t do anything we haven’t seen before. Most of the things i like about it - combat, exploration, builds - have been done better in other titles. I’d compare it to old school ‘eurojank’ titles from back in the day, but i guess ‘asianjank’ wouldn’t be an acceptable description these days. Before original sin and baldurs gate 3, larian did a better job with divinity 2 than what we've gotten here.
