hitagi, do games w RimWorld - Odyssey expansion and update 1.6 out now!

I like how these trailers are always like “I want more” then everything becomes chaotic. The gameplay does feel like that.

I played the base game a lot (many hundreds of hours, also before it was released on Steam). I think I’ve only tried the royalty DLC.

On one hand I want to get back into Rimworld, on the other hand the mechanics from all the DLCs seem overwhelming.

Sasquatch,

Yeah all of them together is a lot,but you can disable them before wkrldgen i think

SkaveRat,

can disable them before wkrldgen i think

yup. And even if you enable them, a lot of the stuff can just be ignored. Don’t like royalty? Just don’t follow royalty quests. Don’t like unimaginable horrors beyond comprehension? Don’t poke around weird haunted areas of the map

Dashi,

I’ve tried all DLCs except odyssey. Unfortunately I’ve been away for the past couple of days, it looks amazing. I would recommend biotech DLC if you are looking for a suggestion. It’s very player driven in it’s consumption. You don’t need to play a genetically altered vampire mechanitor lord. You can just play with mechs and dip your toe into it. Maybe mess around with some genetics later in the play through. To be honest I still have not fully played a successful vampire run. It doesn’t appeal to me as much

Ideology adds flavor to your plauthrough and can make your playthrough infinitely easier as drugged up, cannibal, raiders or infinitely harder as secular, tree hugging, ranchers that need to cut down trees for their sky lantern festivals but worship trees and get upset when they cut trees down. Not that I accidentally did that at all.

Anomaly is a horror expansion that adds more events and a little to the base game. It’s under royalty in my recommendation.

I will admit, your recommendation makes me want to play Rimworld with he new DLCs. :)

Dashi,

There is a lot of new stuff. I’m looking forward to playing odyssey because we get to visit more maps. Who cares if my toxifier generator pollutes the area of I’m leaving in 10 days :D

I wonder what will happen with Save our Ship 2 now that ships are in the main game

Aermis,

I don’t think all of the mod features are included in the odyssey update. A ship is one thing, but sos2 looked like it added TONS of content that odyssey didn’t cover.

Is this any good?

JackDark,

It was okay. Nothing exciting, but one aspect of it that I did like is that you can choose to watch your choices happen in real time after you finish a level, which - although not the smoothest - does actually make it feel like John Wick just rolled through.

Likely Cause: Licensing Expiration

MrNesser, do games w John Wick Hex will be removed from sale on all platforms beginning July 17th, 2025

How come it’s getting removed?

duchess,

Expired movie license probably.

Psythik,

Too much work to simply swap out the assets and change the character’s name with a patch?

duchess,

Maybe someone made the calculations and the projected profits from a re-published, license-stripped version are lower than the estimated costs.

RiQuY, do games w John Wick Hex will be removed from sale on all platforms beginning July 17th, 2025

Friendly reminder to sign the StopKillingGames petition to avoid bullshit like this in the future.

www.stopkillinggames.com

Prunebutt,

While I agree with the sentiment: It won’t be killed, “just” de-listed from sale. If you buy it now, you can still p/ay it.

Although an end-of-life plan would probably make it easier for the publishers to still sell the game after licences expire.

RiQuY,

Delisting a game goes against the point of game preservation. The trick of “buy it now to keep it” sounds like FOMO.

iamtherealwalrus,

You think publishers should not be allowed to decide when they want to stop selling their goods?

Prunebutt,

It’s still not what the initiative is asking for (in the EU)

duchess,

Why did you write „play“ like this?

Prunebutt,

Typo

czl,

While everyone should sign it, the campaign is about publishers that kill games that could conceivably remain working.

De-listing is likely a result of expired licensing or similar, and I don’t think it’s feasible (or realistic) to require companies to renew licenses in perpetuity just to keep selling games.

duchess,

People should learn to read more than the name of the petition.

Railcar8095,

“Stop Killing Games” is a consumer movement started to challenge the legality of publishers destroying video games they have sold to customers. An increasing number of video games are sold effectively as goods - with no stated expiration date - but designed to be completely unplayable as soon as support from the publisher ends. This practice is a form of planned obsolescence and is not only detrimental to customers, but makes preservation effectively impossible. Furthermore, the legality of this practice is largely untested in many countries.

People should read the petition before being snarky and wrong.

duchess,

What you have quoted is not what’s happening to John Wick Hex. People who bought it can still download and play it.

Railcar8095,

Yes, I know. That’s why I quoted that part, to show what stop killing games is about, for those who don’t understand.

Aielman15,
@Aielman15@lemmy.world avatar

John Wick Hex has been sold as a completed product and will remain playable (for people who have already bought it, and people who track down a physical copy) even after the publisher pulls the plug. This is not planned obsolescence, their license for the movie rights has expired.

Stop Killing Games has NOTHING to do with this.

Railcar8095,

Agree. Maybe I didn’t make myself clear, but that’s my point

Aielman15,
@Aielman15@lemmy.world avatar

Oh, I’m very sorry, it’s my fault. I misinterpreted your comment.

Railcar8095,

It’s OK, I think I misunderstood somebody else and it seems I was disagreeing with an OK comment too

GeneralEmergency,

G*mers aren’t known for being smart enough to read.

nogooduser, do games w John Wick Hex will be removed from sale on all platforms beginning July 17th, 2025

I “own” this on PlayStation. Will I still be able to download it after 17th?

Edit: I just read the article and it says that we will.

naticus, (edited ) do games w John Wick Hex will be removed from sale on all platforms beginning July 17th, 2025

Just a heads up that if you try buying from Humble, they have no keys right now for this game. It’s very possible we’ll never get them with the impending delist.

https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/3b7eee2f-37bd-4246-ae34-360a660d8618.png

mic_check_one_two,

Yeah, Humble has been spiraling, and this is one of the largest symptoms. If they’re out of stock, they shouldn’t be allowed to list the game for sale. It’s particularly bad on their Humble Choice offers, where trying to claim after Day 1 often ends up with half of the keys listed as out of stock.

naticus,

Interesting, I haven’t had that experience with Humble Choice. Sometimes I don’t redeem for a week or more and I still manage to get keys. Was there any particular game that you had this issue with?

BobDendry,
@BobDendry@masto.fediverse.games avatar

I have the issue from time to time if I go and bulk redeem like 6 months of keys cause I forgot Humble existed, but I usually get an email telling me the key is ready within a day or so.

Not sure they'll end up getting keys for John Wick Hex sadly. We'll see though.

naticus,

Yeah I’m considering buying it on Steam directly with the plan of refunding if I get a code from Humble.

Fredthefishlord,

Aren’t they a charity?

abbotsbury,
@abbotsbury@lemmy.world avatar

Always redeem (or sell) your Humble keys ASAP people

https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/c81d0556-cfb0-4998-b1f2-bae2d2944ee4.png

naticus,

Yeah I tried to redeem within 2 min of buying. They are selling this without any keys in their system.

It’s on my wishlist, but don’t want to buy on full price, but also don’t want to buy for PC…

Blackmist, do games w John Wick Hex will be removed from sale on all platforms beginning July 17th, 2025

Makes me wonder if he could just rip the branding from it, alter the character a bit and stick it out again.

I’d definitely consider John Dick’s Hex

Is it worth picking up before it’s removed?

Looks like you still can't adjust the font size with either ctrl+/ctrl- or directly in the settings. At least the larger pages will increase the font size slightly on larger screens.

Steam: the billion dollar storefront failing to implement an insanely common accessibility feature browers have had for 20 yrs.

seralth,

To be fair it’s not a browser it’s a store front. Lol
