Mainly play on console, but I’ll keep this in mind for future. Thanks for the tip.

That “Big Grey Guy” is one of the major reason I haven’t tried the game. And well the fact that I don’t like horror, but I am going to blame the Big Grey Guy!

Project Zomboid is back!

I was just joking, but thanks for the info, didn’t know that.

Why do female player character have more friends than male player character? I feel discriminated!

lol, same here. Except leaning towards super annoyed because of some work related things.

It did feel like exaggeration to me, but it could be my bias. May feel differently about it later.

You are right about the fact that it could be an agency. Maybe I was just being pedantic 😀

That’s an interesting point. You are right about that.

Okay, so grammatically, in perfect tense we can use plural to mention a thing that has happened at least (or exactly) once? Wouldn’t using a plural imply multiple, when the known fact is singular?

Well, the quote specifically says “a private investigator”.

Well, it’s good to know I am not the only weird one 😀

Paczynski says they once hired a private investigator to find someone living off the grid in the UK. He had unknowingly inherited the rights to several games, but was super supportive of “preserving his family’s legacy” when GOG tracked him down.

So, it happened once. And they hired one private investigator. Not that it isn’t interesting, but why exaggerate everything?

Remaining quotes from article:

“To be perfectly honest, it’s harder than we thought it would be,” Paczynski explained. “What we’ve found out is that games and how they work has deteriorated way faster than what we thought. And we are not talking only about the game not launching. We are talking about more subtle things as well, like the game not supporting modern controllers, or the game not supporting ultra-widescreen or modern resolutions, or even a simple thing like not being able to minimise the game, which is an essential feature today.”

Pacyznski says digital rights management (DRM) features are especially frustrating to circumvent, which means they’re working as designed. Heck, some rather famous games are unplayable without third-party patches because of DRM — any old Xbox-to-PC that’s saddled with a “Games for Windows Live” log-in comes to mind.

Pacyznski suggests that triple-A developers remove DRM from games after a few years to make life easier for future game preservationists. Of course, this will never happen because executives don’t care about preserving games.

I can understand. Sometimes this causes me to play the starting area of the game multiple times, just to make sure I chose the right starting class etc.

This feels like how it will be if there is a real-life Zombie apocalypse. It’s different than playing games, we won’t be killing the hordes, we will just be scared as hell and trying to run as fast as we can.

Why did you drop BG3 before?

I loved the first one, but the second one has much bigger rooms, you often die before even seeing your enemy.

I have been waiting for Cave Story+ to go on a sale for so long, I don’t think it’s every going to happen. Will just have to buy it at full price some day.

That sounds scary.

The colours! My eyes!

Interesting, thanks for the info!

Ahan, cool.

Is the NG+ just the same game again or are there any differences like in Neir games?

It was never sustainable, they threw in tons of money to disrupt the market and get subscribers share, and now that they have done that as much as they can, they are trying to get the money.

Heh, that’s some interesting bits of exploration.

I played it all today in one sitting

Oh, must be a short game.

In total it took about 14 hours for one playthrough.

Uhh… that’s about 2 weeks worth of game time for me.

I am not a fan of survival horror (or any horror), but I am glad to see the genre is being revitalized for those who love these.

1 down, 433 more to go!

I was going to just share this, but it is also out of stock. Though, at least there is hope of it being available in future.

Character looks a bit like Samus Aran in the thumbnail.

Winning is overrated, pulling off dorky moves with the friends is all the fun!

Yeah, I liked it. Lots of stuff I am interested in.

Your posts made Nintendo release Galaxy (and Galaxy 2) on Switch! They didn’t want this free publicity to go away 😀

Ah interesting.

Wow, that’s some dedication. Salute to you for actually getting those achievements.

That’s an interesting way to play Deux Ex, never tried the sniper walkthrough, will give a try if I went back to it.

I agree with most of it, except I think it’s fine for developers to make a hard (or very hard game) if that’s their vision. Not every games is for everyone. And if developers are fine with targeting just a niche, there is no issue with it.

That being said, I do have issue with players / gamers saying there should be no easy mode. Adding an easy mode doesn’t take away anything for anyone who isn’t playing easy mode. All it takes away is their ability to brag that they finished a game half the people can’t finish. There are ways for developers to handle even that. Give some special achievement or something for those who finish on non-easy mode, but that’s again up to developers, and I am fine if there isn’t one.

Yeah, I feel more at home with 8 too.

How will you compare it with MK: World?

Heh, have heard similar things from others, just not sure if that would work for me, but still, sounds like worth a try at least.

Thanks. I guess I should just give it a try some day.

Number going up can be fun for a while too…

I want to try this, but I am not a big fan of sandbox games without any set goals. Is there any kind of single player campaign in it?

Switch 2 is bigger than Switch 1. I am not very comfortable taking it outside home yet, still use my old Switch 1 for that. So, this could be one of the reason.

And yeah, it would be interesting to see how long it keeps this momentum.
