Jan 24th, 2016 at 21:46:50 - This war of mine (PC) |
So I heard quite a lot about “This War of Mine”, but never had the opportunity to play it until now. I actually bought the game about a year ago, as I knew I would eventually play it. So here are some initial thoughts about it.
Before I started playing the game I opened the Option menu and found the usual Audio/Video settings, however I also found two settings under the “Misc.” category: Language and Temperature. Language is expected, but I was quite surprised to see the option of switching the Temperature between Fahrenheit and Celsius. This immediately gave me the impression that temperature plays an important part of the game and at this moment I already started fearing my characters’ lives, I can already see one of them dying from the cold, and I haven’t even started playing.
The first 10 minutes of playing I spent learning the basics and quickly realized that this game is all about scavenging resources necessary to survive and managing the distribution of said resources. As scavenging is such an important part of gameplay I quickly realized that Marko (in game character who has the largest capacity to scavenge) became my number one, my favorite. Pavlov and Bruno were less important to me at this time. After four sleepless nights of scavenging, Marko’s stats quickly deteriorated as I was overworking him, he became extremely tired and in need of rest, while Bruno and Pavlov were mostly sleeping and not doing much.
It is interesting how the character that I liked the most got overworked the most. I liked him but at the same time didn’t care for him. A very sad begging. Marko is now recovering while Bruno and Pavlov take his place scavenging.
