I dunno, I don't think it's supposed to look like this ... I don't think it worked well when it was daylight outside maybe? Did that happen to anyone else, if you were using RT? It's no biggie, just funny/curious. I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man

Hurlshort Posted January 7, 2021 Posted January 7, 2021 I wanted to get into Shrouds of Avatar so badly, but the weird sprawl of player stuff in every town just turned me off. 1
the_dog_days Posted January 7, 2021 Posted January 7, 2021 I play offline which makes the game world weirdly empty.

I still got some good hours out of it playing through the beginning, but it was hard to stay interested in the empty version of the world. It's a shame, I was hoping more for Ultima 7 than UO.
Keyrock Posted January 7, 2021 Posted January 7, 2021 I should try Shroud again. The combat was just so... boring when I played it probably a year and a half ago. RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks

Hurlshort Posted January 12, 2021 Posted January 12, 2021 (edited) Empyrion is amazing and janky at the same time. Still better than No Man's Sky. Edit: The game actually has a pretty solid storyline to follow, which so many of these open world survival crafting games seem to lack. Edited January 12, 2021 by Hurlshot 1

I love the first half of FF8. The ending is real bad though. It's one of those games where it's relatively easy until the last boss and then they are like "oh you didn't prepare for this huge jump in difficulty for the final boss? That's too bad" Edited January 18, 2021 by Theonlygarby 1
