PonyOfWar, do games w What level of interest do you have in "empire building" location based games?

Sounds cool. I think there is a lot of untapped potential in location based games. Games like Ingress and Pokemon Go barely scratched the surface.

moonlight,

Shadow Cities was really fun back in the day. Despite coming out so long ago, I think it was the best location based game. I'm disappointed and a bit surprised that nobody ever recreated it. Niantic tried, but they never really captured the magic of it. Pokemon go was fun for a short time, but got boring fast. I think it was a huge missed opportunity to not have actual Pokemon battles, especially PvP.

They eventually got around to it, but by that time the game was so overmonetized that getting anything good to use in PvP required a bunch of cash or all of your time grinding.

Load game… Turns out there are updates, connect to the internet, wait for it to update, then get to loading screen and want to play something else.

Full steam ahead until I beat the game. See I have just 3 achievements to earn until I have 100% completion.

They’re all “collect/perform action 1 billion times” things.

Never play again.

Have 100% in Prepare to Die Edition of Dark Souls; have not done the ones where you need to collect every spell and ring in the Remaster.

Throw Manic Miners on there. It’s a fan remake of the old Lego Rock Raiders game, and it’s really fun. There’s a custom level builder and I think there’s a browser you can search for other custom levels.

OTINOKTYAH,

Thanks for the Tip! I added it to the list!

Widelands - Settlers II inspired game, played a couple of hours, pretty neat.

FreeCIV - how can that gme be missing here? :)

UnCIV - Civ V clone, also pretty neat

OTINOKTYAH,

Thanks. I’ve added the games to the Addendum “Inspired Games”, but i think UnCIV is more a remake

Lumiluz,

I wouldn’t say Unciv is a Civ5 clone with those graphics though…

Esjott,

So remake as the website says? 🤔

Lumiluz,

I’d just say it’s an inspiration and say it’s a standard era 4x game. Graphically it’s a demake, but the cpu opponents are superior to those from V I’d say

Flamekebab,

Surely it's a clone given that it clones the game mechanics specifically? As in the rules of the game are 1:1 to Civ V, or as close as you'd need to be an expert in the game to tell the difference.

Looks like complete ass, deflect the green is the stupidest idea in gaming in a long time and those dragon segments are just an insult. Also, I’m happy Bethesda saved time and CPU cycles not baking lighting, but it got offloaded to gamers’ computers for dubious benefit. I have eyes, I see how 2016 and Eternal look, please tell me how much of a graphic improvement the endless glitching fields of darkness are. I wouldn’t buy a game for more than 15€ if it’s top notch (patient gamer here), but I don’t see myself playing this ever, it just evokes a sadness. The story of Eternal (the only game of the recent trilogy I actually liked) was a huge Marvel-caliber turd and I skipped every cutscene, so I’m not expecting anything in that department.

AC: Shadows, still enjoying it after ~28 hours. Couldn’t finish Valhalla due to it just having too much of everything, let’s see if this one’s different. Also, started playing Doom Dark Ages, seems fun!

Dusted off Raft and started a new playthrough. For all it’s upolished and unforgiving nature, it’s a good game.

The Sinking City Remastered was released last week, so I've been playing that. I'm having a lot of fun with the newly added photo mode.

Played through DOOM: The Dark Ages. It’s good, and I already wrote a wall of text elsewhere in the comments. The second half of the story is pretty bad, even for Doom standards. I wanna do another playthrough, where I change some of the difficulty sliders.

I’m loving it. But most of the people I talk to were put off by eternal. It’s more of that Soni can get people not picking it up for it’s very expensive cost currently.

HuskerNation, (edited )

Once I got adjusted to the difficulty of eternal I fell in love with it, once you realize you have to constantly stay moving and adjust on the fly it just became awesome. Still feel like the music is disjointed.

Music in dark ages just sucks

teslasaur,

The music is the best part of both games.

That says something, since both games are the best shooters over the last 10 years.
