What are the guns like?!

 

[old.user4556]

No guns. What were they thinking?!

Review here, looks fucking stunning, I could get really lost in a game like this for hours.

I played one that was not so good, dear Esther or something but this does look like a pretty good game for a Sunday.

Is it on Steam?

 

[TdC]

looks like Myst meets Alan Wake or something. Id love it1

 

[Billargh]

I'm struggling so much to not buy this right now.

@Raven , it is on Steam, £15.

 

[Raven]

Nice, will have a look tonight then.

 

[TdC]

ffs only 15 squids? another playable alpha version?

 

[old.user4556]

Purchased, 10 GB download, will do that overnight I think.

Hehe I can do that in 30 mins lol

Fuck me, when did graphics get so fricking awesome? The world is massive, the detail and textures are mindblowing.

Can you imagine what things will be like in the next 10 years? Give me that engine, even better, destructible world with high res oculus rift.

What kind of rig are you running G? I don't want to get this if I'm not going to be blown away by it.

 

[old.user4556]

Quad core i7 4770k @ 3.5 GHz, Nvidia GeForce GTX 660, 16 GB ram.

I'm running it at top whack res for my monitor (2560x1440), with all details turned up to high. I played around with the anisotropic filtering and got away with 2x filtering but I left the anti-aliasing turned off. The frame rate got quite choppy when I had that set high, but tbh at that resolution I didn't feel like I needed it.

It did whet my appetite for a faster graphics card as it reignited my PC gaming love!

 

[Raven]

There should be some bargains about soon with the new generation of cards coming along. Though current generation you are probably best off looking at AMD for higher than 1080 gaming.

If you have £500 burning a hole in your pocket you could look at the stonking new Nvidia 980s

 

[old.user4556]

The 980s looks superb, but I'm moving house soon so every penny is accounted for

I think @ECA should get this game to relish in his 4k awesomeness.

 

[ECA]

I have downloaded it, will give it a go

 

[fettoken]

Is it any good or get's derivative quick, with the whole spirit investigation thingy's and all?

 

[Hawkwind]

This is on steam 50% off 7.99 USD

 

[leggy]

Just bought it for 6 British clams

 

[old.user4556]

It's a very enjoyable, if short, play

 

[Billargh]

Very, very tempted.

Anyone actually played it? Doesn't seem to be any opinions of it yet in here.

 

[old.user4556]

I've played it, enjoyed it a lot, looks gorgeous, the puzzles make you think. Great twist in it too

Sold. Just gotta hope my PC remains powered on long enough to play it.

 

[old.user4556]

I really did lose myself in it.

Pro tip - explore everything!

I can't help but do that in every single game I play, in some cases I think it hampers my experience

 

[leggy]

Just fired it up - bloody hell this is a beautiful looking and sounding game.

 

[old.user4556]

That alone was enough for me to enjoy it. Imagine what 4k, VR games like this will be like in future.

 

[Billargh]

Even on low settings it looks beautiful, I'm playing with a hampered performance etc though just for the lovely graphics.

Still dunno what the fuck I'm meant to be doing, in some house puzzle that I can't quite suss out.
