Yeah, I find I need to read a book or find some other way to engage my brain - woodworking, painting, gardening, etc… The enjoyment comes back.


Why does the gif look exactly like AI made it? I’m getting uncanny vibes from it for some reason.


From the article, it sounds like he knew they were a minor and still leaned into the conversations. Why? Why TF would you even be curious about it?


Yeah, they really went in hard with Suicide Squad, to be perfectly frank, the only good thing to come out of suicide squad was the Peacemaker show on HBO.


Steam is a prime example of how long a product/service can actually last when you’re not constantly changing the product/service. Funny how when you don’t change a product and keep service great, it doesn’t seem to go through enshitiffication. What are the odds…?


Yeah. But it’s also put together by a group of misfits that barely cobbled a game together. Not a decades long gaming empire.

" He built it in a cave, with spare parts!"

It’s also worth noting, that this is an early access game.


Awesome that they are actually aiming to fixes known issues instead of following in the footsteps of Ark.


Me and my wife played Ark, and this is like Ark…but better. It’s everything that I wish Ark was and everything I wish Pokemon was. It’s a fantastic starting point, and I’m really hoping they put some love into it.


I’m shocked that it was even able to be activated for most and keyboard… Even with tools. :(

Why do people have to be such losers?



You need to go check out this game. It’s like the No Man’s Sky situation all over again but on a MUCH, WORSE scale. To put it into context, imagine Bethesda promised Starfield, and delivered Asteroids, but it only sometimes worked.

What Fntastic put out is borderline criminal for the price they asked you to pay.




I just busted the Lead Seal Yesterday. Fuck me is Pioneer hard. I don’t know how you’re supposed to do it on harder difficulties. It’s like the storm hits and then everybody’s negative 16 resolve, and I just start pissing away workers.


It’s cool that it’s in first personview, but it’s a lot more difficult than Factorio given that you don’t get a topdown view and will struggle to understand factory layout once it gets to the more complicated recipes.

There’s also a LOT of running around looking for resource nodes or trying to diagnose inevitable power issues.



I literally just set up Project64 and SNES9X yesterday lol. Nice timing. I tried Higan, but couldn’t get it to run games and got tired of trying to fix it. 9X works well enough for me to get my nostalgia fix.




XCOM: Original allows for insane strategy. It’s dated, I don’t disagree, but it had so much more strategy and immersion than atleasr the first modern XCOM. You could build your own bases, you got raided, you had to find enemy bases and maintain funding throughout world map. The game was legendary.

One of the most fun being, use flight armor and 2x alien grenade launchers. Breach top most point on battleship to expose command center, and then nuke the ship commander and body guards with second launcher. Swoop in with forces. Win.

Ignore the LoZ. I forgot it was PC games only. Whoops lol


Thanks!

Also, that list is terrible. Where the fuck is Elden Ring, Polygon!? No LoZ, any of them? XCOM: UFO Defense is the first and the absolute best of all XCOM entries…by far.

Outer Wilds, Hollow Knight, Subnautica? These aren’t even old games…

And Satisfactory beat out Factorio? Lol, m’kay Polygon…sure.


It’s been around for a LONG time. And it’s almost a lifestyle. You can’t functionally play Eve and expect to do anything with it if you need time for other things…like a family…or friends.


The unvested shares portion is absolute bullshit.

"Yeah. That was one of your benefits. We’re just going to take that back now.



We want you to be well-educated, smart, and be a critical thinker that can think fo…wait…no, stop…not like that. We want you to critically think…but also arrive at the same correct conclusions as us…wtf, are you doing?


So, so besides the story, what’s the difference between this and the Divinity games? It appears that it’s pretty much the exact same engine, doing the exact same thing, using the exact same functionality. The Divinity games were okay, but it’s not like they raised the bar or did anything ground breaking…how is this any different?

That said, have we just not had a good turn-based strategy game in so long that people are like, holy fuck this is so new and refreshing!


But then the media post won’t be totes edgy and get people to click on it…



Maybe Techtonica? It just came out on Gamepass. It’s like Satisfactory but in a cave and you can’t just build anywhere… honestly, it’s just another factory game though.

You play Dyson Sphere Program yet? It’ll scratch a lot of itches. Riftbreaker was pretty fun as well. A little meh at the higher levels though.


I refuse to even touch No Man’s Sky. I’m sure the game is fine at this point, but I refuse to support a company that thought they could get away with what they attempted to do. Just like KSP2 - sure, they labeled it “Early Access” but they charged full game prices for that thing back in February. It’s been half a year later, and there has been literal zero movement on their release roadmap.
