Hello guys, I wanted to announced that I finally released my demo for The Milgram Experiment. One of the inspirations of the game is the book Obedience to Authority by the same scientist. Other big inspirations are Papers, Please; Pools; Sublimnal and the show Severance.
Today’s game is some more Alan Wake II. I already made it through the hotel today. I always forget how fast this game goes by. It definitely is a good length, but damn does it leave me wanting more.
I had previously stopped playing this game as, simply put, my level of English wasn’t high enough to understand the story and the language, but now that I’ve resumed playing this game and gotten past A Realm Reborn… I’m having so much fun ✨
Today’s game is Project Zomboid. I got me and some friends back on the Build 42 Multiplayer and we had some fun. We ended up chilling this session, and I figured out how to get on the roof of the house I made my home and just chilled. It was nice.
I’m a developer working on a game similar to Geoguessr (street view location guessing game), but using images sourced from Wikimedia. The aim is to make it more fun by removing the meta clues in Geoguessr that people use to find locations, for example some players have memorized what street view cars or picture quality was used in certain places. For me, this ruins the fun of the game as it becomes less about knowledge of geography and more about memorizing useless information. So that’s why I made Where.
Today’s game is some more Alan Wake II. Now that I’ve had proper time I’ve noticed a few interesting details I wanted to point out. Like for example, Alan when he uses the health kit will actually pull a bandage out of the health pack. Which I think is a really cool detail.
The de facto chat client used by gamers, often at the expense of platform-provided solutions, so I hope mods let this fly. Screen sharing of a game window is something that Discord figured out before anyone else, and it still might be the only one in town that works well for that use case. I’m about to start doing more research to see if any other programs can be subbed in, because this sucks. Wario64 facetiously linked a story about Discord getting hacked and revealing government IDs right underneath this story on Bluesky.
Today’s game is some more Alan Wake II. Today is going to be a bit brief because I just got back from a party where I was to semi-official-ish photographer.
Today’s game is some more Alan Wake II. I made into the subway today, and I almost did the Night Springs episode but opted not too. I did spend a bit of time messing around with Photo Mode though. I know I’ve said it a bunch, but I love this game’s photo mode. It really is the best one I’ve ever had the chance to play with. I only wish I did some sort of Super Resolution when rendering them. That would be great.
Today’s game is some more Alan Wake II. I think the Morgue is my favorite room in Saga’s story. It’s got all these shiny tiles with reflections that everything bounces off of, it’s really pretty to look at. I cranked my poor RX 7600 XT up to high Ray Tracing just to see what it’d look like. Here’s what it looks like by the way:
I wanted an Xbox one so i could play the newer Forza Motorsport series( seems like most people say Forza 6 is the best all around), but it also seems as if the xbox one was on life support by Microsoft since they had to make the Xbox One X with 4k and HDR just to keep up with Playstation and i hear the newer Xbox’s aren’t much more reliable than the older consoles and still suffer from hardware failures.
Today’s game is Alan Wake II. I’ve been wanting to do another play through after I dropped it before getting to the second DLC, and since starting a photography class i’ve been wanting to try and put my knowledge to use in this game. If I manage to get through this play through it will be my 4th complete Playthrough.
Had a LAN together with 10 friends last weekend. We played BAR. What an absolute amazing game!! 1000s of units, AI and large scale battles - No lagging, No crashing.. just ran smooth all the time, even on old crappy gfx cards with 4gb memory. Wow!
The prompt for this one might seem wildly unexpected. To start with: Yes, some libraries let people borrow video games. Generally, the easiest system for them is just to buy Switch / Playstation carts/discs for people to borrow and return.
When we announced these products in November, we planned on being able to share specific pricing and launch dates by now. But the memory and storage shortages you’ve likely heard about across the industry have rapidly increased since then. The limited availability and growing prices of these critical components mean we must revisit our exact shipping schedule and pricing (especially around Steam Machine and Steam Frame).
Reports are inconclusive at the moment. Some users have reported worse performance, others swear that uninstalling mods and/or verifying the game’s files has fixed their performance issues.
Today’s game is some more Halo. I finally got around to trying some Forge Games (Only 450 Hours in on Steam alone). We got a whole bunch of stuff to try. Like one we got called Jenga. It’s a game of infection where the Zombies have Grav-Hammers and try to Fling things at the Humans who are stacked on some floating boxes that can be dislodged.
I often bemoan the fact that marketing or circumstances surrounding a game have a disproportionate amount of sway on the perception of quality in video games. “Bad” games can be successful and “good” games can be review bombed to hell. With this post I would like to look at why the situation surrounding a game is as important to its perception than its actual quality. I don’t think marketing brain washes people into liking games, but rather, it buys benefit of the doubt.
Today’s game is Borderlands The Pre Sequel. I had my friend play this with me again and we had a fun time. Though I can’t say we’ll be playing again any time soon. As 1) It’s absolutely miserable to censor the information to protect his privacy 2) He’s under leveled on our save due to losing all his progress to the cloud, so he has to go play a bit by himself to level up. Mostly the issue is 2.
For a while, meta progression felt like a clever way to keep games fresh. You’d unlock new gear, perks, or passive bonuses between runs, and that sense of forward motion made failure feel productive. I still remember how ground-breaking this felt the first time I played Rogue Legacy. The game nearly made me look forward to losing, limiting any frustrations I would get from losing. Over time, however, the novelty has worn off. More and more I feel like instead of removing the frustration, meta progression is removing the sense of improvement.
I think I’ve got an idea of a way to make somewhat of an annual thing where I will post games that have turned X years old. There’s a guy who posts daily screenshots so I got an idea to do something similar.
Maybe not the news some of us disillusioned with Nintendo want to hear, but it is the news. The Switch 1 has also become Nintendo’s best-selling console ever (and in my opinion, will likely stay that way).
