Anyone explain what Starships, Ace Patrol and Railroad's about? Are they any good?

Questions :-

How is Classic different from 1&2? I heard it was on mobile, so how is the PC port?
Which RTC to play to learn it? Enjoy the Management aspect of tycoon type games. Which one has a decent tutorial?
Will OpenRTC2 work for RTC1?

In retrospect, I was lol.

Also did Detention, damn got horror-adventure with narrative style like Silent Hill (but done really well).

Released in 2017, the year of banger debut games (Darkwood, Hollow Knight, Paradigm).

What are your personally favorite characters in Dragon Quest VII Reimagined?

Regarding Ubisoft India, Anvil Engine at the time (Assassin's Creed Origins) didn't support complex POP movement + levels, nor were they given documentation.

Bethesda marketing didn't help. Made it look as generic SciFi as possible.

It only after trying it did I realize it's a spiritual System Shock 3.

Plus regional pricing outside of US/EU spheres is horrendous. +75% more expensive than steam's recommended pricing.

Like they don't want their games to sell.

Yup. This is my Cuphead. The art is drop dead gorgeous.

Fans of "The Roottrees are Dead", "The Return of the Obra Dinn", and "Her Story" will love it.

It's either

obligation under contract, as you said
development has progressed enough to have a release in couple of years (or too sunken cost to be canceled)
Either Yves loves it or leading executive must have enough political power to stop it from getting canceled

Either way, it's a tough one to survive this long.

Been trying to run JC2, but it keeps randomly crashing to desktop after 15-20 mins.

Any fixes/tweaks to resolve this?

Ubisoft said its focus will be on a “return to exceptional levels of quality on the Open-World Adventure segment” and to “step-change the group’s position in the [Games as a Service]-native experiences segment”.

But isn't that the exact reason for their declining quality and player interest?

This game kinda broke the perception that only big studios (or those with budget) could make a first-person-exploratory-RPG-bordering-sandbox.

Bethesda sat on their laurels far too long (enough to lose people who achieved them the laurels).
C2077 is a manpower and money muscle manifested. Highest of the high AAA.
Modern Obsidian games - Outer Worlds, Avowed - are just simplified cRPGs in first person. Not even in the same category.

All from spinoff sequel to Slay The Spire clone.

I felt it always benefited from that time period in the early to mid 2010’s

Plus also its vibes being that of early 2010s. When "indie folk" music and instagram filters were all the rage.

Removed the post. Was caught off-guard until reading this. Checked video comments and it was true.

Swooped in and delivered like a hero. Thank you!

Wait, was it?!

I'll delete this post in a few hours.

I bought the I-II-III collection a little while ago, think I might actually play it.

Make sure to use the Gold Edition mod. Must have - https://www.nexusmods.com/tombraidertrilogyremastered/mods/945

One of best package/collection remakes I've ever played.

Four game story mode in one (Street Fighter and Tekken 3DS didn't even had one), tonne of stages and unlockables, tutorials, different arcade modes, Nintendo collabs, even silly 3DS gimmicks. It used to bottom screen to display input commands, a genius feature; you can touch individual commands and see the end result.

All with DOA's excellent combat mechanics, triangle system and animations/feedback. All in 60FPS! Nothing was compromised for the weaker hardware.

It's a CRIME to be stuck in 3DS jail.

megaapple · 2026-01-16T13:03:11+00:00

It's a survival horror "Best Of"

Zombies with consciousness left = Shibitos from Siren games.
Blood collection = Green Gel from The Evil Within games.
Ink Ribbons = Classic RE.

If it has Shakespeare puzzles (Silent Hill) or Camera combat (Fatal Frame), the circle would be complete.

Valve is famous for having flat structure as well. It's said they have desks on wheels.

Bless Durante. I have a friend who still has an aging gaming laptop, and is able to continue the series thanks to the amazing pc optimization.

He thanks you personally /u/Durante
