It used to be an old CCG called Alteil, probably have 1k+ hours on that. After playing bg3 this week, defs bg3, but I do have a habit of wafting around a bunch of crpgs.
Fun fact: worked perfectly 100% fine out of the box on my Pop!_OS linux machine. I recently switched to linux (after trying every few years for the last couple decades) and I love that I can finally play games like this now!
I’m jealous of that download speed. Took me an hour to download and during that time my wife decided we had to go out for dinner. So now I don’t get to play until after work tomorrow 😔
Took me 5 hours this morning. I got 30-40 Mbps for most of the time until it started speeding up finally for the last hour. Finally in tho! (Except for this work meeting…)
The character creator is amazing! I can’t believe how good the faces and hair look! I made a beautiful female forest gnome druid and then ended up making a male guardian that was even more beautiful.
Lost mine already.
Used to be Team Fortress 2 (before becoming free and the hats), then Super Monday Night Combat (but it died), then I went from game to game but couldn’t fill the void, Trove sort of did it but then it got taken over by Tencent and the grinding got even worse (which was already very heavy), then Overwatch managed to get close… But then it went to shit (besides all the shit with Activision-Blizzard).
I’m still looking for something to fill that void, something where I can join a lobby/match, check the web between deaths and then go back to search for a new match and check the web while it happens.
Or something like Trove, something to grind that is simple/friendly, that I can take at my own pace (unless it’s some sort of special raid or boss) but sadly most of those games either require too much focus for a long-ish time (DRG or Gunfire Reborn , I love them but it’s tiring) or are just gambling disguised as games (fucking Tencent).
Well even if it’s offline it can “die” for me since we are talking about having a game that I can play all the time, and being offline usually means it has an end which I can only reach so many times before it gets boring.
In theory that’s what roguelikes or dungeon crawlers are for, but they either try too hard to be complex or give no time to idle/rest for a while (to not lose the flow of the battle), also roguelikes sort of make me feel uneasy because even if you can play like a god, it’s the RNG that decides if you have a chance at winning or not.
Online games can die in that way as well, so I don't really see your argument. If it's continued updates - then single-player (or self hosted) games can still get those (just as they can be pulled for online-only ones).
If it's other players that keep you going - then look to games which support LAN or self-hosted servers. Then at least when the main server gets pulled, the community can take over.
I feel like I can always find something to do in Beatsaber, whether trying to beat my own scores or trying new modes or new modded songs.
Risk of Rain 2 is also great for mindless entertainment and trying new things.
Distance. It’s sort of a racing game but with a story? It gets hard as hell but it’s tons of fun and the music is great. It’s criminally underplayed in my opinion
