Yesterday I was playing and there was a puzzle with two gears, (one moving and one stationary) and I couldn’t figure out how to get the stationary gear moving .
I took my spear and stuck it against moving gear and it transferred the motion to the stationary gear and that solved the puzzle.
I was so shocked I went online to see what was the intended way to solve this and I didn’t see anyone solve it quite the way I did (from the few videos I watched).
I definitely believe that this “intuitive” gameplay is the future of game design.
Indeed. The number of puzzles I solved thinking this will never work surprised me. One puzzle had me wanting to pull my hair out though. It was one of the jet rail puzzles. I looked up tips and one solution was as simple as creating a box and draping it over the rail and riding that across as you stood in the middle of it. I was done. 🤣
Star Wars is coming to Helldivers 2, unofficially that is, as a new mod revamps in-game models and sends players to a galaxy far, far, away.
Even if Redfall were a good game, the closure of Hi-Fi Rush proves even that doesn't matter in the industry.
Yeah it would have mattered especially since their huge game that year wasn't all that it was cracked up to be remember redfail was almost heavily promoted and hyped not to the level of starfield but still more promoted than the average game.
There was still a decent marketing campaign behind the game I'm sure millions were spent advertising it on websites and I saw a few billboards and bus stop signs in real life
No it wouldn’t matter it wouldn’t bring in enough profit to offset their 100 billion dollar acquisition. It would maybe delay the inevitable by some months.
I would f*cking think so. Good games are what draws people to your platform. It’s why I adored the 360 era with Gears of War being one of the highlights for me. You make sh*t games and it just makes your platform that much worse and you start gobbling up studios I like and then killing them off it also makes me hate your platform as well… just sayin’
Unless the game would’ve been War Zone, or Fortnite level. No. Maybe even Hell divers 2 I doubt would’ve been enough.
No it would not have, the ABK deal was great for Microsoft but horrible for Xbox. Over 100 billion dollars in acquisitions. That money has to be made back. That ABK deal essentially destroyed Xbox as we know it.
Congrats svoulis! *Shoots fireworks*
Seriously, gotta love seeing people winning those big prizes and I am sure that all of us are happy for him (and maybe jealous... I am not...well since I already own one :P)
Anyway, congrats to coolbea-... Wait... LostDjinn is after my booty now ;_;
I am gonna have a heart attack..
Wow Thank you so much guys.. Seriously
Wish there was a way to capture the moment you read the news. Congrats!!
Congrats to all! That's certainly some news that'll brighten your day!
Glad you enjoyed the blog, o' humble judgy judges. Funny that one would be brought up since it wasn't too long after submitting that blog my optimism on the scoring aspect was marginally shot down after a poster who's done some reviewing for certain sites gave some insight about his experiences.
I don't want to just take the gift and run, though. As the saying goes: it's always better to give than receive. So, I got something for a Mr. LostDjinn.

Yes, it does feel better to give.
Edit: Congrats to other winners as well.
