GTA V offline, of all things. Haven’t played it in years and found out its carpool grew quite a lot, matching the forza games and currently scratching my itch for an offline open world car game with a crapton of cars.
I have been espousing its merits so much that I surely look like a shill but check out Motor Town as a low poly open world driving game that centers on supply chains of deliveries and basically GTA side job driving quests fleshed out to an entire genre with pizza delivery on mopeds, box vans delivering packages, garbage trucks, taxi drivers delivering urgent passengers as fast as possible, tow truck jobs and tractor trailer jobs etc….
The physics and driving feel are superb (very realistic unlike GTA V not that GTA V’s driving isn’t a blast), and there is a diversity of vehicles from a wide variety of sports cars to pretty much any type of work vehicle you can think of. You can tweak, tune and engine swap to turn basically any of them into a fire breathing metal box that transports you as fast as possible to utter ruin. You can play multiplayer collaborating with others on deliveries or just play singleplayer.
It’s early access but it’s got a demo so check it out! If you are anything like me you will throw your fists in the air and angrily shout why nobody has made a game like this for you before lol when you try it. I know it doesn’t look like a racing game but you can absolutely play everything in the game except bus driving like a racing game (and you can just have AI do the bus driving if you want to do bus stuff).
Tooling along in a semi with a trailer at 80mph on a windy country road and plowing cars out of the way like soccer balls for fun has never felt so good in a video game.
It was BG3 still with Palworld, but enough of my friends started playing and we made a dedicated private server. It’s now consuming me. I’m sure the obsession with subside in a bit, but right now it’s just dumb fun. Currently riding around on a panda mount duel weilding rocket launches and just laying everything to waste.
Yep, I get that. The poorly functioning building, pathfinding issues for pals in base and the lack of endgame makes it that we parked it for now and will circle back when the devs had time to figure out their next moves, and if they don’t end up escaping to some tropical island with their earnings it will be fun in a year.
Me too, but I’m not too impressed. I mean it looks great and all, but the gameplay is a bit monotonous. Maybe it caters more to fans who actually care about the story and characters.
So I’m throwing some Deep Rock Galactic missions into the mix. I’ve met a player in their first ever mission and tagged along to help out a bit and now we’re playing a lot together and it’s great fun.
Modern Assassin’s Creed games in a nutshell. Played Origins, it kept trying to convince me that stealth mattered but as long as you can time your dodges you can just run an army through. You’d clear areas a lot faster than sneaking around, too.
Stealth has always been optional in Assassin’s Creed. The modern games have a lot of problems (the series really hasn’t been good since Black Flag) but that one in particular isn’t new. Trying to be stealthy makes every mission take twice as long, but imo it also makes them more fun.
So true. I’ve had to leave games/communities I absolutely love because of the male gamers that can’t act with a modicum of adult, and the majority of others won’t call them out on that behaviour.
Props to the communities that do welcome and treat us gals as fellow gamers.
To be fair, GTA 5 is in a fictional version of LA, in a fictional California. California has state funded free medical insurance. Which is great for when you get shot in a drive-by or at school; just like the game!
I knew a co-worker who was really into a lot of early and more modern text adventure games. He said the babelfish puzzle was one of the hardest puzzles put in any text adventure game, past or present.
