Astonishing Apathy
CHEER UP HALFIE!I need to play the Witcher more, but it seems like the game nudges you to do the "wrong" thing occasionally. Either that, or it's very neutral as to what feels like is recommended, and nothing is really a "good" choice. Then again, you don't have a decent PC, do you? =\

Adventures in Middle-Aged Gaming: I Would Support Monthly Fees For Shooters if...
@Brett Parsons: "I...don’t get much value out of my FPS games when there’s a strong online component." I'm the same way. I haven't played TF2 on PC since the... Soldier Update? It's been a LONG time. I could see myself springing for this type of model if the monthly fee netted you ALL of the content released (which I'm sure it would, Activision would be insane not to), so you could come back and play it for a month straight and have all of the new content and not play it again for a year (like I do with Counter-Strike).If I don't have a group of people that I know closely/like playing with playing a game I flat-out won't play it, especially if it's of a competitive nature. So what's the point of having the subscription for that style of player?
