Paging @BrianRubin.

Been flailing for a couple of hours straight.

Oh wow I never heard of this. Gameplay looks janky. Were they trying to mimic Tomb Raider? When was this game released?

It was an Unreal Engine third person shooter that came out in November 2000. Other notable games in that time period included Diablo 2 and Deus Ex in the summer, and then games like Quake 3, and Voyager Elite Force which used the Q3 engine. Monolith released the excellent No One Lives Forever. Console players got SSX, Shenmue, Jet Set Radio, Final Fantasy XI in a similar timeframe. We also got the quirky Sacrifice and Giants: Citizen Kabuto. It was a busy time with some excellent games.

It is a bit weirdly janky at times. I spent ten minutes trying to open two doors. I ran into them, shot them and used mines on them. Come to find there were panels next to them - same color as the background, mind you - that you’re supposed to walk up to and interact with in order to open the doors.

W. T. F?

But overall I’ve had a great time with it so far. All the actors are back reprising their roles except for Sisko (who is played by the excellent Kevin Michael Richardson) and O’Brien (who’s played by some guy really hamming up the Irish accent).

So if you’re a fan of the show, it’s really great to spend more time in that world.

Not on Steam or GOG!! Aaaaaaaaah!

Is it stuck in legal Neutral Zone?

Like most Star Trek games, likely so.

weeps for Starfleet Command II and Orion Pirates

Which is so weird since both Steam and GoG have the first Starfleet Command.

I know! When that happened I was anticipating the sequels with bated breath and then they never turned up. As an old tabletop Starfleet Battles nerd I really loved those games.

Greatest news ever? Yes.

I would pay a lot of money for new Birth of the Federation game.

I feel the same way about Klingon Academy.

Finally, in written content, I couldn’t think of a good discussion topic beyond a topic I wrote about six years ago. ;) In this week’s gaming check-in, I allow myself to strive for the balance I sorely need in my life, especially on this new road I’m taking.

That’ll do it for this week, my wonderful friends. Thanks so much as always for being amazing, and I hope to see y’all online somewhere. :)

So… Beyond Sol appears to be on sale this week for a mere fiver. Is good, I buy?

Is very good, you buy. It’s something of a space city builder and an ARPG with politics as well. VERY good, underrated game.

That said, it’s not at its historic low of $2.49. It’s easily worth a fiver, just letting you know.

That’ll do it for this week, my amazing friends. Thanks as always, I love you, and I hope to see y’all online somewhere during a stream or something. :)

The pew pew pew is strong in this one.

Nice find! Thanks!
