Just because Liquor's dead, doesn't mean you can just roll this bitch all over town with "The Freedoms."

finally, not buying the game pays off after nearly 20 years



also available on Prime Gaming this month: Blade Assault, Payday 2, Wytchwood

Hopefully they patched Quake 4 some time in the last few years. Tried to play it a while back and it has an issue where the lighting doesn't render correctly on modern graphics cards and everything looks completely flat as a result. Gameplay was still fine but it really killed the atmosphere.

if they remaster Quake 3 next year, then Quake 4 remaster would be right on time for its 20th anniversary

IDK if they will remaster Q3 though since it's already got so many variants like that hero based one and quake live and etc

I admit my situation wont be common but originally I started with me and my younger brother. Then my older brother, who plays with his own people when available, wanted to play with us and help us out. So sure, he can drop in and play with us and when he has to log off my younger brother and I can keep playing.


But now we're stuck with the character my older brother made and now only have 1 slot to dedicate to a companion to swap out. It also doesn't help he made a greenman named Shrek

well, now it looks like I need to curse all my friends with a shrek in the party

The biggest standout for me is its movement. Between your run speed, dashes, double jump, weapon jumps, wall run on special runnywalls, grappling hook, air control, the aforementioned CHAINSAW LEG, and all the unlockable upgrades for those, TO has the best movement out of all the recent shootboomers. Combat is excellent as well.

Most of the best FPSes of the last few years, I would call almost as good as Dusk and Amid Evil. Turbo Overkill is the first one I'd say is just as good as those two.

God dammit, I'm sold.

I would be happy if the additional content for Golden Idol would be those ~three chapter mini story arcs until they can make a full sequel. Only problem is that there's never enough Golden Idol.

well i'm always a fan of a game with fluid movement so seems like i ought to give it a shot after work

meanwhile, how's it compare difficulty-wise to ULTRAKILL? i ain't getting any younger and neither are my reflexes, going by how hard i found that one :corsair:

(e) i liked CHEGG better lol

it's insane how fast you move and how fluid it feels. it's a really fun game. i finished episode 1 and then got side tracked by baldur's gate but man is it good. it's got a really varied enemy roster too which i'm a big fan of. feels like, idk, doom eternal and amid evil had a baby.

I may well have to, but the whole reason I just lit $22 on fire was in the hopes of not having to spend a long weekend downloading and unpacking something this fuckhuge

It's the first time I've thought of an outrageously bloated install footprint as an antipiracy measure, but it's evidently more effective than the actual loving DRM :v:

I could see the argument I guess but most of VtMBs alternative solutions are just varying ways of talking yourself out of boss fights. Even that runs out eventually when the Troikaness comes calling.

I tried out The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood, because I was intrigued by the demo.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1340480/The_Cosmic_Wheel_Sisterhood/

It's a fairly unique Interactive Fiction kind of game. I got a couple of hours in and I was finding the gameplay and the story fairly intriguing at first, especially the card making which is really cool, until one specific point.
I'm going to spoiler it just in case, but I don't actually consider it a big spoiler really because there's no substance to it.
There's a point where a character that you meet for the second time ever (both you as a player and you as the main character) goes "Wow, you helped me. Also, I love you!" and your character also goes "I love you too!" without giving you a choice about it, unlike basically every interaction prior to that, and then it cuts to an implied sex scene and now your "love" just hangs around your house without ever interacting with you in any way.

Now, to be fair, there could be a plot justification for that, but none of the characters acknowledge that happening again,
and I found that whole thing to be incredibly off-putting to the point where I just quit the game and I'm not planning on finishing it anymore.

I'm fairly certain it was autoregistered to the account I can't access thanks to my purchase going through some unholy amalgamation of GMG, EGS, and RSC that didn't even yield an actual redemption key. My last hope at this point is that it turns out the one means of actually contacting Rockstar support seems to be claiming your account was hijacked (and hey, it may even have been for all I know, my first and last use of it was 7 years ago), so I'm taking a shot at that.
