Man, I know Elex is not as well known and received as Gothic but it still is my favorite open world game ever. There is just something about the mixture of science fiction, high fantasy and post apocalypse Mad Max style that made me fall in love with the game. In the beginning the big monsters in this world are fucking strong and beat my ass every time. I loved it and it is incredibly rewarding to get stronger and then fuck those bastards up - just to get mauled by the next even stronger monster/robot. One of the very few open world games where I actually explored every nook and cranny! You will be missed Piranha Bytes!

There is a local service/app in my city called Yuze. It has only a small selection of restaurants. The service the app has is pretty basic: you order food and it gets brought to you by a handful of (employed!) riders. No in-app tip BS, no hidden service charges - it's great! Haven't used Lieferando (takeaway.com's name in Germany) in forever. Downsides: the food selection is limited and the restaurants tend to be on the more pricier side.

I played (still in the middle of KCD) both games on the Switch. Both do work good for what they are: ports who definitely punch above their weight!

I played KCD on the PS4 when it came out and I can tell that there are some compromises, like less details in the distance and choppy animations when a person is walking far away from me and framerate dips in crowded places.

Aside from some stuff like I mentioned above, the port is great and I was really surprised how well everything looks. If you want to play the absolute best looking version of the game you already have it for your pc anyway but if you ever want to have the most flexible version this is definitely a great port of a great game!

Man, I have to do this also. No idea why the algorithm doesn't pick up on me not wanting to watch some idiot ranting about how videogames are woke or whatever.

Why is it the responsibility of, say, Nintendo to make all their games available on all platforms? They make their own hardware and games that are optimized to run on that hardware. Sure, the Switch is inferior to a modern pc in performance and all that but at the end of the day Nintendo chose what their hardware can do and make games accordingly. The fact that most developers and publishers want to release their games on all platforms is not the responsibility of Nintendo. If the most important thing is that every game runs the same on every platform there is no need for hardware like the Switch, which, like it or not, has done something new and interesting. Kinda the same with VR. I personally don't care for VR but it's at least something different.

I totally agree with you on the fact that people act like Capcom murdered their grandma or something. There is no need to make stuff up when the facts are bad enough on their own. I guess one reason people are so upset is the fact that microtransactions can be an actual and dangerous addiction to some people and are usually only found in multi-player games or straight up casino type stuff. Dragons Dogma is a beloved game and cult hit for a reason and this whole thing absolutely taints it's "reputation".

Anyway, I think it's great you seem to still enjoy the game and that's what matters at the end of the day. Cheers!

The first one is a bit of a hidden gem imo. I thoroughly enjoyed the investigation part and walking around the city! They managed to capture a sense of 'there is a story around every corner'. Combat does the job but not much more. Also: the way you have to make a choice which lead you want to follow on the map is a great way how they de-cluttered it. I hope the second game is just as good and better than the first one!

Yes, literally a show on Russian state TV. He got a paycheck from the Russian government. I mean, is it that hard to grasp that this little fact makes the "he's a russian asset" accusations at least understandable? And I am not saying he is one. I am not that informed about him and Wikileaks to have a strong opinion.

Ich kanns nicht so stehen lassen, obwohl ich vieleicht auf rage bait reinfalle aber

  • Man kann Kassel diverses nachsagen, ne Nazi Hochburg ist es definitiv nicht. Eher das Gegenteil. Kassel ist traditionell sozialdemokratisch mit starken grünen Anteilen und vielen Studenten in den Bereichen Kunst, Sozialpädagogik und Lehramt. Klar gibt's hier auch rechte Idioten aber die halten sich in der Öffentlichkeit sehr zurück. Glatzen sieht man im öffentlichen Raum sehr selten bis gar nicht. Ich bewege mich aus beruflichen Gründen in den meisten Ecken der Stadt und wüsste daher ziemlich genau, wo ich nicht mit meinem FCK AFD shirt rum laufen sollte. So eine Ecke gibt es aber nicht.

I personally don't care a lot about Kojima's games but I still think it's absolutely great he gets to make whatever he makes because he is a unique voice in gaming! In a sea of games as a service, mindless franchise milking and countless copycats someone like him is needed to make outlandish stuff, whether I like the games or not. Tons of people do and that's great!
