Mostly waiting for Lies Of P to land in a day or two. I have spent more time with Starfield, but as I mentioned in a previous comment, I think I’m reaching the end of my time with that one.
I don’t think it’s ‘bad’, but I do think it’s a severely compromised game that underwhelms more than it should for a game of it’s budget and the team behind it. There’s moments where you can see so much potential but it is always somewhat hidden by this mid 2000s design that I thought we’d moved past.
Playing:
Remnant 2, really fun!
Doorkickers 2, a new update came out with new missions I have to conquer!
Hell Let Loose got better again with the latest update, so I play that if I have the energy to shout orders into my mic (because no-one wants to be squad leader).
Sons of the Forest is coming along nicely.
Stopped playing:
Gave up on Starfield. What a mediocre janky game with generic story. Frustrating and time consuming menus. It’s not massive at all. It’s just big empty rooms behind loading screens. There has been like 5% technical development since Fallout 4. They didn’t even bother to fix the mannequin NPC faces for their game “that has been in development for 12 years” or whatever.
I cannot fathom how some people swallow that stuff and goes “10/10 game of the century” and pay 80€ for it.
Sorry for rant.
Looking forward to:
Cyberpunk 2.0
The infantry combat overhaul for Squad.
I absolutely love your description of the game being ‘big empty rooms’. I think I’ve come to the same conclusion in the last 24 hours. The space stuff and the on-planet stuff feels disjointed and unconnected. The way you traverse the universe is incredibly underwhelming (so many menu’s) and the actual game design just feels so 2008.
A new one was released in 2020 on epic games and I think it’s on steam now. It’s a remake / remaster the TMNF/TMUF games. It’s just called Trackmania but most people call it TM2020. It’s a subscription based game with tiers, which sounds shitty but the prices are pretty normal. Like the best tier is $60 for 3 years and that’s how long most people play $60 games anyway…
Player numbers aren’t that great daily on steam (considering most owners bought the epic version anyway), but all of the developer tracks plus most of the community tracks have leaderboards in the tens of thousands, even the hundreds of thousands for the seasonal track releases. There’s also a daily community highlight where players can race and compete on a community track hand-picked by Nadeo staff, so that really bolsters numbers on community tracks.
Multiplayer is kinda dead compared to the older games, but I also don’t think a lot of players play the game for the multiplayer anyway. There are even community playlists of tracks that you can play in singleplayer that go up to I think 50 tracks in size. So you can just pick one of those and play through a bunch without ever having to connect to a community server.
I tried playing Starfield again. The first time I tried, it crashed 4 times before I could finish the tutorials. Tried it again this morning, got past the first spaceship battle and it crashed.
Yeah, that’s really strange. My brother and friend have been playing non stop on the X and haven’t had an issues besides the occasional Bethesda usuals. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling? May be a corrupt install.
Too many pirates concentrate on one single hosting provider.
Plex has to keep up pretenses that it doesn’t want their customers to exclusively be pirates. Only legal CD/DVD/BR rips allowed! If it doesn’t, it’ll get sued to hell and back, and the Plex owners may go to jail for selling piracy as a service.
The Exploring Series has tons and tons of videos exploring the SCP foundation and Warhammer 40k. I never got around to reading all of the Red Sea Object stories, so I really appreciated his video about it
TheEpicNate315 has a ton of videos about The Elder Scrolls (mainly Skyrim) and Fallout (mainly Fallout 4), though many of them are just well-substantiated fan theories rather than lore
