CCGs like MtG are very different from the current meaning of deckbuilders. I'm not sure which castle / turret defense games you're referring to.

Are there any other types of deckbuilder? I can't think of any

It's pronounced very differently though, just in case you didn't know.

I don't do live service or MMO games. I DO do games that have an ending of sorts, something to strive towards. E.g. launching a rocket in Factorio, self-sustaining in ONI, etc. With Timberborn to my understanding there's no such thing.

There was a time when it was perfectly okay to have a game you thoroughly enjoyed for say 10-, 20-, or 30 hours, and then 'ended the game'.

Any citybuilder I put down after 30 hours is probably one I consider a failure. The key thing with citybuilders is they're supposed to have replayability.

That seems to be a thing with a lot of citybuilders, they focus on the systems but not the endgame. It's why I ended up not getting Timberborn despite the good reviews. Well, that and the ultra slow updates.

I feel like many people wouldn't recognise him in a pic, compared to the other leaders.

Makes sense I guess? It's not like they can do anything about that cost.

If memory serves, she actually collaborated with the CDC to create a disease model that could realistically exist.

So every time I came up with a new iteration of Kellis-Amberlee, I would call back and say, “If I did this, this, this, this, this and this, could I raise the dead?” And every single time they would say, “No.” And I’d say, “OK,” hang up, and go back to working. After about the 17th time, I called and said, “If I did this, this, this, this, this, this and this, could I raise the dead?” And got, “Don’t . . . don’t do that.” At that point, I knew I had a viable virus.

Have you read Mira Grant's Newsflesh series? It's the ultimate realistic zombie story.

Your premise is that nuclear warfare is no longer possible, so by default, yes.

The US and / or Russia would obtain it ASAP, by hook or crook. Followed rapidly by World War 3

Review bombing requires

1. A scandal, and there's no indication Half Moon was involved in any such.
2. Coordination, which is easy enough to find on Google or elsewhere. Again, no indication of such.
3. Most of the time, at least some reviews in the bomb will state why they are downvoting the game. No indication of such.

Sometimes bad reviews are just bad reviews.

@mriormro@lemm.ee is there something you'd like to say besides just downvoting from the shadows?

You really should just ban the downvoters.

It was a joke to begin with, and I'm just trying to run with it. Don't overthink it :)

In which context? They're probably MFers too. If you mean artificial or biological... Could be either, but let's go with 3rd party replacements.

You seem to have missed the humorous intent of my comment

Adopted dads are technically artificial dads.

You're assuming most of the commentors here are familiar with the legal technicalities instead of just spouting whatever uninformed opinion they have.
