Call of Cthulhu on GOG - gog.la/Cthulhu THE LIST - docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_K3ziSxT9zcUUGCddS4sF1uNJTWHSbOwB1CQX2Rx4Uo There was something fishy about this one.

Glad they bring back that game to GOG, they removed it like week after release or something, hilarious... What next? Boiling Point is nice and it sadden me it's still not on Steam. I see Brigade E5 is nowhere to be found on your list. Was it removed or it will be next? Cause Apeiron's games are criminally underrated Jagged Alliance successors. Maybe Underrail? Come on, mix of Deus Ex, Fallout and Metro is too awesome to handle for average dorritos consumers. VtM Bloodlines is serial replay material. The Dark mod sadly won't go to Steam so it need all attention. Not everything get Dwarf Fortress popularity outside of Steam. Severance Blade of Darkness is legit great and these cowards from Codemasters should get their shit together cause it's not racing game to revoke after licence expires...

Fun fact - every line of dialogue in this game from "Locked." to the fishmen's gibbering and all of the game's sound effects are in the game's files as .ogg files you can just play in your media player. Once I finally sort through them all they're certainly going to spice up my D&D sessions!

I think eldritch horror can be done correctly; however, most attempts result in either giving up after the start or defaulting to non-Lovecraftian horror. I think The Sinking City has moments that very closely approach this. For example, there is an abandoned hospital. There is no quest or anything associated with it. You go inside. It is dead quiet. Zero wildbeasts spawn in this building. There is random blood and human-like prints on the ceiling, walls and floor. You find out through a note that everyone here was killed by some "baby" that chewed off its own umbilical cord and killing people as well as moving around like a demon.

I had the Xbox version and religiously played it growing up, and I have to add that it's not as messed up as the pc version apparently is. Although the design flaws in the gameplay is the same, I don't really recall the enemies' ai being as bad, and the cliff with waves section actually did pull you into the water if you weren't holding on to the rings and the only game ruining glitch I recall coming across was the drainage puzzle in the sewers not working. In my opinion, if you're wanting to try out this game, try to get the Xbox version if you can.

The interesting thing about Jack's suicide is that he might not even be dead. He's half Yithian which means he could have shifted his mind into another being. Even if he was suicidal, it's possible he still unintentionally moved his mind into another's or he did it because the threat of otherworldly beings is still out there and he still wants to finish the job.

I want to play the Mandalore Reboot of this game. The premise he is advocating sounds amazing; searching desperately for clues through an increasingly hostile town that has been twisted into something horrifying by an ungodly godlike alien power. A stealth based game that integrates solving the mystery into every step, with sharp AI, tightened up combat mechanics, and a shortage of ammunition sounds like pure genius. It’s often terrible when an IP changes hands between people with radically different visions (cough _- starwars -_ cough! Ehem.)

That's a shame that the AI bugged out on him. The level with the police station was my favorite. I was shot dozens of times trying to get the key and guns, while figuring out everything without being seen.

The game is like a lottery when it comes to bugs, and it's different for every copy. If you don't get a copy with progression bugs, you get one where something else entirely doesn't work.

It might be something with a new hardware as well, some older games may get bugs based on hardware, as strange as it sounds. Take a classic Aliens vs Predator - the old, non-GOG/Steam versions get absolutely ridiculous AI-related bugs on newer hardware - something to do with a physics engine used in the game. You may see enemies sliding on the ground without any animation, falling to their death from a single step, sliding on textures like on ice, also to death, xenomorphs getting stuck on corners and so on and so forth.

I beat the game just this evening. The AI was fine for me, they were an exceptionally good shot at times making the stealth section more mandatory stealth than "run and pray". This was on normal too, so playing the harder difficulties should be a fun challenge. (I imagine segments like dagon and the shoggoth potentially ruining my day though)

One of the few games where stealth means actual stealth. I found I could avoid some confrontations simply by hiding, running and using hidden passages. That hotel sequence still haunts me. Straight out of the book and just as terrifying. This game could use a modern remake like Resident Evil 2.

I played Conarium recently. I'd recommend it. It's short, and kinda simple... but as a creepy exploration of HP Lovecraft stuff, it's spot on. You get to explore the ruins described in At The Mountains of Madness, and they're beautiful. If the guys who made that could remake Dark Corners, and focused on the adventure game mystery stuff, it would be truly excellent.

When I played this game the only bug I got was that the Shoggoth was invisible. The screen effects were still there so I thought it was intentional that the main character was purposely not seeing the entity. It fell apart at the end for me but I really enjoyed it.

I remember when the super best friends played this for the shitstorm... Good times I dearly miss... I was FASCINATED by this game wish I could have played it... The V.A for the main guy Jack did a fantastic job. Remember people did talk like that for a while. They did a great job building an environment filled with dread and horror just waiting around the corner. The lack of music just adds more spicy to the discomfort and uneasiness you're supposed to feel constantly.
