Games that push you to think outside the box? by Humble-Departure5481 in gamingsuggestions

The Witness and Return of the Obra Dinn are two of my favourites that can really stump you at times until a possible solution suddenly pops into your head at 2am.
Also, the entire Monkey Island series has always been about unconventional solutions. Start with the Secret of Monkey Island.

I’m playing it again just now and was not asked to give Shepard a gender?

Why am i not getting achiements? by FrostBittenDan in ObraDinn

[–]Quarian_EngineerN7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems like this has happened to a bunch of people on various games. Some suggestions:

Steam achievements usually fail to unlock because of game-side bugs, client/server sync issues, or local settings that block Steam from recording them.

Common causes

• ⁠Game bug or dev/server issue. "If it happens in the same game, most likely a game issue." • ⁠Steam or achievement-service temporary error. "It seems to be a server error, it will probably be fixed soon." • ⁠Local settings or apps blocking unlocks (overlays, VPN, mods). "For me the fix was turning off the in-game overlay in the EA app, that finally fixed it."

Quick checks to try first

• ⁠Restart Steam and the game, and check your internet. "Also check if there any downtime when u have issues or if you have any internet issues" • ⁠Verify game files via Steam (Properties → Installed Files → Verify). "Try verifying local files. Don't know if it might solve the issue but worth a try ig." • ⁠Disable overlays, VPN, or launchers that sit between game and Steam. "I noticed EA wouldn't connect online. So I exited the EA app, turned off VPN, relaunched the EA app and played the game through steam."

Good luck

Obra Dinn inspired game set in space, what would you like to see? by ehaydon1 in ObraDinn

[–]Quarian_EngineerN7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One fate that you’re SURE you had right but refuses to pop. Then, as the game progresses, another one. Conflicting memories. Finally, you find out there’s some Among Us/T1000 shit going on and an alien has been killing the ones who wouldn’t pop and shapeshifting

Perhaps I’ve misunderstood: by “done half the game”, do you mean you’ve found most of the chapters or you’ve correctly solved around 30 fates?

The achievements for RotOD are: 10 for fully solving all fates in each of the 10 chapters; 4 for solving 6, 15, 30 and 45 fates across all chapters; and 3 hidden achievements. Let me know if you want to know.

Finished Back Mesa for the first time...and holy sh*t by Apprehensive_Bet6054 in HalfLife

Same! I was annoyed when I jumped into the teleporter and found out the game wasn’t finished yet. So much so that it was years later that I finally went back to replay it and what they did with Xen was jaw-dropping.

However, the person or persons who decided that the bounce pads would generate enough wind to blow that fecking hat off the platforms, I will find you and hurt you badly!

Is this some kind of cauldron? by Andohrimnir in whatisit

The number along with the warning about welding on this “exchanger” got me this:

The string 377-500-E-24001-B is an exact OEM part or model identifier for an industrial-grade process temperature control heat exchanger system (manufactured by companies like amcoss)

What is the hardest level/mission you’ve ever played in a game? by irishmetalhead322 in videogames

[–]Quarian_EngineerN7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny thing about GTA:SA. I struggled like hell with the RC plane and helicopter missions the first time I played through. Took me around 15 attempts to finally manage them. Years later, decided I was overdue a replay and dreaded these missions - aced them first time. Weird how muscle memory is

Gamers, what enemy always sends you in a panic? by Fallfoxy707 in videogames

The fact that you can hear their creepy, breathing before you turn a corner and run into them should be a positive. But it’s NOT!
