  • A glimpse into the past before #SailsOfWar: Ancient Naval Combat (Mount and Blade)
    @JokerZida me and @DracoTarot were recently talking about the lack of games set in proper Dark Ages. This one is not set there as well if it is in the mid-16th century, but I want to ask, what time period is the game covering, exactly? As you mentioned, by the 16th century, naval canons were... see more
  • Check out Doom: The Dark Ages New Gameplays!
    @DracoTarot Back on the subject of DOOM though, I've read that Digital Foundry was very impressed by the graphics and how the surrounding objects are destructible and that is reflected in visuals. But here is the less positive bit: the soundtrack, according to them, is not as good as it was in... see more
  • New gameplay from The Precinct 🔥
    @miskkie procedurally generated may not mean repetitive, or even if it does, hopefully it will not drag on. I mean, XCOM was procedurally generated outside of stories too, but it had measures in place to keep it interesting. Maybe something like this would be here as well. see more
  • New gameplay from The Precinct 🔥
    @JokerZida I like how they switched accent from overall management that is usually the case like in This Is The Police where you play as a force chef, to more of grunt work. Hopefully, it will allow them to tell more personal stories. see more
  • Nintendo rasing games prices to 90$
    @JokerZida I know that Shuhei Yoshida wanted to see more new game announcements. see more
  • Steam Spring Sale has started!
    @Telomina It is interesting, that the whole streamer and influencer industries evolved during our time, there were none when I was little. So we get to see how it changes and how lurkit and the like appear and change or not change their requirements, and more people get into streaming. Interesting... see more
  • Farewell Game Informer...
    Thank you @ZaidH for reminding me about this: although this thread initially started as a Farewell to the Game Informer, we have joyous news: it has returned: A good day for gaming journalism 🙂 see more
  • Epic Games Store Free Game 6 - 13 March!
    @DracoTarot Learning Japanese may be harder, but more useful in the long run, you can use it for stuff other than watching anime 😉 Really? I thought it was normal to have this thing with hearing if you're using headphones while eating. I may need to have that checked out now... I usually watch... see more
  • Steam is having the NEXT FEST!
    @DracoTarot Ah well, remasters are not the same. System Shock or RDR got lucky to have good ones, but GTA III or the recent Rise of the Ronin were less lucky. It may come down to various factors on a case-by-case basis. Nor is mine, I have one of the few smartphones in existence with a physical... see more
  • Check out Doom: The Dark Ages New Gameplays!
    @DracoTarot To be fair, many interesting parts of history happened after the Dark Ages, there is limited material to work with there from a historical viewpoint, at least, in Europe. Things like the Fall of Constantinople, Wars of the Roses and The Black Death happened after. When it comes to Dark... see more
  • Do you prefer bigger or smaller games?
    @DracoTarot Oh, I would not say that, some series do a decent job of adhering to the source material, though it happens quite rarely, admittedly. I think Happy is the one I liked most in that regard (1st season, that is). But generally, assessing how well a series followed source material is part... see more
  • SaGa Frontier 2 got a remaster!
    @GoLLuM13 Fair enough. Maybe that style also makes it more entertaining for your niece to watch, if she does that? see more
  • EGS is having a Spring Sale!
    @ChristianRasmussen We all are. Though I did end up spending this time too... see more
  • Steam is having the Storyteller's Festival 2025!
    @DracoTarot I don't know much about visual art, but I like the ones with food. I like food 😅 see more
  • Give your voice to the Great Old One: for Lovecraft and Sinking City fans!
    @DracoTarot Hopefully something like this will come around again. see more
  • SaGa Frontier 2 got a remaster!
    @GoLLuM13 Which one do you prefer? Personally, I like more realistic visuals better, but that's me. Cartoonish ones break the immersion for me somewhat, like even in epic stories, this style lowers the stakes. Something like that... see more
  • A week left until BAFTA 2025!
    @GoLLuM13 That sounds complicated 😅 see more
  • Epic Games Store Free Game 3-10 April!
    @miskkie it may be good to stock up, for when the right mood strikes 😉 see more
  • Epic Games Store Free Game 3-10 April!
    @Telomina Ah, well, at least you'll have part two if you grab it. Bigger and better part 1 😊 Infinity Nikki...got your hands on a pre-release again? 😉 see more
  • SaGa Frontier 2 got a remaster!
    @GoLLuM13 That's fair. We can hope for a friendly competition between them, who knows, there may even be some collabs, maybe? What about the visuals? I can see that they are very comparable, but without first-hand experience, it is hard to grasp the difference. To me, WuWa seems just a bit... see more
