>tfw you get home after a long day, pet Maggie then just stand around on the balcony listening to Bladerunner Blues
anyone else played it? comfiest vidya ever, literally fell asleep to it a couple of times. wonder if it gets re-discovered by the masses now.
(feel free to retire the thread if it's inappropriate, mods)
Always wanted to try it, never got around to it. Where to pirate?
This. I remember reading stuff in magazines back in the day but never got around buying it.
never played it. is it just an adaption, or is the story separate from the movie?
its a different story
it's up on tpb, but I'm sure you can find a comfy complete gameplay on youtube
it's separate, but it features some of the characters and it takes place during the same timeframe IIRC. there's also like a shitload of endings you can get, in some you turn out to be a replicant, in others you're human
sounds interesting. always known about this game, but never really bothered playing it for some reasons, haven't played video games in years. are there technical difficulties/bugs etc with it, it's kind of old.
the dog dies
Probably the only game based on a movie that's as good as the source. It was the first time the I'd experienced multiple endings that actually made sense to your playstyle and weren't just good/bad. I think there were thirteen depending on whether you played as a full human or replicant or something in between.
Downloading now, will start tomorrow.
yea, the gun range doesn't work but I think there is a patch for it and some clue are lost in the background and are easy to miss. It is a good game though.
Fucking retarded Sup Forums mods
>you get to run off with a delicious little pre-teen
Exquisite game.
It's the best adventure game.
Really unfortunate people don't know about it.
>Here you go Maggie, dinner time.
Why'd you have to remind me, I got teary eyed just thinking about it.
THAT WAS MY APARTMENT, ASSHOLE.
THAT WAS MY DOG.
you mean fucking pragmatic Sup Forums mods
this is a video game
can't say sure, last time I played it was about six years ago on a POS laptop with Vista, back then it ran fine.
defo worth a try though, it's only like 1.5 gigs tops
haven't been on Sup Forums for years, I-I'm scared, guys
After reading DADoES I have trouble enjoying blade runner or anything blade runner related
But even before reading the book I considered the blade runner game as a mediocre adventure. I even enjoyed Beneath a Steel Sky more, and that's saying something.
Based on a film. Which is currently popular on the board. I'd rather discuss it with fans of the films than with Sup Forums shitposters.
So if you kill your female police partner but also kill the replicants, how does that ending possibly make sense?
>not posting the best part of the game
not enough feet, Sup Forumsposting and sneed for a Sup Forums thread.
at least they didn't just outright delete it
was she the one voiced by the NCIS goth chick?
>End up getting the Lucy ending
I AIN'T GOING BACK TO JAIL MAN
Well hello there Lucy!
Loved it as a kid, company lost all the original source for the game, if you've got a copy never let it go.
I can't get this fucking game to run properly, a bunch of characters are invisible
WTF are you talking about? Mediocre? this game was awesome. Beneath a Steel Sky not only was obscure it also has nothing related to blade runner in any sense other than being "futuristic", ie, you are a random retard who never played the game and is shilling your favorite random obscure game. kys
Give me a hard copy of that.
I'm in demand!
is this the game where you could zoom in on photos
To be completely honest, blade runner is thousands of time better than its source novel.
>literally fell asleep to it a couple of times
it must be a seriously terrible piece of dog shit then.
I love the book, I love the film, watched the new one last night, it's awesome, and the sound track is fantastic, I had the game as a kid, probably about 9 years old, absaloutely loved it, so wish I still had my copy.
The game completely captured the aesthetic of the movie. It's uncanny really.
THAT CAN'T BE ME
Yep.

>calls beneath a steel sky obscure
It's free on GoG, it's probably one of the most played adventure games out there. I guess that's how much you know about the genre.
I think if you compare them within their own medium Bladerunner is more important but between the two the book has so much more going on
i have the physical version still, i loved this game.
Yeh tottaly agree man, I thought the story was great for a standalone in the universe, a labour of love man.
mods are letting that pretty blatant Sup Forums thread about the new one continue so I doubt they would take down the one that is actually about videogames
>not having slept next to Ray chilling on his balcony while Vangelis plays on repeat
you missed out boy
It's a fantastic game. I remember playing it as a kid, but getting so scared in the mansion with the walking puppets that I had to put it down. Picked it up a few years later and loved the crap out of it.
The whole twist in the final chapter is also pretty damn great, though the game does feel a bit unfinished at certain parts. Would still love to play a sequel of sorts.
I've gotta respectfully disagree, the book delves more into the meaning man and what it is to be human.
aw shit, i played that as a retarded kid and got literally nowhere
not sure if i'd even seen blade runner at the time
Got the big box version on my shelf, fantastic game. RIP Westwood.

That whole building is a nightmare.
They really nailed just how horrific it'd be to actually live in that universe, especially in the dregs.

Does it run on modern hardware?
Just play SNATCHER
Yes the question of what is to be human. The movie has the same question and is more well made. The book is really bizarre. It always seemed to me like a book made by a schizophrenic drug addict. The only thing I like about the book was the fact that the protagonist started to doubt himself for only a few minutes that he was an android. There's no ambiguity in the book about the character of the protagonist. He's not an android. Blade Runner made this more ambiguous and it was my only complaint about the movie. The aestethic of the movie (not its message) is what makes the movie so important.
>The game completely captured the aesthetic of the movie. It's uncanny really.
It literally reuses shots from the movie, I guess it's something suited to a point and click game that wouldn't have worked the same way as a 3D game.
Needs a patch, but you can't use the gun range.
Not a big loss, really.
The game is technically 3D, all the character models are fully rendered, they just look 2D.
I remember reading a making-of at some point.
i don't have an optical drive, but i really don't think so. the version i have pirated has a patch that makes it compatible with a modern OS.
so did anyone else realize that the secret ingredient was real cheese?
There's more to the ambiguity than that, straight off deckard being unable to use the empathy box, empathy being one of the most basic of traits in us as humans
ILLEGAL CHEESE
20 YEARS IN THE KIPPLE MINES
Don't suppose you remember where you pirated it?
I don't think you've fully appreciated the purpose of the book. It isn't about what somebody is, the whole book is a journey on overcoming the narrow-mindedness of categorizing everything into "man" or "animal" or "alive"...etc. The book is a journey on accepting that everything is nothing, at the Zen level. The movie is in a completely different direction.
>You mightn't happen to have a piece of cheese about you, now? Would you, boy?
- Deck in BR2049 (quoting Treasure Island)
deepest lore
And the fact that Deckard almost immediately says he's not an android. Probably was programmed to never queston his humanity or something. And there are other things as well, I just don't remember
No, I understood. And that's whay I don't consider the book as good as the movie. I know it's not about humannes but something like Herman Hesse books. And that why I always laugh when someone says the book is about what is to be human.
sadly i played it when i was too young, to understand films, too young to understand the mechanics
but holy hell i LOVED it, so much detail and things to do
never got around to finishing it
Tried to get it to run on Friday but wouldn’t. Did someone say there’s a patch somewhere?
Don't use windows 10. Play on wine or windows 7
>No, I understood
No you didn’t. Because that user you just agreed with didn’t. It’s about the separation of artificial vs “real” being not important. Nothing mattering is the exact opposite of what the book was saying. Everything matters, even if it’s artificial. Eventually it’s exposed that mercerism is a fraud religion. It does matter because it still connects people and makes them feel. Experience matters, interpretation matters, feelings matter, the book is stating that the context of these things isn’t as important as people make it. Deckard questions whether it’s moral to deactivate androids, justifying it as not murder, but is it really moral if androids feel fear and participate in self preservation and thought? Is their artificiality actually important at that point?
>BR game
>box cover dude looks like johnny mnemonic
tried upgrading your RAM to 160 gigs?
Android Police station chapter is more interesting than the entire movie

Thank you
it was a bitch to get running on vista, and i can't imagine it would work on w10
for once i think gog would actually earn their money by doing the compatibility sorcery with this
Westwood lost the source code.
Or getting room service
>compatibility sorcery
