    Demo? What is this, 1998? Shouldn’t they just make you pre order and give you access 5 days early?

    I guess I should finally finish the first one, huh? Good game, but I guess I got bogged down 3/4 through it trying to figure out the story and some of the harder secrets. Probably should have just pushed through because I enjoyed the main puzzles way more.

    • Having only really heard the name tossed around a couple times, I don’t know much about them but the trailer for this new one piqued my interest. Is it an action adventure game or more like a point and click style puzzle game?

        It’s a first person puzzle game. You move around the world interacting with various elements, such as laser redirection, to obtain the keys needed to progress. There’s an interesting story going on at the same time, which although I didn’t find it super compelling, it was good enough to keep my attention to the end.

        It plays kind of like Portal, if Portal didn’t have portals.

      Yeah, I am 3/4 through the dlc so only zone 4 and secrecy zone left. Actually the 1st zone is harder than 2/3 combined with the recorder device star puzzle. The rest I just go through pretty easily. Hopefully secret zone is harder than 1.

    I really should play the first one, but lately I’ve realised first-person puzzlers have a higher chance of giving me motion sickness, so… :S

      Oh 😢 yea I think Talos 1 would probably have this effect. I don’t fully understand how your motion sickness is triggered but I kinda get the vibe.

      I had to stop playing because of that. It seemed fun otherwise.

    Very excited. I started to play the demo to make sure it would run on Ubuntu and it does – it just works.

    And I just created a Talos Principle community so we fans can share news and discuss the games:

    Join us if you’re into the games.

      Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]
