I used 3dsMax and Blender.
And every time I try to do something in 3dsMax I can do it on Blender in half the time.

10/10 Better that $1k software.

EDIT: Oh look, 4 years later and this game has become a disgrace. I don't know why I thought Ubisoft was changing in any way. The community is extremly toxic, operators have become such a convoluted mess, the BattlePass and skins made it a weird cashgrab, and hackers are rampant all over the place.

If you want to buy it, wait for the extreme discounts they have apparently every year, as you will have to buy the extra 80% of the game with in-app purchases anyways.


Ubisoft is clearly improving the game every time, and the servers (still Uplay potatoes) seem to hold a lot better.

The game is worth it and very different every time. Recommended.

This is weird, but in the good way.
I really cannot get a general idea abut this. It really feels weird playing each level without knowing what is happening. At the end, you still don't know what happened.

And when you make an idea about what happened, then, and just then, you will be playing.

Trading Cards.

An amazing experience that will trigger some questions about life and humanity. The game itself goes over very deep and complex topics using simple text files, stored in computers all over the game world. This game definitely requires a calm explorer, who likes to read (a bit).

Without spoiling anyone, the story is based in the mystery of not knowing what the hell is happening. Every time you get information about who are you, or where you are, a new theory comes across your head. It's like magic.

While the gameplay is simple (which doesn't mean easy) and has only a small amount of mechanics that work together, the graphics, effects and scenarios are excellently crafted and really beautiful. Although, most of that doesn't matter when you have an incredible story. And The Talos Principle has definitely one of those.

It is the first game in which I do not want to play the actual core game (the puzzles), but instead I just want to finish the current level so I can obtain more information, stories and audio clips in each area.

The game suggests in a sublime way the future of artificial intelligence and the infinite possibilities of a virtual universe, while questioning our own universe with elaborate theories, really creepy questions about life, death and consciousness. It even reflects on how humans act in front of a machine depending on the level of consciousness it has, instead of thinking if that machine is alive or not in the first place.

The only issue I could find, is that the story of The Talos Principle raises impossible and unsolvable questions that will encourage players to end as quickly as possible to find the answers they seek. Making the player "rush" an otherwise well engineered puzzle game.

An AMAZING game, with interesting gameplay mechanics, that can become a bit repetitive in the final puzzles.

TL;DR: Good for players that can describe themselves as patient explorers. Fair puzzle game where difficulty depends on how much of a completionist you are. 10/10 story. Re-playable.

There are few mechanics, but seem that you use hundreds, and combined become thousand. To reach the end you will only pass through 10% of the total rooms. I ended the game in 4h. and 100% in 6h. But the awesome part of the game is that can be completed in les than 7 minutes.

There are a lot of easter eggs that lead to rooms showing how the game was created and other development screenshots.

It misses things like Steam-cloud save and achievements, but you don't need them to reach the 100% of the game.
It's just awesome.

Getting old, and Assetto Corsa 2 it's on the way, but this sim is still worth it. Get it while on sale though!

EDIT: They are smart at least. Great game, but the mods stuff will keep there.

One of the best games of last years. But, they have pay mods. That's a no for me. Don't support the developers until they say no to paid mods.

Hey T2. Bring back mods.

Es Arte. Esto es mejor que ir a un museo.

Debería darte vergüenza no tener esta obra de arte en tu librería de Steam. Es más, deberías crear 10 cuentas y comprar el juego en cada una de ellas. Y pasártelo dos veces en cada una. En distintos idiomas y dificultad.

Definitivamente es Dios.
