Are you cherry picking the good games out of older libraries? I find people do that a lot when remembering. It’s a survivorship bias thing. The good ones get remembered more and the bad one forgotten, so they seem like the population is better.
Nowadays? I’ve never enjoyed mobile gaming. Every time I try, there’s been an absurd paywall or monetization. Once that strikes, I’m out.
Yes
It’s not Zelda like, but if you like factory games, Satisfactory is as close to open world as a factory game gets. You land on a planet and have to build a factory to launch things into space for corporate overlords. It’s first person, lots of climbing and building. There’s a tiny bit of combat, not the focus tho.
The battery died on my old shaver. Because I can’t leave well enough alone, I decided to see if I could replace it. Spent so much time tracking down the battery model number and looking for a replacement only to find out it’s a standard triple a. It’s identity was obfuscated by the stupid labeling. Soldered it in and bam, razor still works for several years.
I thought this was commonly known, but I keep seeing it all over the place. All CEOs think like this. Customer acquisition is a metric all sales departments use. Is it because he’s saying the quiet part out loud?
Master of Magic. I know strategy isn’t everyone’s thing and turn based isn’t either and high fantasy isn’t usually strategy staple, but it’s damn near perfect in execution. There are some minor nitpicks, but the game is definitely a 9/10*s. None of the spiritual successors have ever been so well executed. They always fall flat somewhere.
Disagree. If this was true, terrible companies should be named and shamed.
That’s what it is.
This can’t be real. There are so many red flags this is fake. 1) Everything is censored. 2) GIS (Google image search) lookup only shows reddit and linkedin. The linkedin post is just as vague “learned a colleague received this!” 3) It’s too good to be true. it plays on current fears. 4) It’s just so dumb.
Deep rock Galactic is my vote. It doesn’t have a narrative, but it does have a very thin campaign. It’s mostly a few voice overs and random missions. However, the difficulty is scalable, if you’re looking for a challenge. The game is incredibly movement focused. Each class has a movement power that’s unique. Gunners get zip lines that are slow but go up and anyone can use them. Scout has a grappling hook that’s fast and unlimited but only they can use it. Engineer makes platforms that anyone can scale. Driller can tunnel thru the rock any direction. The terrain is deformable.
I really like the art style.
Weird. It works for me. Idk how to help you, sorry.
I’m also on lemm.ee I use catbox.moe for image uploads.
Counterpoint. Rimworld is complicated. EU4 is super complicated.
Not op. I saw the good reviews and so I thought I’d give it a try. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong, but I am very bad at that game and die all the time. I looked up other negative reviews and some people seem to agree with me that I just need more armor or something. I don’t understand all of the positive reviews and how difficult I find the game to be. I loved MW one and two and three, but I guess this one isn’t for me anymore.
That sounds like you need better brand. when the inventor got 500 cycles on their patented design 60 years ago… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nickel–metal_hydride_battery
I assume op was talking about rechargeable AAA batteries. At least then they’re hot swappable.
You have a point, but I think WoW succeeds in spite of itself. They promise big things then deliver a fraction. It never lives up to the hype, IMO. I think it’s that there’s nothing better, and if there was, it’d have to be a LOT better because of sunk cost fallacy. 80% of the reason I play WoW is because I have always played WoW. I like my stuff and friends there.
And it dismisses the time component of self hosting. It’s not going to be zero.
