Between 1 and 3 gig.

I think the last was 2.2, but I might be mixing that up with one of the Telltale games.

According to steam, it's about 2.4gb. IDK about consoles.

Maybe the devs like the universe they created and feel it's worth exploring further? That doesn't mean they can't shake things up and offer a significantly different experience while maintaining the style and mechanics that made LiS a success.

What is the obsession with "universes"? That's like saying Donnie Darko has a universe. The fictional universe monkey's paw wish goes horribly every time and I don't know why nerds never notice.

What are the rules for ghosts in the Hamlet universe? This is worth exploring further.

There's usually a little update the day before the next episode. That's just small stuff to make sure everything is synched up well.

First, let me congratulate you on being smarter than all those nerds. Way to go. Now, feel free to replace the word "universe" with "fictitious world" or "made-up place" or "imaginary setting", whichever you think would not be indicative of an obsession.

Point is this make-believe dimension has some weird poo poo going on and exploring playing through it as Max has been interesting and fun and worth the 9€ I've paid. The devs mentioned a potential thematic sequel, so they seem interested in keeping telling stories in this fake reality where unnatural events take place and I, for one, would be interested in playing through those.

Sometimes Imaginary Oregon featuring girl with time travel powers and lovely friends is just Imaginary Oregon featuring girl with time travel powers and lovely friends.

I'm not pushing for a franchise. I really don't think they could make a string of sequels interesting, but one? Maybe a couple? This whole thing started with this post:

Accordion Man posted:

I hope they make a sequel, one of the devs said if that would ever happen, LiS Season 2 would be a thematic sequel with an entirely new cast and setting for the next series.

Devs say maybe there could be a sequel, I say "cool". That's it, pretty much.

Sounds like a Final Fantasy sequel. In that beyond the title of the game it's got gently caress all to do with the previous one.

I'm ready for this time travel story to go off the rails and disappear up its own butt. Bring on Episode 4.

Anyone know what you do to bust the padlock in the barn?

I've been searching around trying to figure out what item to use. I thought maybe attaching it to the tractor and busting out of the barn. Doesn't look like it. Nor getting the hook on the generator and pushing it off the ledge. Any help?
