I have given up on Enderal. I wasn't really feeling like playing more, but I decided to load up my save anyway, only for it to get stuck on the loading screen. The game has had far too many game-breaking bugs in the short amount of time I've played and I've lost any interest in trying to make...

I played a little bit of Death Crown, a very minimalist real time strategy game. Each map is about two dozen hexes, with your castle on one side and the enemy castle on the other side. You can build one of three buildings on a hex next to one of your buildings: a mine, a barracks or a tower...

I played the demo for Berry Bury Berry today, which looks like it fits in this category as well. It describes itself as an "incremental" game, which is like a clicker game but with a bit more involved mechanics than just clicking. In this case, it's about grabbing berries off of a bush and...

Note that Windirstat was abandoned for 19 years. There are alternatives that (supposedly) work much better and faster.

There's one like that with EMP cannons which I didn't disable before liberating it, but those were only a slight inconvenience.

The new Epic freebies this week: Nobody Wants to Die Lose yourself in the dystopian world of New York, 2329. In this interactive noir story, lead the investigation using advanced technology as Detective James Karra, who risks it all in pursuit of a serial killer targeting the city’s elite...

No, JC3 just has the tethers.

I opened Steam yesterday and saw a recommendation for Feed the Scorchpot, a "table-top roguelike" that looked interesting, so I tried the demo. The tutorial is well done and the game is fairly easy to grasp, but my first few attempts failed on the easiest difficulty setting. It took a bit for...

One thing I've learned so far: this game is a bit more difficult than Skyrim and I wouldn't recommend increasing the difficulty to expert or higher from the start. I was unable to kill anything stronger than a crab without cheesing. Also, stealth might be broken eventually, but just like in...

It's not that I'm playing reluctantly, blowing stuff up is still fun, but I think I'll just do the last two missions next time I play and move on to the next game. EDIT: I finished the game. A tip for the last mission: you can still request vehicles and weapons during the mission. I hadn't...

$10,000 a day is crazy. Our cat needed a multi-hour surgery after being hit by a car that required the hospital to call an expert in Italy for advice during and it only cost us €3000.

I was a bit too optimistic about how close to the end I was. I just counted and there are two dozen outposts/towns left to liberate and that was after spending an hour mostly liberating a bunch of them.

I tried using jets to take out an outpost again. I did a better job of avoiding SAMs this time, they can't really hit me as long as I keep moving. However, hitting small targets or ones that are kind of hidden can be a real pain, so I ended up having to jump out and shoot them on foot anyway. I...

There's a thread for that too: https://forums.pcgamer.com/threads/what-past-game-deserves-a-sequel-that-hasnt-had-one-yet-2024.143715/

The Warlock's main draw is Repelling Blast, which pushes enemies back 10 feet without a save, you just have to hit one attack (and he gets extra attacks at higher levels). He also has quite a few area attacks and control spells that can be really useful. He's typically more useful than Shadowheart.
