Serrano Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Thinking hard about buying telltale sam and max bundle for my sister They're not as good as Sam & Max Hit the Road, but they're still fun and hilarious games. "Hit him where it hurts Sam, right in the-" Yes they're very funny. I think the Tales of Monkey Island had more frequent laugh out loud jokes though, if that's on sale I'd suggest picking it up too.

Zoraptor Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I'd imagine that both Disney (to promote the new movies) and GOG (because they would be most popular and they have a limited title contract) would prefer a lot of Star Wars titles to be released over most other titles. SW is certainly the LucasArtsFilm franchise with the greatest popular resonance and current exposure- even though they also made a lot of sentimental and critical favourites outside of SW as well, especially in the adventure genre. (The three non SW games already released are Sam and Max Hit the Road, Indiana Jones/ Atlantis and The Secret of Monkey Island) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humanoid Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Yeah, aware of the earlier titles, I meant the six released just now, plus the 6 that will be released in a day or two. All twelve being Star Wars. Such a shame. L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malcador Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 I still have my CDs, so will try those to see if they work at all and if the game can play under W7 (it did under XP for me).

Leferd Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 I actually loaned out my disc to a friend and it got cracked. By that time, the game was already out of print. It was a brilliant, ambitious game and the manual and tech/unit poster was old school cool. Too bad I lost the manual as well. 1 "Things are funny...are comedic, because they mix the real with the absurd." - Buzz Aldrin."P-O-T-A-T-O-E" - Dan Quayle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ktchong Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 (edited) Thinking of picking up Papers, Please and Aarklash: Legacy Has anyone played these or recommend them? I own both on GOG. Have not played Papers, Please. I have just returned to playing Aarklash: Legacy. I started playing the game in May of 2014. It was fun for awhile. However, soon after my characters reached the level cap of 20, I lost the motivation to continue playing even though I was near the end of game. (I did not know the game had a level cap so I grinded quite a bit.) The biggest reward and satisfaction of that game was earning levels and skills, and it stopped. The level cap was an extremely bad design decision. Level 20 was such an odd place to set the cap because each character could max out two of their four skill trees, but the third skill tree was left stuck in the middle. I could still re-spec the skill trees at any moment, and frequent re-spec is required to deal with different high-level enemies that have different strengths and weaknesses. However, the constant re-spec became very tiresome. It was such a chore to micro-manage the skill trees for my eight different characters, and to keep switching their skills back and forth for different enemies. At that point the game ceased to be fun. It was just a whole lot of micro-management of skill trees. My last saved game was made on May 30, 2014. So I moved on to playing XCOM: Enemy Within, Dungeon Siege III, Majesty Gold HD, and Tomb Raider. All which I have finished and were fun to play until the very end. Yesterday, (i.e., Friday,) I just returned to Aarklash: Legacy. I will try to force myself to finish the game even though it is no longer fun: my character can no longer gain level, and the micro-management of re-spec'ing skill trees has become very tiresome and annoying. I will have to force myself to finish the game because I am close to the end. The level cap was just a horrible design decision. IMO, the game should have allowed players to max out all four skill trees, (we would still have to make choices because the four skill trees still branch out at various points;) so we could focus on tactical combat and playing the game instead of the endless, pointless micro-managing of skill trees.
