For those curious:
One thing that hadn’t been mentioned yet in this thread is that when voice acting is sub-par, it’s not as noticeable when it’s not in my native language. That’s my own experience anyway.
I personally struggle with English VAs often when they seem to ham it up more than seems appropriate, or don’t seem to take things as seriously as the scene’s tone.
I’ll have to respectfully disagree on this. More power to Matt and his prolific career, but man, can we please have some other voices.
Edit: My goal is to be immersed in the story, and having a small group of VAs work on everything becomes distracting, in my experience.
Clearly the mods all vacation in Cincinnati.


In addition to the other comment, it currently has some pretty rough performance issues with big libraries.
I am not clear if this comment is a joke or serious.
If serious, what do you mean, and why is that? I am curious.


To be fair, it is a thorny issue.
I found the prose to be serviceable, the plotting/pacing to be quite good, and the characters of varied complexity. It’s a fun romp and a light read. The sibling comment about juvenile humor is accurate, you’ll have to tolerate a certain level of ongoing sexdoll/fart/gore jokes. It’s relatively benign.
The author does seem to think the interior of any living being is made of spaghetti though, based on his description of every injury sustained by any creature.
ymmv
Far be it from me to defend the imperial system- I love and daily work in metric, but you realize nearly all ancient measurement systems are created around commonplace physical measures (body parts, strides, etc.) and simple multiples thereof to make their use easy, yeah?
We’ve got a lot of tools at our disposal now to both standardize and make working with a decimal system a lot more doable than before.
The length really isn’t important, it’s about how you use it.
Fidelity means not cheating, itdoesnt have anything to do with partner count, and is not synonymous with monogomay. You can be in a poly relationship, and practice fidelity by not cheating on your poly partners.


I just bought a machine with an NVIDIA card which I am going to install Mint on. Do you have any advice?
(I had planned to get an AMD GPU, but was unable to for various reasons.)
I believe that have swapped the Steam Machine in for the Kaaba at Mecca- the Islam holy site. The Kaaba is already a big black cube, so it works well.
This may just be me, but I’ve read a handful of books by Iain M. Banks, and found them all to have uneven or odd pacing that can make it easy to get stuck. If you like the overall vibe it’s worth pushing through, and it’s not just you!


This is the way. It works great, I’ve been running it for years.
Now that is a high stakes strength check.
I agree with this assessment, having played both It Takes Two and Split Fiction.
The ‘moral of the story’ in It Takes Two seemed especially bad in my opinion, for how serious the topic topic they chose to address was.
But yes, the gameplay and puzzles are a lot of fun to learn and work through with a partner.
