It does.

 

It was released in CDA.
You know, that cheap game publisher who add free, colourful toilet paper with games and who gave 1/10 to King of Dragon Pass.
Didn't bother to try because it required 3D accelerator in GPU

 

I think they have advised numerous times to not use their glossy paper for asswiping.

Anyway, they also gave Divinity 2 3/10 because gaem hard and reviewer butthurt, so they have long since gone full retard.

 

Meanwhile at Rupture Farms...



Safety norms are adhered to in 100%, as you can see despite being dangerously close to those lethal spinning blade wheels and electrical fields no mudokon slaves employees are dying.



Baby meat continues to fall into the grinder so that cash can flow.



Employee turnover is low thanks to sufficient loyalty enforcing incentives.



Glukkon shaped motion detection towers combine the very best in aesthetics and escape burglary attempt prevention.



Sligs continue to blindly walk towards that active mine that was supposed to be deactived.



Unfortunately the mudokon was caught in the blast and now his head is flying. Who knows, maybe if it is fast enough it runs into Kerbals after a few thousand years of drifting in space.

Abe's Odyssey, still one of the best looking 2D games ever.

 

Jesus Christ Denton is tired from making all 4 Deus Ex endings happen at once.

 

Full story here

 

Mod that adds craftable greaves/legwraps for female characters, so your chick can have armour down there while still showing her cute bare feet.
Was kinda surprised that the vampire chick is wearing them, the mod description only says they're craftable. She's the only female character in the game I saw wearing them.

What is this?

 

Eve Burst Error, had to try some VN not being a total hentai. It was quite good, although the script could be cutted, the tedious conversation should be more up to the point. It's a detective story, where you have two characters working on investigation. The first one is Kojiroh, typical jap guy who leaves in some dirty place and Marina, the sexy chick you can see in one of the pictures. Their plots are branched, but as more you play and discover, more often they bump up on each other. Interesting mechanic, although it's ruined during the hacking section. Horrible save-load exercise, where you must switch between them. A little bit of panties and bras, but no tentacles and others.

 

And I was hoping that some jap codexer/boarder finally got up from his butt and made his dream game with Muhammad and pork sandwich sex.

 

Determined to finish this time around. Hadn't played in years since I sold my boxed copy. Combat still sucks and feels too twitchy even in turn-based, and it's a complete pain to initiate dialogue on moving characters with HD patch (why cant they stay still when you click on them to speak? fuck) but everything else is great. Had forgotten about all the fun dialogue choices. Game looks pretty nice zoomed out in HD too.

(For anyone interested; I converted all the in-game vids to 1080p. If you want them, get them here)

I just converted textures from 32x32 to 16384x16384. If you want true HD experience, get it here.

 

I wanted to start playing Arcanum again but the game runs like shit on my computer for some reason. I haven't tried the HD patch so I don't know if this changes anything.













Map is For Love of Evil!. It's a fantastic runic map in the vein of McGee's Episode 3 and it's very very challenging on Nightmare. Comes with 2 other smaller maps of lesser quality but still enjoyable.

 

Did you try any command-line switches? I use "-no3d" and "-doublebuffer". Plays smoothly that way otherwise there's tons of screen tearing and everything feels jerky, especially at higher resolutions.

 

Arcanum looks horrid in these high resolutions, I couldn't play it that way... Same way with the Fallout titles.

 

Wouldn't Fallout viewed on a 14" inch screen in 1998 have similar sized graphics as viewed in high-res on a 22" inch widescreen?

 

Funny thing - I actually think Arcanum looks *better* this way despite Fallout, for example, looking worse in HD.

I guess it's because FO had good tiles and sprites, so zooming out only drew attention to obvious tiling and broke the illusion, while Arcanum, with it's shitty sterile, repetitive and platic-y assets benefits from focusing more on area layouts, lighting and making poor level of detail not visible because of the reduced size of the art assets on the screen.

Where can I get this HD patch?

 

I agree with you. Plus, Arcanum just has a pitiful FOV without higher resolutions.

 

Yup, I play Arcanum in native res and Fallout 1/2 in low res too.

 

Default Arcanum is basically unplayable on a large LCD monitor, it's zoomed in way too far and looks like blurry shit with a view distance of about 5 feet. I think the game looks damn fine at 1080p like most isometric 2D games, where you can really appreciate some detail and be able to navigate much better.



v.s.



Obvious winner.

 

Funny how it doesn't apply to Fallout.

Art design > graphics.

 

I don't agree with that. Not your art design point but about Fallout. I thought it looked pretty good in HD and like Arcanum, Commandos, Divine Divinity and various other isometric games - it's nice to be able to see more of the area around you in widescreen and to appreciate everything in more detail from objects to just buildings. I didn't notice any real tiling problems either but it's been a while. I'd install it and check more closely but I'm so fucking sick of Fallout, I'd rather not.
