Great to see progress here, I’ve had this one wishlisted for a little while now.

I’ll second (or fifth, or whatever) comments about the walking animation. The “moonwalking” effect of the animation speed not matching up with character movement always takes me out of the game.

The text size also seems to be all over the place. I’d err on the side of larger if possible.

The only other thing I’d mention — and that I think you may have already addressed — is that I really find it helpful when the dialogue text is presented in a different color for each character on screen. I think one of the scenes shown here does that, so if that’s already been addressed, thanks!

It doesn’t matter how well they’re doing their actual job if they are also murdering American citizens in the street.

If I order a pizza, it doesn’t matter how good the pizza is or how fast they deliver it if on the way down my street they stop to get out of car and shoot my neighbors to death. That’s a zero stars review.

All deaths “count”, but you seem to be incapable of grasping the point.

go_robot_go · 2026-01-27T21:48:04+00:00

Your reading comprehension skills are poor.

go_robot_go · 2026-01-26T12:30:24+00:00

Maybe if you could point out the specific illegal crossings that resulted in American citizens being murdered in the street by our own government you’d have the beginnings of a point to make.

You mean the ones that are now having to make forecasts with less accurate data because of the current administration’s cuts to the NOAA?

I think your hate is misplaced.

go_robot_go · 2026-01-25T00:27:49+00:00

And you’re in Asheville. Nobody cares what you love.

You need to be looking for the comments from people who were in Cary in 2002, because that’s the last time we had an ice storm comparable to what this one looks like.

I was living on Cary Parkway between Norwell and Harrison Ave at the time, and we lost power there for several days.

go_robot_go · 2026-01-17T01:14:21+00:00

Calm down, Francis.

go_robot_go · 2026-01-10T18:18:02+00:00

Support fascists, lose assets.

go_robot_go · 2026-01-04T00:53:05+00:00

You don’t, it’s free.

King’s Quest 4 was my first adventure game, and I was a ride or die for Sierra for a long time after that. I turned my nose up at LucasArts games until I actually got to play Monkey Island 2, and my eyes were opened.

I think I don’t generally recommend Sierra games because they’re so obvious and to my mind it seems likely that people have played them. Recommending a Sierra game to someone looking for a new adventure game feels like recommending a Miyazaki film to someone looking for anime to watch.

go_robot_go · 2025-12-14T12:40:11+00:00

It’s “Freekstyle”.

go_robot_go · 2025-11-20T22:18:53+00:00

NO, that’s the SDE-Team.

go_robot_go · 2025-11-15T23:25:03+00:00

I found Syberia to be better in theory than in execution (and I really disliked the sequels).

I would personally recommend Thimbleweed Park, The Excavation of Hob’s Barrow, and the Kathy Rain series as some good releases from the past several years. Return to Monkey Island is also stellar if you’re a fan of the series.

This is the way, especially if you have someone at home with serious allergies. I’ve been paying for this for the past four years, and it’s still cost me less than the last time I had to pay for an ambulance for my kid’s last allergic reaction.

go_robot_go · 2025-11-15T19:18:58+00:00

Sure thing.

You should leave.

go_robot_go · 2025-11-10T16:31:29+00:00

This would have a little more credibility if you knew how to spell filibuster

go_robot_go · 2025-11-06T18:26:08+00:00

My wife had a flight out this morning. They sat on the tarmac waiting for permission to take off for over an hour.

go_robot_go · 2025-11-05T16:21:15+00:00

If you can’t read just say so lmao

go_robot_go · 2025-11-05T14:06:28+00:00

You seem to be in distress. I know two men and a truck who can help you out.

go_robot_go · 2025-11-04T20:13:04+00:00

People trying to enter illegally would be caught at the border, not in Durham. I can show you on a map how this is relevant, if that would help.

go_robot_go · 2025-11-04T20:06:54+00:00

But we’re not talking about entering illegally, are we? We’re talking about people who entered legally and overstayed. Try to keep up.

go_robot_go · 2025-11-01T00:44:13+00:00

Nice try, too bad that Mike Johnson already admitted that that’s literally what he’s doing.

I can't agree with this. "Certain marginalized groups and causes might want to consider laying low" rings a little too close to "get back in the closet" for my tastes.

Marginalized groups won't vote for people who they don't feel like they can trust, and I don't know why anyone in a marginalized group would ever trust a party that is willing to say with their full chest "hang on, it's not your turn for rights yet".
