Oh, Ronnie.

I never finished this game, the fact that you couldn’t level up your companions was bizarre and game breaking for me. Later on in the game I remember them being a brief distraction for enemies before dying, then it was all up to me. Baffling design decision I couldn’t get past.

The art director for Dishonoured worked on Half-Life 2.

I’m sure it does, I only ask because Journey was one of the more interesting multi-player experiences I’ve played and I wanted something like that again. I’m sure I’ll still grab this in the coming weeks. At the very least, games like this are such a great palette cleanser for me, and at their best can be wonderful…

No multi-player like Journey had, then?

I’ve seen news reports that PoodleCorp have DDo-essed the servers again, I thought that’s why it was down?

Ahhh, this is one that Le Sean Thomas is behind. Looks great!

Uhhhh, Olly Moss would like a word with this guy...

31 year old here. While I’m not really into it, I don’t think it’s pure awful but I don’t think it’s aimed at me either. The only gaming youtuber I’ve ever liked is Many A True Nerd, but even then I’ve only watched his Fallout videos.

The wikipedia page for Playdead says it’s a time-limited exclusive release, so sounds like it will be. Although it’s up to you how reliable that info is.

As someone with resting I’m-gonna-smack-you face, you two don’t you were born.

He also has those nifty interactive fade-away anatomy images that go from photo to drawing.

Awesome. I would have sold my soul AND my Granny for a teacher like this when I was at school.

The Carob Nut Hut, obvs.

I also found that the enemies would barely pay any attention to your companions. Like, I could be the other side of the room, Sam would be making his way across to me right in the open, yet EVERYONE is gunning for me.

I did the exact same thing, amazed to this day I didn’t paralyse myself.

I think that’s a big hole in the floor, not a pool of water. Unless we’re looking at different images?

So, the only decent anti-rad gear I have is the hazmat suit, which looks ugly and is poor for combat. Will I need to be wearing it a lot?

Maybe watch that scene again, Jon struggles to even look Ollie in the eye. And that hesitation isn’t simply to give Ollie time to talk ( I think that’s part of the reason, he wants some kind of closure or resolution from him) but also, he’s physically shuddering at the effort of going through with cutting the rope.…

Obligatory question. I’ve never played a Persona game in my life, but I’ve heard good things about them and might fancy some JRPG madness sometime in the future. Am I likely to be bamboozled if I skip the previous installments?
