I will. I have nothing better to live for, this world fucking sucks and it’s not changing. I’m buying skyrim again, and I’ll have an awesome time.

Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker has some of the most fun sailing physics of any ocean game I’ve ever played.

And the physics were realistic enough that you could fill out the map before you got the ability to control the winds just by tacking the boat.

harmsy,

Ocean theme was stuck in my head the moment I saw the question.

Chesckers, do gaming w Why doesn't Steam support Android?

Maybe, just maybe, they are waiting for proton for ARM to be a thing.

Imagine having actually a big percentage of your steam games just work on android. Now that would be disruptive for the market.

If it worked like I imagine it would.

Knowing Valve, they wouldn’t wait but build the thing.

Personally, I’d be happy to have another reputable place to buy Android games that isn’t Google Play, Amazon or Epic Games.

tias,

It’s not that simple. Proton implements the Windows API functions required to run a Windows game on x64-based Linux, but it’s not a CPU emulator. Emulating x64 on ARM at the speeds required by a game is virtually impossible.

If Steam comes to ARM / Android, it would have to be a whole separate ecosystem of games. But Valve is late to the game there since we already have several players on that market, not least the standard Google Play Store.

Toes,

Emulating x64 on ARM at the speeds required by a game is virtually impossible.

This has been done and it works reasonably well on a case by case basis.

Much like protondb they have a list of confirmed broken and working games.

ZeroPoke,

Thats a possibly I didnt think of. My thought were with Deckard, ARM laptops, or possibly better mac support cause they use ARM now.

I think that’s the more likely scenario. They plan to transition their hardware to ARM processors.

Valve have supposedly been experimenting with x86 emulation on ARM for their next VR headset. So I think they might actually be well on their way to enter that market. Probably with the plan of making PC games playable on Android.

From the Depths — it’s mind-meltingly complex, graphics are mid, and takes a few liberties with physics, but it lets you build your own warships Minecraft-style, including custom cannons, missiles, and air defense.

Pretty stoked for Bannerlord’s next expansion, War Sails.

Wow that's exciting! Huge fan of Bannerlord anyway. Wishlisted and looking forward to June :)

Also Nintendo.

Abzu? Dave the diver, maybe? Dredge?

Or, this might be a might more out of left field or maybe completely stupid and not at all what you had in mind, but what about coral island? You don’t get to experience the water surface except when fishing or doing other stuff on the shore. But you get to do stuff on the bottom and there’s mermaids and stuff.

Stardew valley with a tropical island vibe. So definitely fun and immersive. Definitely more adjacent than something like sea of thieves or black flag or subnautica, but I feel like it fits better than just cause 3, imo

Ooh Coral Island sounds interesting... Wishlisted! Thanks :)

nyctre,

Glad to hear it :D

I had a lot of fun with Blackwake when it first came out, haven’t played recently though.

Sixteen times the detail!

Visstix, do games w Suggestions for a top down game that is genuinely different to all the others?

Xenonauts, part 2 is in early access

Warhammer 40k: chaos gate

Project zomboid

But yeah top down is not a genre, that’s like saying third person or first person is overcrowded.

I brought the switch version thinking " I’ll be able to play Skyrim where I want! Where I want ended up being just when I was on the toilet. Thankfully it’s free on Xbox so I don’t buy it again.

Walican132,

I grabbed it because I’d never completed the dlc and it ran better on my ps5 than my desktop.

I finally finished the main campaign on that run to. Maybe on the ps7 version I’ll get to the dlc at this rate.

Albbi, do games w Day 272 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games l've been playing

Nice screenshots.

Love this game.

Zahille7, do games w What is the best Sea based game out there in your opinion?

I haven’t played it, but there’s a game called Salt 2 that I’ve been interested in for a while.

The steam page says it’s basically an infinite ocean with different islands and such. It sounds like it might be procedurally generated, but you can customize your ship and it’s basically your mobile base and all.

Novamdomum,
@Novamdomum@fedia.io avatar

Ooh that looks really interesting. Feels a bit like a single player Sea of Thieves maybe? Also 50% off right now on Steam... nice.

Zahille7,

There’s also Atlas, which is a pirate game from a spin-off studio of the ARK devs, so a lot of those basics like taking animals and such are very similar. But in that one, you can actually build your own ship from scratch

Novamdomum,
@Novamdomum@fedia.io avatar

Just nabbed Salt 2 and it's so good already and I've only just started! I love how colourful everything is. Also, I made the mistake of going for a wander on the first island too late in the day without realising how DARK night times get. Fumbled my way to the nearest beach and managed to spawn my little raft and just about navigate back to camp. Thanks for the recommendation. I can see this is going to claim many, many hours of my life already 🤣

Gotta go with the old school here, Sid Meier’s Pirates! No water physics, graphics from 2004, etc, but so much fun that I’ve been playing it since the original came out in 1987. Hell, i was playing the 2004 remake just last week even.

Novamdomum,
@Novamdomum@fedia.io avatar

Wow... 1987! Shows that fun isn't necessarily about high end gfx :)

libra00,
@libra00@lemmy.world avatar

When I first started playing video games they were 320x200 in 4 colors, and they weren’t even good colors, they were cyan, magenta, black, and white., so yeah, I’m not that fussed about graphics.

@tal@lemmy.today avatar

If you’re super-into it, have you tried https://store.steampowered.com/app/12470/Port_Royale_2/, which also came out in 2004 and is kind of the same sort of game on the age-of-sail combat side?

libra00,
@libra00@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah I’ve played it, I preferred Pirates! because it’s more about the adventure than just endless combat. Honestly I rarely even shoot the cannons on my ship except to very occasionally chain-shot someone’s sail or grape-shot their crew before I go board the ship and win it via fencing, so I’m not even all that into the combat.

Num10ck,

you might like Jaws on the NES play it online here vimm.net/vault/?p=play&mediaId=426

Holy shit that is cancer, the audio is so bad I can’t even turn the volume on like 1%. I’m gonna go ahead and say I probably missed the boat on that one, but I appreciate the suggestion.
