what the gently caress is in the aviary?
blood pool in the abattoir, polyhedron is piercing the ground, forgotten pagan beliefs, the relationship between earth and flesh: cool. all on the table.
what the gently caress is in the aviary? somebody spoil me, please, I have zero desire to go through the game again.

The aviary is where the kin that work the abbatoir live. It's not too weird as far as pathologic buildings go. You enter it several times in artemiy's campaign, and it is extremely loving infected

hi how are you

pathologic is weird because it being a horrible, ugly miserable, poorly-translated slog is what makes it work. You start dreading the game from the minute you think about playing it and it all builds from there. basically a bunch of insane russians accidentally made some kind of outsider art instead of a video game and it only works because it doesn't really function as a game. I'm worried they ll get the remake to work properly and it'll lose the parts that make it tick

I've never played or heard much of pathologic but I got this vibe from stalker. The dodgy slavic code just worked so well for the setting

stalker is pretty good though

Undertale is good despite it being a homestuck targeted precisely at the feels of shut ins and depressives. There isnt gonna be much of a legacy after the next indie guy accidentally shits out a golden egg, aside from some skeleton smut

Listen to the music instead. I highly recommend it. That's probably over half of the appeal of the game right there.

Undertale was a problem before it was released because the furries latched onto "Goatmom" and deluged the internet with porn, but admittedly pedos did the same with Splatoon so...

It was funny because my goon BF raved about how great it was, goons were loving it! SHOULD HAVE KNOWN IT WAS poo poo.

Anyways LISA is leagues better, a thousand times over. But I am the type that enjoys games like Deadly Premonition and D4.

god dammit why are we talking about videogames again in GBS :colbert:

pretty much. of all the reasons I've heard people say they dislike the game, the OST has never been one of them, and for good reason.

i'm seconding all these tracks by the way, along with Power of NEO, Save the World, Megalovania, and Hopes and Dreams

i still really can't believe that the entire OST was made by just Toby

This is my least favorite part of Pathologic. There's a ton of parts where it's almost completely impossible to progress without looking at a guide, because the game is so opaque and bad about telling you what to do next. I think the devs intended you to play through it multiple times like Dead Rising, figuring more and more out each time, but considering a full playthrough of the game is like thirty hours long hahahaha gently caress that.
