Techland started a daily teaser video adding 1 new word each day (yesterday "are", today "you") that only shows under UV light in-game. Leading to a possible reveal message about release date(??)

First time hearing their music

I didn't listen to much metalcore back in the day (early 2000s) and my main go-to for the genre was "Killswitch Engage" (because of Drop C tuning, twin guitar harmonies, powerful vocalist).

With the Tokyo Olympics right around the corner, I made a video showcasing a full playthrough of Harran Olympics various sports activities to get everyone in the mood for the summer games.

This is 30 minutes of continuous, unedited raw gameplay where I finish the 13 sports events in the game on the first try.

Hope you enjoy it, and if you haven't played the map yet, give it a try

My bet is that they're gonna take the old game areas and connect them seamlessly, real open world style, with the space in between leaving room for new original content. That would probably save some time on development, without having to imagine everything from scratch, and also be familiar to old time fans.

I think one thing fans want is an endless aspect to the game, where you have the factions battling each other, mutants that respawn and randomly generated quests to take you across the world. I've seen a few mods for the old games that do exactly that. But they really need to capture the feeling of the old Zone and get the systems to work together.

Honestly, if they just take the areas from stalker original game + clear sky + call of Pripyat, and remake them in one seamless open world in UE4 (or upcoming 5) with new storyline/quests, I'd be happy.

Given that they released Hellraid as a small DLC for Dying Light, and the full game has been on hold since 2014, I don't believe it will be released.

The DLC did not sit very well with players either (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1300710/Dying_Light__Hellraid/ mostly negative user reviews)

Possible paths to revive the game (my opinion): either port it to the new C-Engine (built for Dying Light 2) and continue development after the release of DL2, or sell the IP to a studio that will actively work on it.

The story of Bruce Lee's teacher and mentor, Ip Kai-Man

Ip Man 1 (2008) and Ip Man 2 (2010) (still 3 and 4 to watch next week)

Seems Techland wants to address the various articles pointing to the game being in development hell after 2 years of total silence.

After that, I ordered my own blank tapes and a recorder and started making my own tapes. And I must say, it's extremely fun! Designing my own labels is cool too!

Narrating my thoughts between songs is something I've always wanted to do anyways!

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to go record some more!

Be ready for this to happen, a lot?

Pro tip: have a pencil nearby for such emergency

Aftermath of a wild party, 1851, colorized

Going for a pacifist approach I guess?

Have it (and Death of the Outsider too) on my wishlist, hopefully to play them later this year.

Report: Techland Is Bleeding Talent Due To Autocratic Management, Bad Feedback, And Lack Of Direction

The development of Dying Light 2 has been 'total chaos,' according to report

Watched a hidden gem that was unfortunately overshadowed by the Matrix when it was out. It released back in April 1999, and 2 months later, The Matrix released and took away all the attention since they tackle a similar theme of computer simulation/virtual world/characters.

I admit that I haven't heard about it until recently when someone recommended it, and I'm glad that I watched it. It doesn't have over the top CGI like the matrix but the story is captivating, the alternation between LA in 1999 and 1937 was a nice touch, and having a simulation within a simulation (like Inception) was a cool plot twist for a 1999 movie.

If you like the theme in the matrix, watch this one. Recommended

Whistler's Mother

Seeing him at the end, cruising in the convertible on Sunset Blvd, flipping everyone off was priceless

Do yourself a favor and watch the 2nd movie from 2007 if you haven't done so yet; it is slightly less hilarious than the first one but it's Bean after all (the scene where he inadvertently gets onto a movie set about WWII and does his usual shenanigans is well worth it)
