      Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance also had zombies who could lose their heads and wandered around thereafter. You could even cut off both arms and they'd be harmless. Though that was more of a scripted/random occurrence (like some zombies would always lose their arms at certain health levels, or whatnot); you couldn't do it intentionally. It's from late 2001.

      Textures are still the same, geodata are still exactly the same, everything is equal, except you can now run it on a modern machine without it going 20 fps, randomly crashing or having a certain level be unplayable because of the fog render. I mean I can live with a short depth of field, but when you can barely see your own character it becomes a bit too much.

The developer was a Spanish company, Rebel Act Studios. A long and ambitious creation led the company to financial ruin but they splited into two new companies, one of which is MercurySteam, developers of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow or Metroid: Samus Returns.

Rather, I think it's a case of convergent problem solving based on the restrictions presented by both hardware and psychological factors. The fact that people make direct comparisons between BoD and the souls games is understandable though, given their 3rd person perspective and gritty gothic fantasy settings, compared to King's Field's first person gameplay, which doesn't gather the immediate visual correlation.

    People really missing out on Blade of Darkness, object interactions and dismemberment are great, but the combat system with different combinations and special attacks for each weapon(which sadly you couldn't highlight cause of the short time playing it) is one of the most interesting features in this game, each character plays differently as well, and has unique set of weapons to them, u can use them from other chars as well, but full potential of the weapons unfolds if used appropriate for the char. I really wish they would've remastered this brilliant game so more people today would play it.

    I got pranked hard by that Severance page. As soon as you showed a steam page, I opened Steam and tried to find it thinking it had finally been added to Steam.

      @@Y-all-mofos-need-Talos Yeah, but the world is just there, nobody was paid to build it or to explore It.
      In a videogame people were both paid to produce that waste of bytes and you paid to explore that void.
      Said so, there is void and void.
      Older games are, well, older, so you don't expect Ocarina of Time to be full of things. Other games like Botw just are based on your exploration, and having some free space is natural to separate areas that do have things. Other games are just... Not an open world. They are there to satisfy people desire of being out of "closed levels", nothing more.

      I don't know, I feel like the problem isn't that a lot of open world games are empty, it's actually that they are too full of boring meaningless crap (think chores, endless collectables, ticking boxes etc.) Honestly I think that it would be refreshing for more games to be emptier.
      I find it interesting that you would write this and that it would be a top comment when its pretty clearly untrue. Say what you like about the quality of open world releases but empty worlds aren't very common. Most games coming out are oversaturated with "content", the issue is the content just isn't very interesting or creative most of the time.
      But perhaps that is really what you mean when you say the worlds are empty. Empty of interest rather than empty of objects.

    I've been playing the Pascal's Wager PC port over the last 6 months, and actually really love it. I think I'd hate it in the original mobile form but the port is surprisingly solid. It gets SUPER weird and interesting too, there's a huge amount to it.
