They're the first things I'll be disabling. I don't mind HUDS, but actual markers/pointers and "frob" highlights? No thanks. Just like DXHR; I disabled quest markers and object highlighting. The rest can stay.

First time ever I see a review from Gamespot that doesn't have a "The Bad" summary. Yet they still only give 90 to the game. I guess they need to save the 94-95's for the Halo 4's and BLOP's later this year lol wut

Anything that tells me what to do/where to go is automatically disabled here as well. I always want to find out things myself. Razz

I usually leave the quest markers on... so I would know where not to go until I have explored all other areas Very Happy

Hahaha, that's actually a good point grinhurt Use quest markers (especially in aRPGs, those little ! and ? pointers) as boundaries for areas where you DON'T want to go Very Happy

I badly want to play it tonight.

Cheers mates.

Dunno where you've been reading that, but the official NA release is on the 9th and that's when the game unlocks in Steam as well.

Hmmm, 30gbp is 48 dollars. Bought it at gmg for 43, 45 with the voucher + some trade ins.

Well, in that case my post is mostly useless.

Still, with the derpGN discount(which everyone should have ) you could bring it down to £26.49, which also is not a bad deal.

Unfortunately I have much more, erm, "financial constraints" when compared to previous years so not even that relatively low price helps me.

99% Shocked

Bit-Tech has been one of my favourite sites for reading reviews for several years already. Mainly because they generally make no compromises (also depends on the reviewer) and they are very unforgiving with flaws (gameplay or technical the same), and severely dislike derp elements in games.

So now they just made me even more hyped about this game (if that's possible)!
