Yeah, I went in casually. I had a bad time, died twice, and never knew what was going on. There are better games, IMO, unless you’re really itching to replay ADOM from your youth.
Im seeing Qud make the news rounds. Its overwhelmingly popular on steam, but IMO that’s because it’s only being played by its core audience. If others pick up because they’re seeing it on the news, I think they will be in for a rough time and that rating will reflect that change.
Really? I find that surprising. My experience was that it was keyboard heavy.
You’re being pedantic, but I’m sure you understand the point.
I saw a lot of negative comments in a YouTube thread. I only played the OG once, so perhaps it’s not sacred enough to me, but what I saw looked good.
P.s. when I completed my first playthrough, it was in 2021. My experience is that the original is not as good, now—compared to modern games and storytelling—than rose-colored glasses might suggest.
I had no trouble recognizing him.
More walking simulator less actual gaming.
See… I think it’s kind of a bad game for all the same reasons.
I think I bounce pretty hard off the stated intent to make the player feel the suffering of living through war. I’m not going to play a game that intentionally sets me up to fail.
… I’m shocked. I thought all development on subsonic had dried up. I used it and dsub for literal years, but switched to Plex after it seemed I was paying for nothing. :(
Uncertain software support is why I picked a P8p over that device, even when I prefer it’s hardware over the P8p.
These are true criticisms, but I’m not sure if they’re fair. To the best of my recollection, Steam had none of those things in 2008, either, about the time they were the age of the EGS, now.
You could say they should (be able to) compete on the merits alone, without free games or paid exclusivity, but that argument wouldn’t reflect reality: you need a hefty carrot to lure people away from their comfort zone.
Dave the Diver has lost me at about 8-10 hours. I detest doing chores for underwater people.
The game is entirely too wide and too shallow: it has too much in it but very little depth. Kind of ironic.
Hmmm. I own it but haven’t ever played it. Are there bad controls or other bugs or quirks with the original… You know, something that would justify a remake?
Anything in particular? I’m not great at understanding things that aren’t said.
Probably a desire for someone who is not part of the political machine.
I mean, I’d rather have my parents around in my life and my children’s, than have their money.
Yep. Calling it now: dude is gay.
Which is fine, or would be fine, except for the hypocrisy.
I certainly have much better tools to handle my various hangups, but I have a lot more of them, too.
Wait till over 40. You’ll think your 30s were blissful.
Do you mean Vine? I can tell you a few things about that.
Pedantically, I believe “tactics” are small / short term and “strategics” are big / long term.
