Jesus. I played this game first when I was 12 and I was fascinated by it. My PC was crappy but ran this game smoothly and it looked so awesome, with the dinamic shadows and realistic scenery. The controls and movement took long for me to get used to. It felt very complex to me to do progress. I remember getting stuck in the combat tutorial, and dreading it, because of this.
Maybe some days or weeks later I managed to pass the tutorial and entered Burkitsville, which I love for the very authentic vibe of old rustic relaxed town with a lot of old people with stories and young people that may revitalize the town in different ways. This concept of young vs old blood is also developed in Pathologic and real life.
I dreaded the second day night so so much. It was the day that paralized my progress for maybe weeks, because stuff get nightmarish at night and you need to confront monsters. I will never forget my young self scared and overwhelmed in the hotel room just listening the radio songs oldies to calm myself and carefully think about whether or not head outside. Jesus. I spent hours like this.
I think months later I printed a guide from internet to try solve the puzzles, because I was getting stuck this way as well. It was all about the plan to distract the sherif to head to the forest. The guide is still online and I recommend everyone to check it!! I can't link it but the authors are Linda Shaw, Ozma, and Norma Kuderna. It's from October 3, 2000.
It was thanks to that guide (and the game narrative) that my knowledge in english vocabulary and grammar, plus skills in reading and listening greatly improved, and it gave me momentum to keep developing my potential. I was still very young, and since this game, I became top student for english from this year until graduation, and currently I'm beyond the skills of english teachers. (Studied english pedagogy).
Naturally, Elspeth Holiday is an instant waifu I hope every survival horror fan to experience.
I like how it's basically a story expansion for nocturne and we get to play Doc Holiday instead of the stranger. Originally you were supposed to okay various characters but got scrapped. Great story honestly.
Basically an unofficial sequel to Nocturne (you play as a side character from that game). This game is even harder to make to work than Nocturne, as with Nocturne if you have the disc and an old computer on XP or Vista, it should run without issues. But Blair Witch does not. It require a specific modification in files wich i can't even remember what it is, and without it, the game won't work.
Foi um dos primeiros games que joguei no meu primeiro PC, lá no início dos anos 2000. Com um Celeron 1.1GHz, 128MB de RAM e 8MB de vídeo, me garantiu boas lembranças e muitos sustos. Considero um dos jogos mais assustadores que já joguei no PC. Era um survival horror que merecia ser trazido de volta.
I don't know, from the perspective of a gamer who is almost 40 years old, objectively speaking it is a very average game. However, 25 years ago I was in love with it (as well as with the other 2 parts). I am having a midlife crisis :D and I return to the old titles with nostalgia. It would be nice to hunt the witch again and immerse myself in this brilliant atmosphere...
[ENG] Mega badass classics. I'm talking about the entire Blair Witch trilogy. I'll never forget how I bought the entire trilogy at the last minute for 200 zlotys, so I can still return to these masterpieces at any time, worse because many people don't have such a komert. Part one (Volume 1: Rustin Parr) is the most atmospheric part of the series. The action takes place the earliest, and the production itself focuses more on telling us a great story along with the use of several interesting gameplay mechanics. It would be good if this product were again on sale on the market. I count on the availability of this product in the GOG store in the future, because it's worth it.
[PL] Mega kozackie klasyki. Mówię tutaj o całej trylogii Blair Witch. Nie zapomnę jak wykupiłem w ostatniej chwilii całą trylogię za 200 złociszy, dlatego mogę jeszcze w dowolnym momencie wrócić do tychże arcydzieł, gorzej bo wiele osób nie ma takiego komortu. Część pierwsza (Volume 1: Rustin Parr) jest najbardziej klimatyczną częścią z serii. Akcja dzieje się najwcześniej, a sama produkcja w sobie stawia bardziej na opowiedzenie nam świetnej historii wraz z użyciem kilku ciekawych mechanik rozgrywki. Dobrze by było, gdyby produkt ten znów był w sprzedaży na rynku. Liczę na dostępność tego produktu w przyszłości w sklepie GOG, bo warto.

Discworld II: Mortality Bytes!Discworld II: Mortality Bytes! is the second point-and-click adventure game based on Terry Pratchett's series of fantasy novels set on the mythical Discworld. The game was developed and produced in 1996 by Perfect Entertainment for the PC, and ported in 1997 for the PlayStation and Sega Saturn. It was published by Psygnosis for the PC and PlayStation, and by Sega for the Saturn (only in Europe).
In Discworld II the player controls Rincewind the "wizzard" (voiced by Eric Idle, as in the previous game) who has been burdened with the task of coercing Death out of his impromptu retirement and back into his regular duties. The plot borrows from a number of Discworld books, most notably Reaper Man, Moving Pictures and Lords and Ladies.
It all begins in a quiet Ankh-Morpork street, where Rincewind and The Librarian inexplicably fail to die from a nearby cart-bomb explosion. The odd event is not shared by them alone however: occurrences of the newly dead re-awakening and disturbing the populace are being reported all over the city, prompting the Archchancellor of Unseen University to halt his usual activities of feasting and merrymaking, and to take charge of the situation. Much to Rincewind's despair, the entirety of this process involves appointing him to the task of finding Death and convincing him to resume his work.Fantasy Comedy
