What are you Playing Now? No really, tell us more...
bugarup replied to Wormerine's topic in Computer and Console
I say it is a reasonable price, although as someone who has it on CD and on Gamersgate and GOG I might be a little biased. It did not run smoothly on Windows 10 for me, there was some weird graphical glitch, but I remember googling some workaround that worked. -
They did veto movies from distribution in the past, like "Dogma" and I have a sneaking suspicion they still practice that, can't be arsed to sniff for sources though. Cannot comment on superhero schlock as I don't care for it unless Taika Waititi or Deadpool is involved, but didn't they switch SW directors after "The Last Jedi" turned controversial for more "traditional" (but also stupider) next installation whatsitsname? Also, didn't they fire some director over 10 years old edgy messages and Mandalorian's actress over some dumb tweet? Their being allergic to any kind of IRL controversy is IMO as worse than product sanitizing.

The TV and Streaming Thread: Where is Ricky Gervais when you need him???
bugarup replied to Zoraptor's topic in Way Off-Topic
Yeah, maybe not that terrible and there is a handful of other outliers, but that only emphasizes tw†tness of the majority. -
And he is all blue! (aka "And you thought Scooter was cheesy")

Oh, it will suck. And I bet my hat it'll gloss over how all Silmarillion's elves were arrogant, insufferable, condescending supremacists. -
They are bloated and busy corporation, they don't have time to censor everything their subsidiaries do. They even let "Pulp Fiction" slip through once upon the time.

Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous, Part 3
bugarup replied to ShadySands's topic in Computer and Console
Thanks a lot! Saved for future. As for my imagination isn't good enough to come up with anything but self buffs I'm afraid, but it produced this instead, so that's still a win: -
Wasn't saying it realistic, just very very horrible. Imagine kings of everything sanitized, defanged, declawed, homogenous, PG-13, god forbid any controversy gets in, with their army of ever vigilant copyright lawyers on standby owning so many IPs? That's how civilizations end.

Guys, you know what would be REALLY horrendous? This new conglomerate getting purchased by Disney.

Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous, Part 3
bugarup replied to ShadySands's topic in Computer and Console
Can you please post instructions how to make a celestial velociraptor o'holy smite, Gromnir? The concept's too hilarious not to use, plus very appropriate in the combined world of silly by definition alignments and Owlcat's curious belief that lawfulness = uncompromising brutality. As for Wendy, does she really give "T-thanks for t-t-rusting me bonsai baka-chan... *blush*" spiel at some point? I only met her briefly so far, but she didn't give me an impression of anime waifu type of woman. Also, her original art > that fanart. -

Ooh, I'm playing this one too! Alex best girl, Nathan best boy, minigame...not very good, so I still prefer this dev's previous game, "Weedcraft", as my go-to casual-with-a-tea-mug game, since its soundtrack is much better as well. -
There is this thing with my Youtube reccomendations, when it offers up something that is definitely not like all the other things in there, and it keeps popping up no matter how persistently I ignore it until I give up and, hey, it appears it is not bad at all. And now I'm off to listen to everything by "Dead South".

I miss Bioware's* writing. Larian, though, should return monkeys to the zoo, sell the typewriters and use that budget to finally hire a writer. * Except Andromeda and Inquisition, these suck too much. -

Statistics tells me I've been mostly replaying old stuff in the year of Our Lord 2021. It probably tells stuff about year itself and aspects of my personality too, but whatever. And so - GOATEE of this year would be Kenshi. Which will also prolly be GOATEE of 2022, since I clocked in 400 hours and I am not bored at all yet. It's sort of "What if the SIms were in really cool Mad Maxy setting sans autos but with katanas and also had a bit lolrandom but essentially benevolent gamemaster", and I am addicted. (Note to self: avoid Rimworld until retired, I have a sneaking suspicion it's the same kind of crack). "So bad it's good" trophy goes to Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel". Oy vey...where to start? Walking plywood board for trite motivational posters of a protagonist. Annoying enemies that always run away on defeat, again and again and yet again (speaking of which, ptui on you, Kai Leng!). The most ridiculously insufferable antagonist since (ptui!) Kai Leng. Your team is all children and yet boob jokes everywhere and girls dressed in school uniforms by way of Pornhub, also the majority of characters somehow are bland and overly melodramatic at the same time. Insipid chirpy pop soundtrack. Incest overtones. . Also, very fun turn-based combat system and surprisingly detailed, mature worldbuilding that is so wasted on all those horrible characters inhabiting that world. So, yeah. I am totally going to play the next game in the series. Aaaaand lastly, "I'll come back one day, I promise!" consolation prize goes to those 30+ games I started and never bothered to -
Which game are you looking forward to?
bugarup replied to Dr DC Fate's topic in Computer and Console
I wish Icepick Lodge would finish Bachelor route for "Pathologic 2" next year, because now when I know they're on it I can't play it because I want to do it in proper order, Bachelor then Haruspex. -

That's weird. I couldn't make 5 steps without meeting him in Act 2. Again. And again and again... -
Spirit-o-meter was a non-issue on suppressive goody-goody runs, but on soul glutton runs you could easily die when travelling on not totally full stomach. Still, manageable and I liked it. 'sfunny how I love tricky resource management systems like in MOTB or "Pathologic" or "The Void" or even long term timers like in Fallout 1, but short term timers where you must race somewhere IMMEDIATELY RIGHT NOW NOW NOW GO!!! make me feel something between road rage and stepping barefoot in dogsh†t.

I love everything zombies, but I get you guys - I feel the same way about high aka "poor man's Tolkien" fantasy. Really liked Dead State, wish there were more of it, also have both Dead Ages, might give them a try around Christmas if I'm ever able to unglue myself from "Kenshi". ...now when I think, I probably own every zombie adjacent game on GOG, even ones I kind of don't get, such as Dying Light. Like, open world parkour, wtf, why did I even buy it...oh, right. Zombies!

I hate TW2's combat more than TW1's. My last attempt at TW2 at least took me past tutorial, but I stalled in some forest-type corridor labyrinth where I was passing time until some 8-17 workhour schmuck arrives to his office or something. I hope there will be proper cities somewhere ahead and not just bloody stupid corridor dungeons, because OCD demands to finish TW2 before doing TW3 and I am sooooo unmotivated to finish TW2.

You can't? You can put it on auto just as that KM fluff, but you can miss out on some useful loot this way. Unless they sneaked that toggle in some patch or something? Anyway, there's a mod that makes all crusade fights auto-win, though.
