This is embarassing. Had no idea this existed. Thanks. Although we suffer from SW fatigue at the moment. Especially as Episode 8 was utter, utter crap IMO. Might watch The Mandalorian instead.

Hm, I seem to have got them confused. Empire Strikes Back has been better.

Indeed, fixed it I thought all were quite good from 1 to 6.

Wife and I watched all Star Wars movies over the course of the last few weeks: Star Wars Ep. 1: 4.5 out of 5 Ep. 2: 4.5 / 5 Ep. 3: 4 / 5 Ep. 4: 4.5 / 5 Ep. 5: 4 / 5 Ep. 6: 4 / 5 Ep. 7: 2 / 5 Ep. 8: 1.5 / 5 Should have ended it with Ep. 6.

I'm on Interloper now and even though it's way too long and not much fun, the game as a whole is fantastic and I can only hope Crowbar Collective and the soundtrack creators(!) will profit from it. Such fantastic level design And what a shame it is that Valve struck gold with Steam and stopped developing games (the odd one every ten years aside).

Your game of the year, not released this year - 2020 edition

I stand corrected. It's Black Mesa. This came out of nowhere for me and I can't believe how good this is. -
Playing this at the moment and it's excellent. Stunning "fan project".

Rocket League - played it with my brother over Christmas, it's still so much fun. Disco Elysium - just brilliant. -
Nintendo's surveillance operations against modders/hackers
alex3d replied to alex3d's topic in Retro & Arcade Gaming
As a tech newbie I find it extremely, extremely fascinating what modders are able to do. The PS2 hack via modified memory cards? Gdemu? Cloud gaming on Switch? Engineering-wise this is so fascinating. I'm pro modding. -
Good article about why Cyberpunk, while being a good game, falls short of Deus Ex quality: https://www.pcgamer.com/after-cyberpunk-2077s-rocky-launch-its-time-to-bring-back-deus-ex/

I'm playing this as we speak and it's a nice, well crafted singe-player game, isn't it? Not sure about the combat yet though as it indeed looks a bit imprecise and wobbly.
-
Enemy AI is so atrocious
-
So they really work even over Christmas after all the recent crunching? Fuck this.

Crazy stuff right there. "During the past 24 hours, various Twitter accounts (1,2) have been posting snippets from documents that were recently leaked from Nintendo. While there are numerous items of interest, the most shocking revelations involve Neimod, a hacker who several years ago developed exploits for the 3DS handheld console." https://torrentfreak.com/nintendo-conducted-invasive-surveillance-operation-against-homebrew-hacker-201223/ https://twitter.com/eclipse_tt/status/1341189295856627712

lol, unbelievably beautiful stuff. Thanks.

Simultaneous dialogue has been the biggest (in-game) bug for me.

Sorry, something is wrong. When I select the option to do more gigs I'm being returned to main menu and am only able to load my own save games. Edit: nooooooo, there seems to be a bug. LOL. First major bug for me then https://www.reddit.com/r/cyberpunkgame/comments/kci8vh/no_spoilers_finished_game_and_didnt_get_rewards/https://www.reddit.com/r/cyberpunkgame/comments/kgfeel/please_watch_this_is_absolutely_gamebreaking_and/

To me it's absolutely staggering how different (technical) experiences appear to be with this game. I've not had a single crash or major bug in my first playthrough (mid-level PC) and frame rate was very solid throughout.

Apparently Michael Kicinski (brother of board member) sold his 200 million CDPR shares on 4 Dec 2020 (three days before review embargo ran out). Could become an interesting story... https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/CD-PROJEKT-S-A-9933587/news/CD-Projekt-S-A-Current-report-no-63-2020-31969513/

Thanks. So in this case I can go back to do side missions even though I'm past the "point of no return" (as I have obviously finished the game)?
-
There is no New Game Plus, is there? After the credits the game tells me to go back and play unfinished missions, but as soon as I click on "Continue" in the menu it starts rolling out the credits again... @vezna Yes, I found them tedious too.
-
This is spot on. As soon as I realised and accepted that I began having fun. As I wrote before, basically the game is a victim of CDPR's RPG/Openness/Freedom hype machine.
-
Almost done with it, not sure if I just stick around town for a bit or finish it now and maybe return in a few months time. It's a good game that basically puts you on rails to experience an interactive movie as its main story. Its flaws are plentiful though and many of these are detrimental to creating an immersive world. It played like a mixture of Uncharted, GTA V and maybe Deus Ex, even though it never reached the latter's brilliance (e.g. in dialogue, in freedom and balance and especially in the way its story is told). I am pretty sure many of CDPR's design decisions will be discussed for
