Why are you writing this as if you stumbled across this remake? Your account name is literally the url of the itch.io site.

Edit: your first post ever is even saying you made the game and the only thing you post about is this game. Weird.

Dieser Lemmy verdient auch ne Raucherpause.

Dann aber auch billiger außerhalb Stoßzeiten und mit Öffnungszeiten von Webseiten, ja?

Yawn.

Welp, not much longer it seems.

Well, this is how I learn Patrick Stewart died.

Given prices of hardware these days devs should definitely be better at this.

Well, I am the wrong person to ask that, we killed it early. From what I remember it only roams the houses, other places you get to later in the game it doesn’t reach.

Unfortunately he did deliver a few times and he has been milking those ever since.

Brings back memories. Played Ecstatica with a friend as a teenager, that weird satan demon enemy was super scary to us.

Then we decided to kill the demon. We got that bulky armor that essentially kills you when you fall down, got some sword, then somehow in sheer luck pinned the demon into a corner of a random house and just kept pressing the attack button.

I kid you not, I think it took 20-30 minutes of continuous slashing the demon with a sword. We positioned ourselves so well the demon couldn’t move while we hit it. We took turns pressing the button since it got tiring.

After like 10-15 minutes we thought, what if you actually cannot kill it. Then a while later it actually died and we wondered if it maybe just comes back later. It didn’t.

After that the game was super easy.

Edit: I was curious what demon that was, turns out it is supposed to be a werewolf.

Vielleicht überrascht dass es weniger als erwartet war.

Well after something like this it is always either the best thing ever or was a total shitshow.

So it outpaced the profit margins of scientific publishing? Damn! And that article is from 2020 and cited it as 40% for Elsevier, it certainly went up since but surely not to 90%.

Yeah, it was a pretty good read, although the 4th and last one in the series dragged it a bit more than needed. But that is also the book revealing what I mentioned, so you do need to read them all if you are curious.

The first 2 books are pretty self-contained though and give some glimpse into the AI backstory but not the whole picture.

I think they’ve read the Hyperion series written by Dan Simmons and are just parroting how Dan described the Technocore, an entire race of AI entities, got big.

Aww, now I wanna see how terrible it looked!

Weil die durchschnittliche Lebenserwartung in Deutschland sich immer weiter verbessert.

I am very conflicted about this. It is very effective but also a terrible way to deter attacks. I mean look at all the Asian countries still cleaning these up and all the pictures of kids with missing limbs thanks to these.

It’s… beautiful

This might self-regulate itself unless those AI copies reach a certain quality. I mean if you are a gamer and its buggy crappy demo after demo, and you can tell that they all copied this one game, wouldn’t you want to test that one rather than all the sloppy shit?

But that does require you to have a way of knowing what the original is.
