After finishing Syberia 3, I’ve moved on to The World Before. It’s so much better! It could do with more puzzles, but the Syberia atmosphere is back. The story also seems better so far, and the graphics are gorgeous. Controls are also hugely better.

Just chiming in that I’ve seen the same, and am also using voyager on iPhone.

Congratulations and thank you for doing this. Thanks to your work I found a new home after .ee went down. And I joined just a few days before your birthday apparently :-)

Happy birthday!

Haha I remember saying this once already, but also didn’t remember who asked last time :-D

No mods, but enhanced edition.

At some point in BG1 I noticed my party was all women, and I decided to make that part of my character’s personality: she will work with men too but given the choice prefers adventuring with women. So now in BG2 she’s doing that too. I have Jaheira, Hexxat, Mazzy, Neera, and Aerie. Main character is a sorcerer.

In BG1 I also said no lawful companions, and no evil, but that’s not possible now while staying all female.

It’s great - I love both cRPGs and the Forgotten Realms (ever since the days of Eye of the Beholder and the gold box series). But it’s also a bit too much sometimes. You’ll be doing a quest, and you’re approached by an NPC starting a different quest while party members are nagging to do theirs first and as you’re standing there trying to decide what to do first, a group attacks you for yet another quest.

I’m exaggerating a bit, but I really had a moment where two events happened at the same time, while I was on another quest.

Next to Baldur’s Gate 2 and Icewind Dale, which will probably take several more months at least, I’ve also been playing through the Syberia series. I’m now on Syberia 3, and I must admit it’s frustrating at times. The controls are awful. As an example: I literally had to frantically rotate the mouse for several minutes to rotate a crank ever so slowly.

It’s a shame because the world of Syberia is one with real character, and even though that’s less apparent than in the previous games, it’s still there.

I have good hope that the next game, Syberia: The World Before, will be better again.

Thank you for the transparency!

I hope this will be fixed quickly. While people from hexbear often annoy me - that is, if I even understand what they’re trying to say - I love that .zip only defederates very rarely. It’s why I came here after lemm.ee went down.

Lemmy.zip: come for the federation policy, stay for the transparent communication.
