Tanking with shields (force/kinetic shields in sci-fi games, not physical shields)
I liked when games let you face-tank damage with your shield (like in Mass Effect, before Andromeda where they made shields weak af and even removed shield gating) and not having to care for healing (unless you lose all your shields)
I don’t know if it’s due to the souls-like trend, but it feels like game developers need to make punitive games nowadays
I just hope for a mod to bypass them
Cool, I love it when games allow to turn off some QTE and stuff like that, it’s great for accessibility
Thanks, I think I’m gonna take it anyway, but I’ll wait for a GOG release (when all episodes are available)
I don’t trust episodic games and DRM, I’ve seen too many issues of people locked out of their games/episodes
Are the “minigames” not too tedious ? I love Telltale games, for the story. I really disliked when they tried to implement too much “active gameplay” like they did with the last season of The Walking Dead (which had more shooting / action sequence), or The Expanse that felts like a walking simulator with barely any story
Still glad they’re making a good comeback
Some people like mindless FPS à la CoD, others like narrative games, others puking blood playing souls-like games
I wonder how long AI will be able to stretch out clickbait titles, soon they will be longer than the few words needed to tell the content of the article
Telltale (a decade ago) could have made a great story-focused game in the ME universe, Bioware didn’t even need to sell the IP for that
It’s resting since 2012, not peacefully though :/
They first zombified it in 2017 and now they’re poking its corpse every few years on the 7th of november
LucasArt’s Full Throttle ?
Bioware used to be able to make good AAA games quickly :
With epic soundtrack, voice acting, cinematography, …
Even an independant (back then) studio like CD Projekt “only” needed 4 years between each Witcher game (2007, 2011, 2015), while making their own engine for the 2nd and 3rd
I don’t know where the years get lost in game development nowadays, except pre-production (lack of direction/managment) and… “open world”
I was expecting an (action-oriented) RPG and it’s a stealth game instead 🫤 I’m gonna “wish-unlist” it 😞
Can’t wait to get in on GOG 🤞
Yeah I get the pop up, check always allow but it’s still not working
I get the same issue with widgets on Fossify Launcher (but not Nova or OneUI) and sadly the other FOSS launchers are really too minimamist for my use
I tried it multiple times but I can’t add a single widget :/

Meh, I mean the gameplay is nice but Bioware hasn’t been able to write a good game for more than a decade, I don’t expect anything from them anymore
Anthem
(For history purpose, just like there are museums for the Holocaust or the WTC)
Just in case, 3 games in a 6 year span means a game every 3 years, not every 2 years
Ex: TW4 in 2027, TW5 in 2030, TW6 in 2033
They took 4 years between games for the first trilogy, while creating their own engine for TW2 and TW3
