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?

Interesting read though. 
Indeed....

Game Developer Writes Utter Drivel On A Blog

In His Defence 
I think the point he was trying to make is actually similar to the classic rule of: before you make a game, you need to make a toy; i.e. something that's fun to fuck around with freely, but then you layer the gamey stuff (challenge/goals/contraints etc.) on top of that.

He just forgot to add the second part I think.

Or maybe he just really likes cutscenes. I dunno. 
I Like CZG! 
 
 
What he is advocating for is 'interactive stories', which I think is fine in the realm of entertainment media and I'm sure there is a market for who want that sort of thing... just don't try and call it a game if you want to push the gameplay to the side. 
 
Legend of Dungeon
Check this kickstarter shit out. Pixel art rogue-like, but it's got swanky normal-maps and lighting. Looks rad. 
 
 
btw, obviously not what starbuck is talking about, it just caught my eye. 
That Does Look Nice 
I Hope 
they will turn down the retardedly colored lighting 
Kak

Black Snow 
Is a high quality HL2-EP2 mod that you definitely want to have a look at if you like "The Thing".

Very much a horror puzzle/exploration game, only played about an hour of it and its excellent. Very creepy with tense moments. No combat so far but never say never.

Dota 2 Madafakaz 
here's the key if anyone wants it. being dota2, you need steam to activate it.

Dishonoured. 
The textures still suck asstacularly. But that's about it.....the rest rocks so far.

They've blended what Crysis etc did so well with making gameplay fun, with some of the stuff that worked in Deus Ex (but not so anally retentive) - dump you in a mission with a million paths through it, give you lots of toys to play with (including movement options on the fly) and let you get on with it. It's the polar opposite of the ghastly interactive turd hand-holding military-shouting bore-a-thons of COD - actually allowing a player to PLAY a game and making most of the options fairly natural to do so. Blink is bloody awesome and one of the most fun things in FPS gaming for a long time.

Aside from that it does exactly what it promises on the tin (of pickled hagfish). Just watch the Youtube videos and play the damn thing.
