it was actually one that I remember playing when I was younger. The name always stuck in my brain because of the initials and what they stood for. Glad you found it
There’s a couple of quests that have a time limit, and it’s easy to not be aware since all the others can be completed whenever. I only knew beforehand because I read about it, and I’m glad I did, because letting them unintentionally expire has really bad outcomes.
Also I got a mod for infinite respecs. Otherwise I would worry about wasting finite consumable points and never spend them.
Great game, it and the original Pixel Dungeon were my most played phone games for years.
Another high quality mobile experience I can’t recommend enough is Slice & Dice. Gameplay is quite different from Pixel Dungeon, but it’s basically replaced all other phone games for me. Been playing it almost continuously now for the past 3 years.
I’m surprised this isn’t one of the top comments. I don’t even play or have interest RTS games, only ever watched friends play it as a kid and it’s still stuck in my head to this day.
My favorites to randomly quote at work:
“More work?”
“Off i go then”
“Stop poking me”
“What, mortal?”
“Im blind, not deaf”
“Youve got a chip on your shoulder, aye, i have fish there too”
“Vrroooom” “It came from… behind…”
“A sound plan”
I think I have 5k hours in and the development style finally got to me in a bad way. I can go into detail if needed, but I don’t feel I need to to anyone with enough time in the game.
Thanks! I blasted my way through the main quest in preparation for 1999. Now I’m just working on getting my MR up and good frames and weapons built. My friends are so much farther along than me and they are a huge help. My fave part of the game, by far, is the fashion
The amount you complain about WoW you should probably just quit the game, if you’re even playing it. Also why do you keep making topics and then deleting them? You complained about subscriptions, and now you’re complaining about optional additional cosmetic content.
Like 99% of the community likely doesn’t care about promotional stuff. You can just pay the game and subscription and get access to all gameplay features just fine. If someone spends hundreds of bucks to get some useless promotional item, then let them. It doesn’t affect my gameplay.
Yeah, you can buy a mount from the store that saves you like a 2 minute walk or flight to your closest auction house, ironically I’ve never ever seen anyone even use these mounts outside of the cities that have actual auction houses, they’re usually just next to a mailbox or bank across the street of the auction house.
The fact that these things sell is probably one reason why subscriptions in the past 20 years haven’t rising in the first place.
I can’t help but question the accuracy of this list, since the Steam Deck doesn’t seem to log hours for games played in offline mode correctly. I easily have hundreds of hours unaccounted for. It will also add played time for hours spent in standby with a game running, but then wipe all of the hours played and in standby once I connect to the internet.
At least on PC if you play a game without internet connection the library update the achievements/hours played when you reconnect, is different when you log in the offline mode?
I recently put a dozen hours into Witcher 3 while using my steam deck on a couple long flights. I’m pretty sure it synced correctly when I finally got home and connected to wifi. Maybe it didn’t work at one time, but I’d be surprised if it still doesn’t.
Yeah I played Divinity Original Sin this weekend and my internet died Saturday, finished the game, when my internet got back on Monday steam saved my +15hr and the achievements but I also let my PC on and steam opened hoping for the best.
Date an audiophile and you’ll never run out of quality cables. If you’re lucky, they might even agree to flog you with the Stax Lambda’s flat ribbon cable.
Secrecy is how employers get away with wage inequality.
“I didn’t know she was 17” does not work in a court of law.
An audiophile will proudly point at their favourite budget headset. I mean, the Samson SR-850 is just insane value for its price. Sure, it’s a symphony of plastics, the design is just a straight rip-off of the AKG K240, and the fixed cable is a bummer, but the frequency response and the soundstage are out of this world. Plus the impedance is only 32 ohms: it easily runs out of a smartphone.
I guess you’re looking to spend time with interesting characters.
Endearing party of playable characters:
Bug Fables — A big tiny adventure of three cute insects, with Paper Mario-inspired turn-based combat
Cassette Beasts — Creature-collecting with heart. You bring one of several interesting companions with you.
Moonlight Pulse — A metroidvania set on a planet-sized creature. You play as a team of planet-creature denizens fighting off a parasite infestation.
Encountering interesting NPCs:
A Short Hike — A very small but dense open world game. You encounter characters on your way to find a cell signal in a remote mountain park. With no quest tracker or minimap, you just wander and do what you want.
Inscryption — Card game with an immersive, spooky atmosphere. The game is hiding secrets from you, though, and you’ll meet plenty of shady characters before you can get the truth.
CrossCode — Action RPG set in a fictional VR MMO of the distant future. You wake up as a player character with no memories of real life, unable to log out. You quickly make friends, go do MMO stuff together and get to the bottom of why you’re stuck in-game.
Parasocial weirdness:
Hypnospace Outlaw — You are a janitor on a Geocities-like service in a simulated 1999 internet. You learn about all the users through their personal websites. This game expresses a large emotional range with just website updates (or the lack of them).
I was going to suggest CrossCode, it has some great characters. And while the game is balls-hard on default settings it has many adjustable options to bring it in line with whatever your skill level may be.
Honestly, my issue with it is that it gets mired in real MMO tedium when it didn’t need to simulate that. Stuff like running between NPC traders to trade your supplies up for good equipment and other stuff like having a gigantic pile of consumables.
And of course, I finish the final boss with all the best consumables still in my inventory. The game never pressed me to use them, so I always saved them for something more important. “Oh, that was the final boss. Guess I should have been eating more sandwiches.”
The plot and worldbuilding are still really cool. Just don’t get into MMOmaxxing.
