Release: Hard Reset Redux

<span class="bold">Hard Reset: Redux</span>, a heavily upgraded edition of the cult-classic cyberpunk FPS, is now available, DRM-free on GOG.com, with a 10% launch discount or 85% for owners of Shadow Warrior (2013)!

Humanity is under siege. Bezoar, the last bastion of mankind, is being attacked by bloodthirsty machines seeking to download its extensive data-bank, where billions of digitized human minds are stored. It's time for a last stand. It's time for hard decisions. It's time for a Hard Reset.

The relentless gunplay, the wanton destruction, and the hardcore sensibilities that gained the original its cult fame, are back with a vengeance. Hard Reset: Redux brings a barrage of improvements, including better visuals, a new enemy type, a sweet dash move, a mean-looking cyber-katana, optimized performance, and an all-around more balanced experience. Definitely a far more enjoyable one than what our mechanical overlords would want us to have, should they were allowed to succeed...

Lay waste to an army of nefarious contraptions and cause a <span class="bold">Hard Reset: Redux</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com.

jamyskis: Actually quicksaves are the thing I want least - I enjoy fixed checkpoints because it encourages a more cautious play style on my part. If I have quicksaves, I tend to get rather lazy and quicksave before any sign of danger. Gets boring.

omega64: Well, I'm not sure if you can disable them so the original version would be for you.
Seems like we're not getting the original as a bonus here so the Steam version would be your best bet.
But just because quicksaves are present doesn't mean you have to use them.

Read his post. :P
He might not have the self-control to do so.

Damn Twitter, always trying to make me register XD
It doesn't even work well for me (e.g: no videos).

I am not entering, but...

Suppose I were to enter and somehow win the grand prize. Thing is, I do not like NVIDIA due to their lack of open source drivers (and I am not willing to use proprietary graphics drivers). Is there a way that I could say "no" to that particular prize and not have it even shipped?

I just played this game for the first time, and tbh it has the same things which annoyed me about Shadow Warrior:
- Too many melee enemies, is there anyone who thinks melee enemies are fun in a FPS?
- SUICIDE melee enemies, those ball things which explode, it's like the return of the suicide drones from Duke Nukem 3D.
- Big enemies have too many hitpoints.

That said I haven't encountered any enemy yet which is an annoying as the shield demons from SW.

Using that combination of words, expect twitter to be alight with some very crude **** jokes.

omega64: I'd say having quicksaves probably makes the upgrade price worth it. :P

So does that mean the game has no manual saves at all?

It has saving at checkpoints. Quicksaving was added with this version.

Taken from game options:
"Enable checkpoints: with this option disabled you can only manually save your game progress"

But I imagine there is only one save slot ...

So by default it has checkpoints, but also a quick save feature?
