You could try to use a VPN and make a US steam account, then that might allow you to buy the game

Thank you for your suggestion! :D But please be careful with buying games on Steam through VPNs, because that can actually get your Steam account permabanned. I don’t know if you can avoid that with creating a new account though, just be careful with main accounts.

The South Park games are fun, I liked Stick of Truth more than Fractured But Whole but they're both enjoyable and funny if you like that kind of humor

Playing Starfield, very fun so far but man it is demanding on my graphics card, barely holding 30 fps.

Also playing project zomboid with friends making our way to louisville.

Still on a space game kick. Finished up Freelancer and started playing No Man’s Sky’s recent “Voyagers” expedition. It’s still got over a month left so I highly recommend checking it out if you haven’t played the game in a while. Just to see whats new; It’s come a long way.

And picked up Hardspace: Shipbreaker on sale for when NMS starts getting monotonous.

Ashtear,

Ooh, was this your first time with Freelancer? It’s amazing that it’s twenty years later and it might still be the benchmark for non-HOTAS space sims.

I enjoyed Shipbreaker much more than I thought I would. Not typically my style of gameplay, but the setting is fantastic.

Seathru,

No, I played it at release and was HOOKED. I remember clearing a 3 day holiday weekend so I could play through the whole thing (for the second or third time) in one sitting.

I had somehow missed that a HD remaster was released a couple years ago, so I gave it a shot and got sucked right back in. Still a fantastic game, even if the cut scenes and voice acting are a little dated.

For anyone who hasn’t played it, it’s abandonware now.

Are you using a VPN? Your ISP may be blocking them.

spiritedpause,

I’m in the US, and as far as I know, ISPs only block websites if the federal government mandates it, in which case all ISPs would have to block it.

ArcaneSlime,

Not necessarily, they can block stuff if they want and some don’t like torrenting. Typically they just limit your speeds and send ineffective letters rather than block the site though, so it would still be weird.

Make sure your mullvad config is called wg0.conf in ./config.

FrostyCaveman,

I do this except with github.com/qdm12/gluetun

(which apparently also can be used as a k8s sidecar container, am gonna try this soon as well)

christophski,

I’m trying this and it seems to be running. If I run curl 127.0.0.1:9091 I get a 403 which is expected but if I try to access the same from another computer on the network then the connection times out, any idea what could be the cause?

coaxil,

Oh yes, got your password :p

Mass Effect Andromeda! I just played through the ‘Legendary Edition’ of the trilogy, and despite what I’d heard about Andromeda, I couldn’t resist it at under $4 at GameStop.

…and I’m actually enjoying it a lot!

I wonder if it might actually get better reviews if it were released today. We’re more used to open worlds, and it’s less expected that you’d try to finish every little quest line you are presented with (‘Oh, don’t do that - that’s just for people who really like collecting things!’), and more expected that you’d jump around between places and not ‘complete’ one area before going on to another.

I’m not really seeing the problem with facial animations that some reviewers complain very loudly about - and some people online say rendered the game ‘unplayable’. Maybe I’m just not attuned to see it? Or maybe they updated it after release?

@ampersandrew@kbin.social avatar

They did update it after release, but having not played it myself, I got the sense that it was never fully fixed.

Surprising lack of Armored Core 6 in here. Has everyone just beaten it already, or did it get overshadowed by Baldur’s Gate and Starfield.

Just finished first playthrough last night, and maybe halfway through my second now.

ampersandrew,
@ampersandrew@kbin.social avatar

There are just too many good games this year. Some of them won't make the cut when we've only got so much time and several of the best games of the year each take 100 hours to finish. Armored Core isn't making the cut for me this year.

ezures, do games w What are some good funny games/mods out there?

Its a bit extreme, but crack-life for half-life. You know there are some people saying they get brain rot from memes? This is like the bottom of a sinkhole for your iq. Every sound is some random effect, the wortigons have afros, the headcrabs are British, your hud is in webdings, the soldiers speak in old tts and the smg has infinite fast firing grenade launcher.

Is a lot, and while you are lost in a word where nothing makes sense, you are losing your ass off. If that’s isn’t enough, there’s a standalone mod, that’s even stupider, even bigger, even more bizarre.

But it’s probably not for everyone, its very 2000 edgy humor, so if it’s not your thing, don’t force yourself with it (might wanna check some vids, Jolly has a good ones, but i think he deleted it some time ago).

On one hand constant updates and continuing a games longevity can be nice, but in reality it usually just means fomo which I despise.
