The game “Humankind” plays very similar to civ 6, might be better to compare it to being inbetween civ 6 and 7. But it has a much more tactical combat system.
I found humankind to be very difficult to go the domination path, but I haven’t played since close to release.
It was very prohibitive to take direct control of conquered cities as the cost seemed exponential, and you had to constantly declare peace and then go right back to war or something if I remember correctly. It seemed like a silly system
There’s a big, big, big community for those out there! So many options for doing so, and even custom cabinets that have been made to make displaying them easier, too!
I just found some on reddit. What other communities are out there? I’m digging through the 3d print sharing websites but those never feel particularly… community oriented or really communicative at all.
Niestety nie podsunę rozwiązania, tylko wskażę na potencjalne pułapki: czynsz w stolicy Cię rozpierdoli, a programistów jest już wręcz za dużo, bo to modny kierunek, żeby “robić hajs”. Większość moich znajomych programistów dawno wypalona zawodowo. Zrób sobie kurs operatora koparki czy coś w tym stylu, zgarniaj na tym 6k miesięcznie, a koduj dla przyjemności (jak musisz robić to codziennie, to jest to po prostu chujowe).
Pracowałeś kiedyś na koparce przy polskich inwestycjach (drogowych i innych)? Myślisz że można po takiej pracy mieć czas i siłę na jakiekolwiek “kodowanie dla przyjemności”?
Sama nie jestem programistką ani w ogóle nie jestem związana z IT, ale jakoś po osobach które znam nie widzę, żeby ten rynek przestał dawać zarobki albo kurczył się tak drastycznie, że nie jest już w stanie nikogo wchłonąć. Nie wiem czy gdybym usłyszała takie porady byłoby mi miło, wiem jak bardzo potrafią zniechęcić takie słowa.
Nie dam rady żadne fizyczne rzeczy robić, bo mam strasznie słabe kolana. Już mi powoli wysiadają od wciskania sprzęgła i gazu. O noszeniu ciężarów nie wspominając.
Nie martwię się o wypalenie zawodowe bo mnie informatyka kręci i nie przeszkadza mi gadanie z klientem na temat projektu. A jak coś to mam drugie hobby w zapasie. (Modelowanie w 3d ale perspektywy zawodowe wyglądają jeszcze gorzej niż programowanie)
Mam doświadczenie w zarządzaniu małymi projektami ale całkowicie do tego mnie nie ciągnie.
I do like Balatro and want to play it on my phone, but if I want to do that I have to buy another license, which I can’t even do because I don’t run Google Play Services
Spoiler: you can use the LÖVE loader to run the “PC version” of Balatro on Android, since it’s all written in Lua.
Started playing Star wars the force unleashed. Got 1 and 2 from prime gaming a long time ago. Installed through heroic. I played the first one when I was young on the Wii. Never played the second.
Terraria. You can choose difficulty of the initial save depending on how familiar the players are, and there are several clear milestones that can serve as transfer point (usually marked by beating specific bosses). In a small world, 20 hours is probably doable? You can maybe find a suitable seed for world generation to be sure.
I was also thinking about Elden Ring - despite the game size, the minimum required amount of bosses to beat the game is surprisingly small, and you can also divide the game into milestones. If it’s too short (like, if your players are speedrunner), you can add the DLC on top.
Scheduling availability for people is way easier with set times, 2 hours each, rather than tying it into game progression.
You can’t really “lose” in elden ring, it’s just a steady slog towards the end, so it might be less interesting. All of our highlight reels are full of permadeaths and mishaps, “winning” barely even makes the cut. Terraria in hardcore mode could be interesting though.
Personally I’ve been cooking through the System Shock games. The SS1 remake was my first proper introduction to the series and I loved it. I was pretty excited for the impending System Shock 2 Enhanced Edition but it, uh… doesn’t really seem like it’s going to be very enhanced. Especially compared to what you can do with just modding the base game. So rather than keep waiting for that I spent ten bucks on SS2 Classic and have been enjoying myself greatly.
I’ve always liked SHODAN just via cultural osmosis, but now having actually played the games she stars in, that’s cranked up to 12. I fucking love SHODAN. She might be one of the best examples of an evil rogue AI in any media, and also has an actual reason for going rogue besides just “mankind builds a machine too smart for them and suffers the consequences”. The entire story setup is so believable.
Anyway, tl;dr, the System Shock games are hella good and the remake is especially very good. Particularly because controlling classic SS1 is more like playing an operating system than playing a video game. Also SHODAN. step on me again metal mommy
I got to the System Shock games after Prey (2017), not only am I WAY too young to have been around for them, but it just kinda went past me. But after that spiritual successor I visited the System Shock games, and I love them!
I’m hoping the SS2 is good, because I loved what they did with the first! It’s never meant to be a remake, just a polish of the game itself.
Definitely not the best, but still worth a mention is “Stormworks: Build and rescue”. Basically a Lego like “build a ship/plane and do missions on the oceans” game - missions nowadays are also including far more than rescue.
I didn’t realize that but it doesn’t change the fact that:
The PC draws way more power than is needed
The PC must be powered on (mine draws ~40 watts at idle)
A monitor has to be plugged in and turned on.
The aspect ratio on the devices have to match or you’ll get letterboxing.
If your main display is 4k it will run the game at 4k even if you’re playing on a 720p display so you have to go in and change the graphical settings every time you switch devices.
In my limited experience it literally just doesn’t even work at all.
Even if you’re running over the web you’re limited to the strength of your data connection.
It just doesn’t work like it should, in my opinion. Hopefully they can fix this in the future with Steam Machines.
Or, this might be a might more out of left field or maybe completely stupid and not at all what you had in mind, but what about coral island? You don’t get to experience the water surface except when fishing or doing other stuff on the shore. But you get to do stuff on the bottom and there’s mermaids and stuff.
Stardew valley with a tropical island vibe. So definitely fun and immersive. Definitely more adjacent than something like sea of thieves or black flag or subnautica, but I feel like it fits better than just cause 3, imo
Bit of an oddball, I got the itch to finish Trauma Team on the Wii since I didn’t the first time, so I got a USB sensor bar and I’m playing through it on Dolphin!
I really enjoy the Trauma Center Franchise, bums me out they never made another one, would have loved to see what it would have looked like on the 3ds or a modern entry on the Wii U/Switch.
