    KickStarter Homeworld 3 from Blackbird Interactive - coming May 13th

    Played the demo and personally I think it's a disaster. Essentially the only obvious single-player element the demo has is a 20 minute long tutorial ON BASIC CONTROLS. There are two control schemes, the old one and the new one they are trying to push. Every simple thing like zooming, panning...

    Starfield - Epic Shit Takes from Bethestards

    I was genuinely curious how will Bethesda react to an obvious troll award, but it seems that just playing stupid and accepting this as genuine wasn't below their dignity. Shame some codexer's didn't get the point, oh well.

    Starfield - Epic Shit Takes from Bethestards

    Poe's Law at work.

    Incline Colony Ship RELEASE THREAD

    This is really odd. I had a ragdoll glitch over five squares away in final Factory stealth mission, but the body was still lootable only from the square he was killed - explicitly saying it's out of reach when standing on the tile with the body, so it actually seemed that the ragdolls are just...

    Game News Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader Released

    Pretty obvious they pushed it out of the door early to get some xmas sales. Sad, given Owlcat's already bad rep with bugs.

    Game News Dragon Age: Dreadwolf will finally be "fully revealed" in summer 2024

    At this point the only question is which will flop harder - this or Bloodlines 2.

    Game News PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted 2023 - Unforetold: Witchstone, MENACE, Bloodlines 2

    Clever to include Menace trailer among the other trash.

    Incline Colony Ship RELEASE THREAD

    Those interactive chokepoints just like jump/fly in D:OS/BG3 are a poor attempt to simulate exploration by breaking pathfinding - you can see a place but can't reach it just by clicking - forcing manual movement. Has nothing to do with load times, since the map is already loaded as a whole...

    Starfield - Epic Shit Takes from Bethestards

    Yeah, that does seem to be the issue here.

    Incline Colony Ship RELEASE THREAD

    It's a very good game but not better than AoD. Haven't finished it yet (still in Habitat), but I've already dumped over 70h into it checking builds and playthroughs. AoD had those several interlocking quest lines happening at the same time, with player character becoming part of them at...

    The Game Awards 2023 - December 7th

    Tell that to nuXcom. 3/4 of turn-based combat in games released since, use the retarded 2AP system.

    The Invincible - first-person retro future sci-fi thriller based on Stanislaw Lem

    Finished it yesterday. 6h. Sadly I think it's rather meh, and I actually like walking sims (finished most popular ones). It's pretty much Firewatch in space - walk around, talk through radio, read some lore. There are driving sections but they barely differ from walking. The story is virtually...

    Squadron 42 is content complete and in the polishing phase

    And just 9 short years after it was first announced for release in 2014...

    Turn-Based Tactics The Lamplighters League - turn-based tactics in pulp 1930s setting from Harebrained Schemes

    Judging by steam reviews, it's also front loaded as usual, and bugs keep pilng up with time.

    Starfield - Epic Shit Takes from Bethestards

    Even that was Bethesda's blatant copy of BG2's Noober.
