Dunno if it’s MP compatible yet, but the newly released Day One mod attempts to simulate the first day of the Knox Event. Tons of NPCs (using a new engine instead of the built in AI), bombs dropping, different factions, etc. Crazy experience thus far, and you’ll probably die faster if you’re not careful.

Still can’t wait for build 42 tho.

I’d be curious to see if you can install the patch that reintroduces the E3 graphics and how that’s handled on the Deck. Not sure on the how-to with SteamOS.

I figured that was the case, but what’s the fun of modding without some screwed up textures, some futzing around with the 254 esp limit, and a couple of annoying CTDs?

I never finished The Witness either, but I kinda wished I would have, as the philosophical nature and puzzles were both very engrossing, such a unique take on the “walking simulator” style of game. Granted, it was much more than that, and I’d actually compare it closer to Myst and Obduction than such. The puzzles were repetitive but just incentive enough to be engaging and twisted in just the right way, though they got devilishly difficult later on. Sucks about the motion sickness though. Wonder if there was an .ini swing which could’ve turned the filter off?

Though, all in all, this was definitely a difficult “separate the art from the artist” scenario.

Not sure how or if it’s mess up current saves or not, but if you’ve not considered it yet, is would recommend trying it A Tale Of Two Wastelands. Merges FO3’s Capital Wasteland with FNV’s Mojave via train ride. Keeps all the mechanics as well.

Braid was a solid game all its own, and a remaster certainly wasn’t needed (yet or at all). The Witness was freaking phenomenal, and I hope there will be other iterations of games like it to come. Blow can go blow away though. He’s an anti-vaxxer and Covid conspiracy theorist, and that is something I can write off as anyone worth acknowledging. Plenty of other amazing games in the sea.

Oh, if that was considered a lot. Was just reading comments the other day of someone with 5000+

This is what happens when one mod has patches for other mods… I’m looking at Jk’s Skyrim. I think it makes up 100+ esps on its own with all the compatibility patches.

Same with the VR version. While I could’ve made it easy in myself and used a Wabbajack modlist, instead I have a monstrosity of 1100 mods that seems to work for the most part. Only one CTD in 10 hours lol. Still my favorite VR game overall.

There was already an HD remaster released back in 2011… I’m all for crisper graphics, bugfixes and the like, as long as the core gameplay and charm from the beloved original is still there. Still also holding out for BG&E2, but that feels as close to vaporware as it stands.

Also, fuck Ubisoft and their craptastic launcher. Main reason I have strayed from majority of their titles. Maybe it’s a little pedantic, but I’m in the “Steam or no DRM” group if I bother with a game.

While I still “subscribe” to Humble, I don’t recall the last time I actually unpaused a month. Maybe this is the push I needed. Their offerings have been mostly subpar after they bought Humble. Not knocking the indie devs, I think my gaming tastes have changes over the years. Also, I don’t need coupons for DLC, please and thank you.

While it was extremely limited due to the tech at the time, I truly enjoyed this and SimCopter for the ability to drive/fly around your created cities. Would love to have seen some semblance of physics included. I just recall any cars you drove up/down hills just conformed to the terrain. Was still extremely fun.

My roommate is heavily holding out her next playthrough until 1.6 drops. Here’s hoping Stardew Valley Very Expanded gets updated soon after.

I’m heavily modding Skyrim VR currently and now that .esl support was back ported, I’m hovering around 400 mods. It’s joyous, and I’m afraid how much I may break at the same time. Nexus Collections are helping as well. Maybe I’ll test MO2 one of these days.

I have never completed or even come close to finishing the game. And I was a day one 11/11/11 purchase lol.

You should check out the Brutal Doom add-on for Chex Quest. Just be wary as the Doom modding rabbit hole runs deep.

I’ll have the check out the HD version, looks pretty cool so far!

Been pretty happy with my month old Radeon RX 7800XT. 16GB VRAM, holds its own in Starfield and Cyberpunk (ooh the raytracing…), and haven’t had any issues with it.

Looks to be around £550 there.

Cyberpunk minus Phantom Liberty, been too long since I’ve played properly.

Skyrim VR with all the fixins, maxed the esp limit, no esl support 😞

I looked through most the comments and didn’t see it, but Gris. Beautiful pastel color palette and a mount story about finding oneself / gaining your voice back. Very existential but in a passive way. I’d like to think of it as a Metroidvania, as you have powers to gain that open up new areas, but there’s little to no actual fighting.

So far the mod works, but I need to sit down and confirm that mod is the one that freezes up the engine. I’m mostly playing with Fury’s mod collection, but maybe it’s the few extra ones that are tripping it up.

+1 for Noita. I’m not enough of a masochist to play without the Dead isn’t Dead mod. Although lately it’s been freezing up on any deaths. Maybe one of these days I’ll start playing it as more than a glorified physics sandbox lol.

I’d hold off playing more then. Juicehead and others have a pretty hefty update on what the future holds for the Phantom Liberty update and revamp of core systems. Sounds like they’ll be bringing in a more living world akin to how people were expecting it to operate a la GTA.

Just bought way too much stuff over the Steam sale.

• American Truck Simulator. Finally bought the newest map DLC for it (Texas, Oklahoma), and installed quite a few truck/car/map mods for it. Fun to just… drive. Deliveries can be quite challenging. Also dip into ETS2 ever so often. Road style and architecture is quite a nice change of pace. Play primarily in VR with full lowkey sim-rig.
• Project Zomboid. Too good and too many mods. Fun to just see how long I can roam around in an RV or Jaap Nomad :P
• Dying Light. Played the hell out of this pirated last year, finally bought it with all the extra DLC. Worth it.
• Noita. Got back into watching FuryForged and his insane playthroughs. Can’t decide it it’s more fun to watch or play.
• Dead Cells. Haven’t dipped my toes into Soulsborne style gaming much, as I rather like a more relaxed “I’m in danger but not always gonna die”, but the difficulty here is nice. The art style really drew me in too.
• Control. Stuck at the Benicoff TV / Salvador battle, but overall really enjoying it. Downside is I’m having to play the pirated version due to 505’s screw-up with the “Ultimate Edition” fuckup with Humble.
• Voidigo. Fun & very colorful roguelite twitch shooter. Animations wonderful and all characters are top notch, weapon variety is vast.

Mostly PC based stuff. Currently just started Unpacking, chill little cozy game. Been playing Voidigo for my fun twitch shooter fill. American/Euro Truck Simulator in VR for my sit back and drive fill. Skyrim VR for immersion.
