Update 95: September

Well this month looked good for most of it and then I won too many games… So 6 more this month than I have beaten . Though I made a lot of progress in Mass Effect Legendary Edition. Only have about half of ME 3 left.

Half-Life 2

Agent A: A puzzle in disguise

7.5/10
4.4 hours
25 of 30 achievements

This is a fun little puzzle game. I enjoyed it a lot. The puzzles are not too hard, though I would have liked some tips for some of the achievments.

Half-Life 2

Pinball Lockdown

6/10
1.1 hours
13 of 31 achievements

A nice pinball game, achievements could be better explained. Some of the ramps seem nearly impossible to be reached on purpose.

Half-Life 2

BioShock Remastered

8/10
21.5 hours
34 of 65 achievements

I really liked this game, even though it is a bug ridden mess. I probably lost about 8 h of gameplay due to a save game bug. Basically the game crashed nearly every time I tried to save it -_-

Other than that I really enjoyed it. Found the story interesting enough, but it is mostly told through collectible diaries, so if you miss a lot you miss most of the plot. Liked the plasmid system, since it gave you a lot of different ways to play the game.

Oh you had your new pop picking. I am still notified of when people leave because I commented once and it doesn’t turn off when you leave. I’m just watching the groups number dwindle. Still no pay gas I see

samwise84

Well tbf the group did not have the best leadership in the past year, with super late pickings and the like. It’s supposed to get better shrug

Zelrune

Congrats on all of your assassinations and your SG wins! I’ve heard a ton of neat things about The Outer Worlds, have fun!

samwise84

Thanks. Looking forward to it.

looks at Bioshock and runs away in fear

samwise84

It’s only the remastered edition though and there is a fix, if you don’t mind fiddeling with an ini-file.

MouseWithBeer

Oh, if there is a fix then so problem, editing ini files is nothing new.
I saw below that it is a problem with multiple CPU cores…. yea then I will most likely have issues other wise because 8 cores, 16 threads. Tho I still need to get my hands on the game anyways.

samwise84

Basically I had to tell the game to only run on 1, which is kinda dumb with a multicore system. But it fixed at least the save bug. Still crashed sometimes without reason, but at least not every time you tried to save.

MouseWithBeer

I was afraid it was going to be something like that yea >.< Better than nothing I suppose.

Cece09

Don’t worry maybe you will be lucky. My 2nd attempt at the game I only had 2 crashes and I assume that was because I was on a better computer! I was just so excited to be able to open up the voice history and junk that it kinda went over board and crashed

MouseWithBeer

Sam just said above that there should be a fix, so it should be all good hopefully :D

mrstasilo

Hmm I beat BioShock Remastered almost 3 years ago and can’t remember any technical issues. Mb I was lucky, who knows, but it’s a great game for sure.
I see you played Bioshock Infinite but Idk if you played Burial at Sea DLCs. They’re connected to 1st Bioshock, don’t want to spoil anything, just recommend you to play them.

samwise84

yeah from what I read it depends on your system. The remaster seems to have big problems with multiple CPU cores, don’t ask me why. And I have yet to play Burial at Sea. Looking forward to it :D
