TNL Game Club Month #2 - Blade Runner

[Mzo]

Yeah, there are definitely a lot of spots where it's easy to get stuck. Sometimes it turns out to be some obscure evidence or picture, maybe a dialogue option.

[YellerDog]

Dude, fuck that bomb scene. What the hell.

[Opaque]

Yeah, that's not an enjoyable part and it alone makes me not want to actually do a second play through, I'm not getting stuck there for like a fucking hour again.

Also, how come when you zoom in on some pictures it like, bends around objects and shows things from another angle? I don't remember that in the movie, but maybe I forgot? It's neat, and future like, I just don't get why it's possible.

[YellerDog]

Finally got it, you just have to double click really fast ONCE and THAT'S IT; if you single click then double click, boom --fucked.

That machine was totally in the movie, yeah. The idea is that the computer is powerful enough to calculate what's around corners based on reallllly subtle reflections and refractions of light in a scene.

[Opaque]

I only remember him zooming in on a tiny mirror in the movie. Not bending corners.

But whatever.

I've been going slow with this, but I've been liking it. How early in the game do ending-changing things happen?

[bbobb]

Very early and constantly. There's a billion things that affect your ending.

[Mzo]

I would love to see a detailed guide of what exactly is variable in each playthrough, what your choices are, and their repercussions.

I always felt like the discs you receive from the video cameras are some sort of 3D imaging and not just a simple picture. Once you find something interesting, you're able to hard copy an actual picture of the scene on the disc. There are some parts where you can get stuck unless you find every picture a disc has to offer with no prompting at all from the game that something may be missing, and it's kind of annoying.

The part where you VK the actress (if you want I guess) and get arrested is straight out of the book. The scenes that follow are an infinitely better mindfuck in the book than here where you get rescued by Robocop bitch busting in through the wall, fucking LOL.

I'm doing a no mercy run through and the best kill so far is definitely the blonde actress, that bitch was on fire and I blew her away out the window. I also kind of jumped the gun and blew Lucy away in the arcade before I ever got to VK her. In some playthroughs she ends up being human, WHOOPS.

How a motherfucker can watch the movie and then critique it so harshly without comprehending what is happening when Deckard is analyzing that photo... I don't even.

[Opaque]

I just watched the scene again, he goes in and out and moves side to side but nothing shows him zooming back out then bending a corner like in the game.
