I loved the ending. If you all were keeping track of the number of times "A" was mentioned during the relic stuff and other occasions then it wouldn't have come off as a surprise to any of you.

I hope we don't have to wait 5 years for the third part.



1 and 2 are still amazing.

Finished also, was really nice, picked the right click final, loved it. Is the other one worthy of second run?


The other one just ends it right there;

Aye, I was definitely expecting A to make an appearance Very Happy

ah, figured so after getting the other ending, surprising how much i had to second guess which choice was right.... one is definitely more plausible... the other is a pretty staple of video games suspension of disbelief type world.

It's worth watching (on YT, not worth reinstalling the game for) just to see what happens. I liked it, it was a sign of giving up and wanting to be content, but if it would have been the REAL ending? Oh yeah, I'd have been pissed about that.

i picked the right one yeah and i didn't have to save first or anything Laughing
still.... it was well done if you ask me and i was tempted to pick the wrong one too, i guess i figured "nah, that would be too much work for the writers, even if a wonderful plot twist"

A surprisingly good game, was expecting COD 'pew pew pew' style + some buildings collapsing on you and then the game would end, but not this.

By far a great Voice Acting, animations, personality to characters and a great female integration.

This needs to be bought.


Errr, a few technical problems which kind of draw attention in a negative way:

-Did someone notice that after exiting the Skill Panel where you buy new abilities, any key that you press brings you back to that panel ?

-Why is this game changing my weapons constantly ? I fucking hate Dual-Wield, I prefer playing with a pistol or just a Sub-Machine gun, but no... the game just chooses for the player, especially in the final battle where everything gets fucked up and you need to scroll 9k times to get the right weapon.

-In the Asylum, there's a lot of lag when transitioning.

-The Relic indicator gets fucked up occasionally.

And I think that's all, but still a good game.

@b0se

The only issue I had out of the ones you mentioned was the relic indicator. Varying times it just ceased to exist entirely .. I could be standing on TOP of a relic and it wouldn't tell me, heh. Also - I had a remarkable amount of performance issues, which apparently shouldn't have happened, given how a C2D and a GTX560 has been benched at running the game 1080/60. Probably more driver issues Rolling Eyes

I have the game randomly crashing if I jump too much, mini-dump file it generates points to a PhysX game file (Not the installed redistributable oddly enough.) and it's pretty easy to repeat, two laps (of jumping) around in the mansion and it's nearly guaranteed to crash. Razz

Some times I don't notice the relic icon either but I am unsure if it's the above problem or if I just didn't see it as it's pretty small.

Much better then expected.
I thought it wouldn't live up to the first one but I have to say it surpassed it in every aspect. Once I was into it I even preferred the graphic styling over the first one. I really hope they make a 3rd one now Smile

performance issues? really how did you manage that with a 560?

just running a 470 here maxed all the options and everything was smooth as silk and..... last gen graphicy.

I had no performance issues either, and I'm running a lowly 4850. Just had to lower shadows to normal to achieve perfectly smooth gameplay throughout the whole game.

@fuckit

570, not 560. I was referring to the DSOG bench of a 560ti. I'm honestly not sure what was causing it, but there was a lot of time during the game where I was hitting as low as 45 -- I was even forced to disable vsync :\ Most likely just nVidia driver bullshit (once again Rolling Eyes) where my current version has issues with this game >_>

damn man, i wonder how you manage to get nvidia cards to perform so horribly, from what i remember of your PC specs your system is no slouch either.

still though, that sucks, quite a bit, i figured everyone with more than an 8XXX series nvidia would be able to play it on max settings no problem.

The problems pretty much went away when I disabled vsync, the game ran 69-200fps all the time, but WITH vsync? 45 most the time :\ It was bizarre and definitely not atypical of my rig. I was using 290.36, if that makes any difference, and have now upgraded to 295.51.

strange, i played with vsync on and had no problems, is it the same with the up to date driver version?
you do know what a beta driver is, right? by the way, since 285.58 is the latest stable release and both of the other versions you mentioned are beta versions, it means it may fuck up, just in case you weren't aware Cool Face

As far as I understand, NG+ basically lets you start over from the beginning.. but with chapter select so you can jump to wherever you want *and* lets you keep all your unlocked powers/abilities.
