DisturbedSwan Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Yeah it just passed me by unfortunately, I think I own it on 360 and on my Desura account on PC, but just never got round to playing it, will have to try to make some time for it in the Summer or something.

HandsomeDead Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 You perhaps don't need to play Braid at this point. All you need to know is it's like an immaculate and beautiful landscape painting by a serial killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Reflex Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Braid is good, but there gets to a point where it goes from "Hey, I'm so smart for working that puzzle out" to "I literally have no idea how I worked that out" to "What the blazing fuck am I meant to do here? I've tried every option my mortal brain can conjure." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 The main game I don't remember being that bad but the hidden stuff was ridiculous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoboticMonk3y Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Yeah, it's probably more than many expected, especially for an 'Indie' game but then it's a MUCH bigger game than many expected as well and has been in development for 7 years so I don't begrudge them pricing it that high at all, Sly's right though, it will, unfortunately, affect sales. Also, Floyd, I thought Braid was meant to be awesome? Never played it but only heard good things, you didn't get on with it? It's a puzzle game that involves manipulating time and thinking outside the box. Manipulating time is no problem, I do it every day, but thinking outside the box? No can do. In all seriousness, it was really hard, I barely made any progress in it. I remember you had to move a key around the map, it was so annoying. I'm sure there are people on here that loved it though...Nag probably beat it with his eyes closed. the level "the fickle passenger" almost made me snap my controller in half.

DisturbedSwan Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Reviews should be out at 3PM UK time today! Heard decent rumblings from a few of the Journo's I follow on twitter about it, so am predicting an 85% average on Metacritic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiofloyd Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Wow, this game has reviewed well. IGN - 10 Destructoid - 10 Videogamer - 10 Game Trailers - 9.4 Game Informer - 9.25 Gamespot - 9 PC Gamer - 89% Polygon - 8 Eurogamer - Recommended I love the sound of it but I have too many games to play to justify paying €40 for it, but I wouldn't blame anybody that does. Sounds pretty special. I'll have to nudge it up my Steam wishlist a little... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendo Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 I watched most of the GB quick look video. I like it, will definitely be buying it once my net gets turned on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroed Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Not seen or read much about this at all, which is how I like to go sometimes. Going to look at a bit of the Quick Look in the morning and glance at one or two reviews, and then more than likely make a purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duck Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Wow, this game has reviewed well. IGN - 10 Destructoid - 10 Videogamer - 10 Game Trailers - 9.4 Game Informer - 9.25 Gamespot - 9 PC Gamer - 89% Polygon - 8 Eurogamer - Recommended Good Job Radio. Metacritic can be helpful sometimes... But posting reviews like this tells me all more than just a number, even tho it is more work. As for The Witness. I think I'm going to pick it up. it looked like it was just a series of pipe puzzles going by trailers but going by reviews there's a lot more mystery to it than that. Excited to play it.

retroed Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Me too, but I'm weak so I'm buying it. CD Keys have £15 PSN cards for £13.99, so it can be got for £28. Less if you have an account and use the 5% Facebook discount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
