Every mc pvp server I looked at had wonderful “Supporter packs”


Brain says bad. Because I’ll be there, working on trying to get a new shiny ship and then the brain is like… “You make 40$ an hour overtime. That’s a lot more ship than doing this.” or "instead of checking in on your skill queue every day for two years to make sure it’s optimal $300 worth of plex and you have your dream toon. "

And yeah… I know myself. I need to avoid games that make that lil voice pop up.


My brain is like “I played that game just like… last year right?”

Nah bro, you played that in high school, which was most certainly not last year.


I mean… in eve you were allowed to straight up buy perfect characters or skill injectors, then the isk to buy a ship. So you could have a newbie with the same character power as a 3 year old player.

My brain does not like grinding games with strong P2W aspects, it messes with me.


I see gold is for sale in the shop, is store bought gold a big influence in the game? Or pretty irrelevant?


Any full loot/pvp base building mmos out there?
So I really liked games like: Wurmonline (Never really panned out the way I wanted, last I checked years ago no one really pvp'd) Salem the Game (Not the popular social deduction game) Eve Online (I hype fixate hard on Eve so gotta stay away from it. Also the P2W was disgusting) Rust, but it not being an mmo was always a turn off as individual servers seemed to always have weird issues. Maybe it's better now though. Any suggestions for MMO's I should check out? I wanna be able to be a little guy and built a little house, then join a group and go raiding. No pay to win stuff if it's possible. Any good games like that out and about?

27 blind accessible games were made for this game jam, give them a try!
A lot of the devs went way outside their comfort zone to make these games, and all feedback/rating would be super appreciated! Also a good way to learn about how games can be made blind accessible!

Yes.

People who spend 10s of thousands of dollars on micro transactions do need help.

Said help probably needs to come at a government level banning things that were designed in a computer lab to be digital Crack.


If you like randomly made stories, you can try Rimworld.

You will quickly find yourself asking very difficult questions. Is taking on the cripple something you can afford to do? Is using medicine on a less valuable colonist smart? Do you let some of your colonists starve, or start a war with friendly neighbors? Cannibalism will make your neighbors hate you and some of your colonists might rebel over it, but that’s better than some of them starving… right?



I clicked it and the ad (Before my ad blocker kicked on) was for Eve online.

So slightly less modern games are chores as well!


I kind of assumed he was like… mostly owner?

Like I sorted their YT videos by popular and after four pages I gave up looking for something that isn’t zero punctuation.


Gonna be honest, since it seemed like Yahtzee was the only one who pulled in views I kind of always assumed he was like the channel owner? You know “Yahtzee’s shenanigans and he funds his friends trying to do stuff hoping something will stick”

But I’m just a super casual but long term watcher. I watch every zero punctuation, and like… yeah that’s it. Been doing that for a decade.

Wild they managed to piss off the reason people care about them.


Yeah I’ve been subbed for… dearie me, ten years? Basically only for zero punctuation. I watched it when I was too poor to buy all the games I wanted and I got a kick out of him roasting games I couldn’t afford as hot trash.


Like they said the DE version is alive and well!

Then ten years ago we had HD edition.

We even have a pretty good competitive scene with full time pros and tournaments.


Also isn’t he making a whole other game???

Like, this is Brandon Sanderson level of “I relax from working on my projects by working on another project”
