Yeah first thing that came to mind to me too. I’m hesitant whether or not they can pull of something already so successful. Anything with faster update phases would be good for the factory genre though.
I love CrossCode so much that, after playing it on GamePass, I bought the Collector’s edition just to give the devs some well deserved money. And then bought it a second time on Xbox, just to have an excuse to play it again from the beginning.
It’s got tons of exploration, puzzles, and cute characters. It’s also, like, MASSIVE. I had about 60 hours on my first playthrough, and 15 more for the DLC. And the thing is, I never got bored with it. Gameplay is snappy and always gives you new tools to try, puzzles are well-thought and actually challenge you, and the platformer/parkour elements were the cherry on top, which easily adds hours and hours of playthrough if you’re like me and want to collect every treasure in all the maps.
And despite being a huge game with tons of skills and craftable gear to choose from, I’ve never felt like the game was forcing me to check guides online or shoehorning me into a very specific build. The game rewards skill more than stats, and level ups are not really important which means that you don’t ever need to farm.
I’m patiently waiting for the next game from the same devs. CrossCode brought me back to when I was a kid and games felt fun and exciting and trusted you to learn how to use the tools at your disposal, instead of the constant hand-holding experience that I always find on modern AAA RPGs.
A friend of mine recommended the first Dragon’s Dogma to me a few years ago and convinced me to give it a try. I fell in love with the combat system, but never went too far into the game because the story, dialogues and characters were dull and insipid and gave me no reason to feel interested in the game’s world.
It’s so difficult to find good RPG games with a good story nowadays. I don’t expect DD2 to radically improve in this regard, but I hope they will at least try a bit more in the story department.
Most of the actual story wasn't funny bad, it was just unmemorable boring bad. Choice few things were funny, it almost entirely begins and ends with Caxton
I think nuclear is one of my favorite parts of the game. The process for making it and then converting the uranium waste into plutonium is massive, but feels so rewarding once it’s done. Thing is, I’m only running one plant at the moment since I still have enough power production from coal and geothermal. Figured it’d be best to keep plutonium waste to a minimum until I really start needing it, unless they add a feature to bury it. I’ve moved my plants next to the out-of-bounds area near Niagara Falls so I can store the plutonium waste in a container out-of-bounds.
Fair, turbofuel is hard one, not a lot of sulfur on the map, requires rebuilding (or starting a whole new) fuel plant, and depending where you are it may be worth going to full nuclear first. Have fun, Pioneer!
PS there is !satisfactorygame , it’s a bit dead, but when I get back into it I’ll be posting there
I don’t post much on Lemmy and am trying to decide how I want to post without just encouraging everybody to go on the big instances, and so my posts don’t disappear if an instance dies. Figured posting to my own instance and then cross-posting to a large instance and some smaller ones would be a good way to encourage growth everywhere but that’s just me overthinking as always. Tis’ an interesting experiment.
Pretty much same for me. Also you might not want to place your plutonium out of bounds. There might be an update in the future for Nuclear Waste recycling since that is ostensibly possible irl, just really expensive and not worth it atm.
I can get that. I guess the concern would be that Coffee Stain start purging/deleting anything out-of-bounds? You can see the container for the plutonium waste off in the distance a little. The power plants are half in/half-out of the out-of-bounds area.
When kid, I used to see these games (GOW, COD, battlefield,etc) and be impressed, saying to myself that i will play these great games one day but I never really had a computer or console that could be able to play these games and i lost that spark. Now, i don’t care anymore.
If you still feel that joy and happiness seeing these games enjoy this sensation, because it will one day dissappear.
Priorities will always shift as we move though the different seasons of life, and for sure the launch of a big marquee title that I’m interested in doesn’t have the same drama it did, now that I’ve lived though a couple-few decades of them. I have to say, though, that I still love the experience of being transported to a fantasy setting, or exploring a strange new world with friends, or testing my skill against other players. I’m looking forward to when I can introduce the hobby to my kid, and share that joy with him.
Take that up with Games Workshop I guess. The average Space Marine does wear one. Rule of cool I guess. That nonsense has been seeping into other races figurines now, and it is stupid imo.
Characters faces are sometimes shown to humanize the character, to help the player feel closer to the character, so the player is not confused about who that character is, etc.
Sometimes the character model uses the likeness of a real person, and the contract with that person dictates that the face must be visible for all or a large portion of the gameplay.
