Games were once created by gamers, who had a clear vision. It since became a soulless business and people notice. I think twice before opening my wallet now. I don’t pre-order, don’t spend more on digital gimmick editions and wait for reviews, first. Usually I can wait for sales. The industry’s problems are homemade. But once in a while I find rare gems like Forgive me Father. And I’m happy with that.
It’s Steam sale and I’m looking for chill farming/building games that do not look like Anime. The setting is secondary, because I’ve no idea what’s out there. Can be in space, historical, fantasy, anything really and I’ll have a look. I just don’t like Anime style and forced cuteness....
Many thanks for the tips! Graveyard Keeper and Traveler’s Rest look interesting. The rest is pretty much exactly what I don’t want in terms of style haha.
So, I’ve spent over 2 hours on Steam searching for a nice game to play. But it’s all junk, as far as I’m fed with Steam recommendations. I liked ksp2 1, cities skylines 1, age of empires 2, baldurs gate 3 a lot, I just finished Divinity original sin 2. I like rpgs and management / factory games like workers and resources,...
I think you might like ‘Rogue Trader’, even if you don’t know anything about the 40K universe. Cool story, choices and fights.
Don’t worry too much about not knowing the background lore. The game contextualizes a lot in dialogues and even little mouseovers. But be careful, if you like SciFi, you might fall into the awesomely rich and grim rabbit hole, that is Warhammer 40K.
This is my 5th most played game on Steam, mostly because I’ve played through the campaign solo once, then replayed it with a friend, then re-replayed with another friend. Plus, after the campaign is over, there are daily missions you can complete that change every day, so it’s not like you run out of things to do in-game....
Greetings to all! I’ve played Total War titles for years and enjoy building an empire. Now I would like to broaden my horizons and am looking for similar games that satisfy this itch....
If there’s a need for tips, your business model sucks and you should be ashamed of yourself.
If there’s no need for tips, you could just take some of your perverted bonuses or some of that ridiculous amount of money you take out of children’s pockets with micro transactions and show those people some love who did the actual work, you prick. They make millions and millions for you.
What a world we live in where asshats like that step forward and ejaculate their greed into the world and expect applause!

What are some game series you would like to see revived? And if possible, which entry should the new game follow from?
For example, for me, I would love a new Populous game based from what was done in Populous 3. That, and a new SimCity based on SimCity 4!
Grand Strategy games?
