@NoQuarterSoft I tried to pirate my own game day 1 on F95 but I went out to get drunk and people beat me to it. All good either way.

Chat, is this based?

@Sinnoware Calling it the most janky is fucking mental

Dark Messiah of Might and Magic (2006) Arkane's most janky yet fun physics-based action game. I tried to squeeze in as many gameplay elements as possible in this short video. I hope you all enjoy it. 🧵

@LeoKRogue Sure is convenient it got announced like six months after FO76 and which everyone hated at the time.

I know this is old news, but this is kind of beastmode.

The very idea that Arkane said “ya know what, we’re gonna pour thousands of hours of blood, sweat and tears into crafting this level with intricately designed pathways and buildings… but hey you can just skip this whole section if you want to” is mind boggling to me. We need more of THIS in AAA.

@Irenicus67 Dust district is better than the mansion and a crack in the slab combined, it's an actual level with all gameplay open to you. goated.

Dust District is a criminally underrated level I prefer it over Crack in the Slab and I know that sounds crazy

@OldInternetFeel This reminded me of Odell Down Under

Windows 98 Underwater Screensaver (1998)

@pcgamer I'm glad Valve changed it from verified to unsupported because one of Bethesda's stupid fucking updates made it so that bringing up the Steam keyboard crashes the game.

Skyrim has been the most-played 'Unsupported' game on Steam Deck for 5 months pcgamer.com/games/the-elde…

I had a filmaker say I really understood film which I'm honored by because I have no idea what I'm doing When the antagonist takes power I framed their head with the moon like a crown. When they're defeated the sun rises and frames the portags head. First daytime in their story

Did you know the last names of some of the love interests in my game all come from other immersive sims? Megan Garrett (Thief) Courtney Reed (Deus Ex: HR) Abigail Foster (Dishonored 2 & DOTO)

@SUPERBLOWFLY I swear the subtitle used to say "tea" instead of titty and they changed it at some point. Say it to yourself in an English accent.

hes funny af i cant lie

@TheArkaneRealm As critical as I am for D2, I'm actually kind of surprised Redfall got so much flak. It's not great, but I beat it, and there are fucking waaay worse games than Redfall. The environmental storytelling is still really good and once you get into the groove it's actually kinda comfy

With all the excitement surrounding #Dishonored lately, I had completely forgotten this very important anniversary. Redfall is an INCREDIBLY FLAWED game, no two ways around that. However, there were plenty of things that I enjoyed about the game, even in spite of itself. It will forever stand as a monument to both Xbox’s failure to provide more support and resources to Arkane Austin during development, as well as Bethesda and Zenimax’s failure to see that Arkane Austin should likely never have made Redfall as a co-op focused multiplayer title to begin with. All of these things can be true while also being directly contradictory of each other. This is ultimately where Redfall landed for me: a contradiction that displayed some strengths of Arkane’s signature style as well as no strengths at all. It’s a shame that this will be the game many people remember Arkane Austin for, instead of the studio that gave us the original Dishonored and Prey, two of the greatest immersive sims ever crafted. One bad game should never tarnish a studio’s legacy.

@SynthPotato You guys actually play games? I just think about it and then decide I don't have time.

Nothing worse than having a bunch of games that you still need to finish but also fighting the urge to start new games 😭

@Sosowski Just to add on to this, the other things I can learn. I can learn art or programming etc, I can't change my voice, certainly not to be female. So, I didn't have money for voice actors, didn't have anyone to help, it was either what I did or not make the game. I think that's fine.

@Sosowski I did the voice acting myself, I did speech to speech with the AI. Regardless, my game is an immersive sim/dating sim and I had to voice the female characters as well, so you know...can't use my normal voice hahaha

I’ve been told I need to use AI to make games faster. But why? I like making games. Why would not making them myself somehow be a better thing?

I legitimately think Morrowind is the best game ever made.

@RinoTheBouncer Dishonored 2 is barely functional and Deathloop is the better game Alien: Isolation is dogshit Fromsoft's only good game is Metal Wolf Chaos Tomb Raider 2013 is hardly a game at all The Twin Snakes is the best MGS game AC: Nexus is the best AC since AC1 DmC is the best DMC

What gaming take are you defending like this?🚀

@grahamkrackr It's also probably the first Arkane game where the characters are genuinely good and interesting and likeable. They've always been great at level design and gameplay but this was the first time the characters really shined

@grahamkrackr Long story short it actually works like it's supposed to and isn't as big of a glitch fest. It's even more impressive because you can't quickload. In D2 people just load whenever something goes wrong so they don't realize how glitchy D2 really is.

I love Dishonored, but I also need some Deathloop glazing because that game was 🔥
