I’m curious if this is a straight port or if they updated anything.


I think there are a few unchecked bots that do that. Every once in a while I’ll make a post or comment and it goes to 0 immediately.


I started and stopped Red Dead 2 several times over a few years, because while I enjoyed the story at first, it just wasn’t gripping. Then eventually you get to a point where the story picks up and you’re hooked. It has such a good ending.


I just finished playing this game on PC. I didn’t know you could get Ship of Harkinian to run on a Steam Deck! I would’ve liked that so much more than using a mouse and keyboard!


In a 2019 Ars Technica documentary video, Meier said he’d saved two of the Compaq Deskpro 386 computers, but one of them exploded when he tried to boot it up due to the dust in the power supply.

Lol that sucks. “Hey look guys! I found my old PC, let’s power it on” BOOM “Well… shit.”



The pantheons was the only thing I never beat. Shit’s crazy.


I loved To the Moon. Imposter Factory was great as well.


Do you need to have played the first one for the campaign to make sense?


I remember playing Full Throttle as a kid, but never beat it. Kind of tempted to go back through and see if I can figure it out as an adult.


That was my first thought as well! It is a perfect summer game to play over a week or two. Feels like it has a good, tight story.


Lol I am on the opposite side of the spectrum. I’ve unlocked everything possible with medals and am constantly looking for them to add new content for me to spend them on.


Maybe I’m in the minority here, but I’d gladly pay more for Weird Al enhanced hardware.


The key to XCOM is never to sprint (run with both halves of your action meter) if you can avoid it. Move with half the action, the fire or overwatch.


I enjoyed the XCOM-like parts, but couldn’t stand the running around, material gathering stuff. Just let me be super heroes non-stop battling bad guys, with a little bit of room between fights for upgrades. I don’t want to go fishing with Blade.


I recently started a new Stardew playthrough after leaving it for a couple years. Damn that game is so good. It’s like a perfect little dose of relaxation.


I’m about to leave town for the weekend so missing out on most of the new patch. Hope you dispense some liberty on my behalf!



So dumb question, but how do I get my hands on this? I’d love to play through Ocarina of Time again.


Is City Skylines made by Paradox? I had no idea. Those guys make everything!


Trogdor was a man. I mean, he was a dragon-man. Or maybe he was just a dragon. But he was still TROGDOR!


Lol I absolutely complained about the cost of songs in Rock Band and Guitar Hero. I started playing those games in Guitar Hero 2 and refused to ever pay extra for additional songs. I guess in my mind, that was vastly different than paying for stuff like Stellaris DLC since I felt like I was being nickled and dimed.

I take that back though. Now that I think about it I might have paid for the Trogdor song… unless that was included in the base game.


You know, I actually appreciate Paradox. They make top notch games like Stellaris, that are absolutely playable and complete by themselves, then add optional DLC while continuing to support the original game with updates. Some of their DLC is purely cosmetic, but they also add a lot of cool shit like “what if we had giant star sized dragons?”

For a game that’s 8 years old, I don’t mind dropping a few bucks on interesting DLC every now and then. All in all, I’d say I’ve spent about $50 on Stellaris DLC and have more than enough content to keep me busy for a while.

The Sims, on the other hand, is just fucking out of control. They’ve got expansion packs, game packs, stuff packs, and kits. Buying everything for The Sims 4 would be close to $1,100 as of a year ago - probably quite a bit more by now.


I haven’t played since the first couple months it came out in Early Access. It was a lot of fun, but there was nothing to do in the end game. I’m curious if they’ve added end game content that keeps it replayable.


True but KSP1 also had mod support from early on, allowing the community to make up for the game’s shortcomings.


It’s getting better, but I’m super disappointed they’re no where close to having interstellar stuff. That’s the whole reason I bought the game!


I wish I could go back and fight Psychomantis for the first time


I love Telltale. I heard they were actually still working on Wolf Among Us 2 but progress is slow and they have no date set.

Finally, it’s my 144Hz gaming monitor’s time to shine. I’ll be done like 50 years sooner than the rest of you losers.



I don’t really like the idea of splitting queues into people who are hardcore following the meta vs completely relaxed. But I also hate queueing for higher difficulties and getting matched with level 5 players who don’t have a Booster unlocked yet.


Just played tonight with using EAT for Chargers. Aiming for the leg strips the armor in one shot and then they’re easy to take down with your primary or another EAT after that.


Pretty much on any level 6 or above you’ll get more than 2 on every fight.


We had two members with EATs basically littering them on our path whenever the cooldown was off.

That’s a good idea. The cool down is so short, might as well use them constantly.


Where do you aim the EAT for Bile Titans? Just shoot em in the head?


Yeah, I feel like 1 is easy enough to deal with. Orbital rail strike will 1 shot anything. But once there are more than 2 chargers out, I felt like it is impossible.


I didn’t try all the new changes, but played for a couple hours yesterday and couldn’t find a good way to deal with Chargers. Anyone have better luck?


Video and title aren't mine. Just posting for discussion purposes.

Yeah, we were struggling with heavies playing just on Hard. We didn’t even bother to play anything higher than that.


I personally prefer that there isn’t one correct way to play the higher difficulties.

I agree that there should be many viable ways to at higher difficulties. I just think that nerfing the only way that seems to work without providing alternatives doesn’t seem like the way to go about making that happen.


Yeah I just made a similar comment. At the higher levels, you have more tank enemies than are practical to deal with using orbitals and airstrikes alone. The railgun was the only thing feasible to deal with wave after wave of tanks. Taking that away without giving alternatives is a major blow to level 7 and above.
