That was the one that started Let's Play scary faces in the thumbnail mania?
It's the game made by the people who ended up making game that kickstarted the jumpscare craze.

Imagine just dropping the single greatest mod the series has ever seen just to celebrate the first game's 25th anniversary.

He said he was going to cover all of Fricitonal Games library
Meaning the next video is likely to be SOMA, then Amnesia Rebirth (didn't know about this one) and finally Bunker
Curious to see what will he make of Bunker's more gamey focus

Had forgotten how good Amnesia sound design was

Codex 2016 - The Age of Grimoire Make the Codex Great Again! Grab the Codex by the pussy Codex Year of the Donut Shadorwun: Hong Kong Divinity: Original Sin 2 Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Looks fun, but the extremely short time-to-kill kinda kills my will to try it, making units worthless except tanks.

Short time to kill reminds me of Cuban Missle Crisis, where range was most important

Well, that's based upon Blitzkrieg's engine. I never liked the first BK game because the only sure way or doing anything was crawling a sniper around and taking most everything out with arty because of how powerful dig in defenses were.

Played hundreds of hours of SoaSE, in time when Stardock had its game delivery platform, Impulse.
It was a game well before its time, still more playable than Stellaris.
Too bad it never had campaign, but mods were great.

SoaSE 2 is exclusive to Epic for now, and I won't try it until they get on Steam or GOG.
Did anybody play that game?

If they did that to the original Amnesia I dread to see what The Chinese Room turns Bloodlines 2 into.

Thing is, Machine for Pigs IS well-written. Everything else is mediocre or at least inconsistent, but the writing delivers. That was essentially The Chinese Room's whole thing, which is why they made so many walking simulators. If THAT was the team working on Bloodlines 2, there'd at least be a chance that the thing could have a compelling plot.

The current Chinese Room it is just a generic studio that uses the same name as the old one, though; they're essentially wearing a carcass... and I genuinely don't see a single good thing from the trailers they have released. So yeah, the final result could be even more dire than it'd be if the actual "walking simulation studio" was making it.

played demo on PC and then dared to rent Xbox360 version to take short and painful lesson why playing FPS games on consoles sux.
Sometimes there's a crumble of truth behind stereotypes.
Sometimes stereotype is not a myth.
