I think I’ll be finally picking up Project Wingman and Black Mesa in this sale.

What’s on your list?

    I loved this game too but I was never able to finish it. The game kept getting incrementally slower as I progressed like it was having trouble processing everything. Happened on both my Switch and Xbox Series X. Hopefully the PC version is better.

      That still happened on PC, or on my OG steam deck at least, but it was somewhat remedied by some commands to adjust settings. Things like turning off visible bots, background settings, UI elements. That leaves most of the processing just being you walking around/gathering and whatever background machinery you have going, vs all of everything.

      I imagine those were not present on Switch/Xbox since these were basically commands applied to the game .ini.

      Also FWIW, may not really be worth picking up again unless you really want to endgame it. The developer was kind of a chud to the team from some of the stories I read which seemed to result in the endgame kind of teetering off into nothing. Like, once you find all the NPC’s you’re not playing for anything but to build and optimize, even though it feels like it’s leading you on with more to unlock somehow.

      I’d double check of course, as with anything it could be a bunch of nonsense. But yeah I pretty much agree, it’s an ok game with some issues, they can be remedied on PC but even then it’s just kind of like you work to it, you did it, it’s done and what was the point. There’s nothing to take away from the game, I guess.
