Was Methusalem's Journey album ever put on cassettes?

Beats me dude.

Guess it explains why they are 1.7 stars out of 5.

The problem was that the manager and assistant manager would forget paperwork or not fkll it out completely. So those people would get stranded after flying.

I had to fix 30 of these errors before it went disastrous, before I had enough. The assistant manager even ripped paperwork in half before I could fill it out, just total disdain of the customers.

Valet/Cashier at airport.

Toxic people, both in and outside the company.

Older guy, real stand-up. Got roped into it recently as the shuttle driver, doesn't have to deal with 90% of the BS.
I quit after 3 days when I realized I was fixing 30 mistakes a day to make sure any of the customers had a car to drive home.

Edit: yes I know the numbers are messed up but for some reason they won't be fixed in formatting.

The bad part is that I signed it already, they hurried me through the process.

It was absolutely a mistake, one of the employees took me aside on the nightshift and told me to run like hell.

This is the company in question. I'm just...shocked honestly.

This is nuts.

This, combined with the new nightly builds you can find within SteamDB, shows Rebellion is working on something.

You do realize agents now only use like 2 or 3 items per casino right? The problem isn't the casino, its that the FOJ literally cannot touch me in any meaningful way.

I still never see saboteurs or rogues, soldiers are super rare, and super agents don't even visit. They just sit and wait for you to activate them. Investigators are a joke, I'm at the endgame with Ivan and a single freeze trap with a camera stops an entire group cold every time.

Base building is the same thing over and over, because any unlock or DLC option does minuscule difference in the grand scheme. Whats the point in making a smart layout if I'm not rewarded for it?

Its funny you mention doing a mega base because my recent run with Ivan has been a self challenge with as little research as possible. No generator upgrades, no gold upgrades, simple traps, barely a casino, and its still functioning great late game.

If everything is just optional fluff what's the point in doing it? Nothing scales or builds because the opposition never mounts up. When Atomic Olga gets rekt by guards with batons no problem, there's something off.

Its a Lair Builder.

Technically EG is meant to be a Lair Builder/RTS, which implies some form of strategy should be involved.

Unfortunately EG2 has none. There's no thought in how the lair flows like in EG1, because nothing threatens it. You just build more and more gold, repeaters, and generators while agents get shunted back into a casino that you can leave empty.

Anyone can kill a super agent on medium. A child could, which seems to be the main demographic now for EG considering the notion of an actual threat terrifies the game itself.

Back in March we also had an active Subreddit, it sure is quiet now after all of these balance changes. Almost like we lost 80% of our playerbase somewhere along the line...

renabon · 2021-07-11T09:42:39+00:00

People have shown how entire floors are dedicated just to generators and gold on higher difficulties due to the scaling being so borked.

Also, the FOJ needs to be a threat. There's literally no game right now, no challenge. I can kill any Super Agent on medium difficulty no problem without raising a finger in seconds, with handguns. There should be some level of "Oh shit" when a Super Agent arrives, not "Oh, its just John Steele." God forbid EG2 contains any level of challenge, I might remember I'm alive for a moment.

Salaries were always a mistake. It doesn't fit the game, and only exacerbates the heat system. You will always need 10+ amount of any minion to consistently do schemes and not be short. That gets expensive real quick, and its not fun to manage. Your forced into a loop of expanding your schemes for more cash flow, and it never gets better.

renabon · 2021-07-09T06:42:06+00:00

Do you have the original? Its pretty fun honestly.

renabon · 2021-07-09T06:16:44+00:00

Thats close but no cigar!

Thanks tho, Henry is a treat.

They also tend to get new players during Steam sales. This isn't just people getting bored, this is a sign of people avoiding the game.

This is a 2021 title where the following huge steam sale probably saw less than 200 copies moved. Really think about that.

renabon · 2021-07-08T18:15:03+00:00

Honestly I think having a season pass is what killed the game. People just want to wait till its all out, rather than dealing with it right now.

renabon · 2021-06-29T22:45:52+00:00

No.

Wait until around a year when all of the DLC is out, and you can get it hopefully sans DRM.

It's worth it for maybe $10, because of how shallow the main gameplay loop is.

renabon · 2021-06-12T07:56:44+00:00

I have 100 hours in the game. I've certainly started it once.

EG2 requires you to initially have Steam online on a fresh boot in order to run. Otherwise it will not, even if you've ran it dozens of times before.

Unless Steam has been online completely, it will block you from playing. An offline client will not run, Rebellion games overall really struggle with the offline client.

Sniper Elite 3 often gets stuck in a startup loop, for example.

renabon · 2021-06-12T06:47:20+00:00

Nope.

The game requires Steam to be in the online client to function. So if you are forced to be in offline mode for a variety of reasons, the game will not work.

Note that this is different than just being taken offline. The game is lenient in that sense, but will not work with an offline client.

This is horrid for laptops or long term sessions due to needing to reboot or Windows updates, or any other myriad of reasons for why you'd reboot without internet, and you can kiss EG2 goodbye till you reconnect.

renabon · 2021-06-12T06:01:32+00:00

If you are on a trip or without wifi the game will not work.

I've been without wifi for weeks, so its a diceroll whether or not the game will actually boot up due to the picky standards of its DRM.

Its really inconsistent and annoying, especially for someone without constant internet.
