Chill vibes. Sometimes you want to play videogames but don’t want a stressful time.
Osmos or Dorfromantik for me ❤️
But yeah… Other people read a book. Nobody complains that they’re just turning pages for hours. Nothing wrong with (merging those media and) enjoying whatever you like.
Never understood how this is an argument when reading for fun exists. Specifically when comparing visual novels to books, books don’t tend to have pictures, scenarios, music, sound effects or voice acting. Sometimes reading a book isn’t interesting enough on its own and folks want more.
I can understand liking a game but not liking all the dialogue, I remember Mass Effect 3 had an option for Story, Action or RPG mode and it’d be great if more devs would implement that kinda thing instead of forcing one specific playstyle.
Sometimes this happens in a middle of a combat, with the combat music playing, enemies in front of me, character is in low health, and I gotta read a conversation and the only button I can press is A.
I only have the new one, that was made for VR. It can be played in flat space, but you can tell they did very little to make it work. The text is so small on a regular screen I can’t read a god damn thing.
I never played the original, but I suspect it’s probably better in every way except for the visuals (other than having readable text I mean).
Dwarf Fortress is my favorite game of all time now, though. It’s not old, but it just uses ASCII or tilesets. And I’ve been playing since version 3, using the default ASCII because I think it looks more interesting than the tiles.
For a business that already have many screens for showing queue and pushes their app to order stuff, on-phone controls in-app and a timer set to when food get prepared with some delay can be a banger. Also, gifts for the winners and leaderboards. I don’t use them, but it would sure be way funnier than clickers I saw in some of them, especially if people in a queue could just jump into a game at any point, with no start or finish conditions, like in an endless arena shooter deathmatch where you joon, you frag, you log off to your burger. Less waiting anger, more rhytm to the fast-food conveyor, more customer loyalty. Ah, and kids want you to order again to make a rematch.
The launcher (GOG Galaxy) is entirelly optional, so I don’t use it at all and just download the installers for my games (and keep local copies in an external HD in my NAS).
One of the most modable games ever if you know what you’re doing. In the install I have on my pc the only original file remaining is the .exe, its closer to 20Gb rather than the original 750Mb. Unfortunately the old mod repository died years ago, I have some backed up plus the ones I wrote but its maybe 1% of what was out there.
One neat thing is how robust the engine is, throw it enough power and it has no issue with huge models, or breaking universe.
Some old screenshots I found: imgur.com/a/FILLe0n(Pic uploader seems to be down unfortunately)
I don’t have many of the raw mods anymore, but I do have a ton of modified versions in my install of the game. Mostly modified from me moving around hard points and adjusting parameters to improve balance. I could probably share my entire install somehow, I’m pretty sure it’ll work out of the box on most computers at least up to Windows 10.
