I was playing Project Zomboid because my friends were playing. Turns out they were just waiting for a Star Citizen patch and abandoned PZ when the patch dropped.
I won’t play Star Citizen until they fix optimization issues. Right now it’s a buggy mess with 8 to 10fps.
As it turns out, having an account on a social media platform full of Nazis, violent racists, and child diddlers is not good for business.
It runs respectably well. I’m not picky, but nothing I’ve seen on the steam deck suggests it’s a gimmick ir anything. It runs just fine.
Surprisingly, my most played game last year was Powerwash Simulator. The game runs on a potato, yet I’m using an expensive steam deck to play it. Like, a lot.
My other games were:
Final Fantasy 14
Cyberpunk
7 Days to Die
Fallout 4
The fakest man alive turns out to be a fake gamer? I’m shocked! Shocked I say!
Is this game… fun? Everything I’ve seen and heard about it doesn’t seem fun at all.
They’re basically announcing “We’re a business, but we’re not all that interested in making money.”
It’s not an RPG, but I always recommend PowerWash Simulator. It’s one of those games where you don’t have to pay too much attention to the game and can watch stuff on your phone.
Aside from that, maybe World of Warcraft private server like ChromieCraft.
There’s also Starbound, Terraria, Fallout 3 & New Vegas, the Portal and Borderlands games, Half-Life 2 just received an update.
I have 3,400 hours in Space Engineers.
About 1,500 hours in FFXIV, 1,400 hours in DayZ, and 1,300 hours in 7 Days To Die.
Then 900 hours in Empyrion Galactic Survival, 500 hours in Baldurs Gate 3, and 300 hours in Fallout 4.
The rest are well below 200.
Sort of like every business and corporation that has a booth at Pridefest. Many of them are hostile to the LGBTQ+ community, yet they’re at Pridefest just for the PR.
Never forget, Steam allowed Alex Jones to publish his “anti-woke” video game there. And it was as disgusting as you can imagine.
I have a suspicion it’ll be a lot like EvE Online and their EvE Echoes mobile version. The mobile version is significantly watered down in size and functionality, yet is still playable. I think we’ll see something similar.
We’ll still see the core gameplay, but parts of the game might be removed or retooled. Crafting and gathering will likely be simplified, minions will be gone, jobs will have less abilities, graphics significantly reduced, and so on.
It’s doable, but don’t expect it to be the same game.
If the devs screw this up, the modding community will fix it.
I have a rechargeable mouse from a no-name Chinese company, and they put the port at the nose of the mouse. It works like a wired mouse when plugged in and charging.
How has Apple not figured this out?
I see triple A, and red flags go up. Didn’t Bethesda brag about being a triple A gaming company right before crapping out Starfield?
I would have loved to see Larian take on the White Wolf IP and make a Vampire: the Masquerade game.
I think that’s just Shadowrun.
Though it was used in a few games before, a Quake tournament and Half Life 1 cemented the use of WASD controls.
Playing FFXIV. I’m not really enjoying the Dawntrail story, but I’m only about a third of the way through it. I’m hoping it’ll pick up.
I also finished a playthrough of Baldur’s Gate 3 as a dark urge devotion paladin who didn’t break oath or give in to the urges.
On occasion, I’ll play a bit of Space Engineers if I need some mindless gameplay.
It can be hard and fustrating at times. It’s a zombie game that pulls no punches.
Shoot a gun? Every zombie within half a mile heard that and are now converging on your location.
Hiding in a building? Zombies will break down doors, break in through windows, climb over and under obsticals, etc.
Got a scratch? Theres a chance its the zombie infection. Sympoms set in and you become a zombie
Even on the easiest settings possible, it’s still a challenge to go at it alone.
