As a 3D animator, I can confidently tell you we routinely act out the part and film ourselves for reference, usually under multiple angles and over multiple takes.
Sid Meiers Alpha Centuri, it’s the best 4x game of its era and is a perfect example of how well games from the 90s can play, in many ways it feels like a modern game made with severe technical limitations. Today the graphics are outright bad (they weren’t exactly jaw dropping at the time either), and the UI lacks a couple of modern sensibilities and QOL features but everything else is top notch.
Deus ex human revolution: explores a meta narrative of how you use power in computer games. Your character has incredible capability. You could obliterate every enemy with ease. It's a completely different game if you try to avoid killing those who are just getting by (sure a security guard will shoot you, but they are expecting lethal terrorists). You use the power you have to avoid killing, not to make it easy.
Shadow of the Colossus was such a landmark game. The few little changes to the standard video game formula combined together just made for an absolute masterpiece.
It’s the only visual novel I’ve ever played, but it excels so much at it. The writing, worldbuilding, characters, narrator, and overall “vibe” are fantastically superb. It’s also another one of those games that I can’t help but play for ~5 hours nearly every day until I finish it. I’m no video game connoisseur, so you can find more sophisticated reviews elsewhere. You can pick it up on GOG for like €10 half of the time.
It’s so deep abd so complicated, and blurs the line between literary and mechanical so expertly, that i cannot explain it without spoiling it.
Its very good, very literary, and about solving a murder. Your skills are your character’s inner monologue, and they’re all useful, but ypure kind of choosing what clues and what sort of language you get them in, how you interact with and literally read the world.
So play it, play it without reading anything else about it, and when picking skills, go with what you respond to or what character you want your detective to be. ‘Phillip marlowe’ ‘sherlock holmes’ and ‘dirk gently’ are pretty close to the three pre-sets.
Interestingly, the exploration and strategic planning you use in stargazing is a lot like what you need in the B9 Game scanning the skies or game map, locking on to targets, and discovering new challenges. Whether you're navigating constellations or game levels, it's all about observation and timing.
Makes me wonder if Echo Project will have to worry about any of their games. Echo itself doesn’t have explicit sexual content, but it does have violence involving minors, kidnapping, torture, and suggestions of rape.
