    I dunno, the fact that he likes that art style makes me question his sanity... 😛

    He provides fair criticism later on. I do like the artstyle. I think it looks unique and interesting.

    Glowing reviews all over, although I find too many of them waste time on their nostalgia for the series.  Wonder what the ending is, RPS said it "is going to be a bit metatextual in a way that tiny babies will get cross about" - I guess Thimbleweed Park redux ?

    Big leaks this week  

    GTA 6 - https://www.pcgamer.com/heres-another-alleged-gta-6-leak-this-time-with-video/

    Also 40 mins or so of D4 is leaked - https://www.pcgamer.com/now-diablo-4-test-footage-has-leaked-online/

    I had a chance to watch both leaked GTA6 videos and I must say the game looks excellent 

    The one video has some excellent humor in it

    Yeah, but they've been in development for 10 years, and the internet says they have a staff of 695 people! How much of that funding is really left?

    if most of the 700 are underpaid intern than the salary would likely be less than 150 million

    Wouldn't it be hilarious if by the end of it they announce the game is a monthly subscription.

    pretty sure they will pull a fallout first while in alpha

     

    I'm the enemy, 'cause I like to think, I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech, and freedom of choice. I'm the kinda guy that likes to sit in a greasy spoon and wonder, "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecue ribs with the side-order of gravy fries?" I want high cholesterol! I wanna eat bacon, and butter, and buckets of cheese, okay?! I wanna smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section! I wanna run naked through the street, with green Jell-O all over my body, reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly may feel the need to, okay, pal? I've SEEN the future. Do you know what it is? It's a 47-year-old virgin sitting around in his beige pajamas, drinking a banana-broccoli shake, singing "I'm an Oscar Meyer Wiene"

    Besides running through underground passages with a torch and simple platforming, what do you actually do in this game? Are there enemies to fight, traps to dodge, or puzzles to solve?

    not sure, in their previous game there was combat, not sure about this one tho. I think it will be kinda like Ori

    I was thinking the visuals looked a little strange, as the backgrounds and character animations didn't look like they quite matched each other. The character animations being actual scanned physical embroidery, I will forgive it, because that's rad and I love it (and also, I would say that character animation is the most important bit to do quality animation for in a game like this, so that was a wise choice). No idea if the game will be any good, but I'll wishlist it and wait for its release, hopefully it'll be enjoyable. And hopefully there won't be too much platforming/combat, as these kinds of games tend to miss the mark pretty badly when they go too heavily in that direction.

    Against stupidity we have no defense. Neither protests nor force can touch it. Reasoning is of no use. Facts that contradict personal prejudices can simply be disbelieved - indeed, the fool can counter by criticizing them, and if they are undeniable, they can just be pushed aside as trivial exceptions. So the fool, as distinct from the scoundrel, is completely self-satisfied. In fact, they can easily become dangerous, as it does not take much to make them aggressive. For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.

    Do wonder what the Slavic influence will be.
