If you care about photo quality than go for the Pixel, it's basically a camera with a phone attached to it. Judging from your necessities I would stick to something that doesn't die after two hours of browsing: go for the OnePlus 12R.
I tried to make a thread asking this, but it got removed. The help subreddit is dead and Square Enix Support linked me to a Confluence board I couldn't access, so.
I remember reading an interview or some such with Del Toro around when the movie came out -- I've never been able to find it again, so maybe I dreamt it -- where he explained that it wasn't intended to be a twist.
Not OP, but having played it on release I'd personally rank Imposter Factory on par with To The Moon, possibly a little below it. It's worth noting that Finding Paradise is my favourite because the story resonated with me more.
Oh another thing, maybe you could use interactions between more magic arts. Like a person knowing two schools can use a unique combination of both in the form of a technique, or, for instance, a person having more difficulty learning another school because Soul manipulation acts in a completely different or even in an opposite way
Appreciate the replies. Weirdly I haven't actually thought about limitation beyond just "If you use too much of your soul you risk endagering yourself". Whoops.
Don't have just training to get better at something. You might get better through teaching of ancient arts, insight from different schools of thought/martial arts/philosophies/magic schools, some important artifact or consumable object, a meditation technique, volontary "surgery" on the soul to make it more magic friendly or something like that, maybe the soul is divided in parts and each of these parts is more related to a school or just a way of manipulating this soul magic. You could even go with some anime style inner guiding voice/ another self working as a mentor teaching unique techniques.
Yeah, so far I've only thought about things at effectively a base level - I'll be honest, names probably took me the longest - so this is some stuff I'll definitely consider going forwards. I appreciate the advice.
Probably my biggest recommendation is that you have consistent suffixes for your types of magic. Awakening, Sorcery, and Alchemy seem to have dramatically different suffixes from the other branches of pneumaturgy (outside of pneumancy, which shares a prefix with its supertype, and necromancy, which shares a suffix with its supertype).
I share this habit. I went back to play the DLC of Postal 2 recently and found that, having developed this pathological desire to quicksave every minute in the years since I last played, the Postal Dude will constantly bully you for quicksaving repeatedly. I've never felt so attacked.
That's what I was wondering. Just shove off the pain of childbirth onto someone else entirely. Feels like it would be a lot of effort for only a biref period of time though.
Not OP, but as someone who does the same it's Mass Effect: Andromeda for me. Maybe opinion's come around on this game a little now or maybe the disdain for it wasn't as notable as I remember, but when it released I really enjoyed this game. Played through it twice in fairly quick succession. It's absolutely got some glaring problems, but a space-frontier Mass Effect game with fairly enjoyable companions, good-looking environments, and fluid-feeling combat? Count me in.
I'm in the same boat; I appreciate having a good comparison point for the truly bad games as well as the genuinely great ones. Besides, at the end of the day it gives me something to rant to friends about. I'm sure they love it.
I can't say I'm particularly suprised. I don't remember much about my playthrough of Bright Memory, but I do remember feeling that most of the problems with it were at the design level as opposed to a quality one. Combat felt good, but everything around it was iffy.
Probably that time the entire Human capital was suddenly and without warning sent several thousand years into the future with an ancient wild magic bomb.
Good luck, it sounds like a fun idea. As for examples of others who have done - or are currently doing - something similar, either for inspiration, planning, or whathaveyou:
I'm very interested in this game and I'm hoping it's not just relying on sexual theming for the shock value of it. It's not something you see a lot in games and I love seeing boundaries pushed. Feels like a mix of HR Giger, HP Lovecraft, and Eyes Wide Shut.
If you wanted a rough idea, you could check out the first game, Lust for Darkness. Obviously it's been a while so it might not be exactly the same, but I remember that going for shock value a fair bit.
I see people talk about how "Resident Evil 4 doesn't need a remake, it's aged so well", which is baffling to me. I say this as a pretty big Resident Evil 4 fan - hell, it was the first shooter I ever played - but that game could absolutely do with the improvements of RE2make, without question. Graphically and mechanically.
Mechanically there's very little RE4 can take from RE2 other than more modern shooting and moving while shooting and that's basically the modern standard, not something that anyone would consider it as part of RE2, RE4 handles plenty of details better than RE2:
Oh no, absolutely. I don't disagree at all, but I guess I should've expanded on it in my original comment. I more meant the overall polish of the mechanics in RE2make, and how nice and smooth most everything in the game feels.
Games should first and foremost be judged as games, because they're damn games. You don't judge a painting by its frame or the movie by how comfortable seats in the cinema were. If you do, you're bad at judging. Actually can whatever is you do even be called judging? It's like, you're not even doing it wrong, you're not doing it at all.
So if you were to critique or review a videogame, you would critique it based solely on the game mechanics and nothing else? How would you review a walking simulator or any other game with little depth to its gameplay? What if those mechanics were paired with a truly great story or music?
Are you sure? I know he's been at Bioware for a while now, but I've tried looking up his work history & the only prominent listings are lead producer for Andromeda & Anthem. Before that, I saw some discussions that he worked on the MP & some of the DLC for ME3 with the Andromeda team, but nothing to suggest he helped with the base game of Mass Effect 3 let alone 2.
Hmm, alright. The way it's organized has me confused since the earliest listings are for the ME2 DLCs before the main game, so I'm still unsure his involvement in the base games themselves. Judging from that list though, I still feel like it's indicative that he shouldn't be in a leadership position at least. The DLCs & MP for the Trilogy were great, so him and the Andromeda team aren't incompetent or anything, but once he moved up & they had their own game, they bombed it. Then he went on & led Anthem's team and it bombed too. To me that says, along with other info we have about Andromeda's troubled development, that he's the kinda dude that either needs someone above him or needs direct goals set for him to follow.
Fair enough, that's a good point. Though the optimist in me says that EA's learned their lesson and will hopefully keep him in check or pair him with someone, though the realist in me says that probably isn't the case. Fingers crossed though.
I don't understand the desire to go back to the Milky Way. We've already spent so much time there. The Milky Way's story is over, leave it be. I'd prefer they don't try to force a canon ending onto Mass Effect 3 - that game's choices already feel shitty and meaningless, let's not make them worse.
It's so fucking wild to me, because that game is overall pretty wholesome and then you get into all the drama surrounding it and the juxtaposition hits you like a truck. It sucks, since the game is otherwise a really solid and charming experience.
Personally I've always seen it as massively overhyped, and I say that as a person with ~200 hours in both Special Edition and the original. There's a lot of elements of the game I actively hate, particularly combat, a lack of variation in environments, and the limited degree to which the game allows the player to actually roleplay.
Look for the seagate ironwolf 7200rpm(4TB) here it costs about 110€ so I think it could be in your budget (also worth the price, 1 more TB and 1800more rpm's)
no, the existing tagging system wasn't migrated into galaxys. this has been heavily critisised by many users. lots of them (including me) reverted to galaxy1 because of this (and other shortcomings). the issue has been widely ignored by gog. i backuped all my data into playnite, just in case they remove it entirely.
Are we talking about the 128 GB versione of the Pixel 8? In that case for me is not the perfect choice.
Sorry, I should've specified. Both phones are 256GB.
If you care about photo quality than go for the Pixel, it's basically a camera with a phone attached to it. Judging from your necessities I would stick to something that doesn't die after two hours of browsing: go for the OnePlus 12R.
In that case, I think I will. Thanks!

Have you unlinked the accounts from eachother on both ends?
I unlinked the Steam account from SE, but I'm not sure how you unlink the SE account from Steam if those are seperate.
I love GDT but I'm with you on this. Was the ending predictable or was that just me?
I remember reading an interview or some such with Del Toro around when the movie came out -- I've never been able to find it again, so maybe I dreamt it -- where he explained that it wasn't intended to be a twist.
Where are Would you rank impostor factory compared with to the moon and finding paradise?
Not OP, but having played it on release I'd personally rank Imposter Factory on par with To The Moon, possibly a little below it. It's worth noting that Finding Paradise is my favourite because the story resonated with me more.

Honestly, the names were something I had the hardest time coming up with and trying to keep consistent.
You might want to cross-post to
I did post it there around the same time, it's just that I have absolutely no clue how to cross-post. Didn't get many replies on that one though.
Excessive saving. And I mean excessive.
I share this habit. I went back to play the DLC of Postal 2 recently and found that, having developed this pathological desire to quicksave every minute in the years since I last played, the Postal Dude will constantly bully you for quicksaving repeatedly. I've never felt so attacked.

Are there games with bad reception that you really enjoyed?

There's not many Dwarves left in my world, and those that remain have been split into two subraces.

For the third, I think you should look into the Dresden Files by Jim Butcher.
Oh. I actually got given the first book in the series a while back, and never really gave it much of a look. I guess I ended up forgetting about it.
Are you sure? I know he's been at Bioware for a while now, but I've tried looking up his work history & the only prominent listings are lead producer for Andromeda & Anthem.

I could be wrong, I generally use MobyGames for game credits and it usually seems accurate.

Won't quests always be "go here, press this button" if you break them down to their base elements like that?
Video games are too long.
Man, tell me about it. I've been playing Assassin's Creed Oyssey and good god that game length. I just want it to end!

Ironwolf drives are for Nas and should be treated as such. I would just recommend a 4tb Seagate barracuda.
Curious, is there a reason you reccomend Seagate over Western Digital, or is it just personal taste?
Thanks, the only 4TB Ironwolf I could find after a quick look was 5900RPM though. But I'll look into it some more.

Thanks. I like the look of that CPU cooler.

Aw man, that sucks. Guess I'll stick with Playnite and Launchbox for now. Thanks for clearing that up for me though.
