I think my biggest issue with the Shadowrun games was that they are basically hotspot clickers and combat happened only in specific areas. It felt artificial and limited to me. Especially since originally I kinda wanted it to be like Fallout, but then it ended up being... what it was. Still think that Dragonfall was nice. Just.. generally those games could have been better, imo.

lol so out of curiosity I checked the list of american presidents killed or wounded and with exception of John F. Kennedy it's all republicans. Maybe they should stop rattling the cage so much.

Wasn't the very first Shadowrun super linear and such? I remember thinking it was ok but it didn't really wow me. Sadly I can't really remember what exactly happened in Dragonfall, and hell, I can't even really remember the story except that it had something to do with a dragon(?)... Maybe I should replay it at some point. Or maybe should try Hong Kong again after all... Though, right now I got hooked with Cyberpunk 2077 and Phantom Liberty again, since the recent talk about it.

"Sabotaged" sounds very preposterous to me. Bethsoft releasing some update for the TV show is not a huge surprise, and mods breaking on game updates is also often expected. The reason why the fallout (heh) of that is so big is because of all those script extender hacks that stop working once the exe file changes a lot. That's not something I'd blame Bethsoft for. It's basically s- happens.

Watched the new apes movie. As always, good movie, but ... as always, it feels like something is missing. Or something is off. Like.. they have this super cool premise, and the movies aren't even short, but somehow it feels like they are rushing through it? Don't know how to describe it. That said...

You just reminded me that I never finished Hong Kong. For some reason this did not click with me at all. Loved Dragonfall tho.

It's not. This stuff will keep on going for a while.

Thing is, they will just keep on slowly eroding everything. Even if they won't succeed in the next 2 years, maybe they will in 10. At this point it's just a matter of time unless there's some big reverse shift in politics happening, imo.

How does gamepass work? You can't install mods on those games?

This is not going to end well.

Damnit, for a while now I have that idea of making a chill solarpunk style game and now suddenly all of those titles release which kinda dip into exactly the same atmosphere...

Maybe. Only issue is that whenever this happens, a crapton of people die in the process.

The difference is that, imo, right now it is far worse in the US than anywhere else since there's so many elements effectively working against democracy, while in Europe it's still "just" a few political parties. And as cheesy as it sounds, I think the US is still far more important to be in line. At the end of the day, the US has a ripple effect on other countries. Our people just imitate what you guys are doing. Basically, if the US goes to ****, we will follow.

Media is so biased against Biden it's not even funny anymore. He speaks a wrong word and everyone loses their ****, Trump rambles complete nonsense for half an hour and everyone is ok with it. People are so damn dumb.

That Gothic 1 Remake demo was so incredibly bad. If you know about the Half-Life 2 Cinematic Mod, the changes in the G1 remake felt like it got inspired by that. Wouldn't hold my breath about that new studio either. From what I've read the past few days, those people were pretty much the reason why later PB titles kinda sucked. No clue how much truth is in that ofc, but well... their latest titles weren't that great.

"Founder | CEO | Chief Creative Officer at Hinterland " Ooof, Hinterland, who made The Long Dark? They are the last to throw stones on that theme.

Isekais are at least as bad as superhero multiverse storylines. I'm so sick of video games in anime. Can they do something new?

Last game I've played from them was Risen 2 and it was... ok-ish at best. So I guess this development was inevitable. They lost their edge years ago.

tbh sounds like skill issue It really wasn't that hard?

Jeez I just saw that Phantom Liberty slander. The addon is amazing and I'd say in total I like it more than the main game. Good quests, good verticality in the level design, interesting characters, nice visuals. The criticized linear sequences are just the intro chapter, after that you're in the usual open world and can do whatever.

Playing any Souls game without a gamepad is just madness.

Dolemite Is My Name was just crazy. That movie brought his name back on my radar instantly. Hadn't thought of him in like a million years before that.

One thing that turns me off a little bit is maybe(?) the art style again. Same situation as with Outer Worlds, something about it just feels off to me. Somehow there is a really high contrast between the colors? Kinda hope it's just the screenshots I've seen so far.

Just pay him money and it's a done deal. This guy is not for the US, but for Trump and Trump only. Let's be real, he would sell out everyone around him in a heartbeat as long as he gets something out of it.

Watched it as well. Thought it was okish, but probably will never see again. Then again, was never that big on the Beverly Hills Cop movies anyways.
