IIRC you never actually have to shoot any of the civilians in that level, but as players we all assumed that you did. IMO that level was the most interesting commentary that has been made in the COD series because it (somewhat sneakily) put the onus onto the player. Most of us just assumed that we needed to gun down the civilians without choice. In my opinion its one of the more poignant moments in the entire series for how it handled such a grim story beat.

If you have the patience for it, try playing on a much harder difficulty. The medium and low difficulty levels don’t provide the same weight. Many systems in the game are unnecessary at lower difficulty levels but higher difficulty forces you to engage in them to get the extra edge over certain encounters.

Higher difficulties force you to engage in potion brewing, reading up on enemies, and making genuinely tough choices morally in order to keep Geralt alive. Lower difficulties remove all the tension from these systems.

Also as another user mentioned, don’t skip any dialogue and engage in the side quests/contracts as they give a lot of unique flavor and nuance to the world and story.

I think this belongs everywhere

Dredge

Had no idea what to expect going into it. Had only heard that it was a cosmic horror fishing game and decided to give it a try. Ended up loving it!

Not a huge game in terms of scope but feels it nailed every mechanic and the art style and delivery is top notch

If you’re playing games that give you a response with your heart rate, them id say that’s probably a bit risky. Would definitely be worth asking your doctor as I am not a medical professional. Could be worth trying some more chill games that don’t produce an adrenaline response like that.

This title is kind of obnoxious. What the Founder adds is that managers and C-Suite need to find other ways to motivate their employees. It’s not the “Nobody wants to work anymore” take that we see a ton of. The article writer has to have realized the ambiguity and kept it to drive engagement.

I’ve been there!! Amazing spot to play pinball, just wish they served beer… I’m pretty sure they have over 200 tables and some fairly rare ones. Bonzai Run, and Water world are 2 that had fairly limited runs but can be played there.

Alan Wake Remastered since I’ve never played it and want to be caught up for Alan Wake 2

Umm, high latency means slow reactions. I think you and OP meant the same thing, but you have the terms mixed up
