Eh, he doesn't sound like he understood the game? Or the genre. It is a base building game a la Dungeon Keeper. You build, so you can build more cool stuff and have build something great that works more or less. Like Anno or Caesar games. What kind of criticism is "You defeat all opponents the same way, by having your minions beat them up or through traps" ? It is like complaining that in a first person shooter you shoot opponents instead of challenging them to poker or match 3 games for variety. The game may still end up being too shallow. The original was rather shallow and mostly grabbed people through theme. But this review hasn't given me anything to consider. The fact that minions sent out to the world do not come back, that sounds a bit sad - though I'll have to see if it is actually the case and they changed the system or whether he just didn't notice that minions can be lost but aren't always (just as in the first game).

Losing the will to play what you are playing? You could just play Troubleshooter. Or wait until tomorrow and play Evil Genius 2.

GMG shows the release date as 25th May

Tried out This Is The Police, but the first impression was rather negative. A lot of narration interrupted with short bits of clicking. Starting the car in the morning (which I guess is a fancy load screen) feels as if it takes longer than the actual gameplay. So I am uninstalling. I don't feel the need to see that car starting animation a fourth time.

My Steam activity feed shows people buying and playing Subverse for the first time. They probably got it for the articles...

The only news that matters:

Like Mass Effect 2 being present when my motherboard fried.

Hurlshot enjoyed it. I enjoyed it. Some random person on Steam hated it. All criteria met for being rated excellent.

And they said it was the Sierra games you can die in...

I started Vampire the Masquerade: Redemption. Sadly the brightness is messed up for Win10, so I can't see anything in the first dungeon.

You play Troubleshooter, your opinion has merit

Hacking the obsidian forum to inject non Valheim content: 3Dprinting party members

You turned into sand in hopes of making Sand like you?

That moment when you realize you forgot to check this thread before buying a game.

One of the DLC added undead, which means a vampire, his thralls, his Igor, and zombies and ghouls

Have to decide which path to take in Fate of Atlantis - solo puzzle, Sophia, solo fisticuffs.

It never drew me in the same way as Birthright did.

Back to business as usual. What is fresh and was just posted on youtube? What shows you a slice of (your) paradise?

Use the money for something meaningful. For example buy all your team's fans a copy of Troubleshooter to keep out of trouble between games. Explain it as a measure to combat hooligan violence.

Yes, but for some reason disks were labeled in inches. Probably because IBM had one level to use everywhere.

It did give us Steven Heck though "Do you copy?" "Like a floppy!" Imagine that sentence having floppy replaced with Cloud Drive, Remote Server, Dropbox, GoogleDrive, Megasharefileboxdirectonlinedownloadfreestoragehavingprovenyouarehumanwhatever

In Greece we just called them by size. So that was a three-and-a-halfer disk.

Turns out I needed a new PC

This is the first patch I ever got. But most of us didn't know what a patch was. And depending on our country we may not have had access to them even if we knew about them.
