What are you playing right now?

You can't do the DLC right after finishing the game. You'll have to progress some hours in a NG+ or on a new game to be able to play the DLC. I would not want my first experience with the DLC to be in NG+, it's a lot harder than the base game IMO.

Because of the leveling?

You have to have advanced somewhat through the story to be able to start the DLC, and when you beat the base game it automatically changes your save into a NG+ and starts you back at the beginning in Central Yharnam. I wouldn't want my first experience with the DLC to be in NG+ since the DLC both throws a lot of enemies at you and also has bosses without the kind of easily exploitable fatal flaws you see in most of the bosses in the base game.

Far Cry 5 actually has some decent system requirements:

MINIMUM CONFIGURATION:
OS: Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 (64-bit versions only)
PROCESSOR: Intel Core i5-2400 @ 3.1 GHz or AMD FX-6300 @ 3.5 GHz or equivalent
VIDEO CARD: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 or AMD R9 270 (2GB VRAM with Shader Model 5.0 or better)
SYSTEM RAM: 8GB
Resolution: 720p
Video Preset: Low

RECOMMENDED CONFIGURATION (60 FPS):
OS: Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 (64-bit versions only)
PROCESSOR: Intel Core i7-4770 @ 3.4 GHz or AMD Ryzen 5 1600 @ 3.2 GHz or equivalent
VIDEO CARD: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 or AMD R9 290X (4GB VRAM with Shader Model 5.0 or better)
SYSTEM RAM: 8GB
Resolution: 1080p
Video Preset: High

4K 30 FPS CONFIGURATION:
OS: Windows 10 (64-bit version only)
PROCESSOR: Intel Core i7-6700 @ 3.4 GHz or AMD Ryzen 5 1600X @ 3.6 GHz or equivalent
VIDEO CARD: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 or AMD RX Vega 56 (8GB VRAM with Shader Model 5.0 or better)
SYSTEM RAM: 16GB
Resolution: 2160p
Video Preset: High

4K 60 FPS CONFIGURATION:
OS: Windows 10 (64-bit version only)
PROCESSOR: Intel Core i7-6700K @ 4.0 GHz or AMD Ryzen 7 1700X @ 3.4 GHz or equivalent
VIDEO CARD: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 SLI or AMD RX Vega 56 CFX (8GB VRAM with Shader Model 5.0 or better)
SYSTEM RAM: 16GB
Resolution: 2160p
Video Preset: High/Ultra

That 1080p high 60 fps requirement is basically the PC I have except I have 16GB of overclocked DDR3 instead of the 8GB they recommend. Not too bad for a 3 1/2 year old system. I might have to buy this one instead of pirate if it has good enough optimization to run well on that level hardware.

Well that sounds brutal Lol and they know how to hurt people with their Souls games too, so Im gonna do what you say and be a good boy, at least for a while.

Anyone ever play Divinity 2 Original Sin? Thinking about getting it on the pc, looks pretty cool and has good reviews.

Weren't you getting Monster Hunter? It's getting good reviews.

I'm about to geek out and buy Dragon Ball Fighterz. An impressive 2D 3 vs 3 fighting game in the same line blood of Marvel Vs Capcom. The game also looks so good graphically.

I am but I amazoned it too late for the prime discount so it won't be here til Tuesday. Plus since I have a PC now I'm trying to stock up on stuff and know what to look for on steam sales tbh

I wasn't that interested when I saw Monster Hunter World at E3, but I gotta admit it looks intriguing now. Have you played any of the other games in the series? I have three or four Monster Hunter games on my CFW 3DS so I should check those first, but I'm kind of into Bravely Default right now on that system.

Just finished ending C 60 total hours of gameplay

[Leetonidas]

Playing Monster Hunter World finally. Controls are weird as I feel like though

Yes, I have both. Original Sin II is better in every way, but it's much harder to pick up if you're coming from the 1st one.. They added a new armor mechanic and it really adds to the difficulty level of an already hard game. I'm not big on turn based RPG's, but the combat here is pretty entertaining.

Picked up Battlefield 1. What a POS game. I remember why i hated whatever one of the first one was on PS3. Some of the maps are so big, i spawn in an open area. I got killed three straight spawns before i could get behind some cover. So big there seems to ALWAYS be a sniper eyed in on me. How in the is it 15 years later and i'm still waiting for a game like Socom 2? I'd ing rather play plants vs zombies than this BS. At this point, i don't even care if its remastered or not. Give me some Super Mario 64 style graphics and we'll pack that server every night. What a joke, no wonder why Nintendo has always made the great games. Can you imagine if after 4 hit Mario games they never made another one again?

If you're looking for a game like SOCOM, you should look into Arma 3

[sickdsm]

Console only.

Console only.

Tbh, if you want serious military sims, you gotta make that switch. BF is an arcadey FPS (Bad Company 2 was the awesome because all the s were still brainwashed on CoD), with a ton of migrated CoD assholes. Their idea of fun is laying in wait and sniping unsuspecting souls.

[apalisoc_9]

Finished all 5 relevant endings with nier. Solid game. A bit in the corny side of story execution and environments were dull...but Im actually thinking of replaying bayonetta and DMC now. Platinum really nailed the gameplay in nier. 8.5/10.

Anyways, sold it today and driving in a couple of hours to our local gamestore to get Monster hunter. I was gonna get persona 5 but its crazy how its still sold at full price.

I figure by the time im done with monster hunter world, persona would be 20% off at least. Still 20 Canadian dollars to play all three games and I get to keep one too. I sold nier at a profit since i got it during canadian boxing week 30 dollars off.

That's the one game that makes me want a PS4 Pro to play it at 60 fps. I'm kind of tempted since Gamestop will give me $180 for my PS4 Slim that I paid $220 for back in December 2016.

Sucks that Persona 5 is so expensive in Canada. It's on sale for $30 all the time in the US. Best Buy, Gamestop, Amazon, Target, and the PSN Store run it all the time for $30. I paid $60 for it and think it's easily worth full price though. I think it's the only game I ever paid $60 for on PS4.

I am paying full price for monster hunter. I think ill end keeping persona so once im done with monster hunter ill flip it for persona 5.

Also since you loved nier so much. Check out platinum new game granblue. It looks so good. The g
Combat looks like sex.

Finished re7 on hardcore. Outlast trinity on the way in the mail

[apalisoc_9]

Celeste an indie game is at 95% right now on metacritic. 10s all over.

Man..Anyway 2018 beats 2017? PS4 did most of the carrying in 2017 and its probably gonna stay the same way but huge potential for switch.

[Leetonidas]

Anyone ever hear of a game called Subnautica? I've been looking at some gameplay and reviews and it seems kinda like No Man's Ocean but with an actual point to the game. i might check it out when it goes on sale on steam

I haven't heard of that game but it looks interesting. I'm going to have to play Monster Hunter 4 on 3DS before checking MH World.

Meh Metacritic. Game critics love to overrate indie games that are decent to good and pretend they're on par with Skyrim. If I want to play Super Nintendo style games I have an SNES Classic and a Raspberry Pi with Retropie on it to play the real thing.

2018 looks really solid for PS4 but I can't imagine they're going to top NieR Automata, Persona 5, and Horizon Zero Dawn for console exclusives this year. Days Gone and God of War look like they'll be really good, but that's asking a lot for them to be as strong as those three 2017 classics. We don't know anything about Ghost of Tsushima yet and I'm not very hyped on Spiderman from what I have seen.

For Switch 2018 looks like a big question mark. I mean it doesn't look like a guaranteed year like XBox has coming up since there seem to be some really interesting things in the pipeline. If Project Octopath Traveler comes out this year it'll probably be a must buy for any RPG fan with a Switch considering how awesome Bravely Default is. And you gotta think the rumored Fire Emblem should be pretty solid too. But I don't know if either will be a 2018 game. I can't imagine Shin Megami Tensei V, Metroid Prime 4, or Bayonetta 3 will be out this year since we have seen nothing about them yet other than quick minute long trailers. That Nintendo Direct we saw a couple of weeks ago was supremely disappointing since it was mostly Wii U games coming to the Switch. I wonder if we'll be waiting until E3 to find out if anything worthwhile is coming out on Switch this year.

Man moving from nier fast paced and stylish gameplay to a slow gameplay like MH...is bad. Maybe ill get used to it in a day or two.
