[Pathfinder: WoTR]

KeighnMcDeath Darth Roxor

Despite all my rage, I'll not buy this game

 

[mediocrepoet]

Prince of Persia with MOAR SWERD:

How the hell do you get Prince of Persia from that trailer? One's a combat action game, the other one is a puzzle platformer.

 

[Starner]

This game released a couple of months ago and it's a top tier FPS. Every level is a minute or less, and it promotes learning the mechanics to speed run the levels as you improve.

A note about the dev of this game for my fellow chuds.

“I had this little voice outside of myself again say, ‘But you can’t do this. You’re Black, you’re familiar with the reality of AAA games.

This vulnerability extends to race: Nelson is a Black citizen of the USA, in 2021.

“I am so thankful and proud to be Black, despite for a variety of reasons, being statistically more likely to die in a variety of gruesome ways,” he says.

“And I am Black! And I love boxes! But I feel like I’m opening up door after door after door and trying to leave a room which is designed to encapsulate the full Black experience, which, respectfully cannot contain the talent of me and the other creators that I see in this industry, and I just keep finding myself in that room again, like a fucking Lynchian nightmare.
“And I don’t know how to address it except to say, ‘No, I’m not coming for your Black award. I’m coming for all of them.’”

Oh wow, I didn't know this about the developer..... that's unfortunate.

Besides, Prince of Persia was not much of a puzzler. Not exactly Another World or Flashback.

 

[Infinitron]

Autumn sale is live.

 

[Mitleser2020]

New Steam giveaway (till the end of November)

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

Steam Girl awaits to deliver to you.

Someone help me decide: Sins of a Solar Empire 2 or Age of Wonders 4.

Edit: I've played and loved SoaSE 1 but never played any of the Age games before.

 

[Jonathan "Zee Nekomimi]

Age of Wonder is like civ and "dota"/total war (for the combat) mixed on one. Also got the "Paradox Studios" caveat so be warned.

 

[Heroic Liberator]

Age of Wonder is like civ and "dota"/old world of warcraft (for the rts combat)

Bro, AoW4 has no RTS combat. It's all TB in nuXCOM style (plus the option to autoresolve a la TW).

 

[Crispy]

Yeah, what? It's specifically listed as turn-based.

I decided to go with AoW 4 since SoaSE 2 looks almost identical to the first one.

Have fun. Been playing it recently myself and I'd say that overall it's quite cozy. Not as much city management (in terms of specializing) as in other 4X titles, but the nuXCOM style combat is ok and the tome system gives its own spin to things.
