Thanks for sharing!

The Swedish GBA ad campaign is very unique!

I am biased, but an Underground 3 (with no MTX) with a well written storyline but with lots additional open world gameplay would be a return to form for NFS.

Not a discord server, but we have a (moderately active) cozygames community on the Threadiverse:

I will admit, your recommendation makes me want to play Rimworld with he new DLCs. :)

Sounds like there is a lot of cool new stuff.

Tumblr is still around?

I played the base game a lot (many hundreds of hours, also before it was released on Steam). I think I've only tried the royalty DLC.

On one hand I want to get back into Rimworld, on the other hand the mechanics from all the DLCs seem overwhelming.

It's got a top-down CRPG view (similar to the Fallout 1/2), but Avernum: Escape from the Pit might fit thematically.

You end up in an underground fantasy world where "undesirables" are sent to by a corrupt empire.

Another option would be Underrail. Another top down CRPG, this time based in a post-apocalytic world where everyone lives underground. The world building is top notch and the combat is very well developed with lots of choices (it's a also IMO a hard game). While the world building is strong, the writing (characters and their motivations) is rather weak.

I had to read more than once to realise it is not a game about WinRAR.

I had the same issue. I was actually genuinely interested about how a wargame was made about WinRAR.

I can understand a business tycoon game where you have to develop a compression/archive software company. Very, very nerdy, but there is a logic here.

A wargame about WinRAR? That's a whole different level.

I will add that as per the lore of the game, the Romans discovered steam power and started to colonize the new world. Rather unique I must say.

For sure, I am just curious. Not to lecture others, for my own knowledge. :)

I see where you are coming from, but as someone who speaks several other languages, I would say there can be benefits to lanagauge rules.

Didn't mean to imply you can't, I was just curious about the formal rules for the word.

And it seems "impacted" can be used in the sense of "affected".

I am confused :)

Just a quick web search; the first few results which linked to dictionary style resources.

Now I am confused. :)

At first I was thinking, why not use "impacted", it sounds a little bit awkward, but I've definitely seen it being used in relatively formal situations (or at least that's what I remember).

But no, I looked it up and "impacted" should not be used in the sense of affected. TIL.

The proc gen maps in Diablo 1 worked pretty well IMO.

Cool stuff!

First time I've heard of Vintage Story, sounds like a well made Minecraft clone.

It's almost comical how incompetent the Xbox BU's executive management has been for 10+ years.

I am a big user of sniper rifle + pistol combos. It works pretty well.

Will need to post a mini-review of Revision the next time I get to replay Deus Ex.

That's totally fair.

I've played Deus Ex enough times that I sort of enjoy the clunky and RPG progression gunplay.

I really need to play it. I am sure I would enjoy it. I thought Human Revolution and even Invisible War (with mods) were decent. Invisible War is fundamentally flawed due to the small maps though.
