Civilization 6, Cities Skylines 1 and Space Engineers

And most other manufacturers too for following the stupid decision to remove the headphone jack.

We need a Command & Conquer Remastered style treatment.

Tipping is like paying for DLC / microtransactionw but not getting anything out of it.

Yeah… NAH!

Never tried any of the Ultima series. :p

Origin “We create worlds”. They definitely did with the Wing Commander series. Played a lot of WC 3, 4 as well as Privateer.

I don’t think anyone mentioned Lionhead Studios. Black and White was fun. Sadly it’s in copyright limbo if I’m not mistaken.

Also played a lot of Civilization 1 from Microprose back in the day.

Or … adult mode 😜

I would be nice if the game detects that it’s been quite some time since I last played, and give a quick refresher of the keybinds as well as brief rundown of recent missions completed / story-so-far.

Well, not all the gameplay loops have been fully fleshed out yet which is why it is still in the alpha stage. Database resets happen as festures are added.

I don’t know if i will go so far as to say they are incentivised to keep it in alpha.

You purchase the base game which comes with a starter ship. In the game, you can do missions or do cargo trading to earn in-game money which you can use to buy ships.

You can absolutely use real world cash to purchase additional ships, which funds the development of the game. You don’t have to if you don’t want to. Almost all the ships can be purchased with in-game currency.

The main plus point for purchasing ships with real money is they are acvound bound and will stay with you after a database reset.

The fact that when you purchase a game on Steam and it gets aasociated to your account is a form of Digital Rights Mamagement. Not as bad compared to Denuvo (depending on who you ask), but it’s still technically DRM, just not as intrusive.

Game purchases on GOG on the other hand, while the purchase is associated to your account, the game can be installed on all “your” computers and can be run simultaneously.

Depends on thw game and what sort of mod support it has. Obviously on Steam if it has Steam workshop support. DRM free on GOG is good but at the same time Steam has been doing quite of lot of good things related to gaming on Linux and I would like them to continue doing it.

Good to know (regarding Lutris and GOG). I’ve always stuck with Steam because of the ease of running games on Linux).

Time to kick some ass and chew bubblegum. And I’m all outta gum.
