I’m sure that he can perceive the depth that the shaft of that valve is drilling into his eye socket when you turn it. That should count for something.


A little bit better controls and stuff too, but yeah, the story, characters, unit customization, etc. was all top-notch.


You mean Civilization: Call to Power. The unit was called the Eco Ranger. And they did make a sequel to it, called Call to Power 2. In some ways it was better, some worse. That being said, CTP1 is my favorite civ of all time (not counting SMAC). They should definitely make another sequel if they can keep the stuff that made it great. Kills me that I can’t get a modern working version of the original somewhere.



Seeing this post about the sale made me check out the Wikipedia article about the game, since I never knew anything about it either. After reading that I’m pretty much sold on it. For a few dollars it’s worth a try.


Reminds me of the '90s when pizza places started putting an ever increasing number of 'A’s in front of their names just so that they’d be first in the phone book. So you had pages of things like “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Plus Pizza”. I used to just skip those pages.




Haven’t had much problems with bugs, probably depends which version(s) you’ve tried. As for the rest, maybe I should look for some videos to see for myself. Is there radio on the official one?


Yeah but from what people are saying, it isn’t as good as the mod version. 😢


Still haven’t managed to get myself to do the big update yet because of the metro mod. 😭



Kinda reminds me of brexit: “I didn’t think that it’d actually happen!”


I did that too!
But it’s always weird when that happens; it seems like Adam Jensen is voice acting for a live person. I did enjoy watching him play the game though.


“No management, no goals.” Yes!! I want it now!! I bought Cities: Skylines so I could do stuff like this, but the gameplay parts make it frustrating.




No, they’ve done a couple of really nice qol updates lately that got rid of most of those, or at least reduced the calls to texts. I mean there’s still some annoyances, but it is better than it was. At least, last time I was there. Only join in maybe once a month or so now.



Cool. I didn’t get to try it when it first came out. My first in the series was Jedi Academy, and by then I wasn’t really interested in going back. This should renew my interest I think. Now if we can just get remasters for Deus Ex and VTMB, I’d explode.


Not that the original reviews were that great to go by either. Could have kept me from a lot of enjoyment.


Man that website is annoying. Say, where’s that summary bot?


Aside from the hilarity of this being true, I can’t seem to stop laughing at just “rusty chicken sword”.


Yeah I felt that while Q2 was technically superior, it just lost all the charm that Q1 had, in the enemies, the general ambience, etc. It just seemed so generic to me. Happened to Blood 1 & 2 as well. It’s much like how many movies rely on special effects instead of their story and characters.



I got it a couple of years ago, but I still feel the same. The game is great!


I’ve been waiting for Sin Gold to go on sale so I got that.

Now I’m debating on Cities: Skylines or not. Sure, $11 seems like a great price, but there is over $500 in dlc! I mean I don’t need or even want all of them, but my disposable income is pretty lacking.

And Jurassic World 2 is haunting or mocking me because I refuse to buy it before I finish the first one (so I don’t get tempted and skip it). But finishing it is hard when I have so many other games taking up my time. (Oh, first world problems! lol)
