MicroProse has really been filling a niche I’ve missed with these “old style” games. I mean, maybe an odd post to comment this specifically on, because this is and old game, but their recent releases in general seem to harken back to an older era of gaming that I’ve missed.
Hey, maybe we’ll get lucky and they’ll get to try their hands at another MechWarrior!
Truly a watershed moment for the enshittification of microtransactions
Ah Paradox is finding their model of releasing unfinished games and getting around to solving it later less appealing!
That is a little disappointing, actually, as Paradox made some damn good games this way. Crusader Kings 2, Hearts of Iron 4 and Stellaris were all made like that.
Thank goodness the program told me I have value after Tyler stopped replying once I showed him my asshole.
Buddy if I buy Panther Marten lures off Ali Express or from Dicks they come from the same factory in the same packaging at the same quality, but one costs $1.12 and the other $7.99.
It’s being manufactured in China anyway, I’m just avoiding the beak wetting Dicks and Walmart do to pay their shareholders.
Plus it ain’t like the US actually has any qualms with slave labor, just look at all the industries that take advantage of prison labor in the States.
Bullshit! I wanna buy cheap fishing gear for a tenth of the cost at Dicks.
Better get some rods and reels en route before this goes into effect.
There’s some dedicated KSP2 fans and a modding scene of sorts there, but I personally prefer 1 and I would never recommend someone pay for 2. Tho they could try and play it anyhow. It’s a shame the development stopped, I think it had the bones to be better than KSP1.
When I wanna play KSP, I boot up CKAN and play KSP1, for what that’s worth
Fuck Take-Two, after what they did to KSP2 they should crumble to dust. Ain’t buying shit from them ever again and neither should anyone else until they learn a lesson.
Oh hell yes! So looking forward to playing this.
I think the Dark Souls games have kinda earned an undue reputation for being unapproachably hard. They’re really not all that tricky once you learn that death isn’t a huge loss condition, just a step in the journey. I initially found them frustrating, but once I learned to not be bothered by dying and simply try again, I found an immense joy in exploring the worlds and challenges within.
Some bosses I beat first try, others will take me an afternoon or a few days to beat, but I have fun with it either way. Different strokes for different folks and all that, but I think Dark Souls and it’s like are good lessons on how to get over feeling bad about “losing” and just enjoy the game.
Plus, you can always explore areas to gather up whatever you need to level up and slowly get marginally stronger as you become more familiar with your character and tweak it to your liking.
The response that it’s too hard has been weird to me. I’m not very good at these sorts of games but it hasn’t been terribly tricky compared to other parts of the base game. And I’m having a lot of fun with it.
I do think the advice of taking advantage of the balancing mechanics they literally put in the DLC to make it challenging and help mitigate that is solid.
I think you should try it. I think an hour is appropriate for a lot of the story beats if you have a decent memory, though maybe an hour and a half would be better suited to some of the more involved parts. A lot of this is affected by your reading speed. There’s a lot of reading.
For what it’s worth, I also played it in bursts, but probably something like 2 hr sessions. There’s a lot of rough, serious material in that game and I found it a lot to process at once, so I took breaks between sessions fairly often.
Crucially, I said paying for, but also, naw prolly not.
After what they did to KSP2, I ain’t paying for another Take-Two game.
Yes! I loved AC6 and I’m eager for more Armored Core. I’m glad it did well enough that they’re gonna make more
I’m not so sure I’d call myself a “tankie”, but I’d like a $12k new car and if it were an EV, even better. I recently paid more for a used car! Cars, like everything else, have gotten so stupidly expensive. It would have been nice to see one thing actually become more affordable because I know wages ain’t gonna increase accordingly for a long time.
Been playing this with my boyfriend and it’s great fun for coop play. It runs fairly well on his steam deck, too.
We’re just about to beat it, though, so hearing there’s a NG+ mode is kind of exciting.
I wonder what the new edition will bring
It would appear that is exactly what I’m saying as long as the reader lacked any reading comprehension skills.
Why use an AI? Just like… take a selfie
Dang I really thought the title of this game was Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Won’t Let Indy Shoot Dogs for a hot minute I need to get some more coffee
