Yup, tons of games out there for cheap!

And yes, Space Marine 2 follows 1. But it’s not exactly complex, you can very much enjoy 2 without playing 1.

In 1, youre a Space Marine who kills bad guys. Also you get betrayed by the brass.

In 2, youve gotten re-promoted and are back to killing bad guys.

Yuup, there we go. Good catch

“ignoring RTS per OP”

Mechanicus is a great tactics game with a BALLER soundtrack

I haven’t gotten to play Deff Skwadron but Shootas Blood and Teef is a real fun sidescrolling shooter, I should revisit it

Space Marine 1 and 2 are both great, 2 has a solid community and frequent updates (also PRAISE TZEENTCH)

Boltgun is honestly one of the better DOOMclones ive played, up there with Project Warlock (YET MORE PRAISE TO TZEENTCH AS IT SHOULD BE)

I feel like im forgetting some (ignoring RTS per OP), will edit if I remember

OH theyre coming out with a 40k version of Vampire Survivors that looks legit

Space Hulk is pretty well loved, you may like it

How did i forget Darktide, I have so many hours in that…

Dont forget all the fun Ork/Red Gobbo books. Mike Brooks is a treasure. Definitely agree on Infinite and Divine too.

But yeah a lot of HH is pretty meh even if youre into it.

Accurate, although there are exceptions. Betrayer + First Heretic come to mind, those were fun.

My Switch Lite with Diablo 2, Brotato and Balatro will last me till heat death

Some of the best gas station food out there haha

Lol yup

Do Weigel’s next, theyre spreading like crazy

This was entertaining, thanks

I could certainly use some teammates in a few games my friends dont play, thanks for the heads up :) seems like a nice community

Lies of P seems like it fits most criteria. It’s much less “build your DnD character” than Dark Souls, you have a handful of options but the focus is more on level design and boss fights than customizability from what I’ve played of it. Like Bloodborne but with a narrower focus.

Oooh, thats not long at all! I wasnt expecting it till 2026. Hell yeah

Shattered Pixel Dungeon for some great (truly) roguelike dungeon crawling.

+1 for Unciv, although I haven’t played much yet. I really should…

Also, Balatro

Sorry if these are all super basic

The menu inputs require both hands on console, if it wasnt for that its pretty good for it. I played it a lot when I was holding my baby, bottle in one hand and controller in the other.

God i wish I could map buttons on ps5

I know right? That was like… a lifetime ago. I haven’t thought about it in ages. Im kinda intrigued.

Thanks for clarifying, it had been a while and I wasn’t near a save file

Yeah but you can remove cards as well, can’t you?

Gonna whup my ass i tell you what

Hot damn, not bad

But yeah every major studio sees these games and thinks underpaying devs, union busting, and AI garbage are gonna get them there somehow.

Meanwhile Steam keeps making self-made millionaires who busted ass on a passion project people adore for years. Like the Balatro guy, it makes me happy to think about and I hope he’s doing well.

I know tons of network engineers and sysadmins making bank mostly from home. If you got in when it was good you were set.

They should’ve just made that into a movie, id watch a fun sci-fi heist film

Where had the marketing budget gone, the game was shut down like a week after launch

There was a big run-up in the prior months

Whaaaat

Mfers I bought the phone, I do whatever the hell i want with it

I think my friends and I spent a good week getting super baked and just driving around on moons lol

I know right? Especially back then, there weren’t a lot of games where you could drive around other worlds like that. I loved it, it felt like actual astronaut shit

Driving the Mako (is that what it was called? God its been ages) was so damn fun for some reason.

Nah, Elden Ring got me hooked. I made it through my first run and went back to this and Bloodborne pretty much immediately, now im juggling them haha

Im really loving it now that its clicked

Me over here on my first playthrough like “Yay I made it to Undead Parish!” Lmao

Shoutout to FromSoft still having Bloodborne servers ready for me on my very first runthrough 10yrs after launch

Im on board

Yeah I’ve been on a Soulsborne kick the past few months but Ill pop on for this for a few days at least. I had to show up for the invasion of Super Earth too ofc.

I usually catch up in a week or two and im good for a bit. I love the game but I’ve got a nice rotation going

That’s what I’ve been thinking.

Yeah sometimes their choices are bad, that is like 1/3 of the whole point of government. To stop businesses from just doing whatever nonsense they want.

Omg that was ten years ago

Oh this is quite old my friend, early Gamergate years

Ok

Oh nice, thanks!

Can you tune volume settings per app? All the time im driving to a job with music playing and then Maps SCREAMS at me.
