The Talos Principle 2 (Multi, XPd on a Linux OS PC) As 1k, the newest (and perhaps last) member of the reborn humanity, you set off on an expedition to explore a Mega Structure on a remote island. What you find could alter humanity's course forever.

So, (spoilers) as a direct sequel to the now 11yr old 1st game, you play as a new "human" that has left the Simulation and been incorporated into a body in the Real World. As human number 1000, you are the culmination of "The Goal" that "The Founder", Athena (the char you play in the first game) has set for Humanity. Or did she?

If you liked Portal, The Messenger, etc, you should play these games. They are excellently crafted. TP2 greatly expands on the scope
both in the environment you explore and the puzzles you must solve. Very brain hurty in a good way.

There is a ton of lore to discover in each area and it's great fun to go exploring off track to find it. The various sections of the island you explore are vastly different climes and each has new puzzle variations and extras. The interactions with your fellow "Humans" are all well written, enough that I actually found myself annoyed at some of the NPCs because of their scare tactic language, trying to stop you from exploring, finding answers, etc. On the flip side, some of the characters are very endearing.

The game is very pretty in the "old school bespoke assets" way, so expect to find a few graphical errors here and there 😉 The music is good, tho it can get repetitive. Mechanics feel good.

On the tech side, the game ran great on my Linux OS. I didn't notice much lag, any game ending glitches, etc. Also had no issues with my KK3 Max controller.

This was a great experience, one I don't think any puzzle minded gamers should skip or miss. Definitely do recommend. 👍 👍

The only thing that can kill the #SteamMachine is the #AI boom.

#PCGaming was already killed with the cryptocurrency boom. It can be killed again by a thousands cuts (RAM and SSD price hikes).

If that bubble doesn't pop in the next months, I expect it will cost around $800+.
