Stalker Anomaly is available to download for free on moddb.com, and its actually a modded version of the original games. but GSC has allowed them to redistribute the game for free.
I’ve just been replaying it again since it was included in gamepass - already have hundreds of hours racked up between PC & Switch.
Definitely my favourite roguelite. And the soundtrack is so good. Haven’t tried Exit since I heard bad things, and I never really got to the point where I’d fully completed the first. But that teaser got me super pumped.
Yeah I love the first one. Also have hundreds of hours on it. I think the only things I’ve not unlocked are from the secret boss fight that is different from the others.
Exit was pretty terrible. It felt like a gimmicky cash grab.
That’s just cherrypicking. Yes some people will review bomb. Others will make fake positive reviews to counteract people review bombing a game for being too “woke”.
In the end the only thing that even could matter is how people in aggregate work - and that’s easy to account for, you just readjust the distribution to be more spread out to get the “true” score of things.
This video seems more like clickbait than anything. I’m finding it hard to find anything worthwhile to engage with here even from a high level.
What you mean? Have you seen all those articles publisher website just giving out 8-9 on every damn game they get early access to?
If they give worse, they proboly just lose theyre early access and ye, they get less income.
Same with negative reviews, Dragon age 2 isnt the perfect game, but an alright game, but since it has no binary person in it, millions just hate reviewed it. Proboly the same happening with favorite games company publish a game they just love, so they automatically review good about it.
Alot of people looking for a good game, and no one knows anymore who you can trust, and then its just comes down to marketing, who can just randomly takes customers without making a good game.

this has been an issue people have complained about in gaming journalism for–and i cannot stress this sufficiently–longer than i’ve been alive, and i’ve been alive for 25 years. so if we’re going by this metric video gaming has been “ruined” since at least the days of GTA2, Pokemon Gold & Silver, and Silent Hill. obviously, i don’t find that a very compelling argument.
if anything, the median game has gotten better and that explains the majority of review score inflation–most “bad” gaming experiences at this point are just “i didn’t enjoy my time with this game” rather than “this game is outright technically incompetent, broken, or incapable of being played to completion”.
Honestly, I would totally move to GOG, however my entire games collection is on Steam, so it would be very very difficult and it’s rather tedious to have and use 2 platforms like that.
Oh well, I do hope they can get more people onto their platform. it’s a better Epic store for sure.
I honestly felt the same. Then I thought, eh, let’s just try. Turns out I don’t care about my library being split. I just add desktop icons for the games I’m playing and launch them from there without thinking about what platform it’s on.
Last game I played from GOG was Disco Elysium which worked perfectly on the Deck. Most of the original team were pushed out of the studio during a hostile takeover, so can’t really recommend to buy right now.
How well does KCD II run on the Deck? I’ll take 60fps over visual fidelity any day, but sometimes it’s simply not possible.
I haven’t ever been too picky with FPS when playing on the Steam Deck, so I’m not the best to ask. They have optimized it far more than the first KCD. And to me? It ran beautifully.
What even is Doom anymore? It used to be a marine shooting demons on mars with a shotgun. Now it’s some mythological fantastical fever dream bullshit where you ride dragons and execute perfectly timed combos against alien God things. It might be fun but it’s certainly NOT Doom anymore.
Is this serious? Every Doom game has involved going to hell and fighting Demons from hell in space and such. You know, a mythological place and mythological creatures and insane situations that are clearly fantasy.
They changed the type of place and creatures slightly. This isn’t really a stretch for the series.
You could argue that Doom was always more fantasy focused than sci if, but it doesn’t really matter. Doom doesn’t need to be about the same thing forever. They already had some fantasy/medieval vibes with enemies like marauders, those awesome swords, and some of the visual designs of the areas. I think they saw that it worked and decided to expand on it.
IMO, it probably always needs to be about high-octane demon killing. If it stays true to that, it can still be called Doom.
I have supported GoG for quite some years. I don’t understand why they keep pivoting different things to do.
This may be an unpopular opinion, but I would support paying for the initial game as well as every major patch when a new OS came out. Say, they do something to make a game work on Win 11. One year later we have Win 12 so I don’t mind paying a little for the patch. Then one year later we have Win 13 and I’m willing to pay again if I still play the game.
I would also support paying for online servers for games that have multiplayer components. That takes money to maintain.
As others mentioned, GoG should stop wasting time on a launcher. Hell, even the installer. Just ZIP the whole thing for me to download.

If the developers were interested in allowing people to keep the servers running, they’d just give us the server code like they used to. If I was in charge of a GOG that was a little more flush with capital, I might fund an easy drop-in replacement library for Steam’s multiplayer APIs so that developers can easily port their games to GOG and be playable, in multiplayer, offline.
