    In Progress Dominions 6: ProfessionalThroneSitters II, MA Edition

    Seems like an unfair advantage though, since it effectively means you get 2 cap circles.

    SaGa Series Discussion

    I'm in this boat too, except I won't even have time for it until after the summer. I'm also just not sold on the artstyle. It's just got this uncanny valley 3D effect where I feel like I'm looking at abstract art instead of an actual representation of anything. You don't need any context to...

    In Progress X-Piratez! Ironman! No spoilers! Oldschool X-COM Total Conversion with mutant amazon pirates. Death to the star gods!

    Sure but now the votes are tied up. I'll give it a little more time anyways.

    What game did you spend the most time on?

    I don't think I could say for sure, but I think it'd be a fair bet for me it was Starcraft:Broodwar. The custom maps in that game ate up my afternoons on a daily basis for multiple years I'm pretty sure. Must have been thousands of hours. I still think about it now and then, how many awesome...

    Axiom Verge & Axiom Verge 2 - funky Metroidvanias with more character than your ex

    I'd say the other big exception is La-Mulana and it's sequel, but uh... don't play those if you value your sanity. I think the only game that's come close to trolling me that hard is Getting Over It.

    Axiom Verge & Axiom Verge 2 - funky Metroidvanias with more character than your ex

    Super Metroid is definitely fuzzier in my memory than HK; I could be wrong on that one. Probably depends on your definition of 'accessible' as well, given wall jumps are a thing you can beat the game without ever using. Re: Axiom Verge- I didn't get around to trying the sequel, but the first...

    Axiom Verge & Axiom Verge 2 - funky Metroidvanias with more character than your ex

    Hollow Knight is the example you're looking for, it's what I love about it most. After you get the mantis claws, the game is just wide, wide open. There's are a lot of really important upgrades and they overlap in interesting ways. SotN was fairly open too, but mostly because it's mobility...

    In Progress X-Piratez! Ironman! No spoilers! Oldschool X-COM Total Conversion with mutant amazon pirates. Death to the star gods!

    Well, I'm back after my unannounced month longbreak. Didn't plan to take a break that long (or at all really) but as I am prone to do, I got distracted by some new game I figured would only hold my attention for a day or two, then was a little less inclined to go back so I tried another, and...

    The Last Spell - city defense tactical RPG with roguelite mechanics - now with Dwarves of Runenberg DLC

    I haven't played this since early access like a year ago. One more thing on the backlog I'm actually really interested in.

    In Progress Dominions 6 - Rise of the Pantokrator: The New Decline a.k.a ProfessionalThroneSitters MP Match (Ongoing!)

    I actually voted for a MA game myself when we were starting this one. I'm not going to have the time to run another game in a couple months though. I really wanted to try out Asphodel too, they look really cool now.

    Robust JRPGs like Final Fantasy?

    I generally feel the same way, but I think they deserve a pass since they actually use the 3D to hide some easter eggs and treasures and such, and occasionally do some cool camera movement stuff. I would in fact suggest just skipping ahead to BoF3. 2 has a spot in my heart, but 3 is honestly...

    Robust JRPGs like Final Fantasy?

    I've played all of these except Golden Sun, and BoF 4 was the only one I didn't finish. It's a very pretty game, but the combat was way, way too easy and the dragons are boring. I'd recommend BoF 3 if it's the side content you're after. Finding all the dragon genes and masters alone is a ton of...

    In Progress Dominions 6 - Rise of the Pantokrator: The New Decline a.k.a ProfessionalThroneSitters MP Match (Ongoing!)

    Now that you mention it, only one of them was, and he had 8. Not sure what the plan was. They definitely all tried to cast storm power. Edit: I'd place even odds whatever commander he'd wanted to use to cast it got murdered by an ivy king. Kailasa taking that throne probably indirectly killed...
