Pathologic

[Grim Monk]

Bought it in the Indie Gala Bundle, but can't play it.

I am getting a really annoying screen jittering when I try to look around while walking.

Had to stop as it was giving me a headache.

First Stalker COP, and now this.
It's almost as if my PC is conspiring to prevent me from playing Eastern European games...

Dunno what the fuck's going on, can't find Stakh Rubin anywhere (at Victor or Greg's) at any time despite being told in my diary to find and warn him.

I think Pathologic is an outright amazing game. I convinced Buck to list it in GB's RPG database years ago, haha. It's not really an RPG, but it's not really an anything. It's just called an "adventure game" because no other label sticks. But identifying it as a C&C-based game as Konjad does is why I have no problems calling it an RPG.

It was a struggle to play yet so worthwhile. It's just an experience. Hard to explain. Not a game I'd like to review myself, Konjad did a really good job, it's a tough game to write about.

Really wish Ice-Pick could do the "Enhanced Edition" type overhaul, with all-new English translations, that they once talked about.

I also enjoyed the Void tho the controls for spells/attacks were way too finicky for me so I couldn't get far into it. Cargo is just mind-blowing weirdness, but was good fun. I dig Ice-Pick Lodge, they make fascinating games.

Got this off GOG.com awhile back, still haven't played though. Seems like the kindda game you either hate or love.

Pathologic for $1 (you also get six crappy games in addition), limit of 10 000 copies and 24h, so get it while you can.

This one really needs to go on Steam.
