Agreed. If it was important advice, maybe it should be put in a manual or tutorial instead? Otherwise it's nothing but spoilers for gameplay mechanics that the player would perhaps like to find out by himself.
I've played The Long Dark less than a year, but in that short time it seems the number of new screens increase with almost every update. Currently there's one saying the developers "do not condone the destruction of wildlife" (as if the players will go mass-murdering rabbits after playing the game); another one that it's a studio that "cares about its players" (yet forces updates incompatible with previous saves); and most recently an unskippable epilepsy warning. I suppose lawyers are to blame for all this?
i absolutely agree with everything said here. i also love weird soundtracks in games, i dont care if it scares the hoes - me included. if its weird and i dont like it, then thats fair, maybe others can appreciate it. unless its poorly mixed or low quality, then i dont mind. anything that adds some personality to the game is welcome.I like you. "Retards" would be my desired word choice in this context too, regardless of the high degree of subjectivity involved with music taste. Even if you dislike the 4 astounding and diverse yet entirely fitting Drum n Bass tracks because you got beat with the sissy stick and obviously chugged too much soy, the majority of the remaining music (8 tracks?) is indivisive, subtle, horror, tension-building masterpieces, and the game's soundtrack is, like many greats of the 90s, absolutely as important to the experience as the gameplay, visuals, story and whatever else. Fucking retards is right!
I love the SS2 soundtrack. I really don't understand the people who mute it.
Always felt the pounding tracks lent urgency rather than taking away from the atmosphere.
I remember that from Crysis 2, that game too started by spoiling almost every cinematic cutscene, making them even less interesting when you finally got to play the game. Perhaps the assumption is that stupid players have already forgotten about the intro when seeing them again?
