It’s always weird hearing for the first time about a game that’s been super popular overseas for 28 years.

Would love to try Naheulbeuk (many youth memories of the audio adventure) but reluctant to install yet another app/launcher, especially from Amazon (some people are trying to get a boycott going since yesterday). The first game was really cool apparently



I don’t think it was a problem in Morrowind, iirc there was no scaling at all, NPCs just existed at a set level so different areas of the map opened up to you naturally as you leveled up. It’s been a minute since I played through it so I might be mistaken but I don’t remember it being a problem, as opposed to OPblivion




If my memory serves right the IWHBYD skull was datamined, not naturally found.
As for the painted backdrops in some cutscenes, the choice over a fully modeled environment makes sense in the context of the original release, the game ran at around 720p and you could barely tell. There’s another couple of these skyboxes later (start and end of the final level, “Halo”). I personally miss that in games today, I like painted art


Yea 3 is amazing, especially in coop. Physics glitches are almost canonical ! Reach you will have a great time with too, it’s less space opera and more saving pvt ryan but the narrative is intense and beautiful. 4 isn’t bad, but the second to second combat is way less varied and fun than previous games, specifically the new enemies. Perhaps it shines in coop, I don’t know




Absolutely, I can relate. How well does Doom 2016 run on the steam deck ?





“git gud” is honestly never a good defense against any given criticism. Saying this as someone who’s reasonably gud


I’ve been toying with the idea. So many good memories from New Colossus. It might be linear, it’s such a great story. Not Shakespeare great, but honest b-movie great.



I’m slowly wrapping my head around it, the indentation helps !


ah, right. Yes. I’ll make sure to call you when I need a complex parser



You don’t have to talk to them, they just hold the thing together. Very strong men


Even I wouldn’t pay this ridiculous price, and I do animation (hence GPU rendering) for a living.



I’ve been playing for a few months now. I love the concept, the art and the atmosphere of it. And I feel it’s been making me walk more. However, I can’t seem to make any substantial progress in the game. I’m still stuck on the starting landmass (Jarvonia), and while doing activities gets me raw materials and the occasional rare item, I can’t seem to do anything with them as transforming those requires skills I don’t have and don’t know how to obtain.

Am I missing something ? Am I just not walking enough ?


I played a year ago, I don’t remember seeing a bug. Yes actually, I was softlocked once, now that I think of it


wow ! Painkiller vibes, is it just me ??


Light probes, but they don’t update well, because you have to render the world from their point of view frequently, so they’re not suited for dynamic environments


Damn those are impressive record numbers. I hold a personal record of 1738 touches, most on right foot (1999), including a dozen or so touches on both knees. But these guys blow me out the water.



Talos Principle. I set it down months ago when I got stuck on a puzzle. Solved that shit in 10mn yesterday



hop just got it. Thanks for the recommendation. Let’s see what this is all about 😁



yea and Halo Reach hits pretty hard if you don’t know what to expect too


I have heard the name but don’t know what it’s about, I’ll look into it. Thanks !





I played through it last year and got one or two bugs tops, great experience and fantastic game (if you liked TW3)


“Maximum depth reached. Hull damage imminent”

Yes I have just played Subnautica
