I’ve been jumping around between BG3, Control and Moonring. I highly recommend Moonring for anyone looking for a modern old school style rpg. It’s completely free too
Got around to finishing all endings for Lunacid. It’s inspired by kings field, which I never played, but I really enjoyed my time with Lunacid. Highly recommend anyone to check it out if you are looking for a first person dungeon crawl.
I also completed the campaigns in Age of Mythology again. Played through that game so many times growing up it was nice to load it up and feel nostalgic for a time.
Can you tell me how it compares to Subnautica if you’ve played it? I’ve been looking for something that scratches that very particular itch that Subnautica hit so well, and so far I just don’t like the aimlessness of the other survival/crafting games I’ve played. Subnautica’s purposeful progression really hit the sweet spot.
I keep trying No Man’s Sky, but after 2 years I finally figured out why it never clicks for more than a few hours at a time: it’s essentially a live service game, which for some reason I never recognized. It throws all its updates at you immediately, which destroys any real sense of earned progression in some ways, and its economy is designed for frequent and persistent play and multiplayer, so if you’re just playing casually, progress is sloggy as hell in other ways. And there’s just a thousand discovered things to do at all times, it’s overwhelming. It’s my fault for misunderstanding, but I’ve been trying to play it like I played Subnautica, and that’s just not what this is.
The closest I’ve come so far to recreating the Subnautica magic was Dysmantled, which is a totally different game in a lot of ways but really terrific in its own right. Looking forward to their next game, Dysplaced, next year.
Anyway, I’ve had my eye on The Forest lately. Waiting for a sale, wondering if it will fit the bill.
The Forest should be on sale (just checked, it’s $5 on Steam until Nov 28), and it’s somewhat Subnautica-like. There’s a definite horror element to it, though, so in that way, it’s a different experience, but you still do the “find food, find water, build a base, craft tools” thing.
I don’t think it’s as good as Subnautica, but for $5, it’s still a fun experience, and there is an ongoing story/quest to give you something to focus on. I sank 8 hours into it in the first two days, and there’s still a ton to uncover, so I think it’s worth a play.
Thanksgiving and family visiting kinda threw me for a loop as far as gaming goes, but for Diablo 4: Season 2 I managed to move into the Champion chapter at the beginning of the week before anyone showed up. I'm finally in World Tier 4, so I'll be working on that when I have more time.
