I was curious about this too, particularly if and how well the Meta Quest 3 mirroring/tethering or whatever they call it works.

I see, that makes sense. Thanks!

Technically, probably yes, but you can buy old, opened games on eBay. I doubt you can do the same with GOG games. Digital media is much harder if not impossible to resell.

How weird, I wonder if there’s something wrong with my GOG account? I don’t think I’ve received an email from them in years?

Oh, for sure. My friend ended up setting up a permanent server. It’s pretty cool because anyone of us can jump in and play at any time. Although anytime someone does it starts the clock ticking forward, which leads to consequences, as I’m sure you’re aware.

Sorry to hear. By the way, you don’t even need to set up a server. Anyone can host within the game itself, so it can be a spur of the moment thing. Of the ones who own it, have any of them tried playing it, especially multiplayer? What the game lacks in terms of advanced graphics it more than makes up with gameplay, atmosphere, and depth. Good luck!

Amazing game, especially in multiplayer. It’s one of my most played games in online game sessions with family and friends.

I would have agreed up until about a week ago. There was a news story a few days ago about how there are people in LA renting various vehicles parked on public streets for people to live in. Then another story about how there are actually thousands of such “rentals” in LA. I think highrise slums might be a notch or two down from the current dystopia.

Yikes! Thanks for letting me know. We have not run into that yet. Good reason to rotate save games each time we play. We enjoy it though. Worth the money for sure if you enjoy the genre and art style.

Here are some that our group has enjoyed:

Project Zomboid: amazingly vast and deep Zombie long-term survival isometric game. If you’re into this, you’ll play for hundreds of hours. The cost-playtime ratio is off the charts.

Heave Ho: super crude 2D graphics, but absolutely hilarious gameplay

The Ascent: beautiful cyberpunk-themed isometric shooter

Broforce: very entertaining pixel-art 2D platformer/shooter (think in the style of Contra, but funnier) - we played this through to the end, which is rare for us

Overcooked: very entertaining 3D co-op cooking isometric game (you’re running a restaurant kitchen)

Unrailed: similar to overcooked, but you’re keeping a train running instead of cooking

SWAT 4: old 3D FPS, but still good. I think this is only at GOG, not Steam

Honorable mention: Hidden in Plain Sight. While not a co-op game, it’s relatively friendly, funny, and not heavily slanted to make better players run away with it because it doesn’t rely heavily on reflexes and coordination. Check it out if you can. Works great for couch play too (everyone playing on the same computer/monitor).

Edit: all of these handle at least 4 players, which was a requirement for us. Some of them, like Zomboid and SWAT, can handle more than 4. I’m not sure how high the others can go.
