The thing about Speedball II was that it was made by The Bitmap Brothers. You can remake their games all you want, but it's always going to miss the X factor without the Bros.

This was something I found strange in the new Alien: Romulus film, why were the temperature readings in a science vessel for a space faring civilisation in Fahrenheit!?

So I figured it's about time I gave this game a shot.

I'm familiar with the series, but never really loved it, have played all previous titles but most of my time is on F3 and FNV.

I think the reason why I didn't pick this up earlier was because I didn't feel like going further into the Fallout universe, it felt like Bethesda were milking the golden cow.

Of course I'm trying it now as I picked it up cheap and the TV series has come along, of which in almost at the end of. It very much feels like the TV show is Fallout 4 on TV, but then I've never played F76.

The game is nice, very familiar to what I remember of F3 and FNV, I wonder how open it is with the perks system, or will I have to put levels into gunplay at some point?

I'm trying to stick to the main quest to start with, I've helped out the Minutemen, and then made a b-line to Diamond City before setting off to find the private detective so still pretty early on. Dogmeat is a fine companion for the road.

Any tips or suggesting for a good start, and play through?

There is a patch landing at the end of the month, so I haven't experimented with any mods just yet.

Because maybe they actually love being a teacher?

Are you having a nice rant?

When people talk they speak in the 12 hour clock, but written communication is in 24hr

Yes, but you need to work with a porting company or pay for proprietary software

Specifically, whose story am I playing?

I'm playing two games at the moment, a single player run through as a custom character, and a coop run-through as Wyl in the second player slot.

I've noticed that in coop I get a lot of story if I instigated chats with NPCs or scripted events even while sleeping at camps.

How will the game end in this way, will player one and player two get two endings?

In my single player playthrough, if I decided to move Gael to my first character slot and control him would I get a Gael playthrough instead of my custom character? Would that mean there's no point in starting as Gael as an origin character?

Does anyone know the difference here?

In my experience it's like 2 players have full agency to play independently, unlike other coop games where the experience for player two is often driven by player one.

In BG3 you can run off in completely different directions, engage with your own NPCs in conversation while the other player starts a fight and it's seamless

They're a strange developer are Fatshark, clearly very talented creatively, but their business side needs improvement.

Poor choices but with MTX and their project management is dire

I'm not convinced she can act

Tank controls, each stick would control the speed of one side of wheels.

It's a pretty silly design apart from looking like a snail.

The folding is barely space saving, also the space required for folding would mean there are no internal parts, so where's the engine?

If you hit anything you'll get catapulted off the front it your legs crushed to noodles
