Looks a bit soon to say too much about it except that its graphics do look a little more sophisticated than 7D2D. If Dead Matter let's me do what I can do in 7D2D minus the zombies' being able to punch through any and every kind of building material devised by Man, then I'm all in.

How did you resist the urge to write "There's also a video of their Lovecrafting system ..."?

I'm so happy to see this game is being well received on Steam!

I'm tempted by the "if ya ain't got skill, you can use strategy" thing. 'Cause folks, I just ain't got skill. I enjoy (by which I mean I need) games where I have the freedom to figure out something other than a full-on frontal fusillade. This is one to wishlist and watch.

All this reminds me that I switched to the stable client some time back. Probs time to come back to the beta.

Quoting: GuestThe recent reviews on steam seem to be a wall of disappointment https://steamcommunity.com/app/253250/reviews/?browsefilter=mostrecent [External Link]

Huzzah! (Fuck the oath-breakers).

P.S.

How do you like your eggs in the morning? We love it when we pay extra and then they're thrown at us.

Nice turn of phrase, Liam. Puts me in mind of the sort of thing I see on RPS!

Quoting: liamYou can see some gameplay below:

Oh no I won't!! Lol. I've got just a smidge fewer than 250 hours in the first one and still go back into completed games just to run about cleaving zombies. It's therapeutic. Watching anything about DL2---without Techland's assurances that it'll be coming to Linux---is simply too painful for me to contemplate.

Looks like it might be fun! I'll have to go back and skim Lovecraft though, see if there's a lot of heavy breathing mentioned. The guy in the game looks like he's hyperventilating. Seriously, though. There are ever more bad attempts to make Lovecraftian games. This doesn't look like it's one of those.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyI believe what Eike is getting at is that there are cases in which free speech creates actual harm.

That's my takeaway from Eike's latest post as well---and now that I know English is not Eike's first language, I can see that what I thought might be glib generalizations was in fact mere linguistic awkwardness.

Likely Eike's responses to my initial posts were similarly hobbled by Eike's limited command of English. Had I been aware, I would have never even replied.

And yes, I'm quite aware of the "dark" side, if you will, of free speech/expression---and I feel like that's the precisely why Valve has wisely reserved the right to remove content at their discretion---it's their company, so it's their call.
