The world of Warcraft Legion expansion had a pretty neat rogue hideout. Flash your members coin to a shop owner and he opened the hidden passageway to our subterranean lair. Luckily when khadgar ripped up the entire city and teleported it to a new floating home in the sky he brought the basement too.
I enjoy how all of the thieves guilds in ESO are these gigantic caves directly under every city. If ES6 doesn’t have multiple cities destroyed by thieves guild sink holes I’m going be upset.
got a chance to try lethal company on steam - it’s a really fun online co-op horror roguelike where you scavenge for parts on moons that may or may not be inhabited. corporate doesn’t care what’s in these caves as long as it makes them money. great with friends or randoms, the proximity chat makes for a fun and scary experience with a drg / viscera cleanup style corporate setting.
also played through most of greener grass awaits, which is a unique and fun horror golf game - also free. i recommend at least trying it out, the horror gameplay elements mesh with the golf in a novel way that makes for a rare horror game with engaging moment to moment gameplay.
HL3 and TES VI will never release. Those are pipe dreams. I’m going with GTA VI, because I think Take Two Interactive disclosed in their Form 10-K that they had a major IP releasing at the end of calendar 2024. For context, the SEC really doesn’t like it when firms fuck around on those forms.
We more or less got HL3 in Half Life: Alyx. People can deride it for "not being a real Half Life game" because they personally don't like VR or something, but it's pretty much HL3
I struggled with The Outer Worlds’ really ham fisted centrism. While it’s been awhile, I remember the best result on every major planet was to find compromise between the two factions. It’s done so clumsily that it makes none of the factions feel authentic in any way.
I agree with this, and it contributed to my losing interest. I also found the gameplay way too stale and stopped playing when I was almost done with the 3rd world.
I didn’t feel invested in or care about any of the companions or their story arcs either. They didn’t feel relatable or like real people.
I had high hopes for the Outer Worlds, but it just felt generic and boring to me. It felt like a cross between Fallout New Vegas and Borderlands, but without the charm of either franchise.
Showerthough: Since this wasn’t actually a random person, what if we had a system where I genuinely ask a random person what they think of XYZ? Like speed-dating for games opinions.
