Does this one have a safe mode like SOMA or is it like the original Amnesia?

Some of the reviews I've seen mentioned it has no safe mode this time around. It maybe could be added post-launch, but apparently the monsters are kinda important to the story, so it'd be pretty hard to cut them out for a safe mode.

My statement still fits though, since PC3 is just an arcade racer now mostly.

From what I've seen from reviews and what not, Project Cars 3 winning the Best Simulation award is insanely funny.

An niche of a genre way overdone lately, and then done in what looks like MS Paint? I don't know what this dev was thinking.

Bluedrake42 is super into hardcore tactical shooters and the older style Battlefield games. Warfare 1944 is mostly (from what I can gather) a proof of concept thing for the OHDCore Framework thing the dev studio he started is using for Operation Harsh Doorstop which will be a F2P game (and basically a Battlefield 1942 game, with more hardcore realism stuff in it) running on said OHDCore for Unreal Engine 4. He wants to prove someone can make a quality, F2P game, that's also hardcore and tactical in 202x. I think. Sometimes it's hard to follow what Bluedrake42 says and does on his Youtube channels lol

I literally feel like my brain would melt playing this at my advanced age. But I also give them props for actually including some science terms in the trailer lol "heat birth of the universe" interesting way of saying Big Bang, but sure I'll take it!

How about fixing the AI?? Jesus christ, they better have an AI fix in this release, because the game is insane at this point.

Yeah, to bad Tripwire has gone full EGS now though, and Chivalry will only be on EGS (for a year I assume). Sigh, was looking forward to it.

Literally the only company facetious enough to market taking content away as a feature...

Well I won't speak to their humor on it, but as for removing content, they are getting to the point they have no choice it seems. The engine and underlying systems of the game can't just take adding new content over and over anymore according to some speculation from people and apparently a leak from Bungie awhile back sorta confirmed this. Which is why they are doing this vault thing, which I imagine will be a separate install or client altogether. Plus there is plenty of legacy content from before Forsaken came out even, that is barely touched unless you are just grinding materials or bounties etc nowadays. So they could do worse than "remove" that content (and put it elsewhere for those who do want to play it). And they are also adding Destiny 1 content to that vault thingy, which I'm all for as someone who never played D1.

Ohhh... makes sense when I think of the controls, I was thinking it was some kind of reference to the graphics and that had me confused.

Oh I thought you literally meant you didn't know Halo had those other games, not that you didn't know what a twin stick shooter is. As mentioned, it's just a top down or isometric (usually) shooter where on console you use both sticks to shoot and aim, and on PC you can use the mouse or mouse and keyboard to do it.

Oh goodie, I bet it's another twin stick shooter then. Bleh.

I don't understand the reference, "twin stick shooter"?

Halo: Spartan Assault and Halo: Spartan Strike are both twin stick shooters released in 2013 and 2015 respectively.

Oh goodie, I bet it's another twin stick shooter then. Bleh.

Well after WRC 8 was yanked off Steam literally a day before launch last year and it seems we're not getting WRC 9 either on Steam, I guess Codemasters having the rights means we might actually get WRC games back on Steam instead of EGS for a year wait. I'm still waiting for WRC 8 to launch on Steam, I think it's in August but I haven't followed it since pulled that garbage before launch.

Considering how MK11 actually ended, not sure how things move forward after this "story" wise. But I mean, it's MK, they could do anything they want really. I'm just pumped that freaking Peter Weller himself is coming back for Robocop and that the original actor for Shang Tsung in the MK movie is doing the voice etc for him in the game now. I just think that's really cool.

Wow, so they used Steam users for the alpha and beta testing (which I was part of) and then 2 fucking weeks before release on Steam, pull it and make it EGS exclusive. Great, that's just awesome Coffee Stain. Guess I won't be buying anymore of your games now either. And I really liked Huntdown from what I played of it, shame.

Yeah, I'd never play a game like this in VR. I'd literally be afraid it might cause a bleed in my brain. Also if this is a real thing, maybe don't announce it on the dumbest day of the year? Just saying, especially with a dude fake puking in your trailer for it lol

Yeah they can still go screw themselves over WRC 8. I love the WRC games and was looking forward to 8 quite a bit, but then literally a few days before release they pull it from Steam and announce EGS only. F off with that shady crap. No thanks.

I really hope the Devolver thing they do is as insane as the last few E3 "shows" they've done. Man, I'm kinda bummed if they don't continue the "story" they have going lol

Hallowed are the Ori.

No wait, that's not right...

Heh, I've been saying that in comments on Youtube for a few days now on videos for the game. Surprisingly I got a few responses who knew what the reference was from. Long live Stargate SG-1 !!!

I wish it was the Penumbra series instead.
Hopefully it's better than the second Amnesia which I quickly lost interest in.

With that exception I've loved all of their games.

To be fair, Fricitional didn't make the 2nd Amnesia. The Chinese Room did (I think that was their name if my memory serves). Fricitional only published the game.

I'm still playing it, just not on PC because of the whole EGS dumpster fire they pulled. If it came to Steam, I'd buy it again - unless it was full price which it shouldn't be after a year or more.
