Yeah, that's not going to happen.

Fuck that. I'm no good at flying this stupid little ship and it's not fun. Absolute waste of my money, and I'm not happy.
How do you feel about walking simulators? No puzzles but I can recommend Everyones Gone to the Rapture if you just want to chill and explore.

So much loot to sort, but I haven't figured out my end game build for 3 toons yet.
I'm at the point now that I just vendor legendary guns if there is no anoint on them.

The AI is improved in the rest of the game, good enough for me to be content since I'm not very min-max-ey in this game, but still not as big a challenge as it should be.
They've added so many toys to the endgame of the game after so many expansions and patches, I love it. Just built a matter decompressor in a black hole and a death star. Death star is pretty useless tbh, not a great use of a unity perk.

I like puzzle games but not the ones where there is really no logical solution to the puzzles just some random order of doing stuff, I find those to be pretty frustrating.
What's your opinion on Witness ?
I'm currently playing Black Mesa which is a rework of Half Life with far better graphics and balance.

THE WITNESS is the best pure puzzle game I have ever played. It's on my all-time Top 10 of any game ever. So, I am pretty high on that game. It gets a lot right about how to do puzzle games, with "intro" material presented smartly for each puzzle type, but not overwhelming you with tedious bullshit. Very VERY polished. If you find a puzzle you can't do, it's because you didn't yet find the spot where they show you. And even then, maybe you'll sort it out.ThirstyMan wrote: I have this in my numerous list of unplayed Steam games. Is it any good?

I would ask you to avoid spoilers though, if only because there is a HUGE moment to best discover organically.

The hardest part, weirdly, was how powerful their armies were. I had to build a bunch of xenomorphs of out of desperation and land them on their planets because my vast armies of regular troops were having a really hard time.

I tinkered some with the original Bioshock last night and liked it, though stuff like that tends to make me edgy. But I went into a time warp with the first Borderlands. I shouldn't be surprised, its lineage is the same as other addictions I've had like Torchlight and Grim Dawn.
There was other stuff in the Bundle I've wanted to try, especially X-Com: Enemy Unknown, but I can tell you right now that I will SUCK at that game.

Edit-
Still enjoying the hell out of Resident Evil 2, although I suddenly find myself constantly out of ammo, and Mister X finally made his appearance. Yikes.

I should just stick with NMS and continue working around all the gee whiz stuff they want be to be interested in even though I'm not.
