Gonna pick up Life is Strange 2 I think but unsure what else. Anyone have recs for games focusing on murder mysteries? Doesn't have to be the entire focus but some kind of gameplay involved in deduction and investigation.

You can skip a lot of it - the content creator and the radio packs, for example. Also Natural Disasters.

too much dead rat posted:Gonna pick up Life is Strange 2 I think but unsure what else. Return of the Obra Dinn is the ultimate murder mystery game, and one of the best narrative puzzle games ever made. The Painscreek Killings is a full-on murder mystery where you have an entire abandoned town to explore, but with the size of the place you'd better be prepared to search every drawer and keep your own notes.

Doom Eternal is ridiculously well optimized. My computer (CPU especially) is no spring chicken and DE hums along at a solid 60 FPS with most/all of the bells and whistles on.

Anyone have strong feelings about Spellforce III? I remember liking the original a long time ago, and this looks very pretty/seems decently well received.

Holy loving poo poo! In rear end Creed 1, if I want to exit the game to my desktop, I have to pause the matrix world game and first exit the animus, then exit the machine I’m hooked up to, then pause the game in the real world and select exit, then from the main menu I have to select my profile again, and only then can I exit to desktop?! What the ever loving Christ?!!!! It’s like 7 layers of Inception just to quit!

FreeKillB posted:I played it without issue on an ancient integrated GPU (macbook pro with intel HD graphics 3000), it's a game that can run on fairly minimal gpus. Same for The Talos Principle, I think Croteam put in the work so that it'll run on a toaster if you use min settings. Fair enough; I remember the Gehenna hub in Talos Principle really struggling on even a dedicated GPU, but that was many generations ago and I probably didn't really try the settings. Plus integrated graphics have obviously come a long way since its release. FreeKillB posted:e: Recursed and Stephen's Sausage Roll are my go-to recommendation for complex puzzle games beyond what has already been mentioned. Yeah, I'd absolutely agree with Recursed for someone who enjoys the programming aspects of Zachtronics games. Gets pretty complex, too. Stephen's Sausage Roll... it's a very good puzzle game. I would say it's one of the densest and most mechanically interesting puzzle games ever made, and Stephen Lavelle might be the most innovative and influential puzzle game designer currently active. I just don't like any of his games, because they never teach the player anything; they only ever test. But that's very much a taste thing, plenty of people love them.

It's great, all Spellforce is great. Everyone should buy all the Spellforce games. Spellforce 1 is still the winner for craziest video game plot, and the Spellforce 3 plot almost manages to match it. Not in it's craziness, but what they did without making any mention of it. Seriously please someone ask me about the Spellforce 1/3 plots because they are incredible.

Yeah it's a bit uhhh yeah if you reach a point where you start getting sick of the game just skip ahead to 2, the leap in quality is serious. and if for some reason you don't like that one, try brotherhood because it's another big leap and makes the combat a lot better.

Is Heavy Rain worth playing nowadays or should I just get Detroit? I watched a LP of Beyond Two Souls years ago and I'm not interested in that one. There's no continuity between the three, right?

Not gonna lie, me and my friends had fun playing through Heavy Rain when it first came out, solving mysteries together and voting on decisions, but Cage games are all fundamentally flawed even if some are entertaining, and Heavy Rain might not have aged well.
