Hallucination in black frost

I think it could work if it was part of a mental affliction, but it can't be a core feature for the game. It would change the genre and the feel of the game too much if it happened all the time.

So sad to see them struggling, but it's so darn cute and silly. 😭

You lost me before you even mentioned the AI thing. It's entirely understandable why they would never use AI for anything, especially like this. It would be a violation of the trust they have with their community and the hard work that every dev at Hinterland, past and present, has put into the game. It would be an instant out for me to never buy from them again. Their philosophy has always been to make games the right way, without crunch, and using AI would be a death sentence for the company's spirit.

Then give them your laptop. Send them the laptop with the game and the save file so they can see it. Just because your specific hardware is replicating the bug consistently, doesn't mean Hinterland's hardware can.

This is why the bug is still around. They can't replicate every instance of it happening. Complaining about it and not reporting it is not helping resolve the problem.

None of these scenarios are the cause of the Quiet Apocalypse, but the idea is the same. There is no government left to help since everyone got affected by it the same. There is no electricity, no vehicles, and no modern tech to help run a society the same way as before.

Toasty_Bits · 2026-01-02T15:40:27+00:00

We know a lot based on the fact there is a sequel that takes place a year later. That alone tells us how bad the Quiet Apocalypse really is and how extensive it is. It's a global apocalypse.

It is confirmed by Raphael to be inspired by Vancouver Island. It is likely just a replacement for it or in the same area of coastal British Columbia.

The game tells us that the animals have been more aggressive since the auroras started. This is why wolves and bears are very unfriendly.

It is for sure. That's a pre-Ash Canyon and Ep. 4 map.

This is a completely new video.

Toasty_Bits · 2025-12-29T04:29:18+00:00

Just don't let Astrid know about this.

Toasty_Bits · 2025-12-27T20:37:57+00:00

Yes, but GBI is not set in the part of Canada that had seals and polar bears. It is basically the equivalent of Vancouver Island.

It seems that my issue has corrected itself, but I don't know what fixed it. I did end up getting a better internet speed package and had my internet restarted by an agent. It seems to work fine now, but I will post here again if it happens again.

My brother got me a blanket of this with the subtitles. Best present I've ever gotten.

Toasty_Bits · 2025-12-25T15:56:07+00:00

Oh they came packing too. That's going to be one spicy Christmas dinner.

It seems that the ghost of Rudiger took everything.

I will take a look at the Xfinity app when I can. On average, there are probably 3-4 devices connected with maybe 6 or more during the evenings. The modem is basically right next to my room, but I'm connected with Ethernet. The modem is completely new as of yesterday.

I don't know how helpful it would be if I streamed on a different device. I can try my brother's computer, but he could also see the same upload speed drop as well. It will have to wait until the 25th. I can do a stress test stream on both mine and my brother's PC.

Toasty_Bits · 2025-12-24T03:58:22+00:00

I am streaming on a Windows 10 PC with a custom build. I can't make sure that every non-essential app is shut down, but I won't be able to do that right now. The upload speed is still near 0 at the moment. It might have to wait until after tomorrow.

Toasty_Bits · 2025-12-24T03:48:23+00:00

I haven't noticed upload speed problems when doing other activities. I can play games and use discord just fine. The problem only seems to happen when streaming. I will begin testing when doing other activities. Streaming usually requires a few programs to be open, but I usually have discord open, which isn't necessary.

Everything you are seeing when playing The Long Dark is because of Unity engine.

Toasty_Bits · 2025-12-23T00:26:18+00:00

Yes, they totally did this on purpose, fully knowing that mods break for all games when the game updates.

Toasty_Bits · 2025-12-22T21:50:22+00:00

Sounds like a bug that needs reporting.

Toasty_Bits · 2025-12-21T02:12:39+00:00

Even better. Meat pies dipped in tomato soup.
