What game are you wasting time on?

[Hag]

That's what I felt years ago when someone I knew irl shilled it, it's obvious the people that made it did a lot of 'grassroots marketing' moreso than Notch ever did.

Yeah, this game must have also been a blast in the tumblr crowd, with all its cuteness and moody world. But my taste requires more colors and music. Oh whatever, I got it on sale, no big deal.

On other news I've started a new game of Northern Journey, just because this is so great and beautiful. I have a much easier time than during my first play for some reason, but still fun. The level design is so above average it is somewhere up lost in the clouds. Every game developer could learn a thing or two from it. The game is also gorgeous and fact that all sprites and models seem to come from the early 00s makes it even more impressive.

I'm about to have my second go at Dead Money, I started it once before (when it came out) and gave up. It took some time last night to find an old savegame that might work, the recommendation is I go in at level 20, I don't have that, so 12 will have to do.

 

[Jack Of Owls]

Dead Money was one of the few gaming experiences I had where I came to truly fear traps and mines which always had overwhelming and deadly explosive power. Oh, sure, you got a warning beep every time you came within proximity of a device, but by the time you heard that first warning beep, you were pretty much already dead.

To me, it was avoiding the toxic clouds and fighting enemies without your inventory, so if you weren't a melee build you had a lot to lose.

If you prefer a Diablo flavor to your drugs, give Halls of Torment a shot.

Anyone played Elden Ring on the PS4 who can give an opinion on how it runs? I had been planning to wait until I get my PC back, but that's taking longer than I anticipated.

I did. Any semblance of life I had before is gone now

I've dipped my toe into HoT a little, but I still have 14 achievements to get in VS and then I can uninstall forever. So fucking addictive. Reminds me of when I was 12 and found a fun game on newgrounds

Forever till VS releases even more achievements?

It is done.

Finished Adeptus Mechanicus and now Dota is in rotation. Not sure what to play next. Maybe you can help?

I've got a first playthrough of Wrath and am just about to be introduced to the Crusade management mechanic. The whole thing is filling me up with dread. Haven't even really looked at it but it reminds me too much of the Kingdom in Kingmaker. Which I really did not like. Should I look at a guide or am I overthinking this? Just tell me how bad it is.

The others I'm considering are Weird West and Divinity 2. The Rogue Trader beta is also looking pretty juicy. Really close to buying that one.

Not sure if I am *that* invested

At 10 years you get even more ratings; just settle in for the long haul.

I guess those are the ones you also unlock early if you get patron status.

I wish I had "It's a matter of time"

Yep, mine turned 10 a few days ago and now I've got the whole garmut.

Sad times. Should have joined in 2007!

Finished my first big race in the career mode of TT Isle of Man RtE 2 (what a boring name) : two laps of the Snaefell Mountain Course for a whooping 120km. Did crash, of course, but I did manage not to finish last, learn many of the most dangerous turns, and have a couple duels at over 200km in the Manx moors that were satisfactory to the least. I'm started to get the hang of this game, it's overall very fun, the only annoyance being the awful behavior of bikes at low speed making recovery after a tight corner taken too slow difficult and ridiculous. But since it's fine when you do it properly that's not so bad in the end.

Figured out how to rate. I want to feel cool and hang out with the cool kids.

I've started Hexen 2, and once again I can only marvel at id software's CHAD technology. The game runs on the Quake 1 engine, and 26 years later you just hit .exe and it starts out of the box like it ain't no thang. I've never had any problem starting any game on the Quake 1-3 engines no matter my setup, and I can only expect this to remain this way, and I'm sure it'll also be the same for the Doom 3 engine in 20 years.
