When a game wants you to choose between a pistol and a revolver, what do you choose? What is the difference? I don't know much about guns.

@antoniav Revolver for high damage but slow reload and less ammo capacity. Pistol for faster reloads and more ammo but less damage.

@Esoteria @antoniav Also revolver in games usually have more recoil than pistols which makes aiming with them harder. But if u can aim properly the higher damage makes up for that.

Oh, I see. Thanks. I think I'm gonna be a pistol person then. I usually go for a stealthy sniper when I play games with shooting, but that is not an option in this game it seems.

@antoniav @Esoteria Which game is that?

@Turr1caN @Esoteria

It's called The Sinking City, by the same people who made the Sherlock Holmes games. It's mostly a detective game, and I think I would've liked it more if they had just let it be a detective game, and dropped all the shooting monsters stuff.

@antoniav @Turr1caN I may have played that. Is it the one based on H.P. Lovecraft’s works?

@Esoteria @Turr1caN

Yes, it is. I Iike the detective parts, but don't like the shooting monsters part of the game. But that may be partly because of my expectations, thought it would be just a detective game like the Sherlock Holmes games. Maybe I'll like it more if I quit now, and play it again in a few months and know what to expect before I start🤷🏼‍♀️ at least I know I want to invest in upgrading the pistol rather than the revolver now😊

@antoniav @Esoteria Ohhh nice. I played "Crimes and Punishment" and "The Devils Daughter" back then. I remember it was like playing a Sherlock movie.

I love the Sherlock Holmes games. Suppose I assumed The Sinking City would be more similar, genre wise. But find the shooting monsters part mostly just annoying.
