It seems to be easier with the mouse. But iirc they later patched it for consoles to make lock picking easier because a lot of people struggled.

I tried two older Stalker games way back but I’m not much of a horror fan and I just wasn’t good enough, so I didn’t play the games much. A-Life sounds quite interesting. Let’s hope they can fix it faster than CDPR fixed Cyberpunk.

I was looking forward to the launch but feared it might come out in the state it did. I’ll probably wait until summer and hope KCD2 will have a better launch… and run on linux.

I had about 6 complete playthroughs and played ever race/origin prologue combo. Even made game the main topic back when I was in college and had a game design course. It was something completely new for it’s time. Sadly I think it aged quite badly if you look at some mechanics, animations and even partly graphics. At least that’s what came to my mind when I replayed Mass Effect 1 when the remaster launched. In my memory it was a better game.

DA:O is still one of my favourite RPGs. I didn’t like the two successors that much but the overarching story is quite intriguing to me. Sadly there has been a lot of staff shuffling regarding DA4. That’s usually not a very good sign. I appreciate the lack of EA exclusivity and Denuvo but I’ll still wait until some reviews are out. Remember kids: no preorders.

I liked Varic in 2 but that’s about it. The asset recycling was absolutely mad.

CEOs and other higher-ups being completely out of touch is nothing new though.

Judging by todays standards of microtransactions, horse armour is pretty tame tbh. That’s not saying that this shit is okay.

If Baldurs Gate 3 taught us anything, it is that good voice acting is incredibly important and can’t be replaced by AI.

It’s been delayed so much… I’m highly sceptical that it will release in a good state, if at all.

I played every origin story in DA:O and finished the game 4 times. Even chose this game for the game dev course back in uni. Good memories. Sadly the successors weren’t as good.
