this is the biggest disappointment to me. the game wasn’t good enough to justify all the crazy star wars mods that could have been. even lightsabers and speeders won’t make this into a good game unfortunately


anyone remember in the black and white 2 lion head logo screen how you could move the logo around and fuck up the filling of it with the little beads?


the key phrase there being ‘more frequent’. the fast travel and character customization are all in the game and have a more in-universe integration. the game systems are supposed to be more immersive than just click the map and fast travel. you typically either take a cart from town to town or warp using a stone that gets used up.

I like it the way it is, makes leaving town to quest and adventure have another layer of strategy. If someone wants to bypass that strategy layer with money then so be it. I certainly would prefer that it be a mod rather than a MTX, and will definitely not be buying any regardless.


metro mod works (I’m on v2.01).

didn’t they add official metros in the latest update anyway?



I think it works pretty well now. it’s good as-is, but also the mod scene has matured to the point where you can mold it to your liking as well.


I had forgotten how pointless the computers were. Barely any lore on them even. And the worst simply Open Door that is right in front of you.


Yes, but not as seamless. You basically add the epic store as a ‘game’



I can dig it! Played a lot of fun PA, even the early shit days before titans.

Interesting concept, hopefully it pans out


I have the previous version. Going on 3-4 ears now. It is good. Great even, assuming your camera requirements aren’t super high. The programmable buttons are so excellent and I wish that was a more prevalent feature.


Goddamn, the devs of this game are just so passionate about it and it shows in the game itself, love to see it!


Just started on SoD today. Pretty wild how free form it is. Fantastic.


Yeah, but that was just the voice. This (and Keanu silverhand) are trying to be the actors straight up playing characters in the game.


I’ll throw down the factorio card for this week. Trying it out on the steam deck. Plays pretty good so far. Bit clunky in the controls, but I’ll keep messing around with them. Plus it’s great for the pick up and play, although I’ll prob need to leave notes or something when things get more complex so I don’t lose the thread


Keep at it! Been stoked for Skyblivion. And there’s no way the remaster will even match it. They’ll likely just upgrade the graphics a bit and call it a day



Do you have to go through the long opening sequence content again in NG+? Like all the way through to getting Sam Coe? I do wish they would kinda just plop you out in the world faster like New Vegas


The starting sequence is waaay too long.

Hey, I’ve got an idea for how to start our go-anywhere do-anything space exploration game! 8 hours of hand holding tutorial quests ought to be plenty of buildup, right? None of this exciting dragon attack starting sequence BS, let’s really bore the hell out of our players.


I like that they donnt use the grid. Feels more natural. That being said, I would occasionally like a measurement tool or something so you can see if you’re within 5/60 ft or whatever


That demo thing they did a while back looked pretty lack-luster.

“make any ship you can imagine” while they cycle through like 5 premades, 2 of which have the exact same cockpit…


I second BG3. And just do mouse with off-hand. Or set up keyboard to act as mouse.



The early access well for me. Pretty stable graphically. I used the track pad mostly with a few keybound shortcuts


Maybe it’s time to give up on Battlefield. They’ve got like a 50% record, maybe.


The era of the telltale games is pretty done and over with. It was a good gimmick (in a nice sense) for a while, but got stale. TWD and the Wolf one were quite enjoyable though



Mostly just a standard fluffy interview. Game is good though, looking forward to playing it with my mates. We dug the first one



Dungeon crawl stone soup. Vampire summoner or octopus berserker?


Nah, do the books or show. All these telltale games are better knowing the world beforehand


Been playing a bit of BG3 lately. Not sure if I like the dnd system better than their Divinity one. At least for a video game. I suppose it’s too early to tell since it’s not ‘out’ yet though


Baldurs gate 3. Thought it would be more complete since it’s coming out soon. Still good though.
I’ve always had trouble getting into these isometric rpgs for some reason. Divinity, wasteland, old baldurs gate, even dragon age origins. Somehow the disconnect between the control and the character gets to me.
I’m going to try to get deep enough into this one though so that the story can actually shine through


Seems like a good idea, honestly. Their engine is pretty cool with the hyperinteractivity, but the horror aspect wasn’t really for me. A cool Sherlock type game would be dope
