Thing is: you don't need to look at it longer than a second to understand what is meant to be conveyed. So no, goal achieved, good use of resources instead of overspending on one useless metric (=making it realistic)

Thanks for the review!

What I find fascinating is that there is no fixed solution, even though it is a detective game. Therefore you can't just look up in a guide, but rather still need to do the detective work and deduce the culprit from the clues.

EDIT: seems I confused this game with the "official" Blade Runner game in my mind. So disregard the following paragraph.

It also is an interesting game in regard to Kojima himself. While it is cinematic, especially for its time, since it was one of the first visual novel games, the non linearity regarding who is an android and who isn't is in contrast from the story/gameplay linearity of his Metal Gear series. You can play Snatcher multiple times and each time it will be different.

I still have to play this game, I didn't manage to make the emulation work in my last attempt. So thanks for the reminder.

Wieso denn das? Gibt es beim Elektroautos abschleppen Besonderheiten zu beachten oder einfach nur "wenn auto nicht brumm brumm macht ist kein auto"?

Vinegar is perfectly fine for that. With a bigger amount of minerals you just need more vinegar and time.

You are technically right that the water heater softens the water a bit by precipitating the minerals around the heating element and thereby removing them from the water. But that is energy inefficient and expensive, since you normally don't use a water heater to soften your water but rather to get warm water. So putting another system in front of the heater that softens it first is better than replacing the heat element every so often.

But to be honest, it was a magical moment to follow the "rubber band" and realize what exactly it is. And by that I mean the eldritch horror summoning ritual kind of magic.

I think a death certificate and your will are enough. Only one of the two is probably not enough.

Wait, your police is acting on those reports? Any hints on how to manage that?

Just a small correction: Horus is not the god of death, but the god of ruling, war and the sky. The role of god of death fits better to Anubis or Osiris, depending on how you interpret the role.

Ich bin gerade dabei Midnight Mass zu schauen, thematisch zu Halloween passend. Die Serie ist entspannend langsam und nimmt sich Zeit die Charaktere und deren Beziehungen zueinander einzuführen. Es ist nicht Erschreck Horror, sondern eher psychologischer Horror, auch wenn ich derzeit erstmal nur für die erste Hälfte eine Aussage treffen kann.

Auch thematisch passend spiele ich gerade Still Wakes the Deep, bei dem man auf einer Bohrinsel gefangen ist und der Horror ausbricht nachdem irgendwas unter See freigesetzt wurde. Das Spiel ist wunderbar atmosphärisch, vor allem wenn man die schottisch-englische Sprachausgabe wählt. Spielmechanisch macht es nichts neues, sondern ist klassisches "Versteck dich vor dem Monster" plus Rätsel und QuickTimeEvents. Aber ich mag es, wie gut die Bohrinsel ins Spiel übertragen wurde und wie überall die Kostenminimierung des Ölkonzerns dem Protagonisten das Leben schwer macht. Gute Sozialkritik inklusive also.

Und abschließend war ich auf der Messe "Spiel" letztes Wochenende in Essen. Es ist immer wieder erschlagend, wie groß Brettspiele mittlerweile sind. Aber es war eine super Atmosphäre und alle hatten gute Laune. Alleine würde ich nicht unbedingt hingehen, aber mit Freunden, die auch Brettspiele mögen, ist es wunderbar.

Yes, but again: only with 8 minutes delay. Gravity also only moves at light speed.

Back to normal could mean the Collector put everything in its original position, so the random floods, weather events and other calamities will end in 8 minutes again, no worries!
