Not long ago I started watching videos about cave explorations, cave divings and also videos about people getting stuck and dying. I actually told myself this would be a great concept for a video game to play from the comfort and safety of your home
Cave divers when they see the unmapped hole called âAsphodelâs Sphincterâ
At least most of us quit cave spelunking the moment we were born
I used to do a lot of spelunking when I was a teenager but getting stuck for multiple hours, electrocuted (donât ask) and then falling 16 feet down a hole and landing on my knee pretty much cured that urge.
I hate it when people say stuff ike this and add âDonât askâ like what the hell do you think I am going to want to do when you say you were stuck, electrocuted and fell sixteen feet in a cave?
Well, you can ask about the falling and the getting stuck, but the electrocution part even I canât really explain, other than to say it was very uncomfortable.
Mercurysteam, - who made the fantastic Metroid Dread and also one of my favorite games of all time, Castlevania:Lords of Shadow - announced their new game
Split Fiction is out today! Silver and I might be playing it tonight, depending on if everything goes okay
Recently EA/Hazelight revealed the physical Friend Edition of the game that finally solves the issue of required multiplayer in their games!
ALSO - I just found out that the âFriendâs Passâ of the game (the Free version that lets you play the entire game connected to a Paid version) acts as a Demo on its own!
If two people connect Friend Pass versions together, youâll be able to play âthe early stages of the gameâ as a way to try it out. Cool! I donât remember reading that about the previous AWO or ITT.
Do they ever pick one of the other Great Old Ones for these games? Where is the Nyarlathotep game? I want Yog-Sothoth.
Iâve got a lot of gripes with this. Theyâve completely changed how the THPS4 career worked. In the older games you had the classic 2 minute timer to do as many goals as you could. In 4, there was no time limit so you could complete goals how and when you wanted but for the remake theyâve gone back to the 2 minute clock when a lot of those maps were designed around free roam and exploration.
Dude, Iâd love finally get Yog-Sothoth and Azathoth involved. I mean, Cthulhuâs cool and all, but his coolness is directly and intrinsically tied to the story of his city rising, being found, and sinking again. Itâs the implications of him that make him interesting, and so having him in any other context takes the uniqueness away. Plus they always portray him as this angry looking, explicitly evil entity, when heâs supposed to be completely alien. Let the guy rest and quit doing that to him. Let Lovecraftâs two big boys be the greater scope antagonists of a story for a change.
