Megathread for any sequel discussion, any thoughts. wishes, hopes and dreams!

I finally gave Great Circle a go, but it makes so many problems on my TV I get a headache just from booting it up.

If I start the game I always sit at 5-7 fps, even in the menu. I can only fix this by going into the settings and swapping between native/FSR and DLSS a few times. Most of the time it just crashes the game back to desktop (without error!) but sometimes it works and suddenly everything runs super smooth like it should on 70-80 frames. (Restarting the game and it sits again at 5 fps)

I guess this has something to do with DLSS + HDR because I only have this problem on my TV not on my non HDR monitor.

Sadly playing without DLSS is not really an option because my 3080 10gig tanks heavy on 4k/high native.

What I tried:

- Disabled Low Latency in NCP
- Updated graphics drivers
- Disabled Windows HDR/TV HDR/ Ingame HDR
- Played around with graphics settings, non of them changed anything
- Window/Full Screen/Borderless

What I have:

- 3080 10 gig
- 9900k
- 32 DDR4 3600
- LG OLED G5 connected to my PC via 10m fiber HDMI (cant imagine this beeing the problem as other games work very well with it)

Any ideas what I could try? The workaround I use is so terrible annoying - thanks in advance!

Bought the premium edition for $25 on fb marketplace so not really an issue if the code was already used if it comes with it, was just wondering

So I've spent around 3 hours trying to fight the blind giant in the giza part, and I've hit him like 14 times (7 with the unpowered metal bar, 5 with the powered bar, and 2 with the revolver) what the hell should I do I'm taking a little break

I played it when it released after having finished the main game and I found it to be a bit of a slog with so much of in being set in the sewers. It somehow felt too long and too short at the same time. It only felt like it was picking up right at the end.

I'm replaying the game on NG+ this time around and the DLC really dragged. It actually hurts the pacing of the game I feel. That was already a concern of mine before release when I found out it would be set during the events of the game.

It also feels like it was designed to be played after you get the lighter, despite being set before, with how dark the sewers are and how few torches there seem to be.

The puzzles were good, better than the main game probably, but the overall package kind of hurts the experience I feel. If I ever do another playthrough after this one, I'll keep the DLC uninstalled, thankfully we have the option.

Especially for the price I was hoping for more.

The ending felt underwhelming. I started playing last weekend and 100%ed it earlier today. I had a few bad bugs, but luckily it didn't affect the story in any way. It's an amazing story nevertheless, with all the clues and notes that fill up the world. I do have issues with QoL and the autosaving, as when playing through the game, I wasn't looking for every little secret, so having to backtrack so far just to get one thing was annoying. Especially in the temple in Gizeh, because I had to go all the way back to the beginning of the temple to get out.

If I could just choose where I wanted to go when I backtrack to a previous location, that would have been helpful. Most annoyingly, the game doesn't autosave after you get a new note/picture, so if something happens, you have to go back and get it again. Towards the end, in Gizeh and the Vatican, I had a glitch where I could not change my outfit, which put me in some sticky situations, but I managed. The biggest glitch was that I had a guy I knocked out, who was permanently in my view whenever I was in the Vatican. None of the NPC noticed him, which was good, but he still had a model, so he kept knocking into everything.

I do wish that the ending had Indy going back to the US and reflecting on this adventure, because it draws a line that was left from Raiders with Marion. From what we know, Mutt was born in July of 1938. Meaning that the Siwa Cat Mummy expedition happened right after Mutt was conceived. It might be an easter egg for die hard fans, but it could also have flash forwarded a year later, after the events of Last Crusade, where Indy is writing his letter to Marion. (Which was mentioned in Crystal Skull). In the game, Voss touches an insecurity about Indy and his dad, so there could have been some parallels there, as they flashed back to the opening of Raiders, they could have done something similar with flash forwarding to right after Last Crusade.

The references were fun, from what I recall, the monkey from Raiders was mentioned ('the monkey was old, it didn't die from eating dates'}, the plane scene from Last Crusade was referenced. Even Lao Che was mentioned, which I find crazy because they refuse to acknowledge Short Round in any sense, because from what I've seen, Indy adopted Short Round. It would have been amazing to see Ke Huy Quan in Dials of Destiny at the end. Heck, they even referenced Willie Scott in Crystal Skull.

I do believe this is the last we will see of Locus, given Tony Todd's passing, unless they do a book sequel, with Indy trying to find the new 18th stone in Antarctica, but that just may be my coping, because we haven't had a single Indiana Jones book since 2009, and the last Indiana Jones game we had was Lego Indy 2 in 2009 as well.

Why is the underground boxing mini game the final fight.

I hope whoever designed that trash gets a papercut in between their fingers.

total word vomit ranting lol:
LOVE this game so far, i am having an absolute blast, and i just finished the vatican chapter. i am playing on my boyfriends xbox at his house so i am trying to savor the time i have to play, and get as many hours in as i can since i cant just steal his xbox and bring it home lol. i am really not the best at video games, and i have never ever gotten close to getting 100% on any game.
on this game, i tried very hard to NOT have to go back to the vatican to get anything else. i was super vigilant, spent many hours doing my best to collect absolutely everything, do every mystery, take every picture, etc.
then i got to the end of stolen cat mummy. i had completed everything except for the last few relics, and notes that you find in the last part. i got everything i wanted, all i had was 2 notes from the stolen cat mummy mission to collect.
i thought to myself, surely, these last two must be in the next area, right?
stuck in a cutscene. he jumps on to the blimp. i am DEVASTATED. now its genuinely not a big deal, i know i can go back. but since i suck so bad and i was so proud of myself, missing 2 was a slap in the face. my bf says its no big deal, i know, but i am just so sad. it would be different if i missed like 5, but TWO????
does anyone feel my pain :( i just logged off before they even flew away. fuck this game for not having manual saves </3
all jokes aside the best game i think ive ever played besides red dead redemption 2

TLDR: i almost 100% completed the vatican chapter but i was a dummy and missed 2 notes. i am irrationally upset
