Good video! Slightly annoying that it’s one of those “group channels” with multiple creators uploading. I’d like to subscribe to this guy but then I’ll get a bunch of other random videos I don’t care for :(
The only AAA games I’m looking at are ones released 5+ years in the past. Grabbed a lot more indies closer to launch. So glad Timberborn and shapez 2 made it here.
I’m intrigued but I’m super intimidated by the rhythm game sections you show. I don’t want to go full Nigel but can you tell me something that will make me not have a panic attack looking at the huge filled fret board in the trailer?
As much as I’d love a sale, the game is really quite tough. My partner was/is streaming it on twitch, she’s a moderately good gamer and she spent probably an hour on one of the mid stage duets.
I do have “Less Hard” as a difficulty setting that drops the notes you saw in the trailer, probably in half. And if people really want an “Even Less Hard” mode, I can add that in probably a day or two.
A cross platform option would be Power ISO. It has an option for the bin/cue format CD games are in and I’ve used it on Linux. It can also do ISO for DVD games
I tried power ISO earlier though it came up with an error when ripping the game. I also tried k3b at the start which works for ps2 games but it was unable to rip ps1 games.
It’s an exceptional game, IF you can stomach the gameplay loop. Some might describe it as a walking simulator, a beautiful one, but a walking simulator nonetheless.
It also has some great story telling, but the gameplay loop won’t change, so if you find that too boring, it might not be a game for you.
I’m gonna be that guy and say that death stranding isnt a walking simulator by definition, walking simulators as a genre are more like visual novels meanwhile death stranding id more call a hiking simulator about the logistics of going from A to B.
I’d say death stranding is more like euro truck simulator on foot than it is stanley parable.
Other than that pretty much my thoughts on the game.
I LOVE that description, and I completely agree. What I’ve noticed though, with people that do not enjoy the game, that they’ve all labeled it as a walking simulator.
You weren’t lying. I was looking for “knowledge” games similar to Animal Well and Outer Wilds and I saw some reviews making the comparison. Tbh, I was a little underwhelmed at first. I thought it was a good game but it didn’t feel like what I was looking for. But the back half really opened it up. Figuring out the mountain door puzzle was like a jaw on the floor moment. By the end I had several pages of graph paper with notes and sketches.
