Func_Msgboard: Other PC Games Thread.

So with the film and music threads still going and being discussed... why don't we get some discussion going on something on topic to the board? What other games are you playing now?

Ghost Of A Tale

aka Mouse Souls: Prepare To Styx Edition.

Basically if what you really want in gaming is a direct combination of Styx (gameplay mechanics), Wind In The Willows (characters and theme) and a hint of Dark Souls (map unfolding and occasional traps), then this is the game you've been waiting for. And it's actually really well done, if you don't mind slow gameplay as your routes and quests slowwwly unfold. The setting and plot are good (although the game world is tiny), the control system is refreshingly direct and responsive, and the mouse Tilo is endearingly cute and well animated. There's a few issues: some graphical glitches, textures are a bit busy, night time is very gloomy, navigating the world is slow, and it really could have done with voice acting - not least because the characters and dialogue are pretty good. But I really liked it (and I am not a fan of cartoony cuteness) and reckon it's worth a look...

It's Also On Sale Right Now

Hey, I think I saw that game in one of Ross Scott's videos recently. One more for the pile of free games from the Bundle, then.

Thanks

I don't know if it is worth playing for you. I haven't played it myself either. The reviews at GOG or Steam or the like seem mostly positive, though.

Sorry I Fucked Up The Title In The Previous Post

#10368 posted by Kingold on 2018/04/21 14:25:46

Is there any way to correct that? Thanks.

Yes It Is Worth Playing.

It's not that deep / gripping, it's a quite repetitive, but it plays well, the gameworld and style are nice and the music is really good.

I have no regrets when I got it full price.

Welcome to idiotville, popular: you. It is a horrible mishmash of cliches served up with a naff style, appalling marketing and ott motion blur and explosions obfuscating everything.

#10381 posted by muk on 2018/05/16 10:46:30

being the most popular idiot in idiotville doesnt sound like a bad deal. like i could be the biggest idiot in idiotville? but im actually the most popular so this is an honor.

Knob!

Thats A Gameplay Trailer?

#10384 posted by starbuck on 2018/05/16 19:34:57

didn't have much gameplay. Well put together trailer though admittedly it is quite cliched.

The shooty shooty gun bits looked punchy enough, but would have to see more footage to be sure.

I Think The Trailer Did A Great Job....

#10385 posted by Shambler on 2018/05/19 10:45:34

...it's saved me £40 for sure.

#10386 posted by mankrip on 2018/05/20 03:07:44

By now, id's business plan seems to use each franchise for a different public.

Doom is their core singleplayer franchise.
Quake is their multiplayer franchise.
Wolfenstein is their story-driven franchise.

So, what will Rage be? Their sandbox/open-world franchise?

And most importantly, when will we get a Commander Keen reboot?
