[but-a-humble-goon]

You know what'd be fun? A stealth game where the story actually plays out differently if you reach certain parts of the game without ever having been detected yet. Like say, if Solid Snake gets halfway through the game avoiding every single enemy and never raising any alarms then when he turns up to the villains' HQ to eavesdrop on them they actually aren't even aware anyone's in the facility yet. All the ambushes they set for him simply aren't there because, well, they don't know there's even an infiltrator so why would they be mobilizing against him? The true measure of absolute success in a stealth game should be if by the time the end credits roll the villain still has no idea the protagonist even existed.

Ghost of Yōtei Keeps Expanding

The developers behind Ghost of Yōtei confirmed that one final major update is still on the way before support for the game slows down. According to the team, the update will focus on polishing long-requested features, gameplay adjustments, and additional content tied to community feedback that has built up since launch.

The game has steadily grown in popularity thanks to its open-world combat, heavy atmosphere, and strong visual style, with players comparing parts of it to both Ghost of Tsushima and older stealth-action games. The developers apparently see this last update as more of a proper sendoff than a routine patch.

Details on everything included are still limited, but the announcement already has fans speculating about extra missions, balancing tweaks, and possible quality-of-life improvements. It sounds less like an expansion and more like the developers trying to leave the game in its best possible state before moving on to whatever comes next.

My Feedback: There’s something oddly reassuring about studios doing one “final pass” update instead of quietly abandoning a game after release. Even when it’s small stuff, players usually notice the effort.

I'm proud to say I've finally finished Splinter Cell Chaos Theory (again). My first experience with this game and Splinter Cell in general, believe it or not, was Splinter Cell 3D on the 3DS. An unusual place to start the series, but I was just a kid with a 3DS, and it was one of the games my dad bought for me. I remember having so much fun with that game and the amount of freedom you got. The amount of cool ways to approach a situation, distract enemies, playing around with the light and noise and shit. It was incredible and I must have played it like 5 times.

I only found out later in life it was based on Splinter Cell Chaos Theory, and it was actually an inferior version. So I had bought the game on Steam hoping to play it, but got disappointed it didn't have controller support on the PC Version, so I simply emulated the Xbox version on xemu. I was having a lot of fun until I got to that Bathhouse level. It was going pretty fine at first, until I got to that room with the 3 mercenaries and the part where you need to defuse the bombs. I don't exactly remember how this went in Splinter Cell 3D. It must have been a different level. I heard it was based of the PS2/Gamecube version.

It was a very painful experience. Shetland's mercenaries spot you so ridiculously fast it was annoying. It led to me to quit playing the game for several months. But there was a part of me that didn't want to leave any unfinished business behind, but didn't know how to address that annoying section of the Bathhouse, so I was simply waiting until I got interested in the game again.

I eventually found a thread on Steam that actually modifies the game to give it proper controller support like the Xbox version except for browsing menus, so I downloaded that, and replayed Chaos Theory all over again. This time I had to strictly follow a guide just to get by that one portion of Bathhouse. You notice it's the only level below 95%. I don't care much for that level and I'm glad I've finally moved past it and properly finish the game.
