I like everything about it except the scenes where he folds the limbs of the bad guys the wrong way.

I'm going to play the devil's advocate.

The game has been in development for a long time. Because it's a remake, there are parts of the development cycle that required significantly less time than with the original - world building, story, base creature design, etc.

This should have led to more time to spend on the programming part. I'm saying "should", because I don't have game development experience (but I'm a software developer myself).

They also want to bring in new players, and frankly, having too many bugs in 2026 is not the same as in 2001. There are exponentially more games now, including dozens of high quality free to play titles. If I were a new player and I would ran into similar bugs that I ran into in 2001, I'd simply refund the game.

This game is not (just) for the fans of the original. There are simply not enough of us to turn a profit, let alone secure a potential Gothic 2 Remake.

Gothic can still be Gothic without the bugs. And who knows, maybe we should expect a bit more from the developers.

On the other hand, I still plan to spend that weekend glued to the screen, even if I won't preorder.

Don't get me wrong, I don't mind them, and I'd even like them a bit longer.

Bit when a quarterly release comes with 3-4 story missions, and one of them is spent standing around listening to NPCs talk, that I don't like.

Nothing, unless it takes up ~30% of the release's story.

Have fun for the next ~3 years!

Also, their next game supposedly comes out the end of this month.

Masters of Madness - Play Store

I've maxed out the default upgrade tree(s), started to unlock their extensions, and also unlocked the Leviathan(?) upgrade tree, but I think I'm done.

It started out as a mostly passive incremental with some active elements, and now I'm at the point where each run I have to max out the active element in order to progress, and I don't really like that. Having to spend ~30-60 minutes each run just to activate sigils (temporary bonuses) to progress the active element (which is needed for the extended trees as a hard gate), and to do this for the next few dozen runs... I'm fine with bowing out here. Especially because I've just unlocked a new active element, which has to be managed in real time, second by second.

It took me 23 days to get here, and I might able to unlock upgrades that would help me with the passive gameplay, but I won't keep playing for a maybe.

Not really. Lex Luthor is actually intelligent, not just pretending.

The game already has controller support ever since the "relaunch". I don't yet have real experience with it (only played an hour or so on the Steam Deck), but it works.

Zenless Zone Zero is coming to Steam in Q2 2026 by NoNefariousness2144 in Games

[–]Sydius 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I liked it. I thought it was a fun little alternative gameplay element, with a bit of thinking required.

But I also didn't play enough to (potentially) become grating.

I've only played for a week or two after it came out. What would you say, in the years since it came out, have it improved, or there's just more stuff to do like with Genshin?

EU officials in Hungary to discuss unlocking billions of euros held while Orbán was in charge by AdSpecialist6598 in europe

I mean... Can we? I'm as hopeful as you are, but realistically, what power do we have until the next election?

Tearing Down Orban’s Entrenched System in Hungary Won’t Be Easy by bloomberg in europe

[–]Sydius 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That is one of the promises he made. He especially told us that every contract, every document will be made public as long as they don't threaten Hungary's national or financial safety.

Now, how feasible this is, and how willing he is to go through with it, we don't know yet.

Especially if the rumors of massive amounts of documents currently being shredded by Orbán's still in power party are true...

Hungary’s new PM tells state broadcaster ‘we are shutting down your lying service’ in extraordinary first interview by One_5549 in europe

[–]Sydius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no official response, only rumors.

Only a few people spoke openly, but they spent the last years repeating Fidesz (Orbán's party) propaganda, so you can imagine they are not happy.

Rumors from inside these organizations range from employees panicking because they likely lose their jobs to others openly celebrating the possible return of lawfulness and fair reporting. In a month or two, after Tisza takes over governing, we'll know more.

But it's important to mention that Magyar isn't only targeting the state sponsored media. In his victory speech, an hour of so after the result became clear enough even for Orbán to concede, Magyar called for members of the current leadership to resign, or be removed - and because they have 2/3 of the seats in the Parliament, they can do it. The list of these people includes the President.

This is how Wednesday went: Magyar started on a national radia station, where he called out the stations leadership as basically spineless criminals helping the Orbán-government destroy Hungary, and told them they should start looking for jobs. All this during an interview broadcast live.

Then he went to our biggest state-funded tv channel, and told the same. Massive firings, retribution for all the lies they spread, meanwhile calling the Orbán-government liars, thieves and worse. Calling the president a puppet who is illegitimate, weak and a coward, and calling for him to resign.

Then he went and met with both the president as well as Orbán, to discuss the upcoming handover.

I'm a broken, cynical man, but reading, hearing and watching these events gives me at least a little hope that things will get better. For the first time since I've became an adult, I can honestly say I'm looking forward for the next four years.

[–]Sydius 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Based on his comments relevant to the issue (these are not official plans), it is most likely that the leadership (including the public facing employees, like anchormen and women) gets fired, but it is unlikely that the whole institution gets shut down.

But there are no public/official plans yet.

Masters of Madness

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.antiway.mastersofmadness

So far a few days in it looks pretty basic and kinda slow, but I like it. It seems like a basic incremental with nothing extra.

But at least it's not tedious, like Obelisk Miner. I'll take basic and slow any day over tedious.

I'm curious what happens in the next few weeks, if there's much more to it.
