    Game News Knights of the Chalice released on GOG

    You are right that about niche in general, but : - there's a lot more quality nowadays (think about the incredible work on Underrail for instance) - Pierre could have easily evolved the game a little, adding higher res for instance, which could impact the GUI, etc. (instead of doing other weird...

    Game News The Outer Worlds released on Steam and GOG

    Thank you, I was wondering exactly that (after reading through half of the flat-earther-like "critiques" this thread seemed composed of). But on the other hand, are there any alternatives in this style of gameplay and SF setting ?

    Game News Obsidian's next big RPG is Avowed, a Skyrim-like set in the Pillars of Eternity universe

    Just hit it with a bat hard enough, and it stays humble. I have it set up exactly as I had my win7 (no Microsoft account, one local admin user, direct to desktop when booting, win7-like GUI, etc. I even have my desktop gadgets to monitor CPU and so on.). It's not in the same state as it was on...

    On the same-ish subject, an RPG should be careful not to fall too far in the "puzzle game" category. My character should still be the main "engine" of advancement and not only me as a problem solving provider. It's the usual discussion of "shouldn't my high int mage be able to understand this...

    Conclusion (after reading Kant again ?) : some sort of difficulty settings are relevant, whatever some extremists are saying.

    I suppose you read Kant in German ? And the Greek philosopher in ancient Greek ? Oh, you chose easy mode ?

    Interview Colony Ship Interview at RPGWatch

    I really hope there will be some kind of "difficulty" settings. For me, it's what opens up the game to experimentation, role-playing and enjoyment. I finished Age of Decadence a first time, and it was great but felt nearly more like a "puzzle"-game than an RPG. Then I installed a "double-XP"...
