I've been watching Joel/Vargskelethor play this game a lot and finally started playing it myself. I spent like a half hour or so doing the tutorial, I don't normally play video games on keyboard so I really don't have the muscle memory quite yet.
After that I played through the first day and a half, finding signals fixing servers, and getting my first couple upgrades. At night there was a random(?) event of shooting stars outside that was actually really beautiful to watch.
Overall really enjoying the game so far, but scared for when the aliens start attacking me in the middle of the night. If you like space and scifi and aliens and a little bit of horror/comedy I'd really recommend checking out this game!
I've been just taking it really easy these past few days since I haven't felt very good, so I've been playing around with getting achievements for Dead Rising. The first day I played, I had Frank try on a bunch of different outfits, then I ended up leaving him in the last one he'd put on because I started working on something else. Now, I think it would kinda look weird to me if I changed it. So here's my Frank while I'm saving having a quick nap:
C'mon, Frank is WORKING that little black dress with the tasteful white shirt underneath, isn't he? The work boots make a good metaphorical statement for looking good but still able to do business. The business of... kicking zombies right in the face, yeah! 🧟🥾
And yes, he's laying his head on a mannequin leg. We were escorting a survivor, Greg, dang it, who had one little sliver of health left so I had to give him my health item so he could make it back alive and therefore I KEPT GETTING KILLED. I gave Greg a machine gun to defend himself with but he was bad about shooting me RIGHT in the back and killing me. Greg. 🤬 However, it worked out well when we opened the elevator that was packed full of zombies and I shoved Greg in front of me and he actually mowed them all down. Good job, Greg! *patpat* Anyway, we were heading back to the safe area and me and Frank were raining down THE LAW with a dumbbell that unfortunately broke. I was standing on some mannequin pieces and that's the first thing I could pick up. Hey, me and Frank work with what we have in order to save lives, man!
No, really, it was no problem. Happy to help. 😜
I was hoping to get a front and back shot in the mirror at the gym but it didn't work out that well. 🤷♀️
Frank and Jessie. I could ship it. *nodnods as if there was ever any doubt*
Heh, I just noticed the stick figures on the board behind them. 😂
Frank: "Look, Jessie, I have detailed out a plan where you and I will escape and live happily ever after!"
Jessie: "That's not the sort of game this is, Frank."
Frank: "Work with me, Jessie. I just dragged Machine Gun Greg all the way back to the safe room and died a whole bunch of times; I need some hope, okay???"
And on that graphic design is my passion note, I probably should get some sleep right about now, hm? 🤔😉😂
Anybody out there reading this who has played Dead Rising? Sound off if you have! 😎👍
Love you, frens, hope you're doing well! 🤗💖
PS - I can't blame Frank if his heart is torn, btw.
I'm pretty sure right now Frank is mentally adding a third stick figure to that board... 😜💖
Jessie: (yelling from the Security Room) "It's still not that sort of game, Frank!"
Check out Star Trucker! They have a demo out right now for Steam Next Fest. I'm honestly terrible at the game but they put so much work and detail into it. The game does feel like you're controlling a Big Rig in zero gravity. The in game radio is also fantastic and fits the game perfectly!
