- Comment on Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 takes Best Game award at 2026 BAFTA Games Awards but shares spotlight with Dispatch with 3 wins each 3 days ago:
Glad Blue Prince got an award at least. Crazy is wasn’t nominated for music though, I thought its OST was absolutely banging. I mean just listen to this extended version of History Suspended they just dropped.

I really hope this doesn’t fall under the radar because of Pragmata. Looks like a blast. I’m tempted to day one it but I have enough on my plate recently, and I foolishly bought Death Howl recently so I should think twice about spending on a new game probably.
- Comment on Disney yank a bunch of games from Steam, including bonafide classics Star Wars: Dark Forces, Outlaws and High School Musical 3: Senior Year Dance 1 week ago:
I really wish we got some Kyle Katarn movies instead of the Disney sequel saga…
- Comment on "This is the most reasonable and wise thing to do": survival shooter Road to Vostok's dev plans to recharge a bit before tackling fixes and larger updates 1 week ago:
What they really need is more developers, it sounds like. I’m really happy about the success but to me it sounds like the game is still too close for comfort to solo dev territory considering the scope and ambition. With all the early access success they can surely scale up to a small team now?
- Comment on Just played AC Odyssey ...Currently playing Origins. Is there any games out there like the AC stuff. Also like finding new stuff and location. 1 week ago:
Ghost of Tsushima is basically just honorary Assassin’s Creed, so you could play that.
Rise of the Ronin is also underrated, it’s basically a Ghost of Tsushima with better combat but worse everything else. But still has you covered on the open world slop front.
Both these games have tons of checklist stuff on the map to do and camps to clear and so on.

It sounds like OP isn’t after stealth action so much as open world slop. I don’t really think there is a huge overlap between AC and Deus Ex or Dishonored for example.

What’s the AI like? The last playtest I played they were so braindead basic it wasn’t a whole lot of fun to actually play.
- Comment on Tlatoani: Aztec Cities has fully released! 2 weeks ago:
Cool! I’m not in the market for a city builder at the moment, but I have always felt like mesoamerican themes are sorely underutilized in gaming.
- Comment on Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 1 2 years ago:
When was the last major Rockstar release that came out simultaneously on consoles and PC? Max Payne 3 maybe? I assume it will be console exclusive and then PC a year later.
- Comment on Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.1 Patch Notes 2 years ago:
I don’t know, I think it’s more down to personal preference than that. I get that competitive FPS players want to push frame rates as high as possible, but for me personally I have the exact opposite opinion as you. I have no real need to chase hundreds of FPS, at a stable 60 games feel smooth enough (maybe my eyes are bad). On the other hand, several games have a dramatic improvement in presentation with Ray Tracing on, in my opinion, which I value a lot. Both Cyberpunk and Alan Wake 2 for example look notably better with RT on.
- Comment on Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.1 Announced for Next Week 2 years ago:
I forgot, you also probably want to get a modded timescale. I made my own custom one, but if you use vanilla you risk getting on the train at midnight and coming back home at sunrise. Here are some to choose from if you don’t want to set up your own.
- Comment on Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.1 Announced for Next Week 2 years ago:
I believe i was using this one.
I also recommended basically all of deceptious’ mods if you’re after immersion, he does some of the best work on the Nexus in that department.
- Comment on Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.1 Announced for Next Week 2 years ago:
I used the modded Metro System for my playthrough along with a mod that adds basic primary needs (hunger/thirst/sleep). Many of my favourite moments were realising it was late after doing a gig, hopping on the metro and watching the city as I rode back to the apartment for a night’s sleep.
Small things like that really help me with immersion, so I’m really happy they added this officially.

I always loved the Legally Distinct Massive Attack - Angel from Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines. Rik Schaffer was on fire for that whole soundtrack.

- Comment on Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl Has Entered the Final Phase of Development and Reveals New Trailer 2 years ago:
I’m not convinced by what I’ve seen just yet, but I’m happy we’re getting a game at all and I’m trying to be hopeful. Every fiber in my being is wishing for this to end up a GotY slamdunk after all the developers have been through.
I loved Shadow of Chernobyl and I probably have a couple hundred hours in Anomaly so I will but it regardless, not least to show my support.
- Comment on Baldur’s Gate 3 Patch 5 Adds New Playable Epilogue With 3,589 Lines of Extra Dialogue, Much More 2 years ago:
There are so many other games to play that I’m still probably on the plan to postpone my second playthrough until the Definitive Edition comes out (probably next summer), but this is a much needed patch.
The way Larian describes the new epilogue, I’m thinking this is them re-adding some of the “17 000 endings” they were talking about pre launch. In any case, more and better epilogues were sorely needed so this is great.
Hopefully they can keep salvaging cut content and polish up Act 3 until it reaches the same quality of the other two.
- Comment on About the Disco Elysium Investigation 2 years ago:
It brings up some valid points about how the PeopleMakeGames video frames the issues, as well as criticizes how they press the creator of the IP very hard while being extremely lenient in their interview with the corporate suit who did the takeover.
While the PMG video is very impressive (at least the first half of it), it derails toward the end in a way that sadly might influence the opinion of many viewers. Even if the allegations are all true and Robert Kurvitz actually was a terrible boss who was a bit of a jerk and created a toxic workplace environment, that does not mean he deserves to have his IP stolen from out under him.
