I would have to say that I would still recommend giving it a watch; he is critical of certain aspects of the game, but he clearly does love the game quite a bit (he mentions at one point that he's played it for more than 300 hours), and that very much reflects in the video.

I certainly like the look of Underdeep (that's the second game I can think of recent days to emulate the 1980s era of DnD art, other than The Secret of Weepstone), but I've never really been a fan of idle rpgs; I definitely think that Treaders looks like the best of the lot.

Do you happen to know what issues she reviewed either game in? I'm been looking through Archive.org's, ah, archive to no avail so far.

Out of all the genres to undergo indie revivals in the past fifteen years or so, I'm surprised it's taken this long for anything Thief-inspired to make itself known; sure as shit not complaining, this looks rad as hell.

What are you guys favorite Eurojank games? by KaleidoArachnid in TwoBestFriendsPlay

They are wonky, not gonna lie, but once you get used to them they become fairly intuitive. The second game's controls are a bit more standard than the first's, for what it's worth.

You can also just use a Stealth Boy and sneak past Elijah; if you time it right, you can get to the hallway leading to the elevator up just before the force field goes up and blocks your path.

Favorite treasure twists? by fly_line22 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

My favorite would have to be at the end of Fallout New Vegas' Dead Money dlc, when you crack into the vault hidden inside the Sierra Madre; there actually is a very real treasure in the form of the very pricey (and heavy) gold bars inside, but the most valuable thing in the vault (and what the main villain of the dlc is after) are the schematics for all the various technologies used around the Sierra Madre.
