I noticed but when its almost all RPGs and Puzzle games u gotta figure their popularity owes at least a bit of debt to a sudden societal infusion of screen time.
i know this is a joke post but i’ve had pathologic for a long time and keep meaning to play it. i know 2 is essentially a remake, should i stick with the original?
same deal, i’ve wanted to play shadow hearts 2 forever. will my experience be better if i start with 1?
I think part of felix’s bit is that he authentically believes these games constitute the best of the century thus far. 2 is not simply a remake. It’s a retelling with some stark differences.
I started with covenant and eventually went back, but not til years later. I don’t think my experience would have been better if I played the first one, the second one being really over the top in humor is what drew me in and the first is a little more serious. so depends on what you want out of it
I was just thinking about how “games since year 2000” actually encompasses fully half the history of consumer-available videogames. Insane to think what happened with games from 1975-2000 and what happened from 2000-2025…
Pathologic 1 contains 3 playable characters, though 2 of them are somewhat incomplete. Pathologic 2 is a remake/retelling that fleshes out one of those partially incomplete characters (the Haruspex)
It should be noted the director/writer of the Pathologic games is an abusive sociopath who preys on teenage girls and literally kidnapped his ex wife’s kid and hospitalized her father, which kinda taints the games for me (Pathologic 3 is thankfully being developed without his involvement because the people at Ice Pick Lodge also hated his constant abuse)
