i actually like Brigade E5: New Jagged Union more and i think it's worth trying if you like 7.62. one thing E5 does better than 7.62 is that all of the buildings can be entered and have multiple floors, which actually makes fights more interesting

Really now? Is it more stable than 7.62, or at least as moddable?

It's not that he had a change of heart, like Russian Ultranationalist fuckers are still fascist/Nazi bastards, it's more like he decided to try and switch clubs when the whole Ukranian conflict occurred, a lot of Russian Ultranationlists decided to go "No to waaaar!!! Putin baaad", when ironically these fuckheads still keep pushing the idea of "Fuck every immigrant! Muh Russia is fo muh Russians!!", and well we Russians rarely blip out slurs, mostly because youtube already removed money from them. So, they need to earn cash by other means anyway.

Being against immigrants and against brother wars seems like a very consistent position.

The game looks fine but too derivative of Fallout to feel unique. Like a glorified mod.

It's alright, i played it up to the part where he gets sent on the bug hunt, actually turned off the video shortly after because it put me in the mood to giving it another go and i didn't want to get spoilered. I'd go as far as saying it's more a direct plagiate of Fallout 1 and 2, just Russia-themed and with no fixed perspective, instead of just being derivative but it is a good one. Liked it a lot more than Encased (which, while being derivative of Fallout and other classic CRPG, does more of its own thing than Atom), which has a great setting, okay writing and good mechanics in its first two hours, only to completely shit the bed shortly afterwards, around the time the world fully opens up, the point i dropped it at. I think Warlockracy made a video about Encased, too, but i haven't watched it yet.

Also that near blind Jewish assassin has a pretty interesting life story.

Well, reason it's derivative is because the devs are huge fans of the OG Fallout games and wanted to capture that same feeling, but with a more Eastern European tone to it. A lot of stuff in ATOM is only references those who live in former USSR states will understand.

It's definitely "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery", but the issue is that a lot of the plot points and gameplay parts are so similar to the original so there's no nothing to be surprised about.

I loved Planescape Torment, but I can’t stand the planescape setting as a TTRPG. I wished Black Isle studios, old school Bioware and obsidian made a CRPG set in Dark Sun. Back when triple AAA gaming and even WOTC went full woke retarded with appealing to critical role fake geeks. Which considering all the Hasbro layoffs at WOTC over the disappointing 6E sells. The fake geek trend is dying and Funkopop money is drying up. Talking about 5E reminds of the main tabletop gaming thread awhile ago was making fun of a YouTube channel called Halfling hobbies. Not only didn't the girl running the channel even know Ravenloft was supposed to be a dark setting. How badly 5E neutered Ravenloft. She thinks Eberron the magic steampunk setting, is the darkest D&D ever got. Ravenloft is her favorite setting. Greyhawk and forgotten realms were both darker than Eberron.

I mean, Eberron is def very pulpfiction and does play off the land after this long war conflict happened. So, it can be dark with the right mood, but I dont think its Ravenloft levels.
 
Good video, like a lot of people I always had the game on my backlog but never actually attempted it. Sounds like an extremely good story game that's terrible to actually play.

I just loath the entire multiverse shit in DnD that isn't basic heaven/hell/elements. It's just too much fucking with the scale and does massive content creep.

I also never liked the blood war because it's pretty ridiculous evil is massively overpowered compared to good in a setting where good aligned gods exist and you can easily communicate with them.

Apparently Enhanced fixed alot of the bugs from the base game but the thing that bothered me was the sprites sticking out from the background more. I don't remember that in the original.
You can still get the original off of GOG through their launcher but otherwise it's only enhanced which I don't like cause Beamdog

Torment as a story is about a lot of little moments, TNO finding his name, Zirthamon's Circle. It was Avellone at his best.
He also skipped over a few things. Like finding the diary of the Paranoid one after getting mazed by the Lady and only escaping by killing yourself. Grace's last line if you go with her, "Time isn't your enemy, Forever is." The being TNO can summon if you use a fake name enough. Even missed Modron but he's stuck in a 40+ battle maze I think which is a pain to get through because the combat in Torment was always jank.
 
Anybody else similar to this guy in style and speaking? Insanely great for getting a man sleepy after a midnight shift and I'm running out of videos

Tehsnakerer is a bong semi professional games critic that specializes in too long reviews for Yakuza games and Eurojank from both sides of the Berlin Wall and is not adverse to tackling modern controversial games like the New Saints row. His cadence is a lot faster than Warlock, his accent is also softer and his humor is dryer and flatter than expired tonic water. He is also more self aware than the resident slavic jew.

He's a lot more mopey and melancholic than Warlockracy and his recent videos have all been ultra-autistic documentaries, but another Bong is also relevant - NeverKnowsBest's Mass Effect video falls pretty well into the school of thought that Warlockracy has tried to establish around Fallout.
