One thing I can’t understand about Asterix and Obelix XXL 3 is why Sam Shieffer is completely absent from the game and not even mentioned. He appeared in both of the previous XXL games and saved the Gauls’ lives in the 2nd game. XXL 3 contains verbal references to them, but it’s like they completely forgot about the spy.

Thanks to my friend for providing one of the screenshots.

Now excuse me, I want to do something “cringy”...

WE 👏  WANT 👏  SAM 👏  SHIEFFER 👏  IN 👏  X 👏 X 👏 L 👏  3 👏

It’s normal for “Asterix” characters to get different names in different translations, but it’s still a bit mind-fucking to me that Sam Shieffer’s name in the original (French) version is Sam Fichaure

Yes, laurel wreaths that give you outfits that are purely cosmetic and have no influence on gameplay are very important.

Don’t worry, I still like you.

I’ve encountered an issue with taking screenshots from this game. This game can only be in full-screen mode. I play it on Windows 7 64-bit (with a patch, as it doesn’t work on 64-bit systems normally). If I try to take a screenshot using Print Screen, I can’t hide the game’s window, and if I open Task Manager the game gets stuck at a black screen and has to be closed or else I can’t even use any other programs, but I can paste the screenshot and save it. That’s what I did here. If I try to use Lightshot, it doesn’t recognize the game and acts as if I didn’t take any screenshot or keeps the previous memorized image.

Is there anything I can do about this?

EDIT: my friend suggested me Fraps, it works
