Divers is a game I really want to get back into. I’ve put so much time in most of the games but kinda bounced off divers. I think trying to play it so soon after porgy made me oceaned out lol. But this has inspired me to give it another shot!
The game starts out kinda tough so no surprise you bounced off. I took my time to learn how elemental resistances work and write down what resistances different enemies have and the game clicked. It was very satisfying to finally be able to destroy piranhas after they harassed my young adventurers for so long~
Not sure if they are on sale or not but a few staple RTS games that are definitely worth checking out imo:
Command and Conquer series
Age of Empires specifically 2 and 4
Supreme Commander (with the Forged Alliance expansion)
Probably way more, RTS isn’t a major staple of what I play but these titles are pretty diverse and will give a good taste of some of the genres best IMO. Of course Starcraft as well but I don’t think that’s on steam.
Crusader Kings III, it isn’t exactly an RTS but it’s on a sale, and I consider it a must have due to it’s vast amount of mods. I always end up playing in Tamriel with the Elder Kings II mod or in Westeros with the A Game of Thrones mod
Thinking of Relic, looks like Homeworld remastered is <$4 cad and I’ve heard amazing things about that series, might have to grab it myself, the DoW series are easily my favourite RTS games.
I’ve tried a few space RTS games, and it’s not my favorite. They tend to be extremely slow paced to simulate the vastness of space. At super low prices it can be worth it to try out, but it’s definitely a different experience to consuming a map with an ork waaaagh.
There are a couple of mystery games that are available in early access/beta that already use LLM AI to generate dialogue.
I’ve messed with 1 and it’s The problem with it is mostly in how it doesn’t necessarily regurgitate the info it knows into something coherent and logical to actually solve the mystery. That or they never ever tell you the truth. Since the only way to solve the mystery is by talking to NPCs to get enough info to piece the puzzle out, it often leads to unsolveable mysteries.
Now, if that problem with LLMs could be fixed, so it isn’t conflagrating multiple pieces of data into something new and novel, I think it would be awesome for making game worlds that are more alive and natural. Like instead of walking up to an NPC and clicking “rumors” you can actually just talk to them like a real person and they would respond in kind, as if the NPC was actually a person living in that world. It’s really the only thing I think would actually work well with generative AI chat bots, but the generative AI still has too many problems to make it truly viable.
It actually works better with trying to play D&D, because even IRL, players often misinterpret rules and argue. Which you genuinely have when trying to play with 3 AI characters.
