Actually, the game is done downloading, so now I'm praying that I can ignore it and do revision instead like a good boy.

I don't like Uplay (in fact my ubisoft username is ubidrmsucks) but I have to say it's not nearly as bad as it was several years ago.

Is it still the case that it's less bad and more dumb?

Well you can always just login via the web and add it to your library, and worry about using the client or not later.

Yoink.
What?

Oh, Neverwinter Nights? Interesting, always kind of wanted to play that. Might take a look at the sale later if I don't forget.

Sale ends in less than 2 days from now, but I think the free code distribution for NWN is over with. It's still 60% off though.

Just Cause 3 is 75% off on Steam, due to midweek madness.

That puts it on 12,49 euros for me, or 18,74 euros with the Air,Land and Sea expansion pass.

Is it worth it? Anyone here played it and had fun with it? Fun enough to recommend?

I'm having much more fun with Just Cause, myself.

It is to Far Cray what is Saint Row to GTA : more open world, conquering villages and outposts, unlocking weapons and perks.
It has this "you are overpowered" feeling like the Saint Rows (especially with the air expansion, giving Jet Pack + machine gun + missiles to your normally more normal wingsuit.


One little note, though : It's very badly optimized. I can run GTA5 or Saint Row 4 in full HD with every in high, but I run Just Cause 3 in 720p in low details, and still have lag spikes sometimes.

Personally, I would blame that on some sort of internet tomfoolery. It's a likely cause when hardware otherwise shouldn't be expected to be the reason. And publishers/developers are more and more keen on data-mining as the years go by.

Yeah, no.
there is an offline mode, and I got it activated once, and it didn't get lag more nor less.

There's a bad memory leak. Apparently it maybe goes away a little bit if you have 16gm ram. It's a shame, because the Just Cause games are really fun, but you gotta have a smooth gameplay experience.

The devs' handling of the issue has definitely been less than stellar too. It's sad, 'cause it really is such a great series of games.

Well, JC2 was great. JC was... questionable, since they didn't quite have the formula together.
