I really hate the pricing trend. But I’ve been waiting a long time for this game. Perhaps Humble Store will allow the Choice discount.

It’s never worked for me too well on PC. If I recall it doesn’t have native widescreen support or something. It made the UI difficult to navigate. I love the game and played it on Xbox originally, but typically gave up tweaking it on PC. Was looking forward to the remake; I’d pay for the convenience. But I get what you’re saying.

40K Rogue Trader is something I’ve had a bit of hope for for a while. Something about 40K videogames never hit right though imo.

This would still be a pretty decent improvement from the first game. The tech was pretty old, towns were mostly in different instances that prevented monsters from entering, though you’d occasionally have a quest that allowed attacks inside towns. Pretty much every friendly NPC that wasn’t a pawn was woefully under-equipped for dealing with creatures that weren’t goblins or wolves. Additionally, enemies were typically isolated in certain areas, at least until endgame. If creatures are roaming and creating out-of-the-ordinary events, I say more power to them, regardless of the comparison to other newer games.

I’m a bit biased as I’ve owned PZ since 2016, but it’s insanely fun with friends and insanely immersive solo. I’m unsure what you’re looking to get out of it, but I’ve put ~400hrs into it and it’s come a long way but has slow development. Very good modding scene to cover things in the meantime however.

Voice acting is always good, gameplay isn’t particularly complex but it’s fun and flashy/stealthy, writing ranges from decent to good… really enjoyed both older ones and newer ones, a shame there isn’t anything in the works.

BT2 and not on Unity like the first one

Just watched a video about FaZe Clan. Used to be a relatable gaming group mostly on Call of Duty during the early rise of online gaming content— some of the first to use capture cards to record gameplay and upload raw footage or cut compilations on YouTube. Far as I understand people liked them because they were relatable but as the money started flowing they became highly corporate and influencer-like, getting streamer houses and stuff like that, and so people started noting a disconnect and stopped caring. FaZe has been clawing to stay relevant for a years now so it’s kind of interesting to see where they’ll go from here.

I agree! The movie is one of my favorite “good bad” movies. I haven’t seen the other 2 movies however, or the animation.

Starship Troopers by Robert A. Heinlein. Though it is a very militaristic point of view that explores interesting societal topics as well as successes and failures of historical human governments. If you liked the training and world building of Ender’s Game, you might like this one.

Really enjoyed “Heave Ho!” Co-op 2D arcade-style game where you play a character with two arms, can control the direction and grabbing of each arm, and must cooperate to climb/heave each other through obstacle course levels. Couch co-op, best with controllers.
