What is /v/'s opinion on Pathologic?

I tried it out but I think I might be too stupid for this game. They just fill you up with so much information at once and don't stop to explain anything so I just end up confused.

I just grabbed it on the steam sale and wanted to see what the general consensus is.

Give kids trash to get bullets to get money to get bread.

>Pathologic

Never played it, but The Void sucked, though.

>>323041690
it's actually very easy once you get the hang of it, if you just keep at it you should be good withing a few in-game days.

>paying money for food

>>323042945
thanks anon!

>>323043009
damn that sucks to hear because i bought it from gog

did you actually finish the game or just played some of it?

>>323043009
its gone from steam. why?

>>323041541
It's very interesting.

Never got far in it. I keep meaning to go back to it but other, easier, games keep distracting me.

>>323043228
probably a publisher issue. You can still get a steam key from G2A

>>323043228
Could be a crackdown on full frontal nudity.

No, I beat about half of it. It's really hard, and if you mess up once, you pretty much have to start from the very first level.

Meme game. Just a stupid fucking meme game.

Oh, wait, it's not popular yet?

Yeah, it's actually pretty great.

>>323043009
You suck

>>323043730
A game this weird is hard to get popular, it's the same principle as Zeno Clash.

Search bins for empty bottles, fill them at one of the water fountains, give water to drunks for bandages and tourniquets, use them to heal and sell excess. Do this and you'll never have health or money problems. No money problems means no food problems, but best to buy all the food you can on Day 1 because the price hikes afterwards. Never sell anything you can trade with the children and always try to trade with them whenever you find them. Get their powders and hoard them.

It's not a very difficult game once you understand all that, and it only took me a couple of nights to get into the swing of things. Got lucky in that I guessed the powders would come in useful later.

>>323043730
Have you ever tried forming your own opinions?

>>323043009
Shit taste.

>>323044313
Nope! As a /v/ user, I have to follow the crowd. Therefore, anything that's even remotely popular is a "meme game", and anything that isn't well known is possibly good.

Seriously man, it's 2016, get with the times. It's not that hard to understand. Join the undertale hating bandwagon, and other shitty meme games like Bastion, and Minecraft.

Stop

This is why I quit /mu/

Zeno clash was gay. It had combat that felt good but ultimately was simple as hell.

>>323044723
You're missing the desperate resignation the typical /v/irgin accumulates over the years. You're obviously new. Welcome to /v/ you faggot.

It's pretty good. Knowing Russian, I played it around when it came out, then again a couple of years ago, but I never had the will to make it through Clara's scenario.

Is it worth it?

I have a real soft spot for the Zeno Clash series tho. It's simple, but it feels kinda visceral, and I loved the weird, weird world it built.
Only touch Zeno Clash 2 if you have a good friend and want to play an open world RPG-esq game set in that same universe with more lore, weapons, characters and gameplay mechanics.

It adds that complexity you were wanting, but also made the combat feel looser as a result. I still love the absolute mess that it is though.

Is this a thread where we pretend that Ice Pick Lodge's games aren't obtuse and tedious experiences whose only merit is the oddshot visual design?

People say it's no fun but after Day 4 I found it a lot of fun.

>>323047546
You're ignoring the fun, bizarro art design

>>323047546
You got the wrong place, that thread's two blocks down.

>>323047665
But I just mentioned it as their chief quality.

>>323047665
That's literally what he said

>>323041541
It's one of the best survival games I've played so far but I wish it was more varied and well made

>>323047745
FUCK YOU

>>323047237
I liked it from several hours I put into it, but it felt very stunted in a sense that it evoked more open maps and all it consisted off were walled off corrals.
