Stellaris allows many players if you like those types of games. Only the host needs dlc if you want to pool your cash and buy some. But yeah it can be expensive.
Since you mention Paradox titles, I’d add Crusader Kings III, Europa Universalis IV, and/or Hearts of Iron 4. Same rules apply for those games’ DLC, as well.
I'd just like to provide extra emphasis on Towerfall. One of the GOAT local multiplayer games and only gets better with a third, much like Smash Brothers, Power Stone, etc.
Still on Baldur’s Gate 3. Just started my fifth or so character. An Abserd (someone multiclassing into every class) character who fools around in Honour Mode. Works surprisingly well so far and I still manage to find stuff I have never seen before.
Finished Paradise Killer early last week. I liked it a lot, it got to be pretty addicting uncovering new pieces of the mystery. Whenever I had to put the game down, I’d come back to it thinking “Oh shit, I discovered x last time I played, can’t wait to see how that pans out.” The one negative thing I’ll say is that there’s not a lot of actual detective work on the player’s part. The actual mechanics of the game are pretty much just running back and forth over the island, talking to the same characters, and chasing collectibles. But I enjoyed the loop, so it worked out.
Started up Moonlighter for a low-commitment game. I’ve played about 10 hours and enjoyed it so far. It’s got a pretty well-balanced progression loop (explore the dungeon, sell your stuff, afford a small upgrade, get a little further in the dungeon, sell your stuff…) which is a big draw for me. Not sure it’ll keep my interest to the end but I’m fond of the time I’ve spent.
Still playing Octopath Traveler, it’s alright, although with some really rough spots. I should hopefully be done soon though.
It has some neat mechanics, like hitting enemies with their weakness to eventually stun them and cause them to take more damage, but it also leads to a lot of fights (mostly against trash mobs) that take far too long, because you might not be able to exploit that weakness well or at all.
Also, as the name suggests, there are eight playable characters, with a party size of four. You might think you could easily have an A and B squad, but for some reason, one character is fixed and can’t be changed. This leads to this one character being massively higher level than the other party members at times, and because there’s no exp for inactive party members, makes keeping everyone else roughly the same level a real pain. I just had a main party and would occasionally swap in one of the lower level guys to do their story.
Speaking of story, it’s pretty boring. Every character has four chapters (dunno if there’s more for the whole group afterward) and almost all of them play out the same. Start a story with some exposition, gather intel by speaking with a few NPCs, a bit more exposition, go to a short dungeon, fight a boss, exposition, done. By the way, your whole party never shows up in the “cutscenes,” it’s always just the single character, whose story you’re doing.
Z reguly Soulseek jest moim największym przyjacielem, muzykę i tak odkrywam grzebiąc w dyskografiach, tagach na RateYourMusic albo czytając o niej tu i ówdzie, tudzież pytając znajomych co tam ostatnio wynorali. A potem to ściągam. Zwłaszcza w szukaniu rzeczy starych i niszowych slsk jest niezastąpiony.
Jak mam trochę piniondza to kupuję na bandcampie. Mimo oczywistych wad tego serwisu nie ma lepszej możliwości wspierania twórców.
Mam też spiracony Spotify z xManagera i takiegoż Tidala, bo czasem w drodze po prostu nie mam jak znaleźć danej rzeczy, albo jestem leniwa i biorę sobie co chcę. Ale nigdy nie zapłacilłabym za subskrypcję firmie która wspiera militaryzm (przeznaczając hajs na wykorzystanie AI w technologiach wojskowych), albo firmie która oszukuje twórców i okrada ich z należnego zarobku.
Muzyki slucham z kilku zrodel - YT via Invidious, lokalna biblioteka muzyki (apka Innertune, na F-Droidzie dostępna) oraz BBC Radio 1 (stream za darmo na BBC Sounds). Nie mam Spotify i sie dobrze czuje z tym.
Słucham muzyki w Spotify, niestety Premium Rodzina. Próbowałem Deezera, Tidala, ale jakoś mi to wszystko nie leży. Ogólnie walczy we mnie chęć wspierania artystów z niechęcią do wspierania korporacji i nie wiem, co z tym zrobić. Natomiast mam zbyt nieokreślony gust muzyczny, żeby wyszukiwać i robić swoje własne kolekcje muzyki do odtwarzania offline. Zacząłem słuchać metalu dopiero dwa-trzy lata temu i ciągle szukam swojego podgatunku, dlatego nawet nie wiem, co miałbym ściągać.

@nudnyekscentryk Policjancie ?? Ja poważnie pisałem. Oddanie zawartości twojego dysku konkretnej prywatnej osobie, którą znasz/poznasz osobiście mieści się w granicach dozwolonego użytku osobistego.
Nebulous Fleet Command is cool, but not finished and maybe just not my cup of tea, but definitely very much knows what it wants to be and is very good at that.
And the rest are well known good games not released this year.
