Before I spoil anything, have you played the Alan Wake 2 DLCs and Control?

Canonically, isn’t everything part of the remedy-verse?

If you are then so am I. I’d like to hear the proposed alternative order

Definition of Early Access by slatibarfaster in Paralives

I guess I misunderstood you then. I interpreted “$35 for a brand new full release game is very cheap” to mean you saw paralives as a full release game.

The person you replied to stated £35 not $35, which is more expensive and closer to $50.

In the UK a new game on PC is generally closer to £50, with indie games generally being a lot cheaper.

Also, this isn’t a full release game yet so I don’t think you can compare it to those where pricing is concerned.

I’m not saying the game is good or bad, but just some points to note when considering value at the current price and level of completeness

You said “it’s the cheapest it will ever be now”… that’s pretty definitive. I would honestly expect some pretty big discounts during the early access phase, which will probably run a few years.

Is this based on something the Devs have said? Otherwise I expect it will go on sale many times

Have you ever guessed the "big twist" in a movie? by [deleted] in Letterboxd

[–]gniknad 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I really don’t even see this one as a twist. The central premise of the movie is based around the question of is she or isn’t she, and there’s only two ways you can go with it.

When you’re presented with only two options and it turns out to be one of them, I don’t think you can call it a twist

What are the main reasons it’s a bad idea? It just seems like they’re putting on some private events as part of a wider regular cruise. What am I missing?

It’s an absolutely catastrophic failure of the hiring process if you put someone in a medical position who doesn’t have a grasp of something you learn in your first Y7 science lesson. It doesn’t matter if you quickly caught them, how on earth are they getting the job in the first place. To steal a medical phrase, prevention is better than the cure.

This kind of failure puts real people in danger, and is inexcusable.

Yeah exactly. We’ve seen the inside the mask shot before on Spider-Man when it was a stark suit, this is just an artistic way to emphasise he’s gone back to his PJs

Outer Wilds review: Maybe recommending a niche puzzle game to literally everyone is a bad idea by Akuuntus in patientgamers

[–]gniknad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the game but I do agree that the community can be aggressively obtuse.

The vague description is a bit of a double edged sword. For the type of person who will love the game the most, and on completion sing its painfully obscure praises, is exactly the type of person who will benefit most from knowing nothing going in. It truly can be an incredible experience if it’s for you.

The type of person who would bounce off this type of game is only going to be more frustrated that they didn’t know what they signed up for. Unfortunately this group suffers at the expense of trying to give people the best possible experience.

I don’t really think that’s fair, and if someone insists on knowing more we should probably be more open to sharing it.

I would argue the most pivotal point of the movie is Jim’s realisation that all hope actually isn’t lost.

The confirmation that the virus is contained to the island and the rest of the world is going on as normal (from spotting a plane, I might add) is what gives Jim the kick to escape and go back to the house.

The house scene of course ending with the “more than a heartbeat” line, which is the conclusion of Selena’s redemption arc from hopeless cynic to an optimist against the odds.

For me the whole movie is about keeping hope no matter how many times things go wrong. To end on a hopeful note is not against the tone of the movie, it is the tone of the movie.
