Baggie
10 years of sys admin/dev ops, got a full redundancy package September last year. Market was really hot at the time, but I wanted some time off due to health stuff. Since the start of the year it’s been pretty dead, there are some positions here and there but the interest is way way less than it was even at the start of my career.
Yeah, also been saying this for years. Loss leading into jack up the prices.
Admittedly I thought it would happen a bit later, usually I expect them to try to force out the competition, then go for the prices. Guess that’s not an option when steam is around.
I recently replayed it. It’s kind of a weird one, but yes I’d say worth 5 bucks even as a window into the past.
The interrogation gameplay mechanics are a bit vague and difficult to understand exactly how to make the game do what you want, or even what you think the entire mechanic does, but to its credit it doesn’t usually give you a hard game over when you make mistakes. I failed an interrogation for example, but I got a few extra scenes of comedy that I didn’t see last time when I succeeded.
It pioneered facial capture in video games, but it’s out of sync with the rest of the body animation. Combine that with the low res textures and it’s a bit uncanny at times. Fascinating to see given where motion and facial capture is today though.
