@high_voltage_cz Už jsi dělal mainquest s Bernardem, kdy tě učil šermovat? Tak se za ním vrať a nech se naučit ještě jednu věc - majstr strajk - a pak ten boj bude mnohem snazší.

@Runozepam Kinda rude not to have best of them all...

We just want to play CiV VII and Avowed in peace...

BTW, a game studio moving UP a release is ballsy, almost never happens. Warhorse Strong #KingdomComeDeliverance2

The Metacritic ecosystem encourages devs to make safe boring games.
As long as a game is polished at launch, you’re guaranteed a 80%, no matter how boring the game might be.
Meanwhile Stalker2 gets a 73 because it’s a bit rough on the edges at launch.
Unfair, misleading..

[Jan Bartoloměj N. @JBNA4]

Too OP combo...

Join The Smugglers Pact and arm yourself with the Gunrunner and Greyhound Traits.

Loot and profit! That's the Smugglers' way. Of course, with extra spoils comes the need to arm yourself. The Gunrunner Trait allows you to carry two large weapons when you're pledged to The Smugglers Pact, and the Greyhound Trait will give you a burst of speed when carrying a Bounty Token.

@TafferKing451 I had the exact same bug in Arx, also there was another one where the rats would follow the player everywhere until we added a rule that cheese doesn’t smell inside a container (the player in this case)

[GOG.COM @GOGcom]

With the celebrations of GOG’s 16th Anniversary, we are thrilled to announce our new initiative.

We’re launching the GOG Preservation Program – an official stamp on classic games that GOG has improved, with a commitment of our own resources to ensure their compatibility with modern systems and make them as enjoyable to play as possible.

This initiative was created to make games live forever and once again bring the utmost attention to what the center of our work has been for the last 16 years: video game preservation.

We begin with the re-release of 100 classic games from our catalog with updated, improved, or quality-tested builds, including masterpieces like Heroes of Might and Magic® 3, Resident Evil, and Diablo+Hellfire.

Visit our website dedicated to the Program to learn more: https://t.co/Mk11YwLfGj

If you’d like to read more about the initiative right here, please join us in the comment thread below.

Still one of the TOP 3 GTA games.

We released gta San Andreas 20 years ago. October 26, 2004.

Game releases were different back then.

It took 6 weeks for the DVDs to be produced, boxed and distributed. Patches over the internet were not yet a thing.
For us, all of the stress had happened at the cut-off point, 6 weeks prior. No big issues had come up.

Most devs had taken a holiday and we were already thinking about our next project.

Digital distribution didn’t exist yet. Games were typically released on a Tuesday/Wednesday in the US and Fridays in the UK. Same for SA.

The internet was crap and apart from a couple of trailers, gamers didn’t know too much about the game.

For big games, stores would open at Midnight before release day so that pre-orders could be picked up.
I only later found out, the publisher has to pay the stores to make these late openings happen.

I went to the biggest store near the R*North offices, which was HMV on Princess Street, Edinburgh. Even though it was a drizzly night, the line meandered all through the store and spilled out onto the street.

It was mind-blowing to see all those people so excited, going home to play the game all through the night.

OH MY GOD

It's somewhat well-known that blocking with your fists does nothing in Pathologic, it's just placebo. hbomberguy even jokes about it in his video (12:49)

IT'S BECAUSE THEY SET IT TO 0.25 INSTEAD OF 25.0

Laika came out exactly one year ago.

Some news in the upcoming weeks.

Thank you all for your support!
