Project Zomboid is one of my favorite games of all time!

Zombie games never really appealed to me, but this does seem fun!

It’s a bit like the Sims 1 meets a Zombie game. It’s a good time. I’d recommend giving it a try if you can

Can switch emulators emulate switch 2 titles?

No. Absolutely nothing on that front so far. Not even slightly close!

This post is spam guys. Account literally made 2 hours ago and posts nonsense with a disguised link attached.

Goes without saying but you probably shouldn’t click this dude’s link

Give Newgrounds a go maybe, lots of games. Varying quality, but it’s unburdened by the disappointments of modern browsing.

Or grab an emulator app and play some real games. Back to your roots. My mid tier phone can run PS2 easily.

gamedrop,

That gamedrop site’s pretty useful too.

mysticpickle,

It’s a spammer bro.

@hankskyjames777@thebrainbin.org avatar

ESH. Those suggested aren't even as promising as Roblox, but im feeling afraid as I tell you the only closest one I found is https://github.com/openblox

  • Godot - where can we get the games from? I mean The Mirror (on Mastodon: /u/themirrorgdp@mastodon.gamedev.place) uses it, but they scrapped it in favor of making their own engine
  • Minetest - it's a Minecraft clone, but they stopped being it out of fear of being sued by Mojang/M$
  • Minecraft - it's a standalone game, NOT a game platform
  • GMod - A no-go unless you have money for it.

I got Necesse too! It was about 6 bucks. Can’t beat that price. Runs on a potato also.

Korhaka,

I should play that again, probably start a new world/char because so much has changed since I got it almost 4 years ago.

  • Reviews are mixed: not a great start

Agreed, puts a damper on everything else that follows.

  • Requires 3rd-party account: fuck that

Also agreed. If I buy a Steam game, I’d generally much rather it be accessible through Steam and do not appreciate when games are sold on Steam for other platforms.

  • 60 euros base game: expensive, especially when the game has mixed reviews

Not the worst price, but yeah I’d definitely expect a much better review score to justify that price. In the absence of a good review score this would be something I’d have to know I’m going to enjoy before I’d consider buying it full price.

  • 175 euros DLC’s: are you fucking kidding me? On top of 60 euros for the base game, there’s another 175 fees for content?

I don’t know for certain about this particular game, but I do know people were shitting on Monster Hunter: Rise for the exact same reason: a seemingly exorbitant amount of DLC available from release implying it’s a cash grab and just trying to milk more cash out of the player.

That being said, in my opinion MHR wasn’t even half as bad as the naysayers would have you believe. MHR on release on Steam had a lot of DLC, sure, but it didn’t launch on Steam. It launched on the Switch then later was ported to Steam with all of the same DLC they had worked on since its launch a year prior.

Almost all of the DLC was exclusively cosmetic skins, and almost all of those were part of bundles available for significantly cheaper prices than each one individually. I don’t recall the exact prices but I believe it was something like buy 10 skins individually for $2/ea or buy all of them in a bundle for $5. The real price for any sane person for all 10 skins would be $5, but this showed up on Steam as 11 DLC items with a total of $25. Multiply this by the 6-10 ish bundles they had on the title’s release on Steam to get a huge quantity of items and a massively inflated price compared to what anyone who wanted everything would realistically pay, assuming they paid attention.

I don’t know that CoD is doing a similar thing here, and I certainly wouldn’t give them the benefit of the doubt, but I dislike this argument against them because it can be very misleading.

  • purchasable CoD points: so pay to win?

Not necessarily P2W, but yeah I’m not a fan of MTX either and again wouldn’t give CoD the benefit of the doubt to have a good or fair monetization model.

Never heard of this game but it looks neat! I appreciate good construction and those player boards with the inset tiles look really slick.

AwesomeLowlander,

It’s #3 on BGG! Sadly those double layer player boards aren’t part of the base game though.

Aaah well, that’s too funny. Guess that shows how disconnected I am from the community haha. 🤣

I’m SO relieved!!! I enjoyed the first one more than most people. At the time I was in a rut where most video games were not enjoyable or fun. Then the first game came out and I felt alive again from the SECOND the music started on the title screen!

I’ve been looking forward to the second one for years and I’m so relieved that Microsoft didn’t fuck it up.

I’m taking it as it was mostly completed by the time Microsoft bought them, the story and everything had already been decided, so hopefully an easy win for Obsidian. Future titles started under Microsoft though… idk

I enjoyed the first planet but the ones after that didn’t feel as good.

Why would anybody support genocidal imperial propaganda in their home?

I made that mistake years ago with COD. Never again.
