Even Italian industrial mozza has better taste

@long hearth what was the line..."for the first time i can remember, it's MY voice"
(portal 2 i mean)
i dont remember the exact wording but it killed the man
long hearth
Huh... I don't quite remember when was this line. Was it refered to Whitley?

Nah

Honestly I don't remember

It was GLaDOS right before the last battle

insert sadness
long hearth
Yeah, my memory is just awesome
buoyant sapphire
I've been hearing voices all my life. But now I'm hearing the voice of a conscience, and I'm terrified because for the first time it's MY voice.```Yup
I mixed it with the one that she said to Wheatley that she remembers this voice
As I said, my memory is just amazing xD
buoyant sapphire
I never actually understood what she meant by that line, to be quite honest
long hearth
The one you quoted?
buoyant sapphire
Yeah.
tropic garden
She's always had things attached to her to keep her under control or make her think one way or another
long hearth
But when she was a potato she didn't
tropic garden
She's spent enough time away from it that the sort of core (haha) personality she has is coming through
But she doesn't know that person anymore
buoyant sapphire
What do you mean, "she doesn't know that person anymore"?
long hearth
"So... How are you doing? Because I'M A POTATO"
tropic garden
She's spent basically her whole existence as a, like, conglomerate of things and being stripped down to One Essential Personality, even if it's The Main One, is scary and foreign
Esp because it's telling her to behave in ways she's not used to
short wyvern
wait a second, The One is from portal?
tropic garden
what
long hearth
The One?
tropic garden
What One
long hearth
Idk :0
short wyvern
I had a dream about a concept called "The One", which is that all human beings are a part of a big conciousness thing and what they all experience collectively is like one big entity
I'm SURE I read that in a game and not made that up
buoyant sapphire
well, hasn't she been a potato for like half the game at that point?
tropic garden
yah
stoic turtle
and she’s fried her circuits a couple of times
tropic garden
There was a thing in the Matrix called The One but whatever you're talking abt isn't a Portal thing
stoic turtle
her potato circuits
short wyvern
oh, just another game to rule out
long hearth
@short wyvern You may be talking about Remember Me but I'm not so sure
mighty ibex
Wasn't that a plot point in no game no life?
stoic turtle
yeah, i agree with you
mighty ibex
The one entity concept
stoic turtle
her “true self” of caroline has been lost to her
especially when she deletes it at the end lol
long hearth
Then probably not
short wyvern
idk why but i think it's stellaris?
tropic garden
I never picked up on her deleting Caroline gdkdfjg I thought she was like exaggerating or being metaphorical i think
mighty ibex
I think it was the movie, one of the characters removes herself from the one entity to find out about humans
stoic turtle
maybe she was, idk, but she definitely pushed that part of her away somewhere
long hearth
@tropic garden Same here. In "Want you gone" she even sang (If I'm correct) "Now little Caroline is in here too" or something like that
tropic garden
Because that whole delete you segment felt like it was aimed at Chell, to me anyways
stoic turtle
true
tropic garden
Like the whole thing is supposed to sound like a breakup song
She's not breaking up with herself.....at least not to that extent :')
stoic turtle
lol yeah
long hearth
I agree
short wyvern
ah thats what i thought
tropic garden
I also do kinda feel like the co-op was supposed to imply that she had some, like. Caring instinct left.
Whether she wanted it or not
She's lonely

I was reading somewhere that there is some kind of thing with the bird at the end, but I played co-op and didn't see that
Maybe I forgot to do something

There's two layers to co-op I'm pretty sure

Fair enough, but warcraft 3 is decades old already
they really have outstanding cutscenes for something so old
worn dome
@fiery fable have you seen them make them?
worn dome
It's pretty amazing. Lots of it is hand drawn/painted. The time and effort they put into them is amazing
fiery fable
you mean Blizzard right?
worn dome
Oh my wotlk had a behind the scenes dvd. It was cool to see. I wonder if it's online
I love behind the scenes stuff though
Yeah blizzard. What I saw was for the wrath of the lichking cinematic
fiery fable
its a bit of a stretch, but my girlfriend's art professor's artist ex girlfriend works for blizzard
specifically on this stuff
worn dome
So not nearly as old as warcraft 3.... But still.
fiery fable
so 4th hand info, but yeah lot of effort there
another interesting one would be Command & Conquer
the old stuff, with the live action cutscenes
i mean, i guess they had the same kind of stuff all the way to the end
but it started off so long ago
worn dome
Haha 4th hand info. That's basically all the info I hear around my work. "I hear from rob that Kevin said Eric told him this"
fiery fable
big bad daddy Kane and his Tiberium agenda
as a gamer that has to be one of the very iconic characters in any game universe
Joseph Kucan as Kane
worn dome
Is that from command and conquer? I haven't played :(
fiery fable
the unfortunate thing is that the one currently available on Origin is a bit hit n miss
sometimes doesnt really work
and if you try to patch it and fix it, it detects the thing as a cheat or pirated copy
which means your games end in 30 sec or something
which is sad coz I wanted to replay Red Alert 2 pretty badly at some point
but have now given up

Am I late to witness the slew of messages that usually follows the event of opening the server to the public?
Not long ago, Red Hook Studios (the Darkest Dungeon guys) opened their Discord to the public and all the channels were booming with the newcomers posting just about anything in the next 48 hours.
This place is eerily quiet.
I absolutely do not take an issue with that (in fact, I think this is great), I just find it odd.

@hallow badge I'm at work :( busy day but I'll probably be chatty while the pace is slow enough to keep up with lol

This is sort of tangentially about HLD, but if you guys like speedruns.... there's a really good HLD run from I think this past AGDQ? I recommend it.
blissful charm
hey idk is this is the right place to ask but is there anyone german here, or at least fluent in it? i need help w deciding formal vs informal
velvet void
I bought the 3 pack posters for HLD from fangamer, those are gonna look super nice

One of the AGDQ HLD speedruns had the developers talking through it, too.
They didn't contribute as much as I would have liked but c'est la vie
velvet void
Replaying the game with the knowledge that Alex based it off his own heart problems was something else.
wanton brook
velvet void
Turning his own ailments into playable art is pretty amazing
serene tulip
aww
now the game is even more sad!
and as someone skirting the edge of having heart problems super relatable
If you're into games where the issues of the author are expressed very well, I suggest The Beginner's Guide and That Dragon Cancer.
well
maybe not if you don't like videogames making you cry
serene tulip
Beginner's guide might be better with the context of Stanley Parable
but I think it could probably standalone pretty well
silver maple
I don’t think Stanley Parable lends beginners guide any help besides being the same author. Beginners guide doesn’t benefit from any other context imo
It is VERY good tho
serene tulip
I don't think playing the stanley parable adds that much to the beginners guide, but knowing about it certainly does.
playing it does add some though
worn dome
So much talking it's hard to keep up lol. Woo!
What's the proper channel to ask supergiant employees stuff?
hallow badge
I imagine #supergiant-games would be appropriate
But if the nature of your question is more in line with other channel of the server, I suppose it wouldn't be wrong to tag them in there.
faint panther
If it's a problem with a game, probably tech support, if it's lore questions and stuff regarding certain game - a game channel, if something else - supergiant definitely... Could tag people too
worn dome
@hallow badgesounds good! I've been asking fairly randomly, but now I have a more serious question
@faint panther basically I found out where I work has a print shop, so I want to see if they will sell me prints that aren't work related. If so I want to see if there is a way to either have or but a larger digital image of some of the artwork to make a SUPER GIANT poster :P get it? Wow I'm so funny
I love the prints I've gotten, but I just wish they were larger like some other gaming posters I have
But no need to ask yet really until I know if I can even get them made
hallow badge
So you basically want to license some art to use in print. This kind of business proposition is perhaps best settled over email.
tardy anchor
i feel like if you ask a company "can i print your merch myself" they, uh, arent going to be too cool with that
i mean, youre welcome to ask
faint panther
Oooh, interesting 👀 Prints are nice, to brighten up the mood in the room.
But yeah, that's a matter you gotta talk over definitely
worn dome
@hallow badge oh no no. Personal use only
@tardy anchor I'd be happy to pay for a one off print if they want to do it :P I assume they don't have the right partners for that though, I think all the prints are fairly small
tardy anchor
what print were you thinking of and like..............how big are you talking
worn dome
@tardy anchor I'm not sure. The main one is the red from transistor art poster.... Forgot the name, I can look it up later. The print I bought from the store I think is about two feet by one foot, and I'd prefer something like 5 feet by three feet.... However it scales properly
I'd need to measure my other posters if you're curious for exact size
tardy anchor
WHOA. omg thats. very big
anyway yeah. idk the rules and stuff on that, ask an sgg person!
worn dome
Haha is it that big? Maybe I'm terrible at guesstimating. It is about double if not more of the Red poster size-wise
tardy anchor
thats really really big, yeah
hallow badge
I can see how you could probably strike a deal with them by printing a small batch of those huge posters, so you can keep one for yourself, and mail them the rest to SGG for them to sell from their store as a limited edition. Their benefit is the profit from the sales, yours is the poster you wanted.
serene tulip
@worn dome most standard posters are 24x36"
From already-existing images you can get a 30ppi 24x36 poster
which isn't that great

The other reason is that with such a larger server, if people swap nicknames all the time it gets hard to keep track of whos who

thats something
I think for me fois gras with also snails.
mostly because it was the combination of both?

@short wyvern yeah I played HLD! I enjoyed the combat and the aesthetics but the story didn't really resonate with me
the "story"
i was really sad when guardian died tho :/ wore their cape for the rest of the game
short wyvern
I understand that, it's not for everyone
I know you write a lot so you probably like a lot of details? But there aren't a lot
tropic garden
I mean, more than details necessarily I look for things that emotionally resonate with me
I'm always down for a lot of lore, but lore with no heart is just....homework tbh
I appreciated the atmosphere and ambience and everything but like it just didn't do it on its own
worn dome
@serene tulip you need to live that upper-middle class life, upper-class is just too crazy, upper-middle? Juuuuust right
oh speaking of steak tartare.....the supergiant guys REALLY need to hit up epic
I'll even take them out to dinner there if I'm in town again
it was SO good, served with these cheese/wafer/cracker things and a raw quail egg on top
chilly briar
HLD was that 👌
worn dome
@left mica I bet you're asleep, but the only SGG employee online 😛 seriously https://goo.gl/maps/FdVEJPWCaf42 this place in SF ended up being a highlight....but I doubt most people are willing to try a plate of raw meat with a raw quail egg on top heh, I'd be willing to take a few SGG people out to dinner there if I ever end up in town again (Family is in San Jose, so I visit the area, but rarely make it up to SF sadly). I've also heard waterbar next door is great, but it was fully booked when we went on a whim, and ended up in epic due to waterbar being full. If you have a chance to try waterbar though I'd love to know how it is!
@chilly briar I really want to finish that. I feel like I got about half way in and then got stuck....is HLD worth trying up again? I had a blast until the point I got stuck
worn dome
true that
did you ever get stuck?
I binged it on launch for about two weeks, so it's been AGES. I feel like I got a lot of upgrades and weapons, but eventually got stuck....
serene tulip
I mean, It took me a couple dozen tries to beat the gorram bird boss
worn dome
maybe I should just play it again, nothing but good memories looking back
have you tried keyboard and mouse vs controller? I wasn't sure which to use
serene tulip
I used controller, personally
worn dome
@kindred crest no not stuck like couldn't beat something, stuck as in couldn't find where to go next
serene tulip
But I used KB and mouse to cheese the dash room
serene tulip
oh, no, that wasn't ever much of an issue, IIRC
worn dome
and thinking back I can't for the life of me remember how/where/why/what got me stuck and lost
so I'm really tempted to start it from the start again

I'm glad! i know several people who were really impacted by the story
serene tulip
I was more impacted after learning about the heart thing
tropic garden
it's kinda like with me and Pyre, didn't really affect me that much but I can see how a lot of people would be moved by it
short wyvern
Oh yeah, definitly @serene tulip
tropic garden

I have screenshots of all dead bosses
serene tulip

slow lark
I did keyboard/mouse the whole way throguh and tbh I prefer those mechanics jumps in out of nowhere for HLD convo then jumps out again
short wyvern
Good Nightwings @serene tulip ♥
@slow lark i feel like HLD didn't really let me button mash? like when i tried that i would die, so i had to actually learn the mechanics
short wyvern
@worn dome that's really cool, i'm not religious at all myself but still i could appreciate the country, i think you'll have fun ^^
worn dome
oh I keep forgetting to be in off-topic 😦 supergiant channel is too close to off-topic sometimes haha
oh she's not religious either, just the racial part 😛
I'm only 1% or so Jewish, so I don't think I qualify for Birthright 😦 I might just pay for my own trip at the same time she doesn birthright though
short wyvern
i would love to meet you both 😃 israel is really small so the chance of it happening is pretty big
plus you'll probably visit the dead sea and i live very close by

desert swallow

short wyvern
wait really
desert swallow
You could try leaving and coming back? Maybe name would reset
velvet hawk
Did this server ever allow nickname changes?
faint panther
It shouldn’t have, but if it had allowed it for a bit when it was just created, later it was prohibited anyway because it could flood the audit log, sadly...
Good morning everyone
short wyvern

tardy anchor

buoyant sapphire
kAM NO
short wyvern
Ven i will never understand how do you provide so much content a.k.a writing and making memes. so much goodness.
tardy anchor
congrations you d'n-it
buoyant sapphire
oh my god no
tropic garden
hey kam which meme should i post, the "ri'neref wants everyone to have kids with ahrotahntee" meme, or another one
buoyant sapphire
ahahahahhhh i wish
tardy anchor

tropic garden
THERE ARE NO BAD WORDS IN IT
buoyant sapphire
working with cyan would be a DREAM
buoyant sapphire
obduction is hard though
tropic garden
how about the distinguished/functional/disaster chart
buoyant sapphire
and I'm hyped for firmament
tardy anchor
haha tbh i.....like riven as is but i think its neat theyre doing it!!!
tropic garden
nota bene that i haven't played myst 3 or 4 but i think we decided to leave good old whatsisface out
buoyant sapphire
I'd play riven but
tropic garden
oh boy
buoyant sapphire
oh and maybe uru
tropic garden
there's a few Deep Lore characters in here but
buoyant sapphire
i refuse to play any of the wanna-be myst continuations especially myst 5
(aka end of ages)
tardy anchor
noooooooo eoa was amazing
tardy anchor
where are u up to?
buoyant sapphire
i'm still in hunrath SNRK
tardy anchor
yES
buoyant sapphire
...I don't get it
tardy anchor
fhgfjgkj bc everyone blames her for the fall when she did like...nothing
buoyant sapphire
I'm still fairly new to the Myst universe
tardy anchor
AAAAAAAAAAA
buoyant sapphire
Yeah no, I've only played realMyst masterpiece
being German means I'll probably have a hard time getting the novels
tardy anchor
:(((( aww
buoyant sapphire
but I find it weird that there's books about books
tropic garden
hey kam remember that time we found weird pictures in the riven assets and you made brushes out of them
buoyant sapphire
but yes, I love myst so far and its music and aaaaaaa
tardy anchor
here take this katran...............OH before u say her actress doesnt look like this shes described v diff in novels
buoyant sapphire
am I the only one who absolutely does not get the d'ni numerals though???
tardy anchor
no problem tbh, math is hard, i barely get them myself
buoyant sapphire
which is weird because I even managed to untangle the numbers in friggin obduction
tardy anchor
OH THOSE I CANT DO AT ALL
tropic garden
i needed a hint
but now i actually understand all base-n counting systems
binary included
so, uh
thanks riven?
buoyant sapphire
the villein number system is actually fairly easy to understand
conceptually I mean
still can't type them for sh- stuff
tropic garden
http://venhediss.tumblr.com/post/173077440516/dneamed-clams
hey this post is really funny because it's basically the entirety of myst and riven
short wyvern
i have no idea what im seeing
tropic garden
realmyst hours
buoyant sapphire
atrus is really nice okay ;;
tardy anchor
he issss
tropic garden
atrus is. doing his best.
tardy anchor
hes not doing a good job but at least hes a good guy
tropic garden
his best is questionable.
"well it sure was fun having these kids in concept, now let's leave them with a babysitter for ten whole years and never check back"
tardy anchor
he is doing his best. but it is not the situation's best.
tropic garden
"what do you mean they turned out badly"
for a guy raised in a shallow crack in the desert ground, he's pretty dang functional
but uhhh
mm. yeah.
buoyant sapphire
yeah sorry for not getting half of this lore talk ;; I've only played myst
tropic garden
IT'S FINE WE'RE JUST EXCITED...
wait so have you played riven then?
no
have you like seen an lp or something?
buoyant sapphire
for maybe 30 seconds before I got lost, intimidated, scared and then quit
tropic garden
that's. totally fair.
tropic garden
i mean i know my opinion
tardy anchor
ghkjgkjgkj me too
buoyant sapphire
...whoops
tardy anchor
wait what
buoyant sapphire
Probably caught by some profanity filter set up by Dyno?
tardy anchor
hkjhgkjlghjk oh read it in mods
tardy anchor
i love achenar tbh.........i love how rand miller played him
short wyvern
the mystical mods
tropic garden
MYSTical
buoyant sapphire
I'm trying to hold back by the way, but I do tend to have a foul mouth at times
tardy anchor
yeah you have to hold back
buoyant sapphire
also the foil badge for obduction is called mystified so uh, cyan knows
tropic garden
tardy anchor
gfhjfjfhjfhjfhj
tropic garden
(It's Never Sunny in D'ni theme music plays gently in the background)
buoyant sapphire
here's the point where I nerd out and remind you all that technically it's spelled d'nee
tropic garden
....................is profanity still profanity if i write it in another language
tardy anchor
yes 😦
buoyant sapphire
no, it is -- d'ni is anglicized
short wyvern
yes
tropic garden
damn
tardy anchor
oh?
tropic garden
yeah they removed the "ee" a lot because it looks awk
buoyant sapphire
I think it was sifting through a forum conversation
tardy anchor
i mean myst credits say dunny dont they lol
tropic garden
yeah but that's from dunny huts
tropic garden
gdkjhgdjfg
tropic garden
hey arri did you kno robyn refused to work on book of ti'ana because he was mad that his brother took his OCs
tardy anchor
novel 2
tropic garden
backstory
tardy anchor
abt the fall
tropic garden
the point is
rand miller stole robyn miller's OCs and robyn was pissed
and i have never heard of a more, like, nerdy sibling thing to do than that tbqh
tardy anchor
mom said its my turn to write the veovis
buoyant sapphire
tropic garden
fall lore is so much
there's a lot of it lurking in uru
btw if you wanna play uru and need puzzle help kam and i can log on and hold a glowing capsule or two for you
buoyant sapphire
I was going to play uru a while ago actually
tardy anchor
THE funniest miller sibling thing was robyn quote tweeting some interview rand did abt 'yeah it wasnt luck we were successful because we worked hard' with something like 'nuh uh it was absolutely luck'
oh yeah sure!! explorers!!
buoyant sapphire
but uh, for now I have to bash my head against this goddamn laser minecart thing
tropic garden
good luck lol
buoyant sapphire
laser... minecart... buggy... thing.
tardy anchor
HAHAAAA
buoyant sapphire
i'm supposed to head into the tower but I can't get in ;_;
tardy anchor
turn off the sound put on ur own radio get jammin' its your car now
buoyant sapphire
because someone barricaded the doors from the inside
tardy anchor
HUH, C. W.,
buoyant sapphire
...nah he's still in his vault
and also snapped twice at me for trying to ask for advice
tardy anchor
i love that if u press the doorbell enough he disables it till u finish his task
tropic garden
the only non-deep-lore myst memes i have are from riven
buoyant sapphire
I don't actually like memes
tardy anchor
really is my life philosophy....................ring ppl's bells till they are forced to react
tropic garden
OH
ok
no more d'memes
tardy anchor
thats how i got modded too i went up to greg's house and went ding dong ding dong ding dong until he added me
short wyvern
you don't like memes in general?
buoyant sapphire
modern memes, no
tardy anchor
wait......old memes are ok?
buoyant sapphire
they're often just some... image without any sort of context or even semblance of humor
short wyvern
do you mean like deep fried memes and stuff like that?
tardy anchor
ohhhhh no vens talking actual jokes lol
buoyant sapphire
yeah but like, actual memes I mean
buoyant sapphire
...nope don't get it
tardy anchor
;o;
short wyvern
what would you consider a good meme?
buoyant sapphire
no meme?
tardy anchor
:C
buoyant sapphire
it's just, their humor's kind of lost on me because there IS no humor
take for example, the fad about the 🅱 emoji
short wyvern
im trying to understand if you're talking about image macros or the general idea of memes
tardy anchor
ohhhh
buoyant sapphire
kind of both
tropic garden
i mean a lot of it is referential humor
tardy anchor
oh well not for everyone i guess
tropic garden
you see something and it's kinda funny but not that funny
then you like, slap it on something else that it fits
tardy anchor
yeah!
short wyvern
oh, i get it now
tropic garden
like that one was, what, an Onion headline?
and at a certain point the repetition is itself what's funny
buoyant sapphire
that does not explain how the letter b for example is related to absolutely anything at all. or friggin waluigi. just... what
short wyvern
yeah the 🅱 thing is very weird
tropic garden
it's just a big in-joke
short wyvern
and the markiplier-farquad-E thing
tardy anchor
that one was an onion headline that fit the situation
short wyvern
although i loved it lol
buoyant sapphire
I've been driving this minecart around this circle for 25 minutes and got nowhere
tropic garden
i don't really get the 🅱 thing either but it looks funny
tardy anchor
yeah youll be doing that
tropic garden
and when you try to pronounce words with the random 🅱 in them it sounds funny
tardy anchor
YEAH thasts why its good
buoyant sapphire
then why does it have to be an emoji? or a lowercase, bold, italic b branded over 75% of an image?
short wyvern
i think it's the deep friend thing. like you ruin the image, you ruin the letter with so many additions
tardy anchor
i lov....this new "this is so sad x play despacito" meme bc
-sticking the word despacito in randomly is funnier than the song itself is good
-the like absolute sarcasm is beautiful
tropic garden
oh no it's memeology time
tardy anchor
deep friend
velvet hawk
I... didn't even know the 🅱 thing was a thing? I certainly don't understand that one
short wyvern
OH NO
tardy anchor
🅱oneless pizza
short wyvern
I didnt see that
tardy anchor
hfhjfkhgfkj
buoyant sapphire
isn't every pizza boneless?
I wouldn't want bones on mine, that sounds like a health hazard
tropic garden
the idea of there being a pizza with bones is tbh what's funny
like
what is a bone-in pizza
faint panther
Cheese crust is liquid bone inside the crust
short wyvern
((who remembers 🅱oneless 🅱ariq))
tropic garden
that's horrifying elz
tardy anchor
((STAWA...:HEART:))
tropic garden
🅱illion 🅱one 🅱ariq
faint panther
Thanks! Also I remember that
short wyvern
oh our halloween nicknames............
buoyant sapphire
the minecart is now moving on its own and repeatedly moving through the cell walls
buoyant sapphire
...fixed it
tardy anchor
ok good
buoyant sapphire
but either way this game is so much harder than myst ugh
tardy anchor
awwww
buoyant sapphire
yeah, myst at least had some sort of plot goal
tardy anchor
?
buoyant sapphire
"find the pages, save the people"
obduction's like "you got stolen by a seed, now find some tree and connect its roots????"
tardy anchor
just cause cw's a grump who doesnt tell u much doesnt mean theres not a plot to find!
keep on keepin on
i dont like that theres not as much personal involvement as there is in myst, thats def true
but its not aimless
buoyant sapphire
there's nothing to keep on because I don't know how to get into that stupid tower in the first place so i can't connect the damn roots so I can't UGH
tardy anchor
the goal is more large-scale and i preferred myst's 'this is a very small personal thing' yeah
AWWW
go put down the game for a bit..itll come to you
buoyant sapphire
i've already sunken four hours into this damn thing and that was before I even had it
(steam family share, yay)
short wyvern
family share is the best
buoyant sapphire
then my friend gifted it to me and now I feel obligated to beat it lest I disappoint my friend
just like the bloody WITNESS
if there's one game in the entire industry that I hate with a burning passion, it's The Witness
buoyant sapphire
okay, just going to speak a word of caution here, if you let me go over why I hate the witness, my wording may end up a little less hospitable than most times because I'm very passionate about what I feel
i'll try to keep it... acceptable for here
tardy anchor
you will have to haha
look at your message before you send it. observe the words. come on
buoyant sapphire
that's like telling someone to listen to what they say before they say it
tardy anchor
no because you dont get to proofread yr speach
buoyant sapphire
my s🍑?
tardy anchor
you have the MAGIC of a text box before you. if you know youre going to curse, proofread
your s🍑!!
buoyant sapphire
...okay uh, anyway.
there's several reasons why I hate the witness as much as I do.
First and foremost, I plain don't get the puzzle mechanics. Or rather, one of the main mechanics.
Most of The Witness' tile puzzles play with the mechanic of having multiple colors, and having to seperate them based on color.
That's all fine and dandy, but you're only allowed one stroke, AND the same line you use to seperate also has to reach a goal position.
Not to mention your line's not allowed to intersect itself either.
On top of that, your rewards for solving the puzzles... is more puzzles.
Each puzzle you solve unlocks another puzzle that unlocks another puzzle that unlocks another puzzle that may unlock a door in the environment which hides a chest with a puzzle for a lock.
tardy anchor
ohhhhhhhhhh ok
buoyant sapphire
There's no story at all.
tardy anchor
yeah, i was worried about that
