    It's one I've always liked the look of but it's always been at a price that prevented me from impulse buying it. This game is in that category for me too.

    Yeah, im controlled type 2 w/ Oz. No serious eye neuropathy in November but glad I have it as a benchmark to compare to when I go back.

    I feel ya man. In the past month I've been diagnosed w/ arthritis in my neck, mild carpel tunnel in both wrists, obstructive sleep apnea and the glasses it was determined i needed for the first time in my life in November feel woefully inadequate, like my eyes have gotten used to them and...

    Dune Awakening

    How did you guys progress base-wise across the map? I married the first open patch I could see basically, and think it's time to establish at least a mining outpost west/ northwest as I need more and more steel / crystal. Or should I be thinking bigger? I recognize making my base way down...

    Dune Awakening

    If you've had one, you have the schematic already to make it. So hit tab, go to crafting at the top, and 20 salvaged metal to make another (per wiki - Construction Tool | Dune Awakening Wiki) Oh, not tab, I for inventory or whatever you've used to open your UI, then crafting, and it'll be...

    Damn, check them out on their site... really nice, responsive zoomable images that the above are only just pieces of. https://rubinobservatory.org/news/rubin-first-look/cosmic-treasure-chest Just like looking up from a genuinely dark location in the middle of the night, it's really hard to...

    Dune Awakening

    Think this is what likely happened, i deleted a column on the floor below it that was... close? to it. Then had the problem shortly after. Kinda dumb, since when you go to delete it directly you get a big warning, but you can delete it accidentally by doing this. Went and paid my taxes for...

    Xbox Megathread

    Yes and no. The announced handheld platform / devices won't play console-only games unless you stream them, and will only play games normally available via the PC store, as I understand it. So for example EA's NHL games and College Football won't be playable, because they're only on consoles...

    The bar was so low when it came out it actually ended up doing better than some expected I think, it even stayed at mixed for a bit after release before finally tipping into mostly negative.

    Dune Awakening

    So weird, was putzing around with the structure of my base and suddenly it said i needed to build the console again. I never destroyed it. Placed another down, aproximately where I thought it needed to go. Nope, was off by a bit, so needed to rebuild it to change the footprint. THEN it warns...

    Dune Awakening

    Do you stand any chance of dodging it really or does it turn pretty quickly? I'd think that if it just setup in a large straight line it'd be easier to avoid if you didn't freak out or continue in the same trajectory. Also, how fucked am I here? I went exploring, and missed my waypoint and...

    Dune Awakening

    Made it 19 hours, a worm finally got me. Saw a ship crash not too far from my base, in SW Western Vermillus... even ran to it with my soft step boots or whatever instead of the bike. No dice.

    Snagged The Ascent, thanks. Last played Ancestor's Legacy 7 years ago now... I remember being disappointed with the map sizes, troop limits, etc. Was a fun game but that made it a no-go for my group of comp-stomping friends. Did the same, my dupes: Just Die Already - 548YL-K4A46-KFWQC Brunch...
