  • Mostly fucking right for sure.

    With some rare exceptions of course (e.g. Oskar Schindler), every single Nazi member either contributed to or wilfully ignored the industrial deathmachines in the concentration camps. Let those who profiteered work in the same conditions as a slave for a few years and let those that were actively involved (e.g. the camp guards, developers, and all high level party members) be gassed.

  • To be honest, many games published by Annapurna Interactive are an incredible experience. So, if you want to experience some new things, check them out if you haven't already! I can personally recommend Stray and What Remains of Edith Finch. Final note; if you play the latter for the first time, play it in a single sitting. It's only 2 hours but man is it worth it!

  • The annoying thing is that this was already an issue in Divinity II... Probably something to do with the engine as they made that themselves as well. I love both games a tonne, but this is definitely an issue that they seem to be repeating...

  • Kentucky Route Zero would probably classify as obscure. It's not really a game, to be honest, more of a point-and-click exploration visual novel.

    What do I like so much about the game and what makes it unique? Well, I personally love games that are immersive and make me feel the experience. And this particular game is probably the closest out there in terms of making you feel like you are in a dream. It's a very weird concept, I know, but it is the only way I can describe it.

    The story itself starts with a man named Conway, who is driving a delivery for Lisette's Antiques - the last one, as the store will close forever soon. As he asks a gas station attendant for the way, he is directed to Kentucky highway zero. This road is unlike a regular road, as it goes through the caves underneath the surface, and navigating it is another matter entirely. On his way, he meets several strange people.

    The story is about being lost, loss, debt, and camaraderie. How it goes is mostly set in stone, but you do influence some of the world around you as the player. I think most gamers are probably interested in obscure mechanics rather than stories, and this game lacks actual "game" mechanics. So it is certainly not for everyone. However, it is among my favourites in terms of story/experience, and I'm not the only one that enjoys it.

  • The movie 1917. I watched it going in blind. I knew it was praised by many, but then again, so are many other war movies. Now it's my favourite movie. I cannot help but cry at the scene in the basement, even thinking about it gives me goosebumps.

  • My first time at what is more or less a Renaissance Fair. There were several knives and swords on display. I thought they were plastic. Found out the hard way they were not.

    I should add that this is in a country with gun control, i.e. weapons for sale is very much out of the order. I really was not expecting them to sell actual daggers!

  • Yeah, I agree this is most certainly to increase traffic. On the one hand, I like that there are many places on the board where the anti-admin sentiment is very obvious, but it does play into their hands in terms of traffic numbers.
