I did not realize this game was this well known! It has a super low player peak and at least last time I looked after I first played it years ago no big YouTube channels had a let’s play of it either.
Our Adventuring Guild doesn’t look like much on its cover but it scratches all the management sim and tactics RPG urges that I enjoy, while also having some surprisingly cute writing (while still mainlining the classic fantasy RPG themes)
Picked this one up on a whim from a summer sale discovery queue and it’s been such a delightful surprise! I’ll second scratching the RPG and tactics itch, just wish I had more free time in my life right now because the game is turn based crack for me.
Bonus points for being a Unity game which makes it technically moddable (even if the developer has no plans of adding official support for it).
Throwing in Tactical Breach Wizards, because it just came out and has very similar trun based tactics vibes, but with more sarcastic/ absurd humor that you’d expect from Heat Signature or Gun Point (on account of being from the same developer).
Automachef is the most unique factory game I’ve ever played. You make factories to handle food orders, try to reuse as many parts as possible to save cost, figure out how to handle massive rush hour mobs without burning too much power or dropping orders, and so on.
Down the line, this game has its own coding language for controlling machines and handling orders. It’s got a puzzle campaign, and a whole contracts mode, all around a good time. You can make VERY tight factories, especially with late game tech.
VoxeLibre, what started out as a Minecraft clone is now trying to go it’s own way. Does what it says on the tin. Being not quite MC gives it something fresh, yet familiar imo.
D-Day Normandy is a Quake 2 total conversion mod that is a standalone game. Our website is currently reduced to a forum, but we hope to get that back on track soon. The admin is currently unavailable… Anyways, WW2 FPS from around 2000. Class-based, objective or fraglimit (or both in some maps). Runs on everything these days. We have a couple servers worldwide, more info on ddaydev.com.
But so much other content, from books (High Republic and other novels) to games (Jedi and Battlefront) to other movies (Rogue One, Solo) and shows (Andor, Ahsoka, Mandalorian, Bad Batch, Clone Wars) have been mostly amazing.
Star Wars is only “dead” if you live in that artificial negative hellhole the online community created.
Most of what you’ve listed haven’t been great to put it lightly.
I’m tired of the Internet trying to gaslight me into thinking that Star Wars is doing well when it’s not. The past few shows/ movies that have come out have basically been:
“Creator” gets hired that knows nothing about Star Wars and wants to make their own thing under the Star Wars brand,
new thing flops,
“Creator” blames the fans.
What makes The High Republic books, Ahsoka, The Mandalorian and The Bad Batch amazing? What about “gems” like The Acolyte, The Book of Boba Fett and Kenobi which I’m sure most people have forgotten about? Are they amazing?
Star Wars is only alive if you live in the artificial consumerist hellhole that the online community created.
Dave Feloni, the producer behind Mando, Boba Fett, and Ahsoka isn’t some outsider who knows nothing. He was the producer of the Clone Wars and Rebels, and has a deep love of the franchise and its lore. In fact, what alienate many people about his shows are that they are so incredibly respectful of what came before that newcomers don’t follow it.
To understand everything in Ahsoka you needed to be familiar with so much lore that wasn’t in the films that it felt more like homework to understand for some viewers.
Dave Feloni is a clown. If you are familiar with the lore you end up being more pissed off with how he fumbles it. This is especially true if your a fan of Thrawn, Boba Fett or the Mandalorians.
There are plenty of shows that are still entertaining without knowing the lore. How can you claim that Feloni is respectful of the source material when he’s turned light sabers into non lethal weapons, given Mando a ship that doesn’t fit with his role as a bounty hunter, or how he’s turned Thrawn into an idiot?
Martha Is Dead is a grim psychological triller about twin sisters, set in Italy at the end of WW2. It’s not about war, however. This game left me with deep emotions no other game could do. Heed the warnings given by authors, though. It may come too disturbing to some people.
A deck construction game where the cards you choose to put in the deck are the challenges you will face on your run. You unlock more cards by completing challenges on the cards you have.
You can skip the first one and play the sequel, it’s more polished.
Severed Steel is a single-player FPS featuring a fluid stunt system, destructible voxel environments, loads of bullet time, and a unique one-armed protagonist. It’s you, your trigger finger, and a steel-toed boot against a superstructure full of bad guys. Chain together wall runs, dives, flips, and slides to take every last enemy down.
I manually searched for the SteamDB and ProtonDB links for this game on Google, copied the link, selected the “SteamDB” text in the comment textbox and pasted with the Ctrl+V shortcut. Same with game name. Lemmy did Markdown itself 🙃
