Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?

Jump

  • Playing dredge on the deck.

    The theming is great, and the gameplay loop is satisfying. Creepy as though.

    Runs great on the deck via epic.

  • Starsector,

    Recommended from the sseth video, and it doesn't disappoint. Seems the options are limited only by your imagination. The economy is crazy.

    So many ships and customisation. It's very much in the vein of mount and blade, which is my most played game.

    • What counts as an attack for the purposes of the invisibility spell?

    Jump

  • Similarly inexperienced opinion here, but I'd also allow it. Agree with the others that pouring the oil would be potentially visible, but definitely after the fire is lit the smoke would make the players visible when they move. Kind of like how the smoke allows you to see the tripwire lasers.

    Rule of cool first and creative thinking is what makes ttrpgs great. However, you're the DM and the tone of the game is ultimately up to you.

    Sounds like your players are thinking outside the box, which in my experience is nothing but a recipe for fun (and likely headaches for your carefully laid plans). Good luck.

    • The kind of parents every 2000s gamer kid wished to have

    Jump

  • Simpsons hit and run?

    • DOOM® CAPTCHA

    Jump

  • I just tapped it and it showed one

    • What's the greatest videogame of all time?

    Jump

  • Mount and Blade Warband.

    So many games you start off or become something great. In Skyrim you're the dragonborn, you become great but you were always going to. The world is huge and immersive, but you're always going to be important in the world.

    In warband, you're a nobody. You'll always be a nobody unless you do something. Trade, fight, quest or scheme. The world will continue with or without you. Your favourite faction might get wiped out and you can do something about it or not. There's no guarantee of victory, and what you decide as a win condition is up to you.

    It is the ultimate sandbox, but the original is janky. The solution; mods. An incredibly dedicated modding community elevates this game into my most played game. The lord of the rings mod is both the best way to get into the game and in my opinion the best video game adaptation of a movie (just in front of kotor).

    TL:DR: Warband makes it ok to suck and makes you earn your victory. You might not think that's fun, but trust me it can be.

    • Am I ruining my liver?

    Jump

  • Definitely can see this. Seeing a good family practice doctor or GP would be my advice, this kind of thing is their bread and butter. Sounds like there's a few potential issues.
