The talos principle road to gehenna stars world 2 free#
Here, you hold all the answers from the beginning of the game, and over the course of the game you can comfort others as you free them (via the messageboard terminals you cannot directly interact with anyone). In the first game, you gradually uncover what is going on, as well as what your purpose is and why you are doing the things you’re doing, and what the purpose of the world is. Moreover, because it is extremely obvious from early on what is going on, the game is basically entirely lacking in any sort of mystery or discovery. Honestly, only MrMulciber ended up seeming all that interesting, and while Admin was in principle interesting, in practice he is simply not developed well enough over the course of the game, nor does he exhibit the sort of personality you saw out of the Milton Library Assistant in the first game. The result is that none of them are particularly well-characterized, and while it works okay, I was not left caring about almost any of the characters. The problem is, this just isn’t very engrossing – your interactions with most of the characters is fairly sporadic, and there are 17 AI processes (plus Uriel himself) whom you interact with. Except that the secret is pretty obvious from the get-go – Gehenna is like any other internet community, and the game sort of centers around the situational irony/humor of reading a bunch of people in a community talking to each other on a messageboard, with its own internal rivalries and characters and such. As you free the various AI processes, you get more messages to read and possibly respond to on the boards, and uncover the secret of Gehenna. The only way to interact with them is via their message boards, which they’ve set up on the terminals in Gehenna. Instead, this game focuses on the AI processes who are banished to Gehenna. This is the total sum of your interaction with Elohim he speaks a few lines at the beginning and a few lines at the very, very end, but he receives no real additional characterization or focus. Uriel, one of Elohim’s messengers, is tasked to go to Gehenna, a place where Elohim banished all the AI processes who didn’t follow his orders. The events of the game take place after the end of the original game.

Also has a decent soundtrack as with the main game, and a few secrets. If you just want a DLC that really brings out the best in the game's mechanics, this is a must-have. It's based around a community forum and is really well-implemented though a bit too dry on the story front - everything's disconnected and there's not much interaction with other "characters". The story is even more text-based though, to the point where if you aren't interacting with the terminal then there really is no story at all. It's not just "more of the same" because although there are no new additions to your puzzle-solving arsenal, there is a deeper exploration of the mechanics. It has 5 worlds (to see the last, you have to get all the stars and the puzzles are significantly more difficult than any other puzzles in the game) with plenty of interesting puzzles.
