That is the loyalty discount mentioned above. Guess you own the original game (published by EA) here on Steam while your friend does not.

Quick question. I've bought the collector's edition, so I'll be installing my game tomorrow. Will the Fatesworn expansion be something I'll be able to buy on its own and install when it's released, or do I need to go ahead and buy the Fate edition on Steam now to have access to the expansion when it releases in 2021?

Will be sold separately once it launches. The fate edition is only there to save some bucks.

Sweet! Thanks. I'm happy to hear that. I'm so excited about my collector's edition and to spend even more hundreds of hours in Re-Reckoning (558 logged in the original). The Fate edition is likely going to release far enough ahead from now that I'll be just fine waiting and buying that separately when it releases. Y'all are great. Thank you!

I swear on this day of the year 2020, THQ Nordic is my favorite game publisher of all time. Love the games, love the reduxes, love the loyalty discounts on some of my favorite games.

Played through the game like 1,5 times. The lower difficulty killed the replayability for me somehow. I LOVE harder games, grew up with them. Especially action rpgs. Lets hope VHard kicks some ass. :praisesun:

I hope so too. I'll be making sure to save frequently. Even when playing the original on hard I would get complacent and stop saving, and then I'd do something stupid or stop paying attention and get killed in a really dumb way. That didn't happen too much, but I hate crudoks and ettins and both always give me trouble no matter how many times I've fought them.

That's rule #1 in rpgs anyway. Save often. You never know what glitch or error you might encounter. I remember playing Dragon Age Origins, the Awakening DLC. At some point you was stripped off your gear and got it back later. THAT was the moment i realised you should save damn often. :angrybunny:

Last time i played KoA was in 2014 according to steam. I remember some troublesome enemies. Lets check the player skill 6 years later. xD

That's one issue I have with Dark Souls is that dying respawns you at a bonfire (or lamp in the case of Bloodborne), and saving yourself only happens if you're going to quit to go to the main menu. I rather prefer just respawning where my last save was (whether auto or a manual save I did myself).

I played the original like a week or so ago. Only did a little bit just to kill some time. I already have 558 hours in it, so Re-Reckoning for me is more to experience the increased difficulty, the armor, weapons, and other items I missed out on with the first game, and then that expansion coming in 2021.

Purchased and in the process of downloading.

Dark Souls is a different case imo. Every mistake you do, like aggroing a npc, upgrading a weapon and wasting mats on it, or not cutting off bosses tails(only a thing in DS1) is set in stone for that playthrough. Did you ever play roguelike games like Darkest Dungeon? It's the same. It's the games concept to only have one savefile. Other games have Ironman modes, like Xcom and other isometrical games. Once someone dies, there is no going back. But i wouldn't go that far to play Hardcore in hack&slays like Diablo, Grim Dawn, Torchlight, you name it. :lunar2019piginablanket:

Very true. I've had to teach myself to approach the Souls games very differently from other RPGs and such. I don't do rogue-like games much, and isometrical games usually aren't something I go for either, but it depends on the genre of the game.

I do wish KoA would let us bait out enemies one or two at a time. I can handle the crowds just fine, but I do love that in Dark Souls I just entice each enemy to me and not fight a lot at once. Then again, it's far easier to get in way over your head in those games than it is KoA.

I insty bought this game. Saw people who owned on steam were paying half what I have to even though I bought it twice on other platforms. So I refunded it. Really ♥♥♥♥♥♥ way to create a have-have not situation incorrectly
