Pathologic 2

Как похорошел гаруспик при собянине

Pathologic 2 is a genuine work of art. Set somewhere in the Russian steppes nebulously somewhere in the early 20th century as the Town-on-Gorkhon faces the outbreak of a mysterious plague, you play as Artemy Burakh, a local Haruspex (half medically trained surgeon, half steppe mysticist) who has recently returned home after an extended absence to find his father murdered, as you attempt to cure the plague and save the town over 12 increasingly stressful days. Time each day is in short supply as you race to keep each of the named characters alive, accomplish your goals in figuring out the origins of the plague, solve your father's murder, develop a panacea, trade baubles with the townspeople for useful items, put in your daily shift at the hospital, and catch the daily midnight pantomime at the theater. All while managing your own reputation, hunger, thirst, exhaustion, and staying uninfected and healthy yourself. Day by day the battle lines change as new districts become infected (and therefore new characters are put at risk) and old infected districts get burned out and infested with looters. Each aspect of Pathologic 2 is intended to stretch you to your limit as you invariably strain your resources, time, and physical health to save a town that at times feels openly hostile to your brand of medical intervention. This immense pressure acts as a catalyst for you, the player, to truly engross yourself in the story of a town caught between the traditions of the past and the crushing weight of the future. Gameplay and frequent deeply philosophical conversations are intertwined to elicit stress and promote self reflection, as the game impels you to understand an almost alien culture, make difficult decisions and to live with them as you inherit the role set for you as both medical doctor and spiritual healer. While the difficulty can be extremely daunting and each failure increasingly punishing, I believe that Pathologic 2 is one of the best written, most ambitious games I have ever played, and certainly worth the attention of anyone undeterred by a challenge.

получил дробовик, собрал патроны на дробовик, дошел до финала, ни разу не стрельнул из дробовика

What I like the most is about this game is the realism, you will NEVER ESCAPE POVERTY, you'll be utterly confused and barely scrape by most of the time, though somehow you'll manage to get some drugs, which will make everything a little easier, just like real life. I also like the references to theater, which make me feel like the 60 hour drama theory course that I took in college that was taught by a professor with the most annoying gay voice ever was not a complete waste of time.

Шикарный симулятор сельского врача из 90-х. Воруй, убивай, вырезай органы тем, кого ты убил, собирай бутылки и мусор, вари сомнительные настойки, чтобы те, кто тебе доверился, протянули ещё денёк (спойлер: в 50% случаев зря старался). Прекрасное произведение искусства, которое перепроходить я буду разве что за большие деньги. Носиться по улицам Города я устал вместе с Бурахом. Разработчикам респект и поклон. Эмоций я испытал вагон. Тем, кто не играл - рекомендую. Тех, кто прошёл - обнимаю и плачу вместе с вами.

Прятки, салочки, догонялочки, считалки всякие, эти как их там, крестики нолики, ну и в ящик еще можно сыграть

Оригинальная, очень интересная и качественно созданная игра. Увлекательная настолько, что прошёл до конца, хотя и бросал и даже удалял ее в процессе прохождения (эмоций море просто). Поклон разрабам за то, что не пошли на поводу мейнстрима и создали уникальный продукт, а не очередную казуальную шляпу.
