Don't worry there is hope still with ARK 2 I mean they can always triple down on storage usage? :rolleyes:

Meanwhile Valheim is like I use 640KB after compression.

SN2716057 · Jul 4, 2022

A lot of FH5 on my 4k tv, no screenshots alas. And playing some dusting, never touched games like Game of Thrones (which hasn't aged well) on my sig rig.

Yeah its brilliant when you download some indie that sits under 1GB total from Steam, you can get that nostalgic 'Let's get a coffee and I can play' vibe from it. And then it all just works, too. A typical less is more situation

Also makes you appreciate developer work, there is a strange kind of talent in building something efficient.

F.E.A.R is one of those games which holds up incredibly well to this date. I can not believe they made enemies crawl, sneak, lean, shoot while running backwards, shoot without exposing body, flip, evade, slide, kick, punch, jump from above, climb, stomp, backward-kick and whatever TF trick comes up the imagination - i just don't see this kind of stuff nowdays, and that was done in 2005/2007...

Yep. F.E.A.R was a game-AI masterclass. GOAP was GOAT!

Started Life is Strange again in years. I'm already in love as I know that it's a 5+/5 game. :love:

Hah! My boss at work (been using computers longer than me) was telling me about the 40MB
HDD he bought and would "never fill that up!"

TB the new MB.

"Hello darkness my old friend, you've come to greet me once again..."

Ahh, that is the song that plays as the Valkyries appear. They say ravens tend to appear where Valkyries roam. What they don't tell you is that the ravens are the size of their dinosaur ancestors, and probably about as aggressive. Also, the universe as we know it has been deprived of death, so you can greet that darkness again, and again, and again. The in-game term for your transformation is 'raw meat dumpling' and your Valhalla will be a goofy sentient clay pot filled with the remains of other dead-but-still-existing warriors. If you're lucky, you'll at least go into a BIG clay pot, instead of the usual tiny ones, which hold just two gallons of you, at most. I don't know if there's mead in there. I would hope it is at least a component in the solution.

I'm getting closer to becoming a proper battle mage now. Honestly, the sorcery is secondary, as powerful as it is. Though the cast speed does help. The show-stealers with dex/int are decidedly the weapons. No squishy mages in Elden Ring - you still need Vigor and ranged attacks are far more situational. But that's okay because you have epic mad MAGGIQ SOWADS with nasty scaling. Yeayea... yougetfastercastingwithdexandall... but, SOWADS

I have a feeling Faith/Arcane is the secret master build though... the forbidden combo. 1001 ways to stack damage and proc status. I'm pretty sure there are no challenges in this game that aren't more than adequately covered by something available through one of those two stats.

I enjoyed all 4 Crysis games a lot back then, apparently they are working on a new one, which was great news for me.

I mean, usually I like to smash every pot I see in a game, but in this one sometimes they spin around and smack the crap out of you... and if you do smash *those* pots, this sticky, semi-translucent blood slurry splashes everywhere. Whether or not this makes it the 'wrong game' in which to 'swing'em all' is somewhat up for debate. It's arguable that one simply must swing them all, to avoid the pots. It's a lot of swinging to be doing with just one sword.

Ruru · Jul 4, 2022

Crying. I hope I don't spoil anything but prevented Kate's suicide on Life is Strange. :love:

and ep2 done.

Same here, I am a total explorer. Search everywhere, break all the things!

robot zombie said:

Yeah, that sucks. Most games are not like that...

robot zombie said:

I wouldn't call it "wrong", it's up to individual gamer to decide for themselves. For me, such a game mechanic isn't a dealbreaker and really doesn't annoy me unless it's excessive.

I still would and have broke all the things.
