I couldn’t get into it either, but I loved mindustry (that someone else mentioned)

Or just flying around space in a tiny solar system

Playing shadows of doubt - a completely procedurally generated private investigator game. It’s basically a puzzle game without consistent solutions. Pretty fun so far.

It would definitely be nice if it was a lot deeper, but it has enough good points to entertain many people for a while.

the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement…

Tchia - it is a relaxing game, but I enjoyed it when I needed a break from intense games or intense life.

You can sail a boat, swim, glide, slide down hills, flip through the air AND transform into object and animals. When you are an object you can hop and throw yourself. When you are an animal you can do whatever they do, fly swim, run, see in the dark, poop on people, break coconuts, and more.

I’m not a samurai or a ninja and it would be fairly weird to see a white man in Japan at that time especially in those roles. I don’t need to see myself.

Also have these people never read a book where they aren’t represented by the main character? ( pre-edit: true, they probably don’t/can’t read)

Minecraft is the best-selling game of all time, but it’s looked pretty much the same for the entirety of its almost 14 year run

Usually games don’t change how they look no matter how long they’ve been out.

I’m not discounting that kids are kids and are still learning impulse control, but I’m trying to teach them good spending habits or at least consider the value of what they are spending money on before they buy. When I was a kid I didn’t have much money so I did carefully consider purchases ( to an annoying degree sometimes my wife says still). I haven’t forbidden them from buying anything, within reason, but they mostly have my frugality. I’m sure this is a journey lots of parents are on.

Local multiplayer would be nice, but I doubt it.

I’ve never let my kids play and luckily my kid’s friend’s dad also understands games and does research for things we don’t know and we stuck together on this decision and on fortnight for our kids that are too young for it.

It also helps that I’m staunchly against micro transactions and lecture my kids about how spending real money on a skin is stupid every chance I get.

10 minute trailer FYI

Do gloves (fingerless for climbing) do anything to help?

If you can play on a computer you can use a launcher and play any version you want.

Also a company that isn’t primarily a gaming company isn’t going to overtake them.

Or they can just post a short note update on what they are doing

To me it seemed to try to say that most research done so far on video games is mostly about how violence in games affects people, not the positive benefits. Which is probably true that the majority (for a while at least) was about that.

Tchia has a tiny bit of fighting, but felt like a cozy game the whole time I played it. It was slower paced and easy to just explore.

Outer wilds has a lot of mystery to solve but is very relaxing and pleasant.

Both games I felt perfectly happy to just enjoy the sights occasionally.

How do you get that setup? My steamed is mostly stock now.

on mobile, so I posted the description as it was easier

PD was the first fps game I remember that had bots so that you could play by yourself.

Immortals Fenyx Rising

One New Year’s Eve I was staying at a cousin’s house and stayed up playing assassins creed 1 just running around

The same although it might be cw3 or even particle fleet depending on the mood I’m in.

He’s the only developer I support on release of the game.

That’s a tough ask

I feel less likely to buy now because I know another sale will come soon when I’m ready. I’m not mad at it and less impulse buys.

How did they cheat? I’m not up to date.

#HEXEN!!

So it has been written

I was going to suggest mindustry if you didn’t.

And murder

Do you play the same games together often? In that case unless it is a couch co-op game (some are) you would need a second switch with the same game.

You can have multiple profiles on a switch and can share games between profiles on that switch. If it’s physical you can just play that game on any switch on any profile (just whoever has the cartridge). If it’s digital, if you buy it on the primary profile of a certain switch (make sure you do this) then all the other profiles on that switch can play that game too. If you want to share digital games between different switches it’s more complicated, but it requires cloud syncing and some other shenanigans I couldn’t explain.

They are all portable but you might be talking about the switch light which doesn’t have removable controllers. If you have a tv one for everyone, the you either need the controllers from the other switches or extra controllers (joy con style or normal controller style) to play together. Some games can be a lot of fun to play on the tv together. Check how many people a game can play.

I hope I answers some of your questions.

Has defense improved or declined?

I had a plug that went with rechargeable batteries or something, and it was great for a while, but then the connector failed and if I moved at all the gameboy would turn off. very frustrating.

Physical steam.

I’ve been waiting on a lot of windows games I could never play, but I’m planning on getting a steam deck sometime soon.

That’s a need project. Mostly art but I can see it, without the required location data, as some sort of photo tour for housebound people. Maybe pair it with a maps street view tour.

Titanfall was always a game I wanted to have a better and longer single player. It’s one of the few games I actually played a little bit of multiplayer for because I lived the concept so much.

Then I’ve been gaming wrong my whole life

Is that the point of the game?
