Sev

Yeah what a retarded take. NMS is a lonely boring experience with the dullest ditch water plot (love those vague-nothing dialogues lol) and the worst gameplay loop in a while. Don’t worry they’re adding x pointless feature in an update!

Granted I’m waiting on release to play SF, but no fucking way are the games similar.

I really despise that 3D no texture / low poly look. On Reddit when you see those ‘I have a dream, quit my job and now I’m making ………. Game!’ posts, some concepts sound amazing; aaaaaand it’s one of those game.

Settlement Survival is one. Big Banished fan, and Ss’ graphics just look worse to me. Like a cheap mobile game.

Not to say all of these are bad, Deep Rock looks gorgeous and smashes it in the art direction department

2D I don’t mind as there’s a lot of wiggle room to play with stylistically.

What’s the endorphin rush like for this game? OG RuneScape player, so I know getting the next tool or tree type but not sure how just having a stats screen gives the same kinda feeling?

A lot of people like Melvor so it must be doing something right :)

It’s lemmy, we hate anything regarding accounts, privacy and the corpos man!!

Not the right place to ask, or maybe to be seen. But I watched ACG’s video on this and I LOVE the classes and how meat n potatoes they are. No guffy [what I call] Horde style shit like Necromancer or whatever.

I’ve only ever played DnD once IRL in a discord and some online board thing, but I enjoyed the dice rolling and how posistioning worked. Is it a bit of xcom meets diablo if I twisted your arm to compare to another game genre? A friend and I tried that Gloomhaven game and we HATED it lol, but this looks a little more engaging at least from a very first glance.

Plus a few friends have picked it up, so i’m not sure if I could join their game to help kinda like we did with D4 which was super fun.

I saw purchases carry forward which is nice as I have a few stashes on file that I got somewhat recently.

Raft!

Totally random purchase with a friend and we have loved it and have been hard lining it.

Pretty much at the end now post story but now we’re just finishing off the ship. It’s been so nice I’m kinda sad it’s almost over.

We did originally mean to play Conan Exiles one night but just randomly grabbed raft, it’s really really good.

Yeah! That ending 😍

As above, So Below

Let me preface this with I also love most of the Paranormal Activity movies and Cloverfield, that found footage format when it came out to the mainstream was just really gripping to me and I try to vacuum up as much of them as I can.

As above, So Below really stuck with me, despite the opinion being somewhat mixed. I’ll also say, for some reason - I really like caves/subterranea. Minecraft, Deep Rock, 7 Days to Die mining, Runescape. I think I must of been a dwarf in a past life/dimension or some shit.

It just felt really desperate and the tunnel/horror aspect just kept going, those guys were fucked basically and it kept getting weirder.

Dylatov pass was a similarly cool but kinda shitty movie too, it has another name too Devil’s pass or something. I like that for similar reasons too, kinda dumb but equally hopeless feeling.

I don’t remember the name because it ALSO had two release names [regionally] for some reason. But it was two english ghost hunters who stayed in a church, there was a weird priest every now and then, and no spoilers - they found an underground basement and it…went from there he he he. That was good too and probably lower than 50% . Anyone know the name?? Found footage of course.

I miss the days of CD keys and multiple disks, oh and owning a cd drive within the last decade. Oh wait, nah I like my expansive day 1 regged steam account with everything in it, ever and cheap keys.

Although I do miss manuals. A good manual in the pre-smartphone world was epic toilet reading. Or a good bradygames strat guide. The GTA:SA one was soooo good.

Wow that phrasing is almost exactly what a PC gamer article said about one of my random comments when I googled my Reddit username. Sad really.

I’m the same too, was whipping out reddit on the phone at any chance, or browsing while doing something in discrod with mates. Now it’s Voyager for a quick blast (honestly, I kinda hate the feeds, I don’t have a comfy one yet, understand they’re reworking it soon-ish) and for a good read, I’m back on friggin…SomethingAwful and reading some legendary threads from past and present, it’s like a magical book of schadenfreude. Way better than mindless nothing on Reddit [Apollo].

Thanks Spez!

Price hikes suck but; I’m happy with YT premium, we watch a lot on TV (apple tv) and I skip between ipad and iphone every day. By all means if there’s an EASY alternative that doesn’t involve some janky bedroom api side loading jailbreaking shiz, i’m all ears though…

I had some crappy youtube thing on firestick before I upgraded to appletv and it was crap, ad free was nice but it was horrible and would always stop working in some form or fashion, it was a pain to maintain so I just paid for prem in the end.

I never watch on PC outside of short tutorial videos so browser addons are kinda redundant.

Still no word on the friendly blue triangles? They desperately need range settings🤞

Every little weird game i’ve played that has a fandom site, it always seems outdated and wrong. Plus mobile browsing on a phone is painful. I remember the runescape fandom site…ugh lol

Good stuff, gonna be interesting to see how it’s showcased.

I’m a similar in build to OP and my old chair was the Markus, my mrs uses it now and I groan at it when I do something on her PC, i’m a leg-crosser too and the marky is just a bit stiff after years on the Aeron

Herman Miller Aeron is the best chair i’ve ever had, it was expensive in 2017 and probably more so now but honestly…it may be one of my best life purchases ever, no joke. I’m on the PC all day, and along with walking and a2g squat-stretches I never have back pain or any neck weirdness (but thats due to good monitor pos’ for me of course I imagine).

BF3 and cod for sure. You’ll get sprayed by someone with a meta vector who is also leaping through the window at the same time.

The game winds me up, but it’s enjoyable when I’m drunk. Make of that what you will

Does it display dates on results? A lot of alternative I’ve tried don’t and I hate that…as a big Reddit searcher
