wccrawford,

I absolutely hate it when a game or movie puts up a fully white screen, especially after a dark scene. It’s just painful and stupid.

Just finished my first playthrough of Prey by Arkane Studios and WOW. angielski

Can’t believe it took me so long to get around to playing this but I’m so glad I did. Dishonored is still my favorite of theirs but now I’ve played all their games and they are easily my favorite studio because of their rich storytelling and immersive world design....

wccrawford,

Yeah, when the new Prey came out I was very, very confused for a while.

I ended up liking the game, but I didn’t find it as interesting as the original.

wccrawford,

That’s a stay of execution at best. At some point, you’ll need to upgrade to a new Unity. It might be because IOS and Android require using an SDK that’s not more than 2 years out of date, or because nVidia/AMD invented some new amazing tech, or a host of other reasons. But eventually, you’ll need to upgrade.

The worst part is that Android is actually removing apps that haven’t updated in years, even if they still work perfectly. So you’ll get screwed by that eventually if you do mobile at all.

wccrawford,

They deserve their refunds, but…

This is a lesson that you never buy something based on a future promise. Buy it based on what it is, not what someone says it’ll be eventually.

wccrawford,

Steam has rules intended to curb this behavior.

wccrawford,

As if you can’t schedule your announcements to fall just after the scheduled stock sales… Or just before them, if you want.

wccrawford,

No. I don’t know any of game that allows you to refund purchases of in-game currency.

wccrawford,

I would love to know what they would port to. UE and Godot seem like obvious candidates.

wccrawford,

You missed one: They initially said that web-based games count as installs, too. Insanity.

wccrawford,

Where I’m from, 94-100 was an A, so 74-83 was still a C, but it would just squeak by.

wccrawford,

This actually does make me want to play the game some more. I had beat it once and started a new game+, but then got sick of doing it again. I might actually try it again soon now.

wccrawford,

There are “enhance” locations in the game that you can pay 500 credits to remake your character. No, not real money.

wccrawford,

Yeah, most of them are “we have X at home” quality.
