    Underrail: Expedition

    Bump. Since we talked briefly about this in Rajaah's rpg thread. I'm playing through this now. so far pretty great game, would recommend. modern Fallout 1/2. or shadowrun. I didn't get the dlc. Theres a second one that came out back in Nov of 23 too. post-post-post apocalypse game...

    Once Human

    streamers have been eating this up. haven't tried it myself. watching streamers I would best describe it as death stranding+redfall, that makes all the right choices, instead of the wrong ones.

    Tetris (2023)

    play the game till it crashes? well shit, I beat modern games all the time then it seems.

    The Flash (2023)

    sort of. this was odd right from the getgo because Flashpoint was not well loved as a flash story. it ruined Barry Allen as a character/hero. and it destroyed the DC comic book universe, bringing about the New 52 reboot.. which was also not well received. so my argument here was, they didn't...

    The Flash (2023)

    Got to this. Its on amazon prime atm. This is... weird. its not the worst DCU movie. but man it has so many problems. terrible cgi is first. weird running animation.. Unlikeable Barry is second. FFS, this isn't Barry Allen. why would anyone make this character choice? (they can't just...

    Rajaah's CRPG Blog

    I'm playing Underrail right now, picked it up from winter sale. Im fairly impressed. its very low budget/indie and those aspects show. slightly dated in general as well. Reminds me alot of fallout 1 in themes and design. Not in my top 5 yet (not nearly far enough in to make that...

    What If...?

    It should always be pointed out, we don't actually have any idea what the pre-colonial populations were. they didn't have any records, or writing, or anything. its all based on guesswork, often by modern people with bias. People make statements like this as if its fact. its not. And...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    wasteland 1,2,3 might be what he's looking for as well. although, I suppose its not really a dungeon crawl either. to keep up with the Mortismal linking. there are dungeon crawls, which names are largely escaping me atm. tower of time, blackgaurds, ..

    Candy cane lane. did we have a thread for this? didn't see it get great reviews. But I actually enjoyed it quite a bit. The cgi at first was rough, but grew on me. I wasn't expecting it to go full xmas magic. It got quite a few laughs from me. lots of contemporary references, which...

    Reacher

    The gun purchasing scene really took me out of it. what store owner would sell a ton of guns to a guy being so shady and blatantly tipping off he was going to kill people with them?

    Rebel Moon (2023)

    started incredibly strong. Dead of the dead, 300, Watchmen. (yes music video's before that) But then just straight into the trash. legends of the guardians, the owls of gahoole, sucker punch, man of steel, batman v superman, justice league, justice league again, army of the dead, and now this.

    Rebel Moon (2023)

    generally well liked. amazing opening. but missed the mark on a few things. Squid in particular. also, black freighter.

    Civil War (2024)

    Foreign invasion of the U.S. after a civil war would be very questionable. Who would have that power? you need a navy. Who would let them? Like, it would require Russia and China to agree to do it, and split up what they grab. EU, UK, and Canada would have to let it happen...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I don't believe them. How can they possibly not be hitting F to open teh scanner up mid battle every 30seconds while trying to hit G to fire missiles?

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    damn, I had been playing 1.2.6 beta, and hadn't even noticed this. Battles and Sieges Introduced Formation Targeting. The system allows players to target specific enemy formations with one or all of the allied formations. Targeting is done by using the Charge or Engage orders. Simply look at...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I don't think JUST adding in the survival mechanics/fuel would solve the problem. thats just tedium on top of a broken system, if that missing system isnt there.

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    1.2.7 is LIVE. https://www.taleworlds.com/en/News/547 this is like 7 months of Beta changes. beta had been updating, but live wasn't. This is weather, new maps, tons of new bandit camps(some of these are great), auto resolve rebalance, engi exp for seige weapons, just a ton of stuff all...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I would argue thats the problem. they didn't. They removed the open world simulation. Skyrim is often called out for being dumbed down rpg/factions, etc from each previous incarnation. but its the most flushed out open world simulation. you feel like you could LIVE in skyrim more then any...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    "this game needs space marines" isn't addressing a core game loop problem. Thats not the same. This game, as is, is busted. It's missing a core game loop. this is a day one design problem. they fucked up. it can't be fixed without MAJOR overhaul. which means it can't be fixed at all...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I'll probably give it another shot. But, honestly I did turn it off and go back to Bannerlord for the night. It seems obvious to me this is missing a core game loop. its a space exploration game with no space or exploration. dlc isn't going to fix this. this is a big core problem. one of...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    so, after doing the initial tutorial I tried to go to another planet. couldn't figure it out, until I realized it was forcing me to go to new atlantis. so do that... and dick around this shitty city. huge. and empty. mazelike for no reason. the design is nonsense. business, and offices that...

    Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader (CRPG)

    I was kindof wondering if you had just randomly come up with it, or had been referring to his vid... did seem like too much of a coincidence. He does have some great wrath of the righteous builds. generally someone types out the build choices in comments, for easy access. do keep an eye on...

    pc is up and running. so giving this a shot again. Already my thoughts are mirroring lots of whats said here and the reddit. "poi are just far enough away from each other to be tedious, but also not far enough away to make any damn sense" 30 seconds of exploring, and "gee I sure would...

    20/m for 5 year life of a pc is 1200. which is pretty cheap. I find it hard to believe streaming can really do it without lag though.. did get frontier fiber 1 recently. 1000 up and down... some other thoughts. no mods? limited to their catalogue? seems mods need to be within the games...

    building that new pc. I have starfield via gamepass. hogwarts and cyberpunk are both on sale atm. although Im not biting, may do so during winter sales. Also have some of my current/older games that my system barely ran. bannerlord with larger battles/higher res. yum. maybe hit up...

    Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader (CRPG)

    I thought he was pretty negative honestly. He's generally pretty positive, and even he still calling out the bugs, and saying somethings wrong with act 3 in terms of story/progression. He did say it was LESS buggy then kingmaker or wrath at launch. but still, I'd recommend waiting a bit. the...

    "the humans are stealing navi children for some reason, and you play as one of those children, reconnecting with your people " lol. nah. and I thought the movies storylines were heavy handed and stupid. not going to even touch this game, even when I got it free via a new vid card.

    What are you playing?

    gave steamworld build a shot via gamepass. its very anno lite. not a ton of content, very little reason to replay after a single map playthrough. the rare game where the story actively HURT the game. what little story there was. Which is remarkable. put some good amount of hours into...

    theres also power level versus head in the game. Eve would be the strongest, if she actually wanted to fight and win. But she doesn't doesn't have the mental fortitude needed.

    Furiosa (2024)

    Prequel just seems like such a bad idea. Like, it CAN work with max, and characters like james bond, where each adventure is fairly unclear where it sits in the timeline. or indiana jones, where temple of doom, happened before raiders chronologically. Becuase, their stories don't interact. the...
