Second week of November

I am trying to cram in as much gaming as possible before I am going to the Netherlands on Friday. I have absolutely no idea when the next weeks post will go up considering I will be at Qlimax on the night from Saturday to Sunday and travelling to and across Germany on Sunday and Monday. I am getting tried already just by thinking about that… I hope I survive :D

Completed SG wins

Advanced Mechanized Spacecraft
Playtime: 42 minutes
Achievements: 0 of 0
Review: Basically a weird spaceship building game with combat. Simply not a game for me. Linux version seems to work fine.

Other completed games

Adelantado Trilogy. Book Three
Playtime: 11.8 hours
Achievements: 0 of 0
Review: Just like with the previous one, it is a meh resource management game. Unlike the previous one this one thankfully didn't bug out on me but it still suffers from the same problem of the level being way too long. No issues with Proton.
Farm Together
Playtime: 98.1 hours
Achievements: 56 of 56 (100%)
Review: This game is something special. Not only did it completely eat every minute of free time I had for 2 weeks straight, it also had a similar effect to pretty much anyone I know. I can't quite put my finger on what it is because the game at its core is really grindy but it is enjoyable, satisfying and addicting grinding. Also it is basically 3D Farmville :D Linux version is really really good.
Life is Strange: Before the Storm
Playtime: 8.4 hours
Achievements: 34 of 34 (100%)
Review: Much better than thee first game because there is no godamn Max in it (no, I did not like her at all). The only thing that bothered me about the game was basically the illusion of choice this and the other Life is Strange games suffer from, but I could get over it and still enjoy the game anyways. No issues with the Linux version.
Adventures of Robinson Crusoe
Playtime: 2.8 hours
Achievements: 0 of 0
Review: I couldn't even get this game to start on Windows when I tried a year or so ago, on Linux (with Proton) the only issues it has is that in fullscreen it would randomly crash on tabbing out. That aside it is a very meh hidden object game where the hints are absolutely worthless if you are stuck on a object that requires more than one step to get it.
Alien Run
Playtime: 2.3 hours
Achievements: 0 of 0
Review: This runner game is so godamn frustrating that I gave up on it. It wouldn't be too bad of a game if I could easily tell which lane the flying enemies came at you in the air, but I couldn't. There is some graphical glitching of the background with Proton, but the game was still playable without issues.
Hospital Manager
Playtime: 4.1 hours
Achievements: 0 of 0
Review: A meh hospital management game. My main problem with it is just how limited it is in many aspects: expanding, upgrading, hiring,... As for the Proton version - it sometimes randomly crashes with a null object error but at least it has an autosave function which prevents you from losing too much progress. Other than that the Proton version didn't have any issues for me.
Luxor 2 HD
Playtime: 13.1 hours
Achievements: 0 of 0
Review: It is your good old Luxor match 3 game. There is not much more to say here. Works fine with Proton.

I hope you will survive too. At least until you come to Germany. I would hate to wait on you forever XD
Kidding aside I hope you’ll have a wonderful time :)

I will keep you updated :P
Thank you ^^

That’s so cool, I’m sure the long trek will be worth it. Stock up on sleep beforehand (you can totally do that right? :D) Have fun!
I wasn’t a big fan of Max initially but she grew on me. I was surprised to hear how many people hated Chloe (the biggest thing I consistently read re: Before the Storm was that ppl wished Chloe wasn’t the main focus). Am still hopeful I’ll enjoy it more than most.

huh I havent heard anything wrong with chloe but I havent bothered looking at stuff around those games. It doesn’t really surprise me though since she’s definitely that type of person who wouldn’t be everyones cup of tea. Personally I don’t love max but I also never disliked her

I hope so as well :) Work says no to the sleep but I will try my best to get as much of it as possible anyways. Thanks!
I am the complete opposite, I didn’t mind her as much at first but as time went on I disliked her more and more. And I did not mind Chloe at all. I hope you will as well :)

Wow you’ve had a productive week! And good luck with your travels ahead. :)
