Pretty sure that Revanced still has google tracking since its a patched version of the official app.
Also if anyone here intends to use it: Please be careful. The real revenced site (www.revanced.app) has awfull SEO and usualy appears way below fake websites (that sometimes spread malware). The only real websites are revanced.app and the github.
Also you have to patch the app yourself for copyright reasons so don’t trust and websites that offer a direct apk of revanced (the real website offers a manager app that you can use to patch the official app)
Basically all of NetHack, but if I had to pick one thing, it would be the fact that the devs foresee things that don’t even exist in the game. For example, if you polymorph yourself into a monster that can eat metal and then eat a trident, you get a humorous message referencing Trident bubble gum. A similar message exists for when you eat a piece of flint (referencing the Flintstones, naturally), despite the fact that there are no monsters in the game that can eat rocks. In other words, that message can never be seen in the vanilla version of the game, but the devs prepared it anyway just in case you mod such a monster in.
This week I played Euro Truck Simulator 2 after I don’t know how long. I posted about it on my Mastodon server and there’s a chance that this evening I’ll play it multiplayer with three complete strangers.
I am close to finishing The Outer Worlds. The game has a somewhat mixed reception when it comes up in discussions online and I think it’s mostly because the developer Obsidian made New Vegas and Outer Worlds apparently is the worse game. So, I never played New Vegas and therefore can’t compare the two. I do enjoy my time with Outer Worlds very much!
it’s basically the same formula as Fallout 4 but in a humorous space setting with better gunplay. Or, alternatively Borderlands with a ton more talking and decisions and worse gunplay. In any case a lot of shooting and looting.
different builds are possible but not as significant different as in Borderlands. But since it’s not a massively big game it didn’t matter that much to me. After a couple of changes I kinda kept investing mostly in my handgun, my companions and personality skills to pass more skillchecks.
what I like: the stories the game tells! Be it the main quest line or quests for factions or your companions. All have a nice sense of humor to them without getting too silly. For example there is a dude in a wurst factory and you get sent there to end whatever he is doing there (hint: it’s more than producing wurst from spacepigs). And there are a number of ways you can approach this: guns blazing, trying to sabotage the factory or sneak in and just kill the guy.
also: great soundtrack and overall sound design! The jingle that plays when you level up is just great!
also: while not a massive big game there are a lot of different places to go and explore. From abandoned settlements in some sort of desert to a big city where only rich people live and everything in between.
meh: so many drinks, lotions and food items that give you different boosts. Problem is that there are so many different items it’s hard to keep track which one does what. I abandoned pretty much all of them and only kept Adreno (restores energy).
meh: fast travel can be annoying because most of the time you have to fast travel back to your ship and then from there select another planet/spacestation and then land your ship and then again fast travel to wherever you need to go to. So it’s potentially three (not very long, though) loading screens if you need to go someplace different.
decisions do matter in quests but the general direction of the story is set.
I say: if you like stuff like Fallout, Borderlands and generally combat heavy action rpgs, this game may be right up your alley. And since it’s kinda old at this point it’s also pretty cheap most of the time.
Is the loot more like a Diablo or Borderlands, where it's a treadmill and you're constantly getting objectively better equipment with higher numbers? Or is it more like a tabletop RPG or the old-school Fallouts where there's often nothing wrong with your starting equipment and you could feasibly play through the entire game with some or most of it? Baldur's Gate 3 has had me building a list of all the RPGs I wanted to play but missed, and your talk about the loot is making me reconsider this one.
It’s not like Borderlands, where there is a infinite amount of new but also more ore less the same weapons with differing numbers! You can upgrade (called tinkering) any weapon with money. It costs more with each upgrade and only upgrade it five levels above your own, so you can’t just grind money and get overpowered. But yeah, you can finish this game with one gun you like!
The main missions were definitely soft and the games overall have their warts, but that base mechanic was pure art.
You could take all the care in the world and special ops the shit out of it, or you could go in there and Rambo the shit out of it, and each would work or wouldn’t for various reasons and the difficulty scales well enough that you don’t just automatically pick the latter every time.
Only other games that have scratched that itch have been MGSV, Ghost of Tsushima and Sniper Elite.
Most games have some variety of this now but those three along with Far Cry build and scale it well enough that feels like an accomplishment over the course of a whole game.
MGSV was another one I loved that felt very similar. Unfortunately I kinda stopped liking it right after the Africa part starts. Afghanistan was super fun though.
