This is a fun series, but has been getting increasingly bizarre, even by its own standards.
I kinda wish they put a little bit more effort into the anime (overhead wires, signals, correct tracks, etc.) but the fact that it all takes place after the 7G event makes these issues handwaveable.
The Elder Kings 2 mod for Crusader Kings 3 is pretty amazing. It lets you roleplay in the Elder Scrolls universe, but instead of a Skyrim-style rpg, it’s a grand strategy game with intricate political and relationship mechanics.
I really enjoyed The Last Days of the Third Age, a lord of the rings TC for Mount and Blade: Warband.
It takes Warband’s medieval lord sim and focuses hard on the warfare side of things with lots of huge battles on giant maps, but even tiny skirmishes can affect a faction’s strength. (And with so many factions on both sides of the War of the Ring, you need to pick what to focus on)
I’m not adding anything new, but I wanted to agree with others saying playing in bursts is fine. I would suggest at least 1 hour, if not more. If you don’t have an hour just wait till you do. I played it in burst, but there is so much to read that a shorter amount of time won’t do it justice.
Definitely worth playing. Multiple times too. I played my first go one way and now I’m playing a completely different Tequila Sunrise.
There are several good total conversions for Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion. Star Trek Armada 3 is the most complete overhaul I’ve played for it. I’m a big fan of Halo spaceships and the Sins of the Prophets mod is the closest thing I’ve seen capture the asynchronous battle between UNSC and Covenant ships. There are others for Star Wars and Stargate that I hear are good, but I have not tried them.
Nice, thank you. This should be very helpful in case I won’t have time to play at all. Which is what sometimes happen, life is life, so you never know…
Albion online seems like a good fit for you, although based on your location your ping will massively vary since they only have a few centralised servers.
i haven’t played it that much since my ping was atrocious, but i would say no. IIRC beside membership and cosmetics that you can buy with gold, i think you can covert it into silver which you can use to progress faster and even buy gear but you won’t gain an unfair advantage or get something that’s exclusive to the MTX shop.
you should read what experienced players have written if you want a more detailed explanation, im just sort of vaguely familiar with the game.
Pretty much the same as PLEX in Eve. If that was p2w for you, then this will be p2w for you too.
Actually come to think of it, it’s worse in the regard that gold prices have an impact on the game. The lower the conversion rate of gold to silver drops below 1:5000 the higher the global discount on repairs, travel, islands etc.
I mean… in eve you were allowed to straight up buy perfect characters or skill injectors, then the isk to buy a ship. So you could have a newbie with the same character power as a 3 year old player.
My brain does not like grinding games with strong P2W aspects, it messes with me.
Brain says bad. Because I’ll be there, working on trying to get a new shiny ship and then the brain is like… “You make 40$ an hour overtime. That’s a lot more ship than doing this.” or "instead of checking in on your skill queue every day for two years to make sure it’s optimal $300 worth of plex and you have your dream toon. "
And yeah… I know myself. I need to avoid games that make that lil voice pop up.
Albion has “skill injectors” too. There are tradeable tomes with which, if you were to spend enough money on it, you could almost max your character.
Keep in mind I’m just trying to paint you a picture here, so you can decide whether it fits for you. I’d still recommend trying Albion. It’s a small install and free to try after all.
Yeah, the hardware in a console is mass produced, the hardware in an arcade cabinet is made in relatively small batches. Mass producing something is always a lot cheaper per unit due to economies of scale.
Not all of them. In recent years, virtually all arcades have been powered by standard gaming PCs (see for example the infamous Half-Life 2 arcade). In the past, it wasn’t unheard of for some arcades to have nearly identical hardware compared to home consoles. The Neo Geo arcade for example is running the exact same code as the home console (although in this case, the arcade came first). There have also been edge-cases, like the Namco System 11, which is using only slightly modified PS1 hardware (primarily in the sound department) in order to drive down costs.
