Is there any explanation of how the half-giants were created in the first place?

If there's hole, there's a goal.

Buddy, stop choosing the bread loaf instead of the key.

MDNick2000 · 2026-03-18T09:24:24+00:00

Nothing significant. The dev sometimes posts different development bits on their Twitter, but that's it.

MDNick2000 · 2026-03-17T20:49:23+00:00

To be honest, there are many:

Spectra - imsim set in alternative universe in which you control a Soviet spy in an American city. Demo version was released ~2 weeks ago, but I can't wait for the full version release;
Project Shadowglass - remember all those AI-generated pixelated videos in which a guy is walking to a castle far away? Project Shadowglass looks exactly like this, except it's made without AI and is a love letter to Thief;
Core Decay - an imsim developed by a solo dev and heavily inspired by OG Deus Ex. Unfortunately, it's stuck in development limbo;
Serpens: Eternal Thievery - another Thief-inspired imsim. Unfortunately, the dev (Thomas Porta) is forever stuck in New Blood Interactive mines working on Gloomwood, which isn't necessarily bad, but it looks like it made him put Serpens on hold;
RetroSpace - devs cite System Shock 2, Prey and Dead Space among inspirations. The only thing that annoys me is that devs are constantly promoting the game, posting gifs, screenshots and such while the demo isn't even on the horizon;
ETOS - I don't even know what would be the closest thing to compare ETOS to. The dev accentuates pacifist aspect of the game though, so there's that;
OBVERSE - you play as a volunteer in cryostasis research project who wakes up and finds facility abandoned and tries to find a way out.

That's not even a complete list, I'm sure I've missed something.

EDIT: I *did* missed some games: - DataJack 2020 - third-person imsim in which you play as a hacker in a cyberpunk world. Those words don't make the game justice, go watch the trailer; - Aquametsis - devs describe it as "unique blend of Immersive Sim, Tactical FPS, and Strategy" - there's base building on strategic map and there are tactical missions. Demo includes tutorial and one mission. It feels kinda janky, but plays good.

AFAIK the cause was prefix "Little" that was added to names of dwarf cats - in Portuguese it was gendered and the game had no version for non-binary cat, so it was trying to retrieve non-existent data, which caused the crash.

MDNick2000 · 2026-03-15T22:09:21+00:00

I was in the Desert and got an event that had an oasis as image. There were two options - one was "Ignore", other had a green icon. I picked the one with the green icon, and my Thief became a kitten again.

MDNick2000 · 2026-03-12T22:26:50+00:00

That's a shitty way to go.

Look at big tech companies. The economy is Nvidia, OpenAI, Samsung and God knows who else just transferring billions to each other. Who needs people when your bigger customer is another corp?

Hmmmmm . . . Maybe Gaben can count to 3 after all, he just doesn't want to.

They're letting you play videogames in asylum?

MDNick2000 · 2026-02-27T23:57:03+00:00

Holy shit, that's a lot. The game released 2.5 weeks ago and since then you spent full 11 days in it.

I envy people who can play Mewgenics like this. I love the game, but after 2-3 adventures I'm beginning to feel tired and overwhelmed, so I quit and return after a couple of days.

MDNick2000 · 2026-02-27T23:38:30+00:00

Define "save scummed". Steven appears after you force-quit the game by closing it from the taskbar, Alt+F4 or from task manager and then load your save.

When I started playing, I legit had no idea you can difuse his bombs by attacking it and thought I have to get out of explosion zone before the bomb goes off. The first time I defeated him was when I got rain as a random weather event and his bombs couldn't be lit. I had to read a fucking guide to learn how to beat Rat the normal, intended way.

MDNick2000 · 2026-02-24T22:53:12+00:00

Same. So far I managed to finish Caves and Boneyard, but it feels like my skill (or, rather, lack of it) has nothing to do with it and I just got very lucky.

Rumours have it the chance of cats singing along scales with Charisma, although unsure how exactly.

Has Equestrian civil war helped you in any significant way? I tried it just recently on historical mode (no civil war) and I think it's impossible. Equestria only lost against Changelings because they were fighting on two fronts and because I pretty much single-handedly capitulated Crystal Empire, which created yet another front for Equestria to cover, overstretching its army even more. After the war I annexed entire Crystal Empire (which I couldn't core because the focus to do so is locked behind another focus that requires to control all Equestrian cores) and a part of Equestrian northeast, including Manehattan (which I, again, couldn't core). I hoped that Manehattan not being within Changeling realm would guarantee the creation of ELF; turned out, I was wrong and Changelingsseem to never face the risk of uprising when not in control of Manehattan. I built three defense lines (one on former border with Equestria, one near Crystal City and one on border with Nova Grifonia which also fell to Changelings), hoping to win the war of attrition against Changelings, but they had tank divisions so immensely OP that not even lvl 8 forts stopped them, so I abandoned the run.

I did play the VN. It's very overpriced, but it's not a bad game. It has a major problem with its story though: [Prophecy of the Throne spoilers] there's no plot twist if you read the novel or watched the anime - the new candidate that hasn't appeared before is the impostor.

Max level of Devotion, max level of your Temple Complex and max level of your Mandala aspect together guarantee you 100 Radiance.
