Welp, wish me luck

Holy shit that mission is atmospheric as fuck. It has that typical Thief level feeling of a place that seems both believe and slightly surreal, with a weird dreamlike quality to it. The sheer diversity of environments and the excellent lighting helps a lot there. My first impression was "oh no, a cavern mission, I don't like these too much" but then you entered a mine which serves a a thieves' lair, then come to a waterfall which I fell down, ended up in a crypt, climbed up and came out in a hammerite church which is part of a village with a peaceful and serene atmsophere, then I go climb back down to the mine so I can enter an abandoned and haunted prison that seems quite creepy because at first it is completely empty as you make your way down to the basement to switch the power on...

Great mission.

What is this game, miss Bee?

 

[Multi-headed Cow]

Those events are more entertaining than they probably should be.

Winter Voices.

I thought it was pretty neat actually, so I'm replaying it to check if my impression was correct.

You're telling me!

That's how we level up fire magic in Niefelheim!

Codex stupidity knows no boundaries. I love how you all jumped on me, posting some shitty mirror screenshots

Next time read up a little or atleast shut your whore mouths and don't speak on subjects you have no idea about.

B-B-BUT DN3D HAD MIRRORS!!!!!!!!11

Damn this game is scary. Well not scary, but something in there that is just very unsettling. Have to play again tomorrow.

I toned down the saturation to default after that.

The other screenshots are somehow not working -.- So I instead copypaste more pointless dayz screenshots

Crysis 1, still looks good for what it is - 7 years on:

2007 particle physics:

Still holds up against much of the current console-limited drivel getting crapped out by AAA devs.

Too bad they ruined the game with the alien crap.

Too bad they ruined the game with the alien crap.

It wasn't the aliens per se, it was the glacial pace of the Core level that sucked the life out of main quest, after which the game didn't really recover for the last 25%. My view is that the game goes steadily downhill mid-way through, but I do see potential with the later motifs - they just didn't have as good level design.

Crysis 1 to me is a sandboxy game just to muck around in, I like how from Contact to Awakening it does a decent job of not funneling the player too obviously. And the different ways to take on the DPRK using, say, just stealth and H2H. It still makes for a few hours of amusement, at least, for me.

 

[Perkel]

Yeah no, Crysis 1 now looks way worse. You can see how flat lighting is, how normal's are scarcely used.

Though in therms of shadows it is still amazing looking game. I have never seen another game that did ground shadows in night so well especially when you used flashlight.

It's a pretty long game. I rushed through the story missions as fast as I could, avoided 95% of all sidequests, and didn't even touch the Liberation or Hunting activities, let alone the naval missions. It took me about 18hrs to finish Sequence 12. You coud probably shave a couple of hours off that if you took out some of the unskippable cutscene-esque sequences, and another hour or two of the shitty Desmond parts. It wasn't quite as bad as I'd heard, but I dislike the series in the first place. There are a lot of glitches, shitty mission design and the usual crappy sense of control over your character, but it didn't strike me as any notably worse than Revelations or Brotherhood.

I thought it worth mentioning that this is the first game I've played that uses Nvidia's TXAA method, which doesn't come out so well in still shots (it's most effective in motion) but looks vastly superior to the default AA method (probably FXAA or SMAA or something).

Another few hours of gameplay. Honestly it actually went on too long due to the lack of variety, general glitchiness and some frustrating missions. Cool idea but the novelty wore off pretty fast.

DU typical alt inspection.

Damn you Manjuice Nutella , you almost gave me a heart attack.

Since I am in the mood for some Lovecraft games I've finally wanted to finish SoTC. The very first thing I noticed is the awkward interface. I used keyboard for moving the character and keyboard shortcuts for actions. But sometimes there was a necessary part, where you need to use some item. Or one item on another one. Turns out you first click on the one, and after that the second one to finally make it work. Sometimes you must keep pressing some actions in short period of times while moving to finally trigger an action. We can see our line of sight when we move towards interesting object that can be taken. Other than that I can't complain. The labirynth under cemetary was really nicely done, some traps, dead ends (literally), but it doesn't overhelm the player and it's nicely done. The ending part of the level reminded me of Dark Corners, great moment. The whole "sandboxy" feeling of the town is great, you can talk to everyone, while updating your map (very useful feature) and read journal which updates from time to time while you gather clues. There were some really tough moments where you need to react quickly or you will see dead screen. Which you will see many times no matter what. It's a great interactive homage to Lovecraft's novels. The only thing that's been bothering me, is why the town is named Illsmouth. Next title on the list - Prisoner of Ice.

Wot? George Washington built a pyramid? Wot?

He ruthlessly exploits the regions outside New York and is in the process of building that Palace when you arrive. You have to incite a rebellion against him before he invades England, "irrigates the fields with their blood" and enslaves the populace - promising Bongistanti slaves to every New Yorker
