![]() ![]() of course i stop and take a look at the enviornementsand such. but when i buy this i will rush the game just to get to that level. :) i need to get steam on my home pc, it wont play on my win7 laptop. I tried it again last night, got as far as Whitehall (you'll know when you get there the rest of these folks know what I mean) and simply couldn't set one single toe through the door. I suggest playing as many of them said they did: at night, with the lights off and headphones on. I think we're talking about grown men (well, college age at least) screaming like little girls while playing one of the scariest levels in any game, ever. ![]() It was FILLED with post after post saying things like "When spoiler, I think I almost crapped myself." and " I shrieked out so loud that I scared my dog and he barked at me." Thing is, judging from their writing style and tone all across the board, I do NOT think these are 13 year old kids. I once spent hours reading through a huge thread over on the TTLG forums about the Cradle. Solar Star *killer*:i doubt i will regret it! i didnt regret buying thief the dark project nor dishonored!(which is inspired by thief) and i hope to play this through without being a baby about it. The album wraps us in warmth and lets us bask in it.Messaggio originale di Cpt. ![]() This album is only 33 minutes long, and the themes and poetry leave us begging for more. It’s a beautiful ending and gives us some sort of closure to grab on to. Horses become symbols that come back in “abyss kiss” and “10 miles”.Įverything in this album seems to be cyclical, with the final track, “10 miles” bringing back the themes of death established in “terminal paradise” and showing how the passage of time can take memories and blur them into something tangible yet poetic and tragic.
