    Management / Sim OpenTTD 1.11.0 Released - now also available on Steam!

    Does anyone have experience with Simutrans? Is it worth the effort? The lack of discussion around it and some negative steam reviews makes me think no, but it looks so cool--like a deeper version of openttd.

    Incline Fully playable Ultima Underworld 1 port to Unity with mouse-look

    Anyone know if this unity port has fidelity issues? I noticed I can jump higher than in the original, and items are different, at least in description. In the opening area, for example, weapons you find aren't called worn or very worn. The QoL improvements are pretty nice, but not worth it...

    Decline On why boss combat is shit (and why your favorite Soulslike sucks).

    Sometimes large, powerful, bullet sponge enemies can be okay because they add variety to pacing and strategy. I'm thinking of enemies like the Baron of Hell in Doom. I think it's the other aspects of boss fights the op mentions that are what makes them annoying. I'm not sure if it applies to...

    Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate 3 RELEASE THREAD

    Where do you think this game would rank in codex top 100 if the poll were done today? Would it be in there?

    Indie Four Horsemen of Incline - Underrail, Grimoire, Kenshi and KotC

    I wonder what RPGs from the current generation, if any, will still be played 20 years from now. I imagine they are games with solid gameplay, a unique and realized vision, and somewhat timeless visuals.

    199?-200? finding a game

    Akuma cd looks kind of close. Not that red, though. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Video-Game-PC-Demon-Spawn-Akuma-Vintage-1999-Disc-Only-see-pics/256124659625?nordt=true&rt=nc Couldn't figure out how to embed this link, sorry

    Your favourite games from the dark age of pure shit (2005 - 2009)

    My favs would be: Civ 4 (2005) Flight Simulator X (2006) Risen (2009)

    Solium Infernum remake

    Hopefully someone will create a mod for the archfiend character models. The cartooney look of some of them clashes with the tone of the rest of the game.

    Achievements In Video Games

    The only time I paid attention to Steam achievements was in Crusader Kings 2. Maybe because it was an open-ended game, it was nice to have ideas for things to try and a record that you did it. Some of them were funny, of course, like have a child with the inbred trait. In-game achievements in...

    Good entry into JRPGs for a skeptic

    Why is this so? I read it was mostly only cosmetic problems Does anyone know if the Phatasy Star IV version on Steam is acceptable or iis it better to emulate?

    Good entry into JRPGs for a skeptic

    To be honest I didn't really give it much of a chance. I generally find jrpg combat to seem simplistic, but this could be because I only played a few hours. The life sim aspects were fine. I'll look at SMT III, though, thanks.

    Good entry into JRPGs for a skeptic

    Never really played a jrpg beyond messing around for a few hours (I own Persona 4, Ocarina of Time, Trails in the Sky, Chrono Trigger, and Dragons Dogma), but my limited experience has made me skeptical that they are for me. However, I'm in the mood to try something out of my comfort zone, and...

    Enshrouded - co-op survival action RPG - now available on Early Access

    I think solo is enjoyable up to a point. Story and NPCs are basically non-existent. Basebuilding is a big part of the game, not because it is essential to survival, but because its fun and there isn't a lot else to do besides that and explore. You explore because exploration in the game is...

    Enshrouded - co-op survival action RPG - now available on Early Access

    I have double jump and I've never encountered this. I can confirm what you say about better difficulty past a certain level. I am level 5 and even with full heavy armor the quest to get the carpenter was dangerous. I kind of wish death was a bit more punishing, however. You lose what's in...

    Enshrouded - co-op survival action RPG - now available on Early Access

    https://enshrouded.featureupvote.com/ The game's website has a feature upvote section. Difficulty slider is pretty high up on the list. The ability to turn off bloom is surprisingly far down.
