The Soldier of Fortune series is included in that! Didn't know Blizzard owned them. Timeshift as well. And folks, Warcraft 1 & 2, no one should miss out on those two wonderful games!

I always did enjoy the hell outta WC 1 and 2. Even WC3 was a good one. "Zug-zug" "stop touching me!!" and "You don't touch the other elves like that..."

edit: the quotes from different mobs in WC2 Excellent games guys, gotta grab them!

I have SOF IIouble Helix on DVD featuring GHOUL II Technology no less and how controversial the SOF series was back in the day. Apparently, SOF: Payback was banned in Australia and Germany until modified versions were made available.
Imagine DOOM being banned today? How times change.

Germany bans everything, but Australia? Weird..

I'm a mainly FPS and stealth player, preferring games such as Tomb Raider, Half Life, Hitman etc and wondered if I'd enjoy this. I don't normally play fantasy games.
I got AC Unity on the free offer, but it didn't really hook me. Having said that, Witcher 3 has rave reviews.

It's 150 hour long game so it's definitely worth $15 if you enjoy it.

Unity is more...open world grind. Like, a lot of open world grind. Witcher 3...every location has its own little subplot associated with it like Oblivion/Skyrim. Put bluntly, if you like Oblivion/Skyrim, you'll like Witcher 3. The only thing disappointing about Witcher 3 is the main plot is pretty shallow. Heart of Stone (which GotY version should have) makes up for it though.

I find the sword combat to be a little boring in Witcher 3, it never really challenged me. I would say the best game I have ever played in regards to combat is Prince of Persia trilogy on playstation 2, man those were good times...

I find the sword combat to be a little boring in Witcher 3, it never really challenged me.

Indeed, I was going to mention that. Pretty much everything you combat is the same: Quen (shield) -> dodge -> attack, if hit, Quen again. Only rarely do you need to use Igni (fire) or Aard (wind) because a specific enemy requires it. Combat is pretty shallow...and it's just a matter of getting the pattern right.

That said, the game is very much story driven.

 

[HD64G]

Whoever needs a challenge in Witcher combat can stop using quen and play in hard difficulty settings. It gets interesting for sure.

Precisely why I didn't give up on it...

The story hooked me.

I am primarily a stealth FPS player as well....

I don't really care for the 3rd person combat or the way I had to set up the keys just to make the game playable(left-handed). For me...the combat is extremely hard, tedious, and I die A LOT.

BUT...I don't see myself hanging around "any less than 1000 hours" on this title. IF I could switch perspective like in Skyrim, I'd call it "The Game" of an era.

15. is a steal...especially if DLC is thrown in.

P.S. You couldn't have played SOF II: DH online without running in to at least a few of my bullets. I played that title every night for two years straight from the moment it was released. Loved that game!

it gets hard as in everything simply becomes timed dodges and timing? that's not skill, that's memory muscle and learned behavior. Skill is when you can do combat on the fly and wipe your forehead afterwards and be like holy crap that was amazing and well designed. If I wanted a dark souls experience I'd play dark souls not set a badly made combat game to hard. That being said I loved the Witcher story and atmosphere, I just think it gets too much love.

Kingdom Dome Deliverance, Gothic and For Honor are your games then!

and a lot of indie games too. lot of intense action where I was like holy crap I can't believe I made it through all that... just great design work by the developer imo is what makes for great combat.

that being said there are some things I liked about Witcher 3 combat,

Spoiler: not really a spolier but just incase

like when fighting a gryphon for the first time and using crossbow, that was cool experience, but brief.

As a developer ourselves, we have always wanted a store with fair economics that connects us directly with our players. Thanks to the success of Fortnite, we are now able to share our capabilities with other developers and make that store a reality.
