Quite good. Sans any real spoilers:

Space is a lot more accessible in the early game, and in space ~~no one can hear you scream ~~ there’s a lot more complications than normal, including really turning factory planning and scaling on its head on one planet.

Really mixed it up, much more than the SE mod did (which was good, but just felt like scaling more than unique challenges)

I’m an idiot, no clue how I missed that

It’s somehow not on the list? That’s actually unbelievable

Yeah, a truck would make me feel better. It’s definitely a risk to move it myself uninsured. For comparison, looks like post tax prices delivered of ~14-18% more in Denmark than the US where we are.

That’s a fair bit, but I’m not sure we’re in the market to try this hard to save a few hundred dollars in such a massive move. I lean towards selling, especially once we packed a big suitcase and it went VERY quick with stuff we love lol

Very very little to move. Just what we can carry onto planes basically. Hoping to stay in a spot for many years, but you never know. The packaging is a good idea, I should price compare properly

Oh that’s a great call. I’ll have to look and find the balance here between ship and buy.

Great suggestion, I think making them ready to play might be the move

They’re not super old, we’ve got some pics and such we like obviously. Maybe ~100 gigs total of “important files” but it sounds nice to have “my computer” back when I arrive?

Love your write up. I feel similarly, and many many randomizer runs (Archipelago.gg is great for it), speedruns, and classic playthroughs later I still find the atmosphere and music incredible

Are you playing on an emulator? There’s a plethora of cool Pokemon roms based on fire red

That’s a cool read. I would much rather play a smaller passion-project of a game than a AAA one anyway, but it’s cool to see markets shifting that way on the large

I started one quick Pokerogue run on Friday and now it’s Sunday and I haven’t put it down

I didn’t even know that “BioShock Infinite good” was a hot take. I loved the story, and it’s somewhat open ended nature. That’s most of my friends’ takes as well

I just can’t put Hades II down! It’s not finished, and I’m running up against that more and more. But the polish is incredible!

Holy hype batman. I’m so stoked!

Done! Thanks for making this visible. It wasn’t too hard at all. Hopefully this will help everyone be able to continue spot passing

These all sound like emulator-ideal criteria to me!

There’s a lot of non-free versions of that which are super reasonable and meet all of your other criteria nicely. Stardew Valley, Slay the Spire. Games that are full games for a one time low cost.

That’d be pretty interesting if they could pull it off

Yeah, a few “natural disasters” or random whatever’s would add to the mid/late game. Once water is stable, it’s easy to thrive anytime. Bad water is a nice mix up for that for sure.

And yeah, big time machine energy.

I have about a hundred hours in it. Here’s some scattered thoughts:

–The devs clearly care a lot and it’s a labor of love. They communicate well, provide updates, listen to feedback, engage with the community. They’re lovely.

–the game has a fun series of mechanics, good visuals, good music, fun vibes. It’s a bit… Sandboxy, towards later in most runs. I don’t know what to do with my settlement come cycle 12-15 (cycle is 12-20 days or so). I wish there was a little more of a goal for it, like scenarios

–good mod support and map making. People have made some dope maps for it

I’m gonna continue to revisit it as campaign/scenarios evolve, as mechanics are added, and as I want to get my beaver vibe on
