Everyone told me this is such a good game and, you know, sure, it could be, but at this point i’ve learned to temper my expectations. But now that I’ve played it, I can honestly say that once you get past the (on-rails, nostalgia-bait) first 20 minutes, it evolves into one of the best games in a generation
This is really stupid, and I got the game for free with a GPU, so take this with a grain of salt:
The noise indie makes when he gets knocked down drove me absolutely crazy and was the leading cause of me dropping the game.
I remember seeing the light shine through fascists’ ears if the sun was at the right angle though. I thought that was an awesome detail.
I will have to keep playing then… I took a break after a few hours in that first area. No joke, I kept getting distracted and fucking up my disguise because I kept punching fascists. It’s so hard not to.
Games be pricey these days!
I can’t figure out if I want to call this a AAA studio game or an indy game.

How about the inbetween: a AA game
You can say a lot about CDPR but GOG is really cool. You can just download the installer and you are good to go. Even though you could run some games from Steam “portable” without having it “phone home”, it feels off to need Steam installed on your machine in the first place. Stopped buying games for my Switch as well. It just doesn’t even feel like I own those games, with the exception of physical releases, but even these are only playable on a Switch. I will be really happy once I switch my switch for a gaming handheld running linux. :)
I can highly recommend this if you’re any kind of Indy fan. It masterfully replicates the globetrotting adventure vibe and swashbuckling fighting of the movies, and Indy’s voice actor absolutely nails it.
Was not expecting this so soon after launch. Wonder if we’ll see more newer Bethesda titles soon. I’d love to play Starfield.
Keep your expectations in check with Starfield, I was sure I was going to love it but dropped it after 25hrs, it’s not very alive or entrancing imho. However I am confident in the narrative-centered game design from Machine Games to be sure I’d enjoy this Indiana Jones
Not even sure why I’m hoping for it as I barely have time to play anything anymore. What with kids, I game maybe 3 hours a week total. 25 hours in a game isn’t something I’ve done in a long time. Been buying a lot of short games because of this now. Very much enjoying Radiolight at the moment for instance, even though you can tell it’s built off an asset store. One of the character models didn’t fit in at all 😂.
And this is why I got hooked on roguelites. Hades, Spelunky, FTL, Enter the Gungeon, Slay the Spire, Crypt of the Necro Dancer, Rogue Legacy, Dome Keeper, Runestone Keeper. There’s probably so much more out there.
Starfield got a lot of hate, some of it well deserved, but I still enjoyed my time with it. I put maybe 60 hours into it, which to me is a long time for a game, so maybe my expectations are low, but I’ve got a family now so I don’t have the time I used to for video games. I’ll probably replay Starfield in the next couple years. It’s not a perfect RPG by a long shot but if you’re okay with a mostly linear game, and don’t mind loading screens, I’d say it’s worth it. It sort of reminded me of Fallout 4 a bit, in that the gameplay is well polished, but for an RPG it’s quite linear, only a couple good side quests (factions mainly) and most of the effort was put into a few aspects while lots of the world feels a little empty. Starfield takes it a bit further than Fallout 4, and I’d say Fallout 4 is a better game than Starfield, but you get the idea.
Neat. Always happy to see more stuff on GOG, even if it ends up just being a game that I still won’t buy on yet another platform.
