Yeah if you needed high safety rating that was a pita. Although I remember if you were by a river you could just build a bridge and mini-wall off the far side of the bridge, then draw walls around your actual city to the edge of the river on the other side (had to go to the water, not a river-rock). That counted. And there were a lot of buildings (farms and such) that most of the time you didn't have to wall off, but I don't remember if you had to wall in almost every single thing (farm workers included) for 100 safety.ย 

Once you have cash rolling in you can wall off practically the entire map sometimes, leaving several edge tiles open for invading armies to spawn, but that just gets silly.

Dune (logo read like DUNC) Spice wars is ok so far, went through tutorials, so doing a learning game for now.ย  Gone back to Overwatch 2, I miss the loot boxes, at least I'd get occasional skins, going DPS and essentially throwing - I will try but I am awful so the team fails.ย  But at least I get to giggle at the people raging.

I never gave much thought to the pronunciation of Dune with or without a hidden 'y', but hearing it a few times lately and all I can see in my mind's eye is "Doon". I'm no linguist but it kinda feels American. Is it?

In UK English, it's unequivocally not "Doon" and can be either dju:n or dส’u:n, the latter essentially being a homophone with June. In North American English, it can be either "Doon" or dju:n.

Bear in mind that this pertains to the language as it's described in written sources, and as everyone knows, by the time language gets described in written sources, it has already changed.

Goblin Stone.

A nice, bit more cheery version of Darkest Dungeon. Goblins don't level up, but if they die they give souls which you can use develop the goblin's den and make them all a little bit stronger.

I have today one day off at work, so just before my lunch, I have started to play Encased, which I have bought yesterday on sale on GOG. Got through the character creation and traveled by the lift ๐Ÿ˜›

It looks like it will be pretty text heavy game. For now, I have a guy with max Charisma and very high Psyche and Intellect and I am member of the Silver Wing. But I have a very big urge to restart the game with the Woodpecker pregen, which has 2 Intellect, despite being the member of the white wing ๐Ÿ˜„

Dragon's Dogma 2

That was dishonest and downright shameful of Capcom to have the online shop conspicuous in its absence in review copies only to release the game with an online shop. They are not the first to do so, I'm sure they won't be the last, but it needs to be called out when it happens, that's for sure. I'm not a lawyer so I have no idea if there's any sort of legal recourse that can be taken, but from a moral standpoint that's blatant purposeful dishonesty and should be punishable in some way.

Anyway, controversy aside, the game is a freakin' blast so far. The combat is great and the pawns have some of the best companion AI I have ever seen. You have 4 commands you can issue them: Go, wait, to me, and help. The pawns have personalities, albeit ones that fall neatly into a small number of categories, and thus they will respond differently to your commands, so the first thing you should do after hiring pawns is to learn how they react. They'll point stuff out to you "look, a treasure chest, we should figure out how to get up there", they'll lead you to locations if they know where it is, it's a really great system.

I just started so I obviously can't tell you yet whether the game is purposely made to entice players to buy items with real money. I mean, you don't put in a monetization system without also taking steps to steer the player toward said monetization system. Time will tell how pressured I wind up feeling to spend money in the online shop (I won't), I'll report back once I'm much deeper into the game.

That game had so much potential. Completely ruined for me by the extremely stupid rest/healing. Devs who's approach to development is "lulz we iz hardcore lulz" deserve a punch on the nose.

I can't remember any issues with resting/ healing but I didn't like the loot/ experience system being linked as there was just far too much trivial loot.

Encased was clearly a very high effort game, though they'd equally obviously done certain things one way because that was different from how others had done them. Which would be great, if the old way wasn't done as it was for a good reason.

Sigh, I am stuck at battle simulator. I would like to attempt a pacifist run, but I am unable to get over the battle simulator without killing the "images". Anyone has an advice how that can be done? Or to skip? :(

Dragon's Dogma 2 is ****ING AWESOME. The combat feels so good; it's chaotic, visceral, has great feedback, plus nothing says badass like climbing up the back of a cyclops and stabbing it in the neck while it's trying to fling you off and a mage is blasting it with fire. Then to top it off, after a thrilling 10 minute long battle with a cyclops your pawns will high five or fist bump you, it's the best. I also like that there are climbing and platforming puzzles to get to hidden treasure chests, those are fun.

For anyone picking this game up, keep in mind that this game has timed quests. Not all of them, mind you, but there are timed quests. It's pretty obvious which quests are timed. For example, if a guard tells you that one of the rookies is out on patrol and they just got word of harpy activity in that area but he can't abandon his post to aid the rookie and you accept going to find the rookie and helping him out, if you instead go do something else for half the day you may find a dead body when you finally find the rookie. It's probably not a good idea to just pick up every single quest in a town all at once, that's a recipe for failing some of them.

7.5 hours in I can confidently say that Dragon's Dogma 2 is the current front runner for GotY, I don't even need to wait to find out if they stick the landing. It's been 7.5 hours of pure, unadulterated, military grade bliss. I can't get over how ****ing awesome the combat is and how great the pawn system is. The thing is, this game breaks no new ground, the original Dragon's Dogma is the game that broke the ground, all the systems were put in place in that game, but they were kinda jank. In this game all that stuff is refined and upgraded.

I mean, I was walking along a path following a hired pawn that was leading me to a quest location. I was a little tense but still feeling good as I was fairly weighed down (weight is VERY important in this game) and beat up and I was out of camping kits, but the 3rd and final objective for a quest was nearby, so rather than head back to the city I decided to press on. I ran into a small group of saurians, under ideal circumstances this would be easy peasy, but when sorta beat up it makes the battle more tense. Just as our party was dispatching the last saurian I heard and felt the sound of rumbling rapidly approaching. I turn and a freakin' ogre is charging me! Ogres in this game are not slow and lumbering, they are VERY fast and explosive. My desperate bid to outrun the ogre failed and it snatched me up and carried me off to create distance between myself and my companions.ย 

2054970-20240322191030-1.png

The ogre then began slobbering on me as it prepared to presumably eat me.

2054970-20240322191130-1.png

What other game can this happen in? I'm not talking about a cutscene, everything I described was emergent dynamic gameplay. That $#!+ was wild! I was panicking as this ogre was running off with me then preparing to bite my head off.ย :o

Stuff like this just happens in this game. It's not scripted, it just happens dynamically. I'll be fighting some goblins when a griffon happens to fly by and think to itself "you know, I could go for a snack" and suddenly the battle turns into something else entirely.

Caesar4 - I think the biggest advantage it has as a city builder is that (I think) population doesn't age, in terms of available labor aging itself out of the workforce. In C3, after about 10 game years your workforce seemed to age almost overnight and suddenly you didn't have enough workers on a massive scale, even if your population # was the same. There were ways to mitigate/fix it but its a limit you had to remember re: taking too long or on freeplay maps. It's also nice in C4 to be able to have houses here but put industry buildings on the other side of the map if you want, because walker-employment access isn't a thing.

Still, C3 is the much better game. C4's pace can also feel tons slower (downtimes) and I still dislike its early 3d map size/building size/other restrictions etc.

The holograms seem to count towards human kills (at least one of the guides says so), but a full pacifist/stealth run should take about 4-5 hours when you do only critical path and know exactly what you are doing (there is a step-by-step guide on Steam written and tested by me).

Death of a Wish. Defeated 3 out of 4 main bosses. So far so good, though I liked the silent MC in Lucah more.

A cut-scene. Happens to all MCs sometime, but still annoying.

Kicked off Horizon Forbidden West on pc...

I have to admit, starting it up and it going into Lance Reddick's narration of "what had gone before" was a weird emotional gut punch.

Thank you for the advice, I have already seen it, but did not knew it was your guide :)ย 

The issue is, that I wanted to attempt pacifist run, right out of the bag, without the knowledge of these critical path, and didnโ€™t knew I would get stuck so soon, because I thought, I will be able to talk out of everything, like in most of the different games ๐Ÿ˜žย And the battle simulator proved me wrong right at the start of the game. I do not want to restart the game, I never do this when I play my first playthrough, out of stubbornness to see how far I can get with suboptimal build. But I ma pretty sure my build is not trash this time, I just have not expected, that you will have to invest heavily into combat skills, if you want to go non-lethal way ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

ย 

so it looks like, I haveย to find a way, how to skip the battle training altogether. Is that even possible?

Anyway,

Spoiler

the key person to achieve this, is Anna Leroy, but she allows you to skip all the tutorials, which is not the optimum solution for that, but for now, it has to suffice. Unfortunately, there is no way how to persuade the Black Wing guy in charge of Battle Simulator :(

But overall the game getsย  a 53/100 on theย  globally endorsedย  " BruceVC game rating system ",ย  many peopleย  may be surprised by its lowย  scoreย  but anything over 50 is still fun andย  hasย  someย  worthwhileย  mechanics ...itsย  just notย  a great game and thereย  is lotsย  ofย  repetition. But one distinctive positive is theย  music, itsย  evocative. They selectedย  ย really applicable backgroundย  ย music for the main partsย  ofย  the gameย ย 

Beforeย  I uninstallย  it I decided toย  play a DLCย  called Hoursย  of Darknessย  which is setย  in Vietnam and itsย  great fun

ย 

I amย  nowย  also playing Hogwarts,ย  early days andย  I am justย  onย  the firstย  classesย  in the Academy but I can tell its going to be good experiences and I do enjoy the lore that existsย  in theย  Harry Potterย  universeย 

I have loadedย  some recommendedย  mods and Imย  looking forwardย  to my Hogwartsย  journeyย ๐Ÿง™โ€โ™‚๏ธ

I met the criteria for the first ending in my first GOG playthrough of Encased: A Sci-Fi Post-Apocalyptic RPG. Do not click, if you plan to play it with no walkthrough ๐Ÿ˜„

Spoiler

I had a โ€œgeniusโ€ idea of trying out a comfy coffin on display at Concord Station Terminal. I have to say, it was really comfortable and I have enjoyed the quietness inside. Unfortunately, it was completely soundproof, so soon, I was transported to local crematorium, but at least, I got an achievement for it ๐Ÿ˜„ .
