I love this game except for the fact that it seems having the biggest city is the way to win when having the best quality of lifeand the least environnemental impact would be my way to win. But I guess it’s my green side😅

These games are what’s making me look at PC gaming instead at just Playstation.

BossDj,

This was my first year playing controller games on my pc, and now I feel like the world is my oyster

yamper,

is there a city sim that prioritizes green cities and quality of life? the first cities skylines was shockingly america-centric with the city designs it let you build, even with the european devs.

Dariusmiles2123,

Not that I know of.

I guess my way of seeing the world isn’t shared by so many people.

SC3000 was the last city builder game that could hold my attention and didn’t feel like it was constantly rushing me with no time to enjoy what I’d built. I’m sure getting older played a part in that too.

It has been over a quarter of a century since SimCity 3000 was released in 1999.

First off, rude.

Secondly, great write up. :)

Sim City 3000 was the best out of every sim building game I still play it today.

I am glad I am not the only one who is still playing it somewhat regularly. :)

Definitely although I might need to try that citystate that looks really good from what I see on YouTube, and there’s a second one as well.

Haven’t played the 2nd one, the first one is solid though. I did find the political simulation to be a bit inflexible, I think I disabled political impact on my runs.

Wish it was 1999.

Avowed and X4 depending on the mood. X4 started slow but I think I’ve started the process of getting the hang of the basics after 30 hours.

Nice review! Genuinely made me want to jump back in. I know I won’t, but the nostalgia is real!

Is this what English sounds like to people who don’t speak it?

You might love and hate my answer: Titanfall 2

It’s literally both of these things. Pilots play the extremely fast, twitch-shooting superhuman game while Titans play the slow-paced boots-on-the-ground heavy-weighted gameplay.

It’s the best multiplayer shooter of all time and it survives thanks to the Northstar launcher on PC

Rainbow Six: Siege

People who play it like COD are the worst players in the game. Everything is designed to reward methodical, team-focused strategy so you can get the upper hand on people who don’t pay attention and try to rush everything.

Escape from Tarkov has a PVE mode now, so you dont gotta deal with the sweaties of PVP. Any of the tactical looter shooters have a slow vibe. Tarkov was intense and difficult for a long time, but my bestie was my Sherpa, so to speak, and we go into maps together and I can handle myself now. It has a hideout building aspect, so your loot goes towards something. There’s quests from the trade vendors, that all builds a lore to the game that has a lot of secrecy. I dunno a lot of it, but it’s fun to figure out. It also has weapon building, where all the weapons are able to be taken apart and sold for parts or pieced together with the parts you want. The ammo has stats on what can penetrate armor, and the armor has a plate system so you can buy or find better plates for it. There’s a durability aspect too, and weapons can jam and need to be evaluated and then clearing the malfunction. There’s bosses, too. And different factions to deal with. Many are ill equiped, and some are decked out in gear with big weapons. Your character can die with one shot if there’s no armor there. Or you can tank a bunch of shots if you’re kitted out. There’s even a flea market that’s player based. So the prices can make your character rich, if you play the market or sell stuff. Like, selling a chocolate bar can net you 100k, because they’re fast food during in-raid. Oh, and there’s a whole water + food system. So you have to find food and water to keep that going. You have to use the right meds for the right situation; splits for fractures, bandages for light bleeds, tournequits for heavy bleeds, pain killers, injector pens for status effects and medkits to heal, after you deal with all those situations. Some medkits even cover a lot of the various things, some inject pens cover various things too.

It’s pretty in-depth.

The game is based in Russia though. Your character is without a faction, despite picking one “USEC” OR “BEAR.” But that’s just how you got into the city; USEC was the corporations mercenary group, BEARs were the military. And it takes place after the fighting, your character sorta got out of the faction. Unless you do a scavenger (scav) run, everyone is unfriendly. Scavs all stick together except the boss and their goons might pop you.

It doesn’t seem to have anything to do with real politics, far as I’ve seen? But the lore deals with the corporate greed, military powers, and regular scavenger people all kinda vying for survival in a war torn city of Tarkov. It’s a weird lore, but interesting for a game and intense gunfights of fire, move, cover, fire, move, cover. Be wary of a clicking grenade and run.

“Ready or Not” seems not to be recommended yet. It is basically a SWAT simulator you can play single player or together with 4 people.

You can choose your loadout freely to complete the missions. I recommend going blind into the missions on a first playthrough as some have some unexpected surprises …

Rin,

There’s like 3 missions where you ought to be relatively quick. It’s a good game tho

sit, (edited ) do gaming w What's a good slow paced shooter game?

Escape from Tarkov checks all these boxes.

It’s by my definition dead tho, as its playerbase consists currently of highly experienced players and cheaters.

I play it but I also got close to 3000h.

Edit: It’s the polar opposite of cod, the only thing they have in common are guns.

vinceman,

I had quite a bit of fun on the PVE mode, but it’s not as fun as PvP. I just don’t have the time to commit anymore.

Lovely retrospective. SC3000 is definitely the pinnacle of city builders. Still play it regularly.
