    Amiga, Commodore and creativity

    Never used WinUAE on PC (I've used the Amiga Forever distro on my PC), but I don't think there would be any benefits. For my setup/living habits it just works having RPI in my living room hooked up to a TV set. I also like having a dedicated Amiga setup with amibian on a dedicated SD card (I...

    Amiga, Commodore and creativity

    I've been toying around recently with an idea of bringing my A1200 with phase V Blizzard 1220 back to life. I'll have to do capacitor recapping just to be sure, I'll have to put together a new PSU, which is most likely going to be a Meanwell rt-65b as it comes highly recommended from the amiga...

    Ghost of a Tale - stealth action-RPG where you play a mouse

    The whole fucking game is "go there and take this, then return and give it to me, then go there and find that and bring it to x" and it's set up so that you cris-cross the map for a million times. And most of the time, it's set up so that you have to go to the most awkward part of the map from...

    Ghost of a Tale - stealth action-RPG where you play a mouse

    Really surprised to see such praises for this game. Sure, it's charming and downplayed story and not taking itself too serious is also beneficial. But all the fucking backtracking for n times and mega shitty quests like "collect 20 of these and then 10 of those and then go to the other fucking...

    AMID EVIL - Heretic/Hexen-inspired FPS from the creators of Return of the Triad mod

    Yes, that was extremely disappointing to hear. Level and encounter design is the essence of old-school FPS. You can't just make open spaces and throw tons of enemies at player, make it fast-paced and arcadey and say "it's old school". That's Painkiller, Serious Sam, new Doom, first new Shadow...

    Review Legend of Grimrock 2 Review at Rock Paper Shotgun

    Regarding game's locations macro-structure, comments in the cited review reminded me of Anvil of Dawn. Which is a great thing.

    Game News Legend of Grimrock 2 to be released on October 15th, available for pre-order

    I love Grimrock and i look forward to this sequel, but goddamn, this trailer is shit. And music is really ubershit. This really seems to have too much of everything, i thought i was going to see Cinderella at one point in the trailer.

    Game News Shadowrun Returns Kickstarter Update #79: Dragonfall Director's Cut Dev Diary #3: Combat Mechanics

    Does any of you bros know how sales of Shadowrun/Dragonfall have been and if they're planing on doing another campaign? I'd really like to see another Dragonfall style expansion. And continuation of improving mechanics/AI.

    Game News Watch Kingdom Come: Deliverance in motion, KS ending at £1.1m

    This depends on the length of animation of enemy after making physical contact with player character and inertia of your own previous movement which will probably also be handled by animation and then the time it takes for your repeated ability of control input. If these times are high and the...

    Game News Watch Kingdom Come: Deliverance in motion, KS ending at £1.1m

    I think combat could be good if they push the realism stuff far enough. However, I would hope it won't end up like a series of masked QTEs like: the enemy animation telephones the enemy's move and you have to press the right button to counter that move and then again the same over and over...

    Game News Watch Kingdom Come: Deliverance in motion, KS ending at £1.1m

    But the title of the king of hiking simulators will likely be taken over from TES. Unless TES VI comes out by that time.

    Game News Watch Kingdom Come: Deliverance in motion, KS ending at £1.1m

    Bullshit. It was enough for me seeing the dude play on gamepad and hearing about minigames and "checkpoints" on the map. Fuck off.

    Game News Legend of Grimrock 2 Feature List and Screenshots

    I don't see how that half-assed mechanic in those games changes anything. It's ridiculous how rarely one has to rest. And even if one needed to do it more, that doesn't change the way combat itself is.
