Rainbow Six: Siege

People who play it like COD are the worst players in the game. Everything is designed to reward methodical, team-focused strategy so you can get the upper hand on people who don’t pay attention and try to rush everything.

You might love and hate my answer: Titanfall 2

It’s literally both of these things. Pilots play the extremely fast, twitch-shooting superhuman game while Titans play the slow-paced boots-on-the-ground heavy-weighted gameplay.

It’s the best multiplayer shooter of all time and it survives thanks to the Northstar launcher on PC

A Mind Forever Voyaging, by Infocom.

It’s an old text adventure from the 80’s with a particularly cool and oddly relevant concept: You take the role of an AI that’s been meticulously raised in a simulation to truly become a general intelligence. The reason this project was undertaken was to eventually send you, the AI, into other simulations based in the near future to test the outcomes of various political policies of the new republican government, record your interactions, and report back to the engineers who created you.

The game’s designer said that he created the game in response to the despair he felt from Ronald Reagan being elected.

I haven’t gotten super far in it, but it has an incredibly well written short story in the manual that details all the events leading up to the start of the game, and so far the game itself is unlike anything else I’ve ever played.

Megaman_EXE,

How can I play this? It sounds really interesting!

ProdigalFrog,

You can play the game here on Archive.org, or you can download a copy from that page and play it in DOSBox Staging.

Here’s all the physical documentation you’ll need, such as the short story, how to play manual, and an in-world map (you’ll have to draw your own, but it’ll give you a rough idea of the land. If you find map making tedious, you could use a map someone else made).

Lastly, you’ll need this interactive copy protection wheel when it prompts you for a combination in game, right before entering a simulation.

Good luck! :D

Nice review! Genuinely made me want to jump back in. I know I won’t, but the nostalgia is real!

It has been over a quarter of a century since SimCity 3000 was released in 1999.

First off, rude.

Secondly, great write up. :)

Avowed and X4 depending on the mood. X4 started slow but I think I’ve started the process of getting the hang of the basics after 30 hours.

How is it for game streaming? I’ve been loving Apollo and Artemis

cRazi_man, (edited )

I haven’t tried yet. I think there are videos on YouTube showing Moonlight working well. Don’t know about other apps. I’ve installed Steam Link expecting that WiFi 6 should give a good streaming experience.

Artemis is a fork of moonlight and has absolutely surpassed it. Steam Link is garbage compared to it, and that is not an exaggeration.

Cassette Beasts and soon Lost Records: Bloom and Rage, Tape 2

I’m playing Cassette Beasts lately too! It’s such a good monster collector. The low poly 3D+2D aesthetic is on point and it’s real cozy. They don’t hide their Pokémon inspiration but they do their own thing with it and I really like their take. It feels both kinder and more stimulating. I love that basically all battles are doubles.

SweetCitrusBuzz,
@SweetCitrusBuzz@beehaw.org avatar

Yeah. I never really got into pokémon as I didn’t like the idea of capturing creatures and forcing them to fight, but Cassette Beasts doesn’t have that problem. Oh yeah, good point about them being doubles. I do like the aesthetic/graphics and that it’s avaliable on every platform, unlike pokémon.

SC3000 was the last city builder game that could hold my attention and didn’t feel like it was constantly rushing me with no time to enjoy what I’d built. I’m sure getting older played a part in that too.

Really solid write up!

As much as I love SimCity 4, there’s something about the look and feel of 3000 that makes it slightly more iconic for me (both are fantastic though). Maxis really knocked it out of the park with most of the series.

I’ve heard that Shadows is one of the better Assassin’s Creeds, but 100%-ing it still sounds like hell. There’s just too much to do in Ubisoft openworlds.

They’ve trimmed it down a lot thankfully. The 1000s of chests and Animus fragments are gone luckily, so it’s mostly just side quests and a few small collectibles. I’m still debating whether to count de-fogging the map as part of 100% though. I at the very least want to do 100% of Steam Achievements if I decide to move on
