Yea, I think thats a throwback from the ancient mesh code which is 15 yrs old or something silly. BMesh will fix that though...when it gets finished that is :P
the psychonaut demo was just a breath of fresh air, it is indeed something of a throwback in the best way possible. God bless Tim... it's also one of the first games in a while that is genuinely funny.
Here is a personal project I worked on that was a throwback to the virtual pet days! I remembered so many kids at school playing with these things. Check out the animated videos at www.artstation.com/stavi
Yeah, the last episode was great some minor things like the van aside. All the throwbacks to the old episodes and even other TV shows was great, and even the story itself that presented itself throughout the episode was good.
