Great post/format. It feels like I’m a kid reading the gaming news magazines at the grocery store again.
I’ve been playing Ori and the Will of the Wisps. I like it and the changes they made since Blind Forest, but I’m also feeling frustrated by repeatedly getting lost, even with quest markers. It’s tiring to waste so much time traversing the map just to find out I have to go back… somewhere else. Never had this problem when playing Blind Forest.
Great game, I remember really digging the Clayface fight. The little clay enemies went down easy, but there were enough that it felt… mushy(?) getting through them to get at Clayface himself.
It’s weird replaying Oblivion but it looks like a modern game. All the original audio is there (along with a few new voices to break up the monotony of hearing the same handful of voices over and over again), and all the locations and gear, but it all feels different. Like it’s very familiar, but it’s still very different from what we remember. Leveling is a bit different this time around as you have seven or so points to divide among your attributes, rather than picking a couple that would get increased by random numbers. I’d recommend trying it if nothing else than to try out the new polished version yourself.
Although some of the jank has been removed from this version, like there are no more items duplication glitches, but the Bound Armor/Weapon glitch works.
Being scammed by Bethesda is bad. I buy indie games, I pirate triple A games to see if it’s worth my money. Usually it’s roughly 3 hours before I remove the junk. Fuck that, they don’t deserve my money. Empty shells, unbalanced bs, bug simulators, dlc hoarding, microtransactions. But if it’s actually good, I buy the game. I just have no more trust in big developers. Maybe except for Rockstar. Blizzard, Bethesda, Ubisoft, EA, they all suck. When they screw me over again and again, they deserve to be pirated. But even for free their games aren’t worth my time. Prove your product is worth it’s money and I’ll happily pay full price. Like Larian studios. Shut up and take my money.
I was being sarcastic, fuck big publishers and big tech (Bethesda is both now), pirate all their shit, and shit on the game online so other people don’t buy it.
Although I’ll admit I couldn’t wait, and bought the remaster as soon as I saw it. Oblivion is a special game for me, and this remaster definitely does not disappoint.
Ah, I expected as much after reading your comment a second time after I already replied.
I spent soooo much time playing Oblivion. I’ve never experienced anything like that before. It was the first game I played on my first self-built pc, the pc my parents had was shit, only for work, no proper gpu. I must have spent at least over a thousand hours playing Oblivion.
But noooooo, Todd Howard won’t get my money!
I don’t know much about pirated games these days, other than that there’s a lot of junk out there. Malware etc. So far I have a great experience with fitgirl repacks so I’m going to wait for a fitgirl release.
I don’t want to pirate but I feel like I have no choice. I stopped downloading games because of Steam. I stopped downloading music because of Spotify. I stopped downloading movies and shows because of Netflix. I feel scammed on Steam, Spotify is a horrible nazi company and Netflix is so fragmented into other streaming platforms that it’s financially not viable to continue watching everything. So back comes the pirate hat. No one provides more service than piracy. I have more rights by pirating because I don’t have to sign any terms of service. Services just limit their customers while making them pay, while forcing them to give up their rights and ownership. Why would I pay for YouTube premium with less rights, freedom and functions than Grayjay or Vanced? I don’t want a car with functions locked behind a paywall and with ads, I’ll boycott the car brand. Fuck big tech.
Have you tried Kingdom Come Deliverance 2? It’s really good and difficult. It’s a history simulator with a really kick ass story and the hero is just a guy. I really like it a lot.
Yeah but I’m stuck after 2 hours. I got into a battle through a quest I stumbled upon, but there’s an enemy I fail to win from. I seem to be unable to get out of the quest. I played 1, which was really nice although I didn’t completely finished it due to bugs.
I would suggest to load up an earlier save. The beginning is the hardest part of the game (like brutally hard combat sometimes) and if you don’t train Henry up (either find Tomcat or Captain Gnarly, they are trainers) you’ll just die. Or you can do what i did and just brute force the fight with save scumming. The combat is not intuitive until you practice for a bit.
One tip i would give you so you don’t get overly frustrated is if you see what appears to be a combat situation (anyone hanging out on the road or beside it at camps) save the game by exiting. This makes an exit save which will be overwritten by the next exit save but it doesn’t cost you a saviour schnapps to save. This way you aren’t drunk in combat nor are you limited to saving only via schnapps. If you do that right as you see a combat encounter you should be able to try it a few times and if you can’t win just run or sneak past them.
Thanks, I’ll try that. With 1 I added a mod so I could save any time. I don’t like the snapps mechanic.
This time I saw a guy in a tree with wolves under it. I easily killed the wolves, but then had to carry the guy really far. In the end I had to kill some guys at an emcampment so I could bring this dude to his place, but I couldn’t kill the more heavily armored camp leader. So I played an annoying side quest by slowly carrying a guy really far, then to end up being stuck. So rage quit haha
Lol Vostatek is great. If you can’t get Pepik back, try going at night and sneak in and kill the camp leader with a knife to the throat while he’s sleeping. If you’re lucky you can kill two or three before the others notice. Also at night they don’t wear armor or weapons except the guy on guard.
Alternatively you can just run in and grab Pepik and get back to Vostatek post haste. The mission is to get the horse, the guys are just extra loot.
KCD2 is a game which rewards you for thinking outside the box. Frontal assaults don’t work unless you’re a sword god and henry ain’t that in the early game.
