Bans in March 2023

More bans Aug. 2023

Some bans reversed

If I remember right, about a year ago they were banning a lot of Linux players. It might be happening again.

I can appreciate a website making a list like this rather than putting five games to a page to garner more clicks! I definitely have different tastes than the reviewers though, which is fine.

I don’t play games to get in the mood for a season, but I’ve noticed the last couple of years that I’m likely to play some games a lot more in certain seasons!

• Spring: Stardew Valley
• Summer: I don’t have anything specific here.
• Fall: Farming Simulator
• Winter: XCOM/XCOM 2

I’ve never heard of this show, but from what you’ve said and the quick research I’ve done it sounds like something I would be interested in. Thanks for the mention of it!

I’m going to have to spend some more time playing it again! It worked fine on my desktop install previously, so I’m curious to know what they changed to bump it to verified. I’m guessing UI tweaks or something with the launcher.

I had been talking with someone else on here about trying EVE in that playstyle a while back! I never tried it, but it always sounded interesting. Logistics sounds like it could be an interesting thing to try in Foxhole, I may need to give it a go.

True, that would be better. I was just going to watch them two nights in a row, but I might do that instead!

Is anyone here planning to watch the episodes over the time they’re supposed to occur? I’m thinking of watching part 1 tomorrow due to it being the date on the calendar onscreen, and part 2 the next day.

Okay, thanks for the information! I appreciate the offer, I’ll have to keep that in mind if I decide to get it. I think the logistics end of the game could be a lot of fun.

I generally just don’t play a lot of online games anymore. I have a job where I have to deal with people all day, so the last thing I want to do is go home and deal with angry people while I’m trying to relax!

I do play some Elder Scrolls Online and Star Trek Online, but I primarily do single player content. The normal extent of my interaction with human players is to help them if they need help, or to thank them if they help me.

I keep looking at Foxhole, but I’ve never tried it yet. Is the non combat segment of the game pretty chill overall? I’m not really a big fan of competitive MMOs, but the behind the scenes aspect does interest me. I hear about a decent amount of positivity in the playerbase, but I’ve definitely heard negativity about the recent state of the game.

My favorite theme is definitely Deep Space Nine!

Favorite scene is a little harder though. I’ll probably have to go with the montage scene in the last DS9 episode, which had a slow instrumental medley of The Way You Look Tonight and the DS9 incidental music.

I also think the scene in DS9: The Siege of AR-558 where Bashir is playing the recording of I’ll Be Seeing You is really good too. It works even better on a rewatch after you see how important the song becomes to Nog.

I’ve been playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance again. It’s just a great world to just ride around and do things in for a few hours. They unfortunately had to delay the sequel until the beginning of next year, so I’ve got to wait a little longer before I can do the same in the new one!

Oh yes, I fully expect it. It sadly happens way too often.

I had a lot of fun with the original Backyard Baseball when I was younger! I’m afraid I’ve aged out of the franchise now, but hopefully it interests a new generation! I just hope they don’t go the mobile/microtransactions route. Even though it’s apparently the most profitable model, it doesn’t usually make good games.

Also, here’s a video that gives you an idea of what the menus and customization options look like, although this is the older version of the home console. Not sure if they changed anything on the new ones. I would most likely buy one if I didn’t already own a lot of my favorite games, and I may still buy one anyway just to have something nice and simple to hook up and play.

Value is going to depend a lot on your preferences, but it does seem like a nice system for the price. I don’t personally own one at this point, but I have had the chance to play some games on the EXP, and in my opinion it’s a pretty good experience. Keep in mind that you’ll probably never see Nintendo and Sega specific titles on it, but there are a lot of good games outside of that. It’s probably going to come down to if it has games that you like.

As in what games are available for it?
