Yeah the gameplay loop in that game is definitely an issue, IMO what they need is a ‘optional’ victory condition like in Anno 1800 or Factorio where you have the option to keep playing after winning.

Hosted a multiplayer world and didn’t have any serious issues, but according to everyone else playing with me it was laggy as shit (and I’m kown for having the best internet in my group)

Despite trying I never got Into pokemon as a kid so my judgment isn’t worth much in that regard, but it’s still very much an unfinished game, as everyone buying it should know in advance.

It was fun but I probably never would have bought it without friends to play it with, and I probably won’t launch it again until it’s far more complete.

What games would you reccomend to someone who really enjoyed Industries of Titan and was immensely disappointed by it's incomplete release? angielski

What the title says. If I was to best describe what I liked so much about it, I would say that it was how it had both a serious ‘cozy factor’ (ex: anno 1800) while still being difficult and requiring effort+skill to win. What other games scratch that itch?

I’ve actually already got a couple hundred hours in CoI lol, but it’s definitely something to check out for others reading this.

I will also say that it’s VERY dangerous to play while stoned lol.

It allows trains to be used like trucks from Captain of Industry.

Ngl I creamed a lil when I understood.

I gave into peer pressure earlier this year and tried League.

God that shit was boring.

What are the best multiplayer games to try if me and my friends are looking for a similar experience to a Bungie Halo campaign marathon on Heroic+ difficulty? angielski

PC. We played through all of the 3+ player ones around a year or two ago in chronological order and it was stupid fun, what we liked about it and are hoping to find elsewhere is it being a shooter with an emphasis on movement and it’s physics sandbox (AKA CHAOS) while still having at least 3 full campaigns to play through in a...

That game had no right to beat DSR for sound design.

Catastrophic235,
@Catastrophic235@midwest.social avatar

It was a gimmick. Execeptionally Well executed gimmick? Yes. It took creative vision and the commitment to see it through and that is important, But DSR is just on another level. It’s like Ozymandius VS Dr Manhattan.

IIRC devs claimed the amount of content would be on par with the base game around the time they first announced it.

Very hype.

Catastrophic235,
@Catastrophic235@midwest.social avatar

Yeah, I think a big part of that is that people see this idea of digital permanence you’re describing, and it gets misrepresented to shit.

Catastrophic235,
@Catastrophic235@midwest.social avatar

I don’t understand how that can happen lol, this is one of those cases where I’m not so sure that victim blaming is wrong 100% of the time.

Like if it’s a little kid, mentally disabled person, or geriatric who’s ignorance is being exploited, that’s one thing. But a grown ass adult who’s lived around technology their whole life? I simply don’t understand how that happens as a question of causality.

I have half a mind to post some retarded anime supervillain-tier monolog where I do a deep dive into the meaning of personal agency, question if these people even have any agency over themselves, and if they don’t, claim that this is equivalent to them not even existing in the first place. I then proceed to hatch some obtuse and inefficent plot to exploit it with an unnecessarily high human cost.

I wonder what they did with Biters on this world?

I expect we’ll get a post about it eventually, probably closer to release.

The company suffering because they betrayed the trust of their customers actually is capitalism working as intended lol, all we’re missing is someone who actually holds the line Unity sold themselves as holding but failed to do.

TFW a product marketed towards adults who watch a show designed to appeal to little children failed to find a large enough market.

What role do you think the Steam workshop plays in this?

Obviously the people playing the AAA franchises don’t care, but when you see the sheer quantity of workshop content for some games (Cities:Skylines and Space Engineers come to mind for me, no doubt there’s other examples in genres I’m less familiar with), you see how much the modding community has contributed to the commercial success of these games. I’m wondering how this factors in to steam as a whole.

That zombie game sounds almost like it could be a Crossed game lol.

Someone spoiled the Dead Space remake ending for me a week before it even came out.

One of my favorite improvements is that industries now work like they do in ANNO 1800.

I find myself accidentally pressing ctrl+q a lot.

space engineer

While that game is absolutely capable of being like this, it’s also capable of being more like a cutscene from a Bungie Halo game

RUINER soundtrack. You’ve never played anything like it.

Catastrophic235,
@Catastrophic235@midwest.social avatar

I will say it hits Different if you’re actually playing the game, but the Zamilska ones stand out.

Catastrophic235,
@Catastrophic235@midwest.social avatar

I’ve actually played that one a lot lol, I’ve played the original flash and there’s a newer version on Steam.

Catastrophic235,
@Catastrophic235@midwest.social avatar

Tried both of these, while fun they aren’t quite what I’m looking for. Riftbreaker is definitely on a higher level then DINAO.

I would say go for it, AFAIK the game is mostly complete (IIRC only big things left are the last 3rd of the campaign and faction-specific models for buildings, possibly multiplayer) and while the bugs can be pretty bad they aren’t very common, usually get fixed quickly, and tend to only occur after major updates. Nothing I would consider inappropriate for an EA game at it’s stage in development.

Catastrophic235,
@Catastrophic235@midwest.social avatar

That game was probable the first proper RTS I ever played, or is at least the 1st I remember.

I was probably 10 y/o old or younger when I played the OG flash game.

Never played CW3 but I have played CW4 and it definitely scratched the same itch as the OG, what about 3 makes it the best?

Lmao, there is something deeply entertaining about Fortnite being used as a platform for corporate psyops.

That, or really anything that you were exposed to at an early enough age to influence your tastes or how you contextualized the themes it explored later in your life.

@Catastrophic235@midwest.social avatar

Damn I’m glad I bought AC6 at launch instead of Starfield, unlike half my friends lol. Pretty sure one of them got a save breaking bug on the same night I beat Balteus 😂😂😂.

I’ll probably still get it, but it’ll be months from now after the modding community has gotten established and the problems have been mostly worked out.

Catastrophic235,
@Catastrophic235@midwest.social avatar

It was pretty good when I did a run last winter/early spring. No longer my benchmark for games that run poorly on my system.

Obviously not perfect but nothing like the shitshow it was at launch.

@Catastrophic235@midwest.social avatar

That really doesn’t do anything at all to explain why one of the devs would get arrested for brandishing(?) A handgun. Literally conveys no other information other than “Roblox devs bad”, same thing is true of the rest of this thread now that I think of it.

Like just going off the title, that could be describing a would-be mass murderer who got foiled as easily as it could be describing some guy who just forgot to take off his conceal carry and the wrong person realized before he did.

They need to reboot the Supreme Commander games.

Does anyone know of any kid-friendly "horror" games out there for children ~7 years old?

My son loves the adrenaline rush of getting scared, particularly with jump scares, however, I have a lot of difficulty finding a game or show which is appropriate for him. He is prone to nightmares, and more adult-oriented “kid horror” is too much (Poppy’s Playtime, Cartoon Cat?) And others like Siren Head. His peers...

Dead space 2, start him out on the school level for the optimal results.

Catastrophic235,
@Catastrophic235@midwest.social avatar

Yeah, did a couple years back. Had to re-buy it because I was like 11 or something when minecraft blew up and i initially got it and had no chance of recovering all the info I needed.

What’s that quote from originally? I’ve always assumed it was Todd but now that I think about it I’ve never seen anything that would prove it, I supposed I’ve always just associated it with bethesda games lol.

Catastrophic235,
@Catastrophic235@midwest.social avatar

Nice! I’ll have to play it again one of these days to check them out lol.

“You do thing I no like, how embarrassing for you”

Lmao maybe if you keep saying it it’ll be true?

Not counting games that were unfun because of bugs, what’s the most unfun video game that you’ve played and what made it unfun? (kbin.cafe) angielski

Most of the video games I’ve played were pretty good. The only one I can think of that I didn’t like was MySims Kingdom for the Nintendo DS. Dropped that pretty quickly. It was a long while ago, but I’ll guess it was because there were too many fetch quests and annoying controls.

Catastrophic235,
@Catastrophic235@midwest.social avatar

Satisfactory.

Totally my fault, it’s not a bad game it just wasn’t remotely what I was looking for when I bought it.

I got it expecting “factorio in 3d”, however in reality it was more like Subnautica or Fallout 4 if the base building in those games was the main part of the game.

By the time I had finished loading the first phase of the space elevator I had came to terms with this.

As it turns out, the game that scratched that itch was heavily modded Space Engineers.

Catastrophic235,
@Catastrophic235@midwest.social avatar

I’ll try:

Are you sure that’s the most important upgrade? Not modifying it so the direct connection to Zucc’s goon cave works 2 ways?

Catastrophic235,
@Catastrophic235@midwest.social avatar

In the same Boat, Crystalien Conflict was probably one of the first RTS games I ever played - it was either that or the OG Creeper World.

I have a theory that freaky cartoon porn on the internet is going to spawn a “market” for entertainers somehow.

It’s like… the ‘weird factor’ of it is such that you could probably capture a large audience by trying to explain or understand it in a neutral, non-judgmental way. Study the way a person ends up being ‘into it’ in the same way people study the life cycle of a marine mammal or something.

I’m probably not saying this right.
