  Yup, I don’t even dislike Dead Space 3, but I would rank Callisto Protocol far, far, below that game. I finished the entire game and felt like I had simply wasted a colossal amount of time. The story was abysmal, the world building was weak, the gameplay was repetitive sidestep nonsense. I literally see no reason to ever recommend that game to anyone.

  What’s wrong Glen? I thought you said this game was your baby, exactly how you envisioned Dead Space was supposed to be, if you had completely creative control?

  Turns out maybe the problem was you, Glen. Because that DDR-inspired wet napkin of a game that was Callisto Protocol, had zero of the appeal that draws people to Dead Space. The DLC was something you should creatively be absolutely ashamed of and made it pretty much impossible to actually continue the story.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Neurodivergents of Lemmy. Do you think of yourself as (A) Cursed by fate, permanently damaged and suffering OR (B) Gifted by fate with a nonstandard package of strengths and weaknesses?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m mildly autistic, to the point I do have to put on a “face” and try to act “normal” in social situations. I am generally quite sociable and outgoing, so I don’t feel it’s held me back. It’s just different.

  Both socially and through work I interact with a diverse range of people, and I don’t think I am any more different than a British person is from an Italian. I’ve taken the mindset that if someone has a problem with that difference, it’s merely an excuse for their bigotry that would’ve surfaced for a different reason either way.

  On the flip side, it’s been incredibly helpful in my career. I have an affinity for processes and an analytical brain, as well as the ability to disconnect from any discussion emotionally. I have always felt that this stems from my autism and it’s allowed me to have business discussions about difficult topics while leaving Ego at the proverbial door.

  So I would say that for me in particular, it’s been a positive. Someone having a problem with me being different is just that; their problem, not mine.

  Yup. Okay-ish solo, but amazing with a friend or two.

  If you’re in PC, there’s a few configuration file tweaks you can do to make enemies less spong-y. Enemies gain 20HP per level in this game, and thus get very tanky, very fast. This doesn’t change per difficulty. The damage scaling modifier does, but not enough to counter this.

  I’ve set this to 5HP and increased how much damage I take as well. Feels much better that way, in my opinion. Legendary enemies still have more health, but not to an insane degree.

  Do you want me to share the settings?
