This looks pretty neat. Not quite sure if it's my thing exactly, but it may be; definitely thinking of giving it a try.

This is now the third game I've seen mentioned at GoL with "dorf" in the name.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyI really like the look of this but I'm not sure I could play it. Seeing all the stuff bouncing around, maybe falling off, maybe getting damaged, just makes me wince. Especially the piano! I kept going AAAGGHH that poor piano noooo!

Well, then YOU can do a better job driving. No seriously, you can presumably go extremely slowly to give this piano the safe run it deserves. 😁

Also wondering if anyone in this game has heard of tying things down.

I don't know why, but something about the tone of that quote makes it feel like the DLC was written by people who have never been to England. Hope I'm wrong.

Those graphics are not good. Meanwhile, it looks like an interesting level of complexity, but maybe too high to really use in real time with fights as big as some of the fights in the trailer are. So I dunno, I'd want to wait and see what people who play it think.

Quoting: PenglingTo be fair, "immersive" doesn't equate to "realistic"; Though I'm not sure if this particular game would provide that for me personally (I'm not into RPGs), something fantastical and whimsical can easily be immersive and absorbing. :smile:

You're right, "immersive" means that you can picture yourself as being the character you're playing.

I don't think that's the only reasonable way to construe "immersive". Arguably, "immersive" could also mean the game gives an experience that can absorb you for some time in the game world, making you forget the outside world. This might not require picturing yourself as the character. So for instance, if a game has a good deal of content and texture that interests you, along with play that engages you, you could become "immersed" in the game even if there is no "character you're playing". I find Civilization immersive, but not because I'm picturing myself as being Rome.

This, along with some earlier shenanigans I only vaguely remember at this time, kind of undermines the value proposition of a Humble Bundle for me. I didn't do Humble Bundles often, but when I did, it was because they were . . . humble. I don't really like the basic idea of buying a bunch of games together; I'm picky about games, so in any given bundle there would be few enough I liked that it wasn't actually a great deal, and I'd get all this unwanted clutter along with them. So if I was buying a Bundle, it was to support indies or underdogs or something; I was buying smugness. Clearly, Humble Bundles now come bundled with zero, or even negative, smugness, which makes them worthless to me.

So, all active desire to boycott aside, Humble Bundles have stopped being a thing I'm going to want to buy.

Quoting: dpanterGamers bailing on Humble Bundle is sure to fix everything wrong here, for sure, definitely. IGN (Ziff Davis) is absolutely going to notice that sharp protest and make it right. Yes sir, 100%. If everyone drops HB then it can get killed as well.

Spoiler, click me

Is it sarcasm? It is. Which you already know but read this spoiler anyway... :cry:

Frankly, I'm fine with hurting 'em whether it solves anything or not.

Watching the stuff happening is kind of hypnotic.

No chocolate though.
