I saw him in my mates house the other day kissing a mirror? He said he is the only person he can kiss in the mirror or something.

That’s awesome. And to think, it’s only slightly less inhospitable in Australia!

There's quite a lot that can be gleaned from the depots for the game on steamdb: https://steamdb.info/app/1422450/depots/

I don't know if this information is already public but here are a couple of quick inferences I made by looking a the files. I'm not overly familiar with Valve's intellectual properties so I don't recognize any specific characters or franchises.

There's likely a hero named Yamato who has the abilities:

  • Shadow Form
  • Power Stance
  • Infinity Slash
  • Healing Slash
  • Flying Strike

There's a lot more hero information but that's the top one in the depots.

The game might be called "Citadel", or it may have just been called that internally at Valve.
The reason I suspect that is because of there appears to be a game folder called "citadel" which appears to be the main game folder.

arefx,

The game was called citadel and was half life themed, they dropped that for neon prime and made it Sci fi, they then dropped that aesthetic changed the name to deadlock and went to a supernatural early to mid 1900s NYC noir aesthetic. A lot of the files still use the citadel name, but it’s just leftover and means nothing anymore.

125hrs in the game over the last 6 weeks, it’s great.

Meanwhile, Australia is down there like “WTF mate?”

milicent_bystandr,

Nah, no one likes lives in that part of Australia. Pluto sitting there just means drivers from Perth to Sydney have to take a little detour.

I mean, I’m pretty sure you’d be able to see it from everywhere in Australia, so I bet many of them would be like “WTF?” But they’ll be dead soon. Fuckin’ kangaroos.

TIL australia has hydrostatic equilibrium.

lugal, do astronomy w Size Comparison: Pluto and Australia

Still, the surface area is much bigger. Pluto is a real continent

Uebercomplicated,

Discreetly insulting both Australia and Pluto in one sentence! Absolutely love this; will share it with all my Australia and Plutonian friends! If Earth gets attacked, it’s not my fault, but yours :'P

NigelFrobisher,

If Australia attacks Earth you’ll know you’ve been attacked.

zerofk,

Australians can’t attack Earth, they’d fall right up into the sky without some reverse-reverse-gravity system.

I’m digging the way the map shows Tasmania as part of the continental plate.

Piemanding,

Is it on purpose or is it because of ocean depth?

niktemadur,

The light blue part is shallow and when it’s underwater, they call it “continental shelf”.
Tasmania and mainland Australia are connected by the same, shared continental shelf.

Pluto is still a sphere, this is an unfair comparison because Pluto hasn’t been unwrapped

UnderpantsWeevil,
@UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world avatar

It’s actually 4π*(0.5*(length-of-australia))^2 bigger than that.

doctordevice,

Fun fact: the surface area of Pluto is only about 4% larger than Russia.

RandomVideos,

So thats why Russia wanted to expand

  1. I feel like Steam has gotten rid of the invite thingy, because I can clearly see the “Buy Now” button.
  2. I don’t have VR 🥲

Nvm, I was looking at the wrong game. Doesn’t look even close to a Third Person Shooter. More like an Inside the Person Shooter

@HarriPotero@lemmy.world avatar

The sheer amount of games available today probably makes it hard to get into many of the older gems. Hell, even I have a 30 year backlog.

I think everyone should explore:

  • The Secret of Monkey Island (1, 2 and return)
  • Loom
  • Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis
  • Street Rod
  • Prince of Persia
  • The Incredible Machine
  • Pokémon yellow/red/blue
  • Chrono Trigger
  • Worms
  • Mega Man II
  • TMNT: Turtles in Time
  • Diablo II
  • Burnout 3/legends/takedown
  • Skyrim

Crono Trigger is a real gem for an early SNES RPG. Highly recommend.

msage,

There are so many ‘Prince of Persia’ games that you need to add a year to be more specific.

HarriPotero,
@HarriPotero@lemmy.world avatar

So they finally made a sequel?

I’m thinking about the 1989 version. There’s many ports, but DOS/Amiga/Macintosh are all good. Even the C64 port is great.

mrvictory1,

Would you recommend a ssoecific Worms game for PC? I have “Worms” (that’s the whole game title) on PS3 which has modern 2D graphics but idk which edition to get on Steam to get a similar experience, there are so many games.

HarriPotero,
@HarriPotero@lemmy.world avatar

Just Worms that got all the ports.

I haven’t tried the 2007 version that you speak of, but it might be good. I’ve played a couple of rounds of WMD on my switch, and as I recall the gameplay was similar.

Of course, you need one or three friends in your couch to pass the controller around to to get the full experience.
