Good to hear Gizmo's impressions on Firewatch. It's a game I've been eager to play for a while, but have been put off by performance issues on the PS4.

Also, based on your discussion on The Witness in this and the previous podcast, it seems like the game isn't for me.

Same here and the PC issues kinda caught me by surprise.

Tagging more people this time since we've done some non-gaming stuff too: [MENTION=55663]rotipuj[/MENTION] [MENTION=62046]Jester[/MENTION] [MENTION=38771]Anurin[/MENTION]

@Ranger Taffles : I would recommend playing Firewatch but not at that price. $20 is a bit much for a 2-3 hour game with little to no replay value. The artstyle is fantastic and the animations, though there aren't many, are nice. The music was something I really liked as well. The highlight of the game is definitely the conversations between Henry and Delilah.


@Gizmo : spoilers for Firewatch
Spoiler: show
I found the ending to be kinda disappointing even though I understand why it is the way it is. Also, that mystery was never really interesting in the first place so I didn't care much about that.

BTW, the choices only result in some different dialogue and nothing else.

@CerebralTiger : The 1.02 patch locks the game to 30fps which fixes some of the issues, apparently. But like I said, I wouldn't recommend the game at that price.


@RT and Giz: SUPERHOT is great. Probably the most innovative shooter I've played. Kinda short though, but it has or will have custom levels so that should be cool. It has a few issues with stuttering when you move at full speed, but you hardly ever do that so it doesn't bother me all that much.

    It's based on an actual real life person so I don't think the woke police have a valid case here.
    Nope. They have a very valid case. The above video explains it all.

    Meanwhile Ghost of Tsushima PC version is out now. Looks 100 times better than ASS Creed already.

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.
