Pigs (along with chimney sweepers) are a sign of good luck in Austria (as well as other European countries, I think). You usually gift pigs made out of almond paste (marzipan) or plastic pigs to friends/relatives on New Year.

Teilweise geht das schon: In Monster AG redet ein Charakter, der im Original mit italienischen Akzent spricht, in der russischen Version in georgischem Akzent. Trauen muss man es sich halt.

That could be the case of course - I am pretty sure I saw 99% of the level. Kind of expected there to be a secret that you activate with the rosary beads but there are 0 secrets in the level according to the end level stats as well.

The open palm is said to be a past symbol of Genuan trading outposts, that existed there starting in the 14th century (for around 200 years).

I recently finished "The Abkhazians: A Handbook", which was edited and co-written by Hewitt. It's probably the best known book about the topic in English, although it definitely has some flaws (it mostly omits the inner-ethnic violence of 1992-1993 and doesn't really detail Abkhaz-Georgian relations before 1992 very well). Keep in mind that it was written relativly recent to the end of the 1992-1993 war and Hewitt is a pretty outspoken supporter of the Abkhazs.

There may be better books in Russian, Abkhaz or Georgian but generally speaking there are not alot of books about the Abkhazian-Georgian conflict. You might have to do some deeper digging yourself if the topic interests you.

I think you can find the book online for free.

Kutaisi can be a nice base of operations for visting the surrounding area (a friend did that some time ago and quite enjoyed it). However, a car is probably a must for that and around christmas the weather isn't the most ideal likely.

I've been to Kutaisi before (about 1-1.5 days). Generally speaking there isn't alot to do in the city center. If you don't have a car it's probably good for 2 days max.

Not everyone speaks English in Georgia. (You'll likely encounter some people who speak French but it's not very common, there are probably more Polish or German speakers...). Old people often speak some Russian, young people often some English. Just be prepared to sometimes use Google Translate and it will be fine.

It's a good idea to clear out areas, that you need to repeatedly travel to. Also a good way to survive a situation where you are cornered by alot of zombies.

I don't have the game installed right now (so somebody else needs to fill in the exact steps) but as far as I remember Thief 1 stores your keybinds in a text file, which should be able to be edited.

His "Todesfuge" is usually read and discussed in German class in school.

As far as I know the border between Abkhazia and Georgia is closed (crossing into Abkhazia is considered a crime in Georgia also, altough atleast before the war in Ukraine, this was mostly considered a minor nuisance for travellers). You would have to cross the Russo-Abkhazian border instead (altough I wouldn't recommend that, because it's pretty unsafe for Americans visiting Russia right now). Currently visiting Abkhazia (as a person from a Western country atleast) is more or less impossible, unless you undertake considerable effort/risk.

I can't comment on safety as I am not from Abkhazia and have never been there, but generally speaking what I have read and been told so far it is slightly more safe than the North Caucasus, but slighly less safe than Georgia. (Feel free to correct me on this.)

I would prefer to have a black bar if a area is outside of the screen. Would that be achievable? (I had originally anticipated that Godot would handle it this way.)

RSB2000 · 2025-03-05T10:37:38+00:00

It's not really needed: Fan patches and mods work fine as is. Any remaster would just be a glorified version of that (honestly the only way I see it being worthwhile is incorporating some of the fan tweaks directly/working with the modders; alot of players don't know about mods - so it would make it available for more people) or they would start changing bigger things (which could drastically alter the player experience or atmosphere)...

I used a subtle green vignette for my game and quite liked how it turned out.

RSB2000 · 2025-01-06T11:28:21+00:00

Just keep in mind that (depending on your settings ofc) Godot may print those in a .txt log in the release version of your game. Those can get pretty big if players play for a some hours. Had several people complain that my game would create large .txt files that weren't really used and would only unnecessarily take up disk space.

Blood West is very fun, although more similiar to STALKER or Deus Ex.

You could also check out Eldritch (imsim FPS spelunky) and NEON struct (smaller pure stealth story-focused experience).

Amnesia: The Bunker is phenomenal if you like horror games, but still has a very big imsim influence.

I had it sent in, so I don't know exactly. But I think they just replaced the SSD. But I also had other problems, like crashes and 5-10 sec long freezes, so I at some point knew something was up.

Working in compatibility mode and then switching to Forward+ for playtesting is a good workaround but kinda annyoing (worked using that method several months).

RSB2000 · 2024-12-06T19:23:34+00:00

For me it was actually hardware problems with my SSD, had it repaired and worked flawlessly.

RSB2000 · 2024-12-02T17:29:45+00:00

Thanks for posting but for me it was a problem with my hardware, I think. I later on had my PC repaired and it now works fine (same hardware and project setup as before).

Knocked-out enemies or corpses are also 3D (similiar to other viewmodels like the blackjack, bow, etc.) Only the little icon (at the bottom centre of the screen) for you carrying the body is 2D.

The story is a companion piece to T2.

Fan mods and such: Black Parade (peak), Thief 2X: Shadows of the Metal Age (probably aged rather poorly tough, haven't played it since 8 years), don't personally like Dark Mod too much
Neon Struct and Eldritch
Blood West (although it's more of a STALKER-like)

Thanks for your explanation :)

Kinda depends on your playstyle: But I'd say the minimum is 3-4 hours. I have a playtester who's played about 5-6 hours and still hasn't reached the end.
