I installed bazzite recently and installation, setups, updating etc is easier than windows. Everything is easier. It’s not perfect but yeah, I am never looking back to windows even if I keep it installed as a dual boot… For now.

Yeah, I really hope I can convince my friends to buy it and play together. Since the areas are kind of open and you are free to split up an make your own way I think this is the way to play in multiplayer. If everyone keep together all the time I think it will feel a bit slow since you probably have to pick your own materials for upgrades etc, not shared. All depends on how they do enemies too. If they do scaling it will kind of suck to split up.

Pickups stayed on the ground is the only thing I remember but there was other funky stuff. Maybe we should give it another go with me hosting. Seem to be the only person able to do so without someone having problems.

Me and my friends tried to play the ascend but it was unplayable because of desync everywhere. Ever had that problem? Since then I think it may have been the player hosting the server because we always have problems depending on who is being the host.

Are you telling me there is going to be factorio in real world now? This is the best idea for a mobile AR game I have read. But scrap the natural disasters. Doesn’t sound like they add any fun.

Don’t think it’s a game for me or my friends but I am very happy for the devs to have this success with their new game. They deserve it considering how good their previous game was even if it wasn’t as hyped. Very passionate people.

Thank you for another update. Love the covers. My child is often playing around with my switch boxes. Maybe should look at doing some more boxes because it looks good in the bookshelf.

I think the game is great right now. Sure, there are things to do still but they have a combat patch planned and i believe multiplayer is coming with that. Can’t wait to play it with my friends.

Loot is a part of it but you can upgrade whatever to whatever item level and change stats (randomly) so finding the perfect item is not needed. Just get whatever works for you.

A reason for lack of updates are that they had a lot of other things to do, like getting independent from their publisher and promised more rapid updates in the future.

They sell to gaming junkies like me. I am always looking for a new thrill and never finish any games :(

Installed bazzite today. Was easier than installing windows.

I am not 100% sure on this but i belive that you could buy 1 game and then share it with your family members on switch and everyone (except the owner) could play it at the same time. This is now changed with virtual cards and only 1 person can play a game at any one time. Note that i do only own one switch so I am not a 100% sure about this.

Steam lets anyone in family play anything except playing the same game as the owner iirc. So it is very friendly to sharing whereas just a year ago or something the owner of the game you wanted to “borrow” had to not be playing anything for you to be able to play it.

Nintendo made sharing less friendly. Steam made it more friendly. Am I wrong?

Thank you for writing these. Love to read them.

I tried dworak for awhile and just like switching from windows it is a bit rough sometimes. Every game you play have to change keybindings as a person who play a lot of different games it became too much. But writing was so good. So much easier and intuitive. Only took like a week or something to get into it.

Wish I had the patience to learn all units and their counters. Game grinded to a halt for me because of this even though I like it. Will give it another go some time this year.

I don’t buy a lot of games that have pre-order any more but no, I don’t. If I want to buy it before it is released and have a pre-order I do it the same day or just the day before release but I think I will stop with this too.

Yes!! Saw this game a while back and been waiting with anticipation!

I often sort and read negative reviews, the ones that are well written. Then if it’s still interesting i read a couple of positive ones to get a better sense.

Works for me.

Just reading random ones is pretty bad indeed. Gotta be source critical like always.

Brought my steamdeck to our new years party and managed to snag 2 others to play brotato in multiplayer for a bit. I thought it would be more popular to play some games since that is how we all know each other. Otherwise it would have been Factorio: space age.

Almost 2k here

I thought i would wait but since you get your money spent on EA as in-game currency also I bought it. Also noticed that I had a ton of stash tabs already as they transfer from the first game also. In days of scummy microtransactions and moneygrabbing companies this was a really nice move of GGG.

6 months is the plan.

Did it change anything from the release? I know I beat it on my first try but I also remember that I was lucky with something because of something. This was in the first week of the release.

Factorio.

Dwarf fortress but I haven’t played that in a long time. It will outlast most other games however.

I was also too young when I got this game and it is one I would like to return to. Don’t have my psx any more either :(

Most games now have all the “qol” features that remove the need to communicate if that is even possible at all. It is a sad world we live in where everything has to go faster all the time. More dopamine per minute.

I also was in for the first couple of years in wow and even played Dark Age of Camelot before that and some Ultima online also. It was a different world back then. As a gamer I had all the time in the world to sink into these games. As an adult and a parent I got no time to sit down for hours upon hours to play like I did back then but I wish that kids that grow up today should have the same opportunity as I did to experience this.

I am also not a fan of building stuff and making it look nice. Just follow the easy rules to make a liveable cube and call it a day. That said I think terraria is the only game where I would consider actually spending some time making it look a bit nicer since it is so easy to do. I remember last time after completing the game I looked at some other peoples builds and got inspired.

The game required more from its players back then. I mean gl hf to solo your way to 50 in daoc :)

You sure? Horse armor bullshit began in a single player game.

I think you should try “The slormancer”. It got the gear quality of life stuff solved. You can go pretty much any spec of whatever you want and make it work. Just have to work a bit to get there :)

Pretty fun game but after a couple of plays it gets a bit repetitive in the early game, something the dev has said will be fixed in the future. Totally worth the price.

Who knows… I think all the ones you can buy are ugly while the free ones from seasons are pretty cool. Would never buy anyway if they changed that but I am happy as it is now.

Imagine saving money before a game releases. Oh no.

Played shapes2 and it is really fun but for me it feels heavier. When i play some Factorio mods there are times when it gets overwhelming and shapes have the same problem for me. Takes a couple of days or weeks to recover.

Also the rebuild everything thing in shapes 2 is not really true. When you get a few hours into the game the stuff you deliver is stuff you want to deliver forever to gain operator levels. The secondary stuff that isn’t forever stuff is what makes me give up. Fatigue of rebuild or something… Good thing we are all different :)

Don’t know if it is as bad as everyone is crying. I think most people forgot about quality stuff (which I know isn’t mandatory to play with, sure). You should also have more space for more lasers with the new power generator.

And while roaming the area with lasers is fun, how engaging is that in the long run? I like the change.

I looked in the game on the mod list. It is a mess and i couldn’t find any sorting or filtering. Maybe I just missed it?

I love this game. Made the walks with my kid more fun and longer. The fact that I only have to check the game once or twice a day depending on what I am doing is perfect.

Been playing this for a couple of months and I can say that the battery drain is next to nothing in my experience. No need to keep the app open to track steps.

Looks fun.
