Dark_Swordmaster posted:The first episode of the new King's Quest is now free on Steam. Apparently the season pass has been lowered in price as well. Anyone on the fence about trying this, be advised: it actually, surprisingly, owns. The voice talent and script are on point and there are even a few actual puzzles. The art style is similar (but imo superior) to Telltale's recent offings. The originals are still awful but this reboot is solid, and Chapters 2 and 3 are even better than 1. Try it out.

senae posted:Top bad about the whole "largely funded by stolen money" then. Casual googling shows me a lot of hearsay and speculation, and even if money were stolen it were stolen from a theoretical Homestuck game, so I really don't feel bad at all for enjoying/buying it.

LORD OF BOOTY posted:Have you ever gone back and played the original KQ games? They were groundbreaking for the time, but Sierra adventure game design really, really doesn't hold up. Space Quest only gets a pass from me nowadays because it's hilarious, even if it does the same bullshit as the KQ games. Even at the time, Sierra game design was laughably terrible compared to INFOCOM. The only thing they had going for them was "pretty graphics". I remember QFG1 came on something like ten 3.5" floppies. Took forever to install that mother. On topic, most INFOCOM games can be played for free these days.

Angry Lobster posted:Wings of liberty is the best of the three campaigns, and that's not saying much. Still fun enough to play. Nooooo. I haven't played the Protoss one but the Zerg campaign was 1000x more fun than WoL to me. In WoL every single one of the first, like, 20 missions is just "build lots of the unit you unlock in this mission and then attack-move to victory". And gently caress that time wasting mission with the day/night cycle that takes absolute goddamn forever because heaven forfend you miss ONE building.

SolidSnakesBandana posted:It's better than SC1 I would say. You actually make "choices" and stuff to power up your units beyond what they would be normally, or in multiplayer. There's even branching paths and stuff. There's literally zero other RTSs on the market right now so I say if you are even passively interested you will enjoy it. Also you can download something called Mass Recall which is the entirety of Starcraft 1 in the Starcraft 2 engine. It's very very good. You can actually play that with the current free version that exists right now. please tell me the quick and easy way to do this, I want to play this so bad now

SolidSnakesBandana posted:Here are some instructions. Its been too long since I played it for me to give you any advice beyond that. Step 1 would be to download Battle.net and install the starter edition of Starcraft 2 Oh I already have the full version of SC2. I just finished up that video's instructions, I'm not used to things like this being so easy Gonna try it out now edit: the latest SC2 patch seems to have caused some issues, but they're easy to fix and get it working. drat this is a trip down memory lane without going backwards in time to a much worse interface precision fucked around with this message at 11:32 on Nov 6, 2017 |

Watch_Dogs is definitely not so bad that you should pass on at least trying it. It has some really fun stuff in it.

Yeah Watch_Dogs 1 is not "bad" at all, just somewhat bland. Good soundtrack though and worth a playthrough, especially since W_D2 is amazing
