Trilobite posted:Hey, why does a closed door have a button that says "CLOSE" on it, anyway? Can you double-close it? Or did they mean it to say "CLOSED," so even commandos would know not to try walking through it? It doesn't matter because the button retreats into the door when you open it. You can never manually close it.

quote:Heh, actually Cyberpunk 2077 was started before Star Citizen. It was revealed in May 2012, almost 8.5 years ago at this point. SC didn't even have its kickstarter until 6 months later, near the end of 2012, and then started building up the studio from nothing in 2013. SC has realistically been in development for about 7 years, and Cyberpunk has been in development for at least 8.5 years from an already established studio. Games take a long time. quote:And they didn't have to build a studio from the ground up. quote:true they merged shortly before that and then build up 3 studios while working on 3 games, had only a handfull working on it untill they released the last Witcher DLC (2016), but who actually cares about such details if they don't fit one's narrative 😉 quote:Umm, Witch 3 = Cyberpunk 2077 just different skin and mechanics. Same engine, all the engine work done on Witcher over the years all rolled in to Cyberpunk, effectively making the Cyberpunk dev time well over 15 years with way more man power behind it. Soooooo I guess no one cares about that detail either if it doesn't fit your narrative. quote:and theyre on the cusp of releasing a complete game and we're still waiting for a sq42 update video quote:still 8.5 years but that don't fit your narrative.... O and they do not share progress and details during the project sooo that also do not fit into your narrative as well ... AND we cannot play the game meanwhile they are developing it so that also .... you know what i'm gonna say here =D Yeah, well that's just, like, your narrative, man.

If Cyberpunk was not delayed, they would spin the story and say that other evil studios rush the development.

Dwesa posted:If Cyberpunk was not delayed, they would spin the story and say that other evil studios rush the development. Just look at the game names and tell me which one do you think is cooler - Star Citizen or Cyberpunk? Like "Star" and "Citizen" are really generic and plane. 'Cyber' and 'Punk' sound cool, mysterious and rebellious. It tells you all you need to know. If you don't know, the truth is that Chris Roberts is an amazingly untalented hack that is just conning people for his own enrichment.

Star Citizen sounds like suburban middle-aged guy who screams at group of Cyberpunks to get off his lawn. And cyberpunk flicks a cigarette at star citizen while walking away laughing at his glitching lawn.

To quote my favourite bit ever from a Cyberpunk splatbook (where they discuss the options for buying "second-hand" or just second-rate cyberware at discounted prices): "Russian leg not pretty like American leg, but good when kicking tank." This should tell you all you need to know about Cyberpunk.

I definitely must have missed something in Obra Dinn because I thought it was supposed to be some puzzle-y investigation game but I just walked around looking at stuff and not really solving or investigating anything for an hour before giving up in boredom.

Mr. Peepers posted:Well I got about to the point where a giant squid attacked the ship. At no point did I feel like I was doing anything besides playing a walking simulator. Not played myself because as I understand it, the game would be a lot better if I was in the right mindset where my wife and I could tackle it together and hopefully not have to resort to a guide. Maybe that's where you were too. So these are non-spoilers from a dummb. The entire setup of Obra Dinn is that you're solving a (many) murder(s) by using a magic watch to jump back in time where you can see the last moments of each character's life. The big letdown according to many is that the experience is largely open-world, so you can prematurely spoil some big reveals for yourself. The bit people are drooling over is that this is a little self-contained world, and all the narrative journeys you're opening up are all confined to the same physical location, which is kinda rare. The end of the game can just be checking off the last names on your list without a Big Reward, if you had a "bad" sequence of reveals. It's more of an old-school puzzle game that people who hate railroaded modern narrative experiences are drooling over. If you view all of that as just a walking simulator because there isn't any shooting or anything, yes, it's a walking simulator where the only goal is to walk the entire 500 miles. Except 450 of those miles are back in time, at the same physical location in the past.

Mr. Peepers posted:I definitely must have missed something in Obra Dinn because I thought it was supposed to be some puzzle-y investigation game but I just walked around looking at stuff and not really solving or investigating anything for an hour before giving up in boredom. Obra Dinn is an absolutely awesome game and one of the best games I ever played, BUT exactly the point mentioned is where you are completely lost imo because the mechanics don't click yet (and are never explained to you). The opening gives you three easy murders to solve as a tutorial, the next section with the kraken gives you another two, but then the whole inception stuff starts and you don't really understand what is happening and why after some time the game fades to black, then makes you chase some thingy, then takes you to another murder case etc. It's the lowest point of the game, imo, and I can only suggest to power through it. As soon as you are into the next chapter or the one after (where stuff really gets going) you will understand the structure of the game and how it works, and that was the point where it absolutely hooked me like not many games before. I think the only game that gave me more open-mouthed "what the gently caress is going on?" moments this year is 13 Sentinels (another masterpiece). Light spoilers explaining the mechanics: the first time you access a murder scene, you only have a short time investing it, before getting taken back. If that murder scene led to another death, it will be signaled to you and you will have to chase some ghost thingy that points to the actual location (in your time) of the next corpse. The locations become way more important later on, when bodies are moved. Normally, these leads you through a whole chapter of the book, after which you can then recheck all the scenes with unlimited time, and check whats going on. In these sequences, there is usually a door to exit them. At this point, check your book which characters are now clear on the picture, and which are marked as easy (one triangle) to solve instead of medium or hard. Work up from there, and you usually get to the next chapter. At the beginning, new chapters also open up new decks of the ship. revwinnebago posted:The end of the game can just be checking off the last names on your list without a Big Reward, if you had a "bad" sequence of reveals. That part is imo way earlier, where you have to make guesses that you actually can't know yet. The end is absolutely awesome because everything fits together in a very quick pace. It's about half-time imo where you have soooo many questions that sometimes you have to guess. IIRC there are only a couple deaths that are only solvable by excluding other fates at the same time. Also a protip: do NOT guess around out of boredom if you have a dumb brain like me. You won't remember which fates you guessed, because a lot is going on later on that overwhelmed at least me tuo fucked around with this message at 16:58 on Oct 28, 2020 |

The game does hint in the journal where the next body is found, while bodies in a chain force you through an skippable cutscene. When you set foot on the Obra Dinn the place is abandoned, after spending an hour unlocking memories the place is littered with crime-scenes and chalk outlines. Pope had to make the unveiling of deaths occur in a certain order to avoid overwhelming with evidence from the get-go.
