  • Pathologic 2 is really, really hard. That's the point. But does that mean the game is GOOD? Is it worth your money? Well. You're just going to have to watch the video to figure that one out for yourself.

    Pathologic used to be my favourite game that brought me into game design. Truly a masterpiece.

    Nice review! This game is so dense it was nice to see it from the perspective of your playthrough.

    It’s not in Eastern Europe. It’s in Central Asia

    I just found this channel and the Pathologic games have been a special interest of mine for over a year now! Very excited to see more people play it. :)

      Also, another game I’d suggest to you is “The Path” by Tale of Tales. I think it might fit the vibe of the other things you’ve covered! :D

      The Path is a great game. Might do a video on it actually. I feel like most people have forgotten it

    loved the video! thank you for giving the time to talk about pathologic :)
    I think I'm the only one that thinks the OST is god-tier and thus excuses any iffy background character dialogue. Dark tribal/ambient is one of my favorite genres lol
    RE around 15:00: it's actually very easy to know which districts will get infected next. it branches out from ground 0 in a very specific pattern + the "quests" you do (or dont do) affect it.
    (also, maybe, I think, in regards to the bridge square, the actions of the other healers affect it as well)
    also, Daniil's/the Bachelor's route is in progress! I don't know how long it will be until it's complete and translated, but we ARE getting it.

    Was watching this cause I get motion sickness in first person POV. But the more I keep hearing about this game the more I'm tempted to play it (either find someone to play it with me or see if there's medicine I could take). But loved hearing your review on this game. Also glad the algorithm recommend you to me loving your videos

    • @ConversingGames

      The game is great. I believe there's medicine for sea sickness that would help?
      Thank you for the kind words

    This means that Artemy’s dad could only infect himself if - he didn’t have the connection with the Earth or wasn’t one of the Kin. That is the only way he could be patient zero.

    • @ConversingGames
      @ConversingGames  2 года назад +2

      From memory. It's stated somewhere that Isidor (Artemy's father) went out of town and dug a hole. Thus violating one of the Kin's rules and making himself no longer connected to the earth. Hence why he could get infected.

    Really enjoyed this review. Any idea what the next one will be?
    If you've never tried it, why not give System Shock Enhanced a go? I played it for the first time in 2020 and really enjoyed it.

    • @ConversingGames
      @ConversingGames  2 года назад +3

      Thank you! I've got some videos in the works but the next one should be on a certain Immersive Sim built on the Source engine.
      System Shock Enhanced sounds interesting. I love System Shock 2 but I've never played the original, so I'll give it a go. Thanks for the suggestion!

    Sadly because of lack of sales the team has announced that they'll discontinue pathologic 2,
    I'd love to see the other character perspectives but at least we got a 1/3 of the story.

      I wonder where you saw this "announcement" because recently they have given an interview that confirms they are working on the Bachelor currently and there has been progress.

    • @Trone2
      @Trone2 2 года назад +2

      @@TobiOnar Yeah so i posted a link before which was an interview about the situation of sales and what they plan to do in the future but i didn't know Conversing Games restricted his comments, so you're just going to haft to take my word for it. It's for the better though.
      I am aware of every future updates for Icepick Lodge so don't worry about me.

      @@TobiOnar Tell you what i could do, i'll copy past just the key points bellow of what's said. Keep in mind this was back in Aug 23rd 2019 and i have seen the update on Twitter where they getting back to it but this is just so you know i'm not making it up:
      About low sales and their future
      Yes it is. And it will affect the further development in the most difficult way. Most of the team will disperse, the studio will again be reduced to a few basic people - exactly the same thing will happen after the failure of Eureka!
      I think that, as in that situation, a small mobile game will save us. Only after that we will be able to take on the promised scenarios of the Bachelor and the Changeling - the studio simply will not have the technical ability to make them without money and people.
      It’s also clear to me that by the time we get down to them, the industry will change.
      About other campaigns and console release
      Idont know. This is not possible to plan. It all depends on the composition of the studio and how we manage the last money (it’s clear that there will be less and less income from Haruspex) -that is, will we make the right bet.
      I suppose that with this last money we will make a very small mobile project, and with the money that he will earn, we will complete the scenarios of the Bachelor with the Changeling - and we will do each in a new genre. Obviously, there are few who want to spend 20 hours again on a mediocre Survival for the sake of new plot twists.
      Director and main writer about what's next
      The team is likely to be reduced to 4-5 people. We earn money to fulfill our obligations under the Kickstarter. Personally, I am going to spend a lot of time studying. Obviously, I need to somehow correct my picture of the world.
