If you ever see yourself in the need of information about the DOS era again, Vogons is the place to go IMHO.

People should like Epic for giving more money to developers than Steam.

They give more money to publishers* That may or may not translate into more money for the developers, but seeing how the industry is going, I’m more inclined to believe devs don’t see a cent from the extra cut in most cases.

Sounds like regular alcohol to me.

You could post a collage of all 364 screenshots together, but that must be quite a bit of work.

You’re getting very close to 365, have anything special in mind for that day?

I hate the old before-my-time ‘tank controls’

Yeah, now I feel old. Crow Country is a nice little game, very nostalgic for old people like me ;p

I’m slowly making my way through Expedition 33 and loving every minute. I think I might be stuck for a while in a boss, will have to check a guide online.

Silent Hill 2 is such a great remake, I’m glad they decided to release it DRM-free. I played the original back in 2002 with a friend, but we were high as a kite and we were teenagers, so we didn’t really understand the story that well. When I played the remake in October I ended up crying, it’s a fucked up situation.

I spent months watching people play it for the first time on Twitch, quite entertaining and enlightening to see how differently everyone reacted to it. The thing every player had in common was that they started it thinking it was a cool, scary game (which it is) and ended up finding so much more. A masterpiece IMHO.

As always, thank you for your great post.

I’m one of those who have 10 or less games installed, because having more would only be detrimental to my experience. I’d be unable to choose and then I’d play even less than I already do lately.

P.S.: Thank you for the interview, very interesting.

My ex’s chihuahua. We were walking him at this park one day, the park had a few walls that were like 20 to 30cm high that had grass fields on top. He looks at one of the walls from afar and decides he’s jumping it. He starts sprinting with confidence, head held high, but when he arrives he jumps forward instead of upwards and smashes his face against the wall. Only his pride was hurt, but I nearly died of laughter, I couldn’t help it.

Maybe I’m wrong, but I think there’s going to be a crash in the industry sooner rather than later. The situation is becoming unsustainable.

This is great news! Pretty awesome remake.

One of my cats always starts asking for food 2 hours before lunch/dinner time, and he does it as if he was on the brink of starvation. He drills your brain in the hopes of getting food earlier, and I mean drill, he doesn’t shut up.

I’ve always enjoyed trying new technologies such as Ray Tracing or HDR, but all in all I agree with you, gameplay comes first. That’s why I’ve been falling in love with indie games more and more.

I own a NEC CRT and I use it even for modern games every now and then. I beat Silent Hill 2 Remake on it last year and it looks great. I can’t remember which resolution it was, but I only lost a bit of screen on top and bottom so it was playable even if the game didn’t come with 4:3 support.

I’ve been a PC player for 2 decades now, but it’s getting so expensive! I can’t go back to consoles after being so free, but high end PC gaming is probably over for me. I feel one of my biggest mistakes was buying my first 1440p monitor, everything gets more expensive and I put myself in that position.

highly recommended if you have the space.

And the money. Especially if you game on PC.

Since you love underwater settings, you probably know already, but Subnautica 2’s Early Access was announced not long ago. I’ll wait until it’s complete, but given their track record, I feel it’s a game many people will be comfortable buying in EA to give feedback.

One of my cats loves rice milk. I’ve caught her drinking from my glass a couple of times, so now I pour a bit on a plate for her.

I’m currently replaying the original trilogy on my New 3DS, lovely games.

You’re not alone, I loved 2016, but I couldn’t finish Eternal. All that platforming diluted the essence that made Doom fun IMO.
