You can buy repair hammers from the blacksmith to repair equipment on the go. It’s cheaper to buy repair hammers and fix them yourself than let the blacksmith do it, too
The Shivering Isles is a ton of fun. I didn’t know what to expect in an Oblivion DLC (I barely played the original game) but I was pleasantly surprised by how weird it is. Like you said, it’s an Alice in Wonderland scenario with bizarre quests and a crazy king. Sheogorath’s voice acting is legendary.
By the way you should repair your armor :P
But it turns out they fake their deaths and the camera pans to a small town in mexico: “15 years later…” where you play as their child and discover they’re both alive and well, but bored with their lives. They reminisce on the good old days of adventure before reading the mail and discovering a potential bank to rob. “One last heist, eh?” one says to the other before both of them smile and the screen cuts to black.
Hire fans, or something
Apparently there is a lot more info about the game on the official site: https://www.rockstargames.com/VI
It’s not loading at the moment but it contains some screenshots, character info, and confirms certain locations that will appear.
The trailer looked gorgeous, possibly the most photorealistic game we’ve seen yet. I know it was probably recorded on a PS5 Pro, but the fact that it looks this good on console is wild. Still lame that it won’t release on PC at release.
The opposite used to happen way more back in the day. People would go into /r/rust and talk about the game.

This note was added over 10 years ago… Some things never change.
Oh man, king’s quest. Those games were literally impossible without a guide and you needed to go to areas in very specific steps to not softlock the game.
That’s my experience with 99% of old school point and click games. At some point in every one it devolved into me running in circles and trying every item on every object.
Please god not the distrochooser site, when someone asks you where to install Linux you send them anything but that.
I would love a 3D re-imagining, as long as they don’t butcher the story and introduce multiverse timetravel ghosts. Sigh.
You won’t be able to play with 2 players in the final game either, they’ve already said as much when they first announced it.
Last I’ve heard they said they were looking into it but haven’t confirmed anything. They also mentioned they were surprised so many people wanted a 2 player mode which is… Surprising.
This could be great, but I’ll wait around for reviews. I’d be very excited about this if it weren’t for Fromsoft’s bad experience with online play. In the beta you couldn’t play with 2 players and if someone disconnected there apparently wasn’t a way to reconnect, and the netcode could be janky. Really hope they fixed those issues before release.
No, they confirmed it was releasing 2025. That’s it.
An enormous component of anything is advertising, I don’t see your point.
Well, that settles it. $80 games is going to be the new standard and Sony will quickly trail along. Oh well, nothing much has changed for patient gamers.
I have found that adept gets more balanced as you level up, I’m level 8 right now and I’ve had a few challenging fights.
A little over level 10 is where the game gets most difficult, then it quickly gets easier again. Once you have a powerful restoration spell you’re almost unkillable on adept.
Correction: It is to make money, but the goal is to get people to subscribe now then jack up the prices once people start relying on it.
I finished the base game earlier today, doing the shivering isles now. It’s a great remaster, but it definitely needs a few updates. Performance and bugs aside, the balance of the game is all over the place and the difficulty options are broken. Expert is way too hard, adept is too easy. Luckily, modders already fixed a lot of things.
I highly recommend modding your game to improve a few things:
Ultimate Engine Tweaks improves performance at zero cost to graphics. It also helped significantly with stutters.
Difficulty Slider Fixed makes the difference between difficulties less drastic
More Damage makes everything (including enemies) deal more damage. A must have imo because Bethesda’s school of spongy enemies is really outdated game design. 2x more damage on everything makes combat deadlier and more exciting.
P.S. there’s an “unofficial oblivion remastered patch mod” that claims to fix thousands of bugs, but in reality it makes the game more unstable and has its own issues. Don’t use it yet.
House Flipper 2 is great. I wish missions were less linear, but it’s probably the best “home designer” game out there.
Fe. It’s a small game by a small studio but was published by EA of all people.
Also, Child of Light by Ubisoft.
