It's still got that magic arcadey feel the first one had

I prefer 2 to 1 tbh

I liked the flying and combat but not the rogue-like elements, that genre is very hit or miss for me

[winter yew]

i prefer open world to rogue like

i dont like resetting when i die

[primal loom]

same

[winter yew]

i didnt play much conquest on project wingman for that reason

[primal loom]

I don't like permadeath either 😅

I get that

I didn't mind conquest so much because you get to keep the planes you've unlocked

[winter yew]

ye, it wasnt bad, i just always treat games like project wingman if they dont have multiplayer as one off experiences

the story is always the best the first time you play it

[primal loom]

oh absolutely

[winter yew]

it will never be as good as it was when you played it the first time

[primal loom]

I finished AC 04 recently and man it was great

[winter yew]

so good, as far as ace combat 5 goes

[primal loom]

I doubt I'll play it much again though since I finished the campaign

[winter yew]

its a fan favorite for everyone

but i personally think its over rated

i mean its good, dont get me wrong but i think there are better ace combat games

[primal loom]

I wonder what they're gonna do for the next one

[winter yew]

im hoping that they forgo a story driven ace combat and go for an ace combat mmo

there was an ace combat mmo for ps3 called ace combat infinity

it was a multiplayer coop game, that also had pvp

and like 250 different aircrafts spanning the entire ace combat universe including some aircraft that got cut from the games

it was fantastic, free to play with optional paid content, i really wish they didnt cancel it

and it had lots of references to the ace combat games

as well as all the soundtracks from all the games

but if they do a story driven one, i dont know where they would go with it honestly

because ace combat 3 already told the story of what happens around 20 years after the events of 7

and ace combat x also takes place after the events of ace combat 7

i think they should do a game about nordennavic, there was technically a game about nordennavic already, but it was a top down game for blackberry phones, the northern wings one i mentioned

they should do a proper game about nordennavic and its black ops squadron, and their unique planes

[primal loom]

I would love to see co-op elements in the next game

A flight combat game is the perfect setup for co-op

[austere lance]

It's a looter shooter that doesn't fuck its playerbase like Destiny does, plus it's just fun

Plus there's no class system

[winter yew]

pretty much why i wanna try vtol vr, has coop stuff and the maps are huge

[austere lance]

Plus it's open world

[primal loom]

The Destiny 2 DLC sunsetting was wild

I was just getting into some of that content with some friends at the time and then it went byeeeee

[winter yew]

vtol vr doesnt have a bangin soundtrack though, so id be missing that

[weak tiger]

That was probably the worst move they’ve done tbh especially since theres barely any indication of that when buying

[primal loom]

Just gotta play the Ace Combat soundtracks on your own playlist 😎

[winter yew]

fair enough

ace combat soundtrack gets you hyped up for anything though

[austere lance]

DLC sunsetting? Try entire campaign sunsetting, they straight up removed the whole vanilla campaign from the OG release 💀

[weak tiger]

I love D2 so much but I disagree with that move. Something something game size but at least that’s supposedly the only time it’ll happen

[primal loom]

whaaat

I didn't know that

[winter yew]

would listen to them while i played ace combat 7 multiplayer, or battlefield 4 multiplayer flying the jet, or any other multiplayer game involving planes

and just crush the enemy team

worked for elite dangerous cqc as well

and star wars squadrons

[austere lance]

Yeah uh, the Red War campaign went bye bye

[winter yew]

i got to play it, i got to face down against our main man ghaul

[austere lance]

Hell yeah

[winter yew]

i actually respected ghaul as an opponent tbh

[austere lance]

Same

[winter yew]

he didnt try and force his way into getting the light

he was waiting to be chosen

[austere lance]

And then I killed him with two Celestial Nighthawk shots

[winter yew]

and also hes a hell of a lot more respectable a leader than the fucking emperor calus

least he has the motivation to carry his people forward, and to help them prosper

instead of solely being interested in power for himself

[austere lance]

D2 with the literally endless FOMO $15 season passes that make up the story now 💀

And the $40+ expansions tossed in every few months

[winter yew]

i just play it cause i enjoy the pvp, its the one thing i enjoy about the destiny games that i cant replicate anywhere else

the gunplay and class abilities make it a unique experience

and also its one of the few shooters left that im actually somewhat good at

every other shooter i try to play i just get steamrolled

except splitgate

splitgate was phenomenal, too bad its dead

[broken prairie]

I love d2 gameplay but after the season with the new gambit and the forge I was like nah, they wanting too much of my money

[weak tiger]

They can have all my money and all my worldly possessions

I fuckin love D2

[coarse swift]

Got a new gambit shader today

Bonemeal Loam

It doesnt show in collections tho, just in the customization screen

Colors cloth nicely

[dry dirge]

I was trying to do a vanguard playlist earlier today and one of my teammates went afk right before the boss

we couldn't beat it

Damn them, whoever their name was

I don't remember

[austere lance]

Oh yeah, that was the other thing. Division 2 is so much easier to play solo than Destiny, and there aren't a billion bs playlists for each activity. It's just an open map and you start missions and whatnot by walking/fast traveling to them

[broken prairie]

Division 2 is very fun

Would anyone here be interested in playing some Alien Swarm: Reactive Drop?

[grave elbow]

I remember that one! it was pretty fun

@fleet moat Likes that one, dunno if she finished (we have so many games!)

[winter yew]

Game name?

[idle saffron]

Everspace 2

[orchid fox]

eeeeeh dw about it

[primal loom]

Gas gianttt

Doing some trading runs now

Everspace 2 is excellent

Amazingly polished, super intuitive interface and controls

[idle saffron]

Does it use the same control scheme as the first?

[primal loom]

Yeah

for mouse and keyboard at least

not sure about controller

I think Everspace is the only flight game I actually prefer M&K for

Lunchtime

[idle saffron]

Lol

[primal loom]

I like this supply/demand bar

[snow zenith]

The whole UI

is so damn crispy

[dry copper]

NMS Interceptor?

[primal loom]

Hmm?

[dry copper]

I tease. Been eating this update like a drunk eats shots. Now everything is NMS until it's not.

[primal loom]

Oh lol

Yeah it's great, I love the new ships

[dry copper]

Hate the lack of teleporter console thingamajig

Might end up not using them for that alone

[primal loom]

Ah yeah

There's a setting for that in the difficulty settings at least

[dry copper]

For that specifically?

[primal loom]

Yep

For inventory access range with starships

I have it set to infinite personally because the teleport receiver only increases the range by 100u which is basically nothing, while the freighter one gives infinite range

[dry copper]

Yeah I was saving up for the freighter one to use exclusively

[idle saffron]

Of all peoples

Sad times

[primal loom]

Sorryyyyy

[dry copper]

Wasn't ES2 on sale?

[primal loom]

Here's an other game for you Gleam

[idle saffron]

Neat ships in that one

[primal loom]

10% off I think

[dry copper]

I probably already own it and don't even know

[primal loom]

Lol

I got it like two years ago and have been waiting for the full release

[dry copper]

I didn't know it wasn't.

[primal loom]

It just launched a few days ago

v1.0

I can vouch for the game's exceptional polish and quality

[dry copper]

I'm hoping Exoplanet is great when it's finished.

I got that one long ago and am waiting for its launch

It kind of reminded me of Elex

[primal loom]

Hadn't heard of Exoplanet before

Space cowboys, neat!

[dry copper]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBrwkqlg1jA

Champion for the human spirit

[primal loom]

Yess

The new bomber is looking sharp

[crisp sparrow]

damn you already got a new ship

did you trade in

[primal loom]

Yep

Did some trade runs between Ceto and Union too

[crisp sparrow]

I dont wanna trade in my dorky sentinel...

guess I'll do some jobs

[primal loom]

You can unlock ship parts for customization from high-risk POIs, later on you could get a higher tier Sentinel and make it look like the one you've got now if you wanted to

Trading is really lucrative

42k profit

[plucky mesa]

They finally fixed the water in NMS!

Ok I'm done

[primal loom]

Thanks for sharing 😊

[worn jacinth]

How does Elite Dangerous compare to No Man's Sky?

[idle saffron]

Two totally different games

Elite is sim

Goes for realistic everything

For me, I always have room for space games and would recommend Elite to anyone else that does also

It can def be grindy, but it does the void of space amazing

[worn jacinth]

well my main game is RuneScape so can't be worse grinding than there 😂

[idle saffron]

And the control you have over your ships is second to none, terrific controls

[worn jacinth]

but yeah I love space games

[idle saffron]

I'd check it out then

Believe it's on sale on Steam too

[worn jacinth]

yeah I saw theres a sale on it and it's not in Game Pass

Elite Dangerous is not the one that doesn't leave early access with the ship DLCs eh

[idle saffron]

Nah, it has some bugs most assuredly, but they keep working on it

The ships are amazing, and now that you can walk around you can really see their massive sizes

[worn jacinth]

well doesn't every game have bugs 🙂

cool so it also has updates like NMS?

[fleet moat]

I have not So many games. So little attention span

[primal loom]

They've done some paid DLC, Horizons and Odyssey

Horizons has been rolled into the base game now, you don't have to pay for it anymore

[primal loom]

Lmao the grind definitely won't be a problem then 🤭

Elite has an amazing flight model, you really feel like you're flying a spaceship

[idle saffron]

It's the best flight model

Ever

[worn jacinth]

so I just buy Elite: Dangerous and Odyssey separately?

[primal loom]

First I should ask what platform you are on

[worn jacinth]

the Commander Premium Edition only has the soundtracks extra I think

Steam

[primal loom]

Ah ok, so yeah the bundle has the tracks but that's the only difference

[worn jacinth]

yeah the bundle costs an euro more for the tracks :p

[primal loom]

I asked about platform because console development for ED:Odyssey and all future updates has been cancelled

[worn jacinth]

ah damn

yeah I do have a PS5 since December

but was going for Steam here

[primal loom]

Odyssey added on-foot stuff, only on light atmospheric worlds though so think like, Mars or Pluto, rather than Earth

[worn jacinth]

cool

[primal loom]

oof the preview compression on that one

[worn jacinth]

Ok bought it, now no spoilers please hehe

[winter yew]

If you're gunna be hopping on to ED, I'd definitely get Odyssey bundle.

[primal loom]

Enjoy :)

[worn jacinth]

First gonna finish Hogwarts Legacy, ty

then probs that inbetween Horizon Forbidden West Burning Shores & Jedi Survivor

or after, we'll see 🙂

[primal loom]

Just an FYI there's not a story really

It's much more a sandbox game

There is lore that is updated every so often with in-game news articles and occasional events but not a campaign or anything

[worn jacinth]

Yeah I meant the photos I wanna see it for myself 🙂

[primal loom]

Ahh understood

[winter yew]

Thing about ED is I leave it alone for a while and put it on for 30 minutes and then end up on a week long binge just exploring and wandering about taking screenshots.

[restive current]

Damn, nice! Simulator, or can be played on a KB?

[primal loom]

The emulator can map the controls to keyboard

Though, there is an actual PC version of the game I think

lemme check

Yep

Not sure where you could get it now though, it was sold as physical copies back in the day

I was getting all sorts of issues at first 😅

Took some tinkering to get it all ironed out

[restive current]

No, I get that...but I'm asking if this game is a simulator or an arcade game?

[restive current]

Nice bug!

[primal loom]

Oh

It's an arcade game

[restive current]

Ah, fair enough. Will try it out if I get the chance. 🙂

[winter yew]

elite dangerous doesnt really have a traditional story mode, just lore, you have to go out and discover things to learn about the story, and a lot of it also doesnt really make sense if you dont know the lore of past elite games

ah, risbeak already said it

id recommend going after the generation ships

if youre into exploring

theres probably still some out there and the story evolves based on the players actions

entire regions of space have been created as a result of player intervention

im waiting for TDU solar crown to come out, its set in hong kong which seems like a super interesting and unique map to have for a racing game

[sturdy pendant]

No One Survived has been a fun game, huh.

[coarse swift]

did anyone survive

[primal loom]

I'm looking forward to it myself

I think the smaller but more focused map will be a nice change of pace from the older ones

I've got a friend that grew up there who's really excited about it

Gonna cruise around together with them on their hometown streets 😊

[dry dirge]

I got myself an exotic from Xur

[raw shoal]

i love no mans sky but i dont think there is enough fighting in it. is there any other games like this

[winter yew]

This is a really good game with a. Dope as fuck soundtrack

https://youtu.be/d6t0g-r7HZk

[winter yew]

I think it will be anything but small, pretty sure it’s a more accurate recreation of Hong Kong island and is slated to be massive

[primal loom]

I mean small relatively lol (TDU 1 was insanely big at 1,540km² but not very detailed)

I'm sure it will be more than big enough

[orchid fox]

ah yes give the magical crescent blade user a magic dual wield stance for 30s in standard mode @primal loom

lol

fun fact increase attack speed etc

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQt1vHSSSPs reason i picked musa @primal loom (warning very heavy effects)

[dry copper]

I'm hoping Everspace 2 comes on more than 10% sale soon lol

I should've gotten it way back when....but I have so many other games I haven't even touched

and here I am playing one I've had on my roster with 800+ hours on it already

Oh well. Fun is as fun does.

I'm glad the game is good

[winter yew]

That’s why I don’t buy games often too, play the ones I’ve got enough already and often play the ones I buy once or twice then never touch again

My 3 most played games I’ve got 12340 hours, 7000 hours and 3840 hours

Wha... Umbra?

[snow zenith]

Yes

There's normal, Prime and Umbra

[dry dirge]

oh dear

Just for excalibur, or does every frame have an umbra?

[coarse swift]

only excal

There might be other Umbra's planned in the future but I'm not sure

[snow zenith]

That was the idea anyway, not sure they'll go through with it

[snow zenith]

No clue why that has no sound bte

btw

[dry dirge]

Markus the absolute rebel

[idle saffron]

Reported

[broken prairie]

There 99.99 percent wont be,|| for lore reasons||

[primal loom]

Devs confirmed Excal would be the only Umbra

[coarse swift]

fine by me

Umbra powercrept Prime anyhow

[dry dirge]

Yeaaah, a Umbra and a prime for every frame would be really annoying

[primal loom]

For sure, it would be too much

[primal loom]

In both fashion and function lol

If anyone has played SpaceBourne 2, I have a very important question

Can you fly really big, dreadnaught style ships?

This will decide if I purchase the game or not

[primal loom]

I haven't played but seems like not (yet at least)

[dry dirge]

😔

[primal loom]

I found this post from the dev that says it's something they want to do

More Everspace 2 pics

Cute construction bot

[dry dirge]

The game had them added in 2 days ago

Spacebourne that is

[primal loom]

Oh really?

That was fast

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfMiJHFNKSM

Neat, 1 capital ship added to test and gain feedback

[winter yew]

I won't support Spacebourne 2 tbh.
I bought in to Spacebourne 1 and he promised so much stuff that he didn't implement and clearly abandoned it to move straight on to #2.

[primal loom]

Aw

[winter yew]

Spacebourne 1 is not finished and I have no reason to believe he won't do the same with Spacebourne 2.

[primal loom]

Thanks for the heads up

I haven't played either of them, I'll keep a loose eye on it but plenty of other stuff for me to do in the meantime

[dry dirge]

I might just wait till it's out of EA tbh

That's what I'm doing with Slime Rancher 2

[primal loom]

Good idea

I don't usually get EA games these days myself

Everspace 2 was a rare exception

Rockfish delivered with that one

Full release and super polished

[winter yew]

Gunna purchase Everspace 2 immediately as soon as it gets console release.

June it's looking like, not too long of a wait.

Question about pre-orders for games. Do dev studios not have access to that funding for development?

[idle saffron]

That would depend on their business agreement with whatever publisher/platform at a guess

But I don't see how they could not have access to at least a portion of it - but that's logic not capitalism

[weak tiger]

I wonder if Fallen Order is still on game pass, may try and beat it for reals

before the sequel

[coarse swift]

Worth the play tbh

I finished Fallen Order earlier this week

Wish it was longer

Not to say that it was short, its just that I didn't want to stop

[weak tiger]

I played right up to… Dathomir I think? Been a while. I wasn’t very good at the combat but it was a gorgeous game

[winter yew]

Yep. My thoughts too.
I'm not at all a Star Wars fan but Fallen Order is one of my all time favourite games.

[idle saffron]

It's great

[dry dirge]

I got angry at some of the puzzles and stopped playing

[weak tiger]

I’m a huge star wars fan, lots of good times watching the movies and shows with family so it just makes me happy. What I played of Fallen Order was hella fun

[dry dirge]

what I did up to that point was fun, but I just had no interest to go any further

[weak tiger]

That one damn temple BALL PUZZLE took so long 😭 I’m usually not good at puzzles so I felt way too proud of beating that one

[dry dirge]

That's the one I got stuck on :(

[coarse swift]

Yea not much of a Star Wars fan either

Despite that I recognized a lot of stuff

I understand the puzzles are gonna be harder

[weak tiger]

curses

…does DMC 5 have puzzles?

[snow zenith]

A........ puzzling conundrum

[weak tiger]

shoo! off with ye!

[dry dirge]

Not that I know of

there is platforming though, and it's awful

[weak tiger]

uh oh

parkour :(.

You play it? havent bought it yet but was thinking of it

[dry dirge]

Yes I played like half of it or so

[dry dirge]

Sunshot in Destiny 2 is such a fun weapon 😩

[weak tiger]

I didnt mean it

[weak tiger]

It’s very pretty

[dry dirge]

Even though the barrel looks like an alien egg

[weak tiger]

lol

[dry copper]

I want a new bladerunner 😦

2049 just made me want more

It's only logical the direction its going

[weak tiger]

Never saw it

[austere lance]

But you do have a new one

[dry copper]

First one: Dude falls for synthetic human. ||Synthetic human has baby.Baby is girl||. First born synthetic being. All of the synthetics wish they were that child...The future of Bladerunner I think will revolve around the child of that synthetic - The second true born synthetic human a boy and its facing rejection in humanity despite it for all the lore says must mean, having a soul...and then it might fall for a real human and the human gives birth to a human from a synthetic...A perfect union, from human to tech and back again.

[dry dirge]

spoilers 🙄

[dry copper]

The completion of a cycle that evolves the entire species

It doesn't even exist

Romeo and Juliet die by suicide at the end of the Shakespearian play.

Spoiler!

[coarse swift]

K but the Bladerunner thing is a spoiler that not everyone knows about

Dont need to be an ass with a snarky remark

[dry copper]

What thing?

[coarse swift]

Read upwards

You literally just typed it 5 minutes ago

[dry copper]

I didn't write more than what is premised in most of the trailers. Most of what I wrote beyond a single three word sentence is entirely unwritten.

[weak tiger]

[dry copper]

IE-I just made up

[coarse swift]

I appreciate the spoiler tag

[dry copper]

Blackberry movie coming out...I can't believe they hired Jay Baruchel....

I wonder if it will be a chance for him to break into more serious roles

Though the makeup he wears for the show makes me wonder

[weak tiger]

I want to play a zombie game

[tame cairn]

You can change the facial hair and I imagine take it off

[weak tiger]

interestin’

more customization the better

[tame cairn]

Since you haven’t seen it, just wait

Unless you wanna see it

But it’s nice

[weak tiger]

Yeah! I prefer to wait for sales anyway, I’m sure some spoilers will float around. Not too fussed about it

[austere lance]

State of Decay 2 👀

[grave elbow]

Project zomboid is a great zombie game too

[dry copper]

State of Decay 2 is great with friends

You can door your friends

[weak tiger]

I think I only ever played dead island would love some zombie game friendos. i’m too cowardly to play one by myself lol

[dry copper]

In state of decay 2 you basically have to play any number of characters and manage a big group

You pick who goes where

[austere lance]

Yeah State of Decay 2 isn't a scary zombie game, it's more like a small version of The Walking Dead show where the goal is to go between different maps, start communities of survivors on them, and clear them of the gross plague zombies so they're safer

[tame cairn]

rn

[winter yew]

been playing 7 days to die lately, its not scratching the itch though i think i need to bite the bullet and go play some like arma 3 dayz or something, when it comes to zombie games i prefer the extreme realism

[dry copper]

True. The scariest enemies in SoD2 are humans

[weak tiger]

Ooh, interesting. Is Left 4 Dead good? I also remember the telltale(?) walking dead games are on game pass

[tame cairn]

yes

left 4 dead is good as well as 2

[weak tiger]

nice nice, maybe I’ll bully some people into playing with me

[tame cairn]

And the telltale games are good if you like telltale games

I’ve almost finished them

[winter yew]

only thing holding me back is the people who are left on that game are cracked, the people who are left on that game are the people who have been playing the military sim style shooters for like 6k hours

[weak tiger]

I played a good chunk of the first one but choices scare me

[tame cairn]

DayZ is alright, playing it rn

[weak tiger]

ohh dayz was the other one

[tame cairn]

gets boring kinda quick tbh

[dry copper]

Isn't Dayz standalone online only?

[tame cairn]

Like no Crossplay?

[winter yew]

hows the playerbase though? what happens to you generally when you encounter other players?

[weak tiger]

Wait, I didnt play dayz, I watched someone play it. Nvm

[dry copper]

Like you can't play without the option of other players jumping in to shoot you in the face

[austere lance]

You die quickly, lol

[tame cairn]

DayZ has servers like battlefield so you can see how many players are in a server

[winter yew]

thats kinda what draws me to it, but i mean at the same time i wonder how youre supposed to compete with the dudes that have never stopped since release

that and the size of the map and the realism

[dry copper]

I'd be more worried about the dudes cheating

[weak tiger]

I don’t like pvp at all in most games

[tame cairn]

Haven’t encountered it yet knock on wood

[weak tiger]

I’m a pacifisht

[winter yew]

i find dayz and its mods to be really immersive when youre not getting clapped in half a second by an enemy you never saw

[dry copper]

I've seen aimbots being used in Dayz

[tame cairn]

Been playing for a while now

[winter yew]

you can never really tell when people are cheating these days either though

theres ai based cheating

[austere lance]

@weak tiger I think you'd like State of Decay 2, it's fun starting a little community of survivors and growing it. As you grow it you can go clear larger potential bases of zombies then move your community there and expand

[winter yew]

and its basically undetectable

you just use a neural network, make it learn how to play the game and how to aim and shoot at players, and eventually theyre gonna get better and faster than any player could ever hope to be

[weak tiger]

Duly noted thanks!

[winter yew]

but it still looks normal and possible, its not obvious and un natural like an aimbot

[tame cairn]

Well, DayZ is PvP and PvE mixed, so it might not be for you

[winter yew]

it is an evolving problem and theres really no way to stop it

[austere lance]

Plus it's not scary, and you can craft/find goofy homemade weapons like a giant barbecue fork to stab things with 🤣
Or a great hammer with spikes on it

[dry copper]

Speaking of goofy homemade weapons....DeadRising

[weak tiger]

Yea, probably steering away from that. Sucks because I would love to play sea of thieves for example but haven’t touched it in a while because people who do not stop playing it kept sinking me. just wanna do spooky skellyman quest >:((

[weak tiger]

I love using wack ass weapons

Fallout 4 bladed tire iron my beloved

[dry copper]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujH4sbLAPlk

[weak tiger]

that thumbnail looks promising lmao

[winter yew]

i wont hate on them though, they worked hard to get that good and its their passion and everything, you either adapt or stop playing, all there is to it really, no good reason really to hate on someone whos good at something

[dry dirge]

If somebody is better then me they are cheating 😠

[weak tiger]

I don’t have any problem with people playing their games and being good lol, I have a problem with the concept of pvp in general - just not my thing.

no hate

[winter yew]

i might give it a whirl sometime, other zombies games are a little too fast paced and arcadey for me and dont scratch that immersion itch

[austere lance]

Some of the heavy weapons in the game, lol

[dry copper]

Scum looks good

[weak tiger]

I tried getting into reading zombie books but that’s… not a lot of good ones

[winter yew]

i am a big fan of punishingly difficult games anyway

[dry copper]

In scum you can kill people and then eat them

[winter yew]

the only good zombie book i can think of is world war Z

the movie was garbage

but the book had a good premise

[dry dirge]

I've never enjoyed Zombie stuff, always just been boring to me

[winter yew]

instead of the worlds governments being completely incompetent in that book

[austere lance]

Yep, World War Z is easily the best zombie book. It's a good book in general tbh

[winter yew]

they banded together to fight a war against the zombies

[weak tiger]

I read Tooth and Nail by craig dilouie a while ago. Iirc it was a much more immersive gritty one but I don’t remember if it was that good

[winter yew]

came up with a set of tactics that are realistic and actually work against your stereotypical zombie

and slowly wiped the infestation out

like what would happen in real life, society wouldnt just suddenly break down and the military become incompetent and useless

[weak tiger]

I’m a sucker for undead hordes in any genre. Necromantic cults in fantasy for instance

[dry dirge]

I like skellingtons, not zombies

[austere lance]

World War Z game, lol. The entire game is basically "Let's see how many zombies we can put on-screen at once, and let's see if you can survive" 🤣

[winter yew]

thats a shame

in a world war z game you should be part of a military squad, and conduct operations to wipe out zombie infestations based on the tactics used in the book

[dry dirge]

I love games that let you bash skeletons and all their bones rattle around

[weak tiger]

mmm skyrim

I respect that

[austere lance]

https://youtu.be/w6vnQvhCDLE

[winter yew]

forming a perimeter, protecting the center, if you start to get overrun you create an opening and retreat through it

[weak tiger]

Walmart lines be like

Sorry I’m legally obligated to make that joke

[dry dirge]

Perimeters? Tactics?

Sounds like boring nerd stuff

I want shoot man bang bang

[winter yew]

perhaps, but the boring nerd stuff might just save your life

[austere lance]

That joke's funnier after watching the trailer 🤣

More like "Black Friday be like"

[weak tiger]

holy shit

that is a lot of zombies 😂 and totally accurate

[austere lance]

Yeah the game is absolutely nuts, and fun af to co-op

It got a massive 2.0 rework like a year ago that changed melee combat, added a new class, and added first-person mode

[dry dirge]

When I'm looking to shoot and bash tons of hordes, Darktide is great

[dry copper]

I am disgusted by this UFC WWE merger

[austere lance]

Haven't played Darktide, Vermintide was fun tho

[dry dirge]

Vermintide is also good

but the guns can be janky

[winter yew]

im just waiting for the stock to be listed once they do merge

im hoping it opens at a decent price, and then grows rapidly

perhaps i can make some easy money

wwe stock price is up at like 100 right now, so im hoping when TKO lists that it is not that, ideally

[dry copper]

UFC was quickly turning into hot garbage with the direction it was going and owner dipping his junk into Power Slapping, then they merge with an already fake fighting entertainment powerhouse WWE and completely delegitimize the entire Octagon

[dry dirge]

none of those terms make any sense

Octagon? UFC? Power Slapping?

[weak tiger]

[dry copper]

UFC is mixed martial arts in an octagonal shaped ring between martial artists all over the world.

[winter yew]

ive never been a big fighting fan but, i see two huge companies like that merge, and theres dollar signs in my eye

[dry copper]

Power Slapping is when two dudes slap each other until one gives up or explodes. Brain damage included.

[winter yew]

of course, theres potential that the partnership flops, and they dont make money at all

thing is, i dont see how 2 organizations like that dont make money

i mean its ufc and wwe, theyre gonna make money

and with 21.5 billion dollars in new capital being introduced right away, its a pretty safe investment i think

[dry copper]

jake gyllenhaal is already doing a UFC movie where he fake punches people because it's acting

[winter yew]

oh and, not financial advice

gotta cover my ass of course

[weak tiger]

dear lord

[winter yew]

and also of course slap fighting is getting extremely popular

thanks to critikal

[weak tiger]

Ohh right

[winter yew]

so i dont see how they dont make money on that either

i just need TKO to list at a decent price

so i can buy up like 200 shares at once

[dry copper]

Power Slapping endorsed by the tool at UFC is not the same as the slap fighting charlie was endorsing. Even Charlie commented about this garbage version.

Either kind of slapping is garbage imo.

[winter yew]

may be garbage, but you know people eat that shit up regardless

[dry copper]

That's true.

[winter yew]

💰 💰

[dry copper]

Fetish do be fetishing

[winter yew]

the more stupid it is, the more popular it will be

a good rule for any trader to follow

[dry copper]

Doesn't even have to be stupid. Just has to be...base

[winter yew]

and also just watch what ceo's do

[dry copper]

Appeal to base humanity

[winter yew]

im of the opinion its whatever, people can like what they want even if its dumb, i just wanna get in on some of those profits for myself

[dry copper]

Assuredly, as long as it's not hurting others and they aren't lying about it.

Dude wants to submit to being hurt, more power to him. Freedom of choice.

I don't think though if dude submits to being hurt, it's okay for the organization profiting off that choice to be able to deny any liability for the long term consequences of the industry they built up on the bones of those who died to try and make it so.

[snow zenith]

Index with credit booster, double credit event and credit blessing is nutty

There should be some mandatory support for their contestants.

[primal loom]

Everspace 2 😊

[weak tiger]

That’s so pretty! Cute ship too

[primal loom]

Thank you

I like the ship customization

Can choose colors for paint, engines, and cockpit glass
adjust the paint material (matte, glossy, or metallic)
and swap out wings, front, and tail with a couple variants

The nebula areas are so cool

some of them have lightning 👀

It has hand-painted cutscenes too

Must photo-bomb every picture with my ship

[weak tiger]

oh my goodnesss

so pretty

[primal loom]

Yesss

The visuals are simply stunning

Runs super smooth and my hardware is 6-7 years out of date

Nvidia GTX 1070 and i7-6700k

If anyone wants a polished shooty looty experience in space with a healthy side of explorin', this is it

It's open-world with lots of unique POIs

The first Everspace is a rogue-like

I liked it a lot but definitely prefer the more free and relaxed pace of 2

It autosaves every time you dock with a station or load into an area so you don't have to stress about losing progress

i got the hawkmoon from xur on destiny 2, the results have been good

[pale trellis]

https://youtu.be/bmj3ty-Wt48

[austere lance]

[pale trellis]

Yes, looks like a movie

I just hope that the game will be longer

[austere lance]

It's definitely gonna be longer than the first game, the worlds are big enough that there's fast travel and mounts to tame and ride on them

[pale trellis]

It sometimes takes me a year to finish a game, like botw. I didnt play games that mutch back then and i dont play too often even now, bbut it would be great if this game was one of them.

Im worried it wont be that big of a game because of the skill tree, but maybye its larger than it looks

[austere lance]

There's skill trees for every lightsaber stance, lol

[coarse swift]

i saw a white lightsaber in the customization

lookin forward to that

there'll obviously be no darksaber

[pale trellis]

Modders are going to add that

[dull tulip]

I hope they create a mod that adds those toy light sabers from the 90s

[austere lance]

Time to unleash my inner Ahsoka 😌

Tho I'm going full Ventress if I can use red crystals 😌

[dull tulip]

Random anime news
Ceryn n I finished Trigun Stampede today. Very good. A lil bit rushed tho, wish we could've spent more time with the characters. It also gets major points for having the original author involved.

The opening theme was .

[dull tulip]

I'm gonna have a difficult time deciding between red or white 😩

[austere lance]

I've waited a very long time to have dual sabers in another Star Wars game, I'm gonna go nuts with em 😫💦💦

[dull tulip]

The last games I played were Force Unleashed 1 n 2
I know fans are kind of split with that one, but I enjoyed it 😌

And there's been references to it in some of the new Disney Star wars content >.>

I would love to see Rahm Kota n Galen again, so I hope they get implemented into the new story.

[austere lance]

Did you play Jedi Fallen Order?

[idle saffron]

I enjoyed Force Unleashed 1 and 2, but Fallen Order even more

And this sequel looks nuts

[grand mica]

The only Star Wars games I’ve ever played were Jedi Knight and A Phantom Menace.

[austere lance]

I played JFO way too much, I neeeeeeeed Survivor 😫

[grand mica]

back in 97-99

[austere lance]

I've played like, 90% of the Star Wars games released since the Obi Wan Xbox game back in 2001 😆

[winter yew]

Spooder

Jumpy

added some arms later on too

it also has a little brother

the size difference is pretty big

One of my recent creations

Took me like 800 hours of playing to learn how to make a proper walker

besiege looks like a simple game

but in reality

there is some pretty complicated stuff

[dull tulip]

I'm going to, I watched a good chunk of Ceryn's playthrough, but I'll do a run before playing the sequel

Genshin Impact music is so addicting 😩
https://youtu.be/4oBpaBEMBIM

[sleek cloud]

Got Red Dead Redemption 2 on PC, currently downloading and can't wait to see how good it looks on PC

get ready for some screenshots 😛

[idle saffron]

Woot

I loved that game

One of the rare long story games I played through multiple times

[sleek cloud]

120gb 😮

[idle saffron]

Yeah

It's gorgeous

[sleek cloud]

played a bit of it on PS4 pro and even on there it looked pretty awesome

but it does struggle in places, especially in the more built up areas

on PC maxed out i should be able to achieve over 60fps quite comfortably

[idle saffron]

I would think so yep

[sonic sonnet]

Everspace 2 is soo expensive

My whole months good expenses

😭

[sonic sonnet]

Will it run on hardware twice as old. 🤔

[sonic sonnet]

It be like....all...this space...is mine

[sleek cloud]

yep

[broken prairie]

I really hope my laptop will run everspace 2 well

its so nice on my pc

[tame cairn]

pretty they made it not canon, but maybe

[snow zenith]

Rahm Kota's canon.

[tame cairn]

So only certain characters are canon within the game?

Odd, unless he was before the game

[snow zenith]

They just take certain things and bring them back into Canon.

[tame cairn]

Weird, but understandable ig

[snow zenith]

In this case, Rahm was re-canonized in the Obi-Wan show, his name is on one of the walls in the safehouse.

[tame cairn]

OH YEAH

ok

nvm

[snow zenith]

Wouldn't be surprising if they made Galen canon again, but I doubt he'd have much of a role or story told.

[tame cairn]

I honestly doubt that they would make starkiller canon, but i could be totally wrong on that as well

[snow zenith]

Not Starkiller per say, just a character with the same name, maybe even similar backstory.

Just none of that secret apprentice shit.

[tame cairn]

I honestly like the secret apprentice shit, wish it stayed tbh.

[snow zenith]

No way you can make something that big fit into the story now.

[tame cairn]

I like how Anakin makes his padawans/apprentices use the saber backhand

Yeah, just always thought it was cool

[snow zenith]

Excited for the Ahsoka show.

Wonder if they'll canonise Joruus C'baoth too.

Since he and Thrawn have a history.

Outbound Flight is a great book.

[tame cairn]

I’m excited for it, but I still dislike how ahsoka looks in live action

and I knew she’d look weird the way her “hair” is

[snow zenith]

Well I mean

ofc CGI is always gonna look better with these characters

[tame cairn]

Well yeah, it’s just hard to watch sometimes

At least for me

[snow zenith]

I understand why they didn't do the longer montrals she has as she grows up but it's a shame lol

https://tenor.com/view/star-wars-ahsoka-lightsaber-fight-gif-16311204

[tame cairn]

Yeah true

[snow zenith]

Other than that, no biggy.

I like the casting.

[tame cairn]

I like the actor, it’s literally just the makeup

[snow zenith]

I'm honestly gonna have a harder time seeing Lars Mikkelsen painted blue lol

ok...

[idle saffron]

No, he will probably stand out

[snow zenith]

Oh my god

[snow zenith]

Pls

[idle saffron]

Yw

[snow zenith]

He voiced Thrawn in Rebels so

Makes sense they'd want him doing the live action too

[tame cairn]

if he looks like that on the right, not bad

I didn’t expect to see the Rebels crew tbh

After I saw Zeb I should’ve known..

[snow zenith]

I mean

It can't be worse than the Rebels portrayal

I really don't like how they did the character there lol

[tame cairn]

Thrawn?

[snow zenith]

Sir is your head okay

[tame cairn]

lol

Rebels’ Vader mask always bothered me a bit too

[snow zenith]

They inspired a lot of stuff from Ralph McQuarrie's original designs.

[tame cairn]

elongated vader

[snow zenith]

Which is neat, but it doesn't really work well in animation.

[tame cairn]

True, that is neat

[snow zenith]

i.e.

[tame cairn]

If The Punisher was a Sith

Sir. Eyebrows pls

gugh. Decided to try and use an AI to sing lyrics. It did not go well.

To call it singing is an insult to songs.

[cerulean kite]

vrooom

oh i didnt take a picture of my corvette boooooo

[placid moat]

A fellow unbound nsx enjoyer. Good

Such a fanastic game

[worn jacinth]

Sooo I bought Elite Dangerous and made a Frontier account

But I'm getting this when attempting to log in

how do I redeem the game in my account after buying it on Steam? 🤔

[snow zenith]

Make a Frontier account

And then link it

[worn jacinth]

It's already linked

hmm restarted the launcher, I think it works now

do I launch Odyssey or Horizons?

Does Odyssey have all Horizons content?

[tame cairn]

https://youtube.com/watch?v=SSXqU92cymY&feature=share

[worn jacinth]

ah quick Google reveals that Odyssey includes everything of Horizons which is the base game

alright

[cerulean kite]

i'm really enjoying it, in week 4 now. i loved the NSX in Heat as well. i bought a corvette that I think im gunna use as my S+, but with the NSX as a fallback.

the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray 2020 with the mid-engine

[placid moat]

I finished SP and went straight to MP to build out my garage, NSX included for A+ tier.

The meta favours acceleration heavy cars, with a few top speed tracks.

The NSX I tuned is a right beast off the starting line + turns like a dream, tops out 285 KPH though. I've been with NFS since the NFS2 days, did skip Payback all the way to Heat. WEnt for Unbound because it actually resonated with me.

• Grip turning!

[cerulean kite]

yeah Heat was my first one in a long time

[placid moat]

My usual suspects are the F40, the S2000, NSX, Vulcan, 180sx and the S15 for drifting around coppers in MP

[cerulean kite]

this is my A+

[placid moat]

All in all, love the game and I love racing in it. The BUrst NOS system is something I didn't know I wanted until it was implemented. Bloody fun

The good ol (and best looking) EVO 9.

[cerulean kite]

it is a lot of fun

[placid moat]

It is often used for MP too, since some cars are imported into your MP garage

Any car you win or something like that is given free of charge for your starting online career

[cerulean kite]

A class

the ol' eclipse

[placid moat]

The first car I bought. GSX!

SOlid solid ride

Even with 40% grip drifts like a dream

[cerulean kite]

it does very well in its class, same with the EVO, A+ tier races are actually the easiest for me

i dont know if ill play too much online, i have a lot of other games i need to play, maybe once i clear up my backlog

[placid moat]

It's good fun tbh.

Racing for me always has been about PvP. Not sweating, but it spices up every race. Challenging to easier races, you never know until the guy in front of you pulls away

Also damn I cannot upload links in here?

[worn jacinth]

lol Elite Dangerous is showing Console controls in the UI

Balls.

[cerulean kite]

nah that worked

nice clean look, it's great

[placid moat]

That's my favourite ride right there.

Thanks, ditto for yours by the by!

[cerulean kite]

im pretty excited to see how I like this Corvette over time

[placid moat]

Ping me once you got it together!

Love seeing people's rides.

[cerulean kite]

never really went with a Corvette before, but the new ones look pretty sick

i definitely will.

[placid moat]

Don't drive them myself but you can hear people pull up

One thing oyu will love about Online freeroam

[worn jacinth]

Meh Odyssey is refusing to use my Mouse and keyboard

[cerulean kite]

oh u wanna see my B Class 😂

[worn jacinth]

coz I have an Xbox controller plugged in

[placid moat]

Certain engines you can just hear roaring and screaming in the background as players pass you by.

[placid moat]

Also have to eat but sure, I'll ---

A fucking legend

Foxbody does well in B class

[cerulean kite]

yeah it does

i like having at least one mustang in my garage

[cerulean kite]

unplug the controller then?

[placid moat]

Would kill for the 69 boss mustang

[worn jacinth]

meh it's in the back of my pc

[cerulean kite]

my dad had a '69 and a... i wanna say '71 Mach?

[worn jacinth]

yeah meh, not playing today then

[balmy plaza]

Absolute banger of a cover

[primal loom]

You'll have to have a look in the bindings section, it can work with both at the same time

It may have defaulted you to a controller-only preset

Btw on-foot and ship controls are bound independently from each other

[worn jacinth]

I switched to a keyboard & mouse preset but it still didn't work

[primal loom]

Hmm

Not sure what's going on there then, sorry

[worn jacinth]

I requested a refund tbh

[primal loom]

Fair

[winter yew]

this your real life car?

[winter yew]

i dont know if anyone answered you already but odyssey contains all of the games content from vanilla to horizons to odyssey, thats the one

my favorite thing about elite dangerous is its optimizations, runs at exactly 144 fps at all times

Just got called a little shit on Titanfall feeling good 💪

[snow zenith]

I say hello to the big friendly worm

[cerulean kite]

no, its a video game screenshot

my real life car is a black with tan leather interior 2013 Volkswagen Passat SE

[snow zenith]

bye worm, hi new worm

[snow zenith]

Pet the doggie

[weak tiger]

I WANT TO PET MY DOGGOS

[dry dirge]

why can't you? 😔

[weak tiger]

no time to game

My doggos need me

[dry copper]

I couldn't find any shanties for NMS, but this one song follows me through the intracosm

May be useful info but sense Xbox is planning to make gold free in future any cards left in circulation will convert into gamepass when you buy it, just got 3, 12 month gold cards and gamepass it converted and next renewal is 2026

aka: why Java is not a good language for video games. It scales HORRIBLY.
Thankfully NMS doesn't use Java (I'm guessing most of the code is C++)

[dry copper]

Nah. NMS is written in Qbasic

[winter yew]

ah ok, looked real

[winter yew]

still like java edition minecraft better than bedrock though, theres a few features i really, really enjoy in java edition minecraft that are missing in bedrock

namely, the combat update stuff, most people despise the combat update but i much prefer the newer combat mechanics to the old combat mechanics

[tropic pollen]

Star citizen anyone? 🤔

[coarse swift]

Absolutely, if it was a good investment

[dry copper]

Qbert only. Qbert forever.

It's going to be hilarious. Star Citizen will be finished and launch with no story...Just a big vacuum of space expecting players to make it have a point.

and they'll wonder why it flopped

For the same reason Dual Universe is falling apart.

[tropic pollen]

With how many people I’ve seen still playing star citizen, I highly doubt it’s gonna be a flop 😂

[dry copper]

Technically it's not possible for it to be a flop in terms of sales. It made most of its money years in advance. They don't even have to sell well. They've already sold.

[coarse swift]

I have my reservations with how many years its been and how much funding its gotten

[dry copper]

I mean flop in terms of sales post launch

Once everyone is aware that the emperor has no clothes, they'll be less forgiving of him wagging his hips in their faces

[coarse swift]

That being said, I'd love to try it, just... for free.

[dry copper]

I expect the week that it launches, there will be some sort of crazy discount or huge update to Starfield to completely blast into the side of its sales hype

[tropic pollen]

Starfield doesn’t have multiplayer, and that’s a problem for me.

I can’t imagine myself playing a game like starfield, completing everything and then no one else being there.

[dry copper]

Riiight...

[tropic pollen]

I’ve been spoiled with nms and star citizen lol

[dry copper]

Like nobody plays fallout 😛

or skyrim

Ultimately it's your call.

Just be careful with excitement.

Lord....Cyberpunk 2077 ruined my hope in games

8 fricken years

[tropic pollen]

10

[dry copper]

10? ugh...even worse

[tropic pollen]

Ten years of development for a buggy mess lol

[weak tiger]

I’m so worried for DA4

[tropic pollen]

Dragon age?

[dry copper]

ahahaha, I was watching a music vid for a poets of the fall song at the alexander theater...using googles algorithm, I said...Okay find me something in the same genre and taste but more recent....and google was like...OKAY HAVE SOME "THE BEST OF NICKELBACK 2023!"

I nearly shit my face.

[tropic pollen]

Lol

[weak tiger]

yeah. I really am excited for Dreadwolf but it’s been through quite a lot in development already 😬

[tropic pollen]

Usually not a good sign.

[coarse swift]

I'm the other way tbh

Wouldn't matter if I'm alone at the end, what I want is the experience

[dry copper]

I want to feel

[coarse swift]

That and my wife is gonna play it too so am I really alone

[weak tiger]

I’ve spent thousands of hours solo, thousands in multiplayer. I’m down for either, the overall experience is what matters

[dry copper]

Look at all the MP games that use their MPerishness as the gimmick to sell their lack of content. It's shameful.

[tropic pollen]

Sadly they can’t all do it right like elden ring 😈

[dry copper]

Never played ER

[tropic pollen]

Shame on you

[dry copper]

I know

[coarse swift]

same tho

[weak tiger]

me neither

[coarse swift]

just dont have time for it

[dry copper]

I am not a fan of dark souls games

[coarse swift]

Eventually I'll play it

[weak tiger]

Same. Pretty shit at dark soulsy games if im honest

[tropic pollen]

Fair enough, a lot of people aren’t

“Too difficult” they say

[dry copper]

Not too difficult.

[weak tiger]

It’s really pretty but I don’t know if I’d get much fun out of it worth the price

[dry copper]

It's literally memorize a pattern and follow it for every single fight

[coarse swift]

Already a Souls / Souls-like vet anyhow

Cant wait to give it a go

[dry copper]

I just don't dig the mysticism.
