    7 Days to Die

    Hard to compare AF to 7DTD. They're vastly different games. I've had long playthroughs of both recently and they're both good, IMO. There are things I like and dislike about both. @Void , as far as your 7DTD complaints go, couple things: - Melee weapons are very viable into mid-late game...

    7 Days to Die

    Darkness Falls mod still same some learn by doing aspects but also has some books. It is also very punishing. Would not recommend it unless you have "beaten" the base game and are comfortable with it. I'd recommend at least 4 or 5 players willing to play on a regular schedule so that you can...

    V Rising

    Not sure if this justifies a new playthrough but it is a solid game.

    Dark and Darker

    I think the way to start having some success in Dark and Darker is to iterate on a single map until you are pretty comfortable with the spawns and extraction points. Eventually you will get some gear and get out by waiting quietly in the dark at some extraction point waiting on it to unlock...

    Vanguard of the Fallen - My EQ Based RPG Project

    I think Blazin may beat Pan'Theon to launch, with more features.

    V Rising

    We tried it with two people a bunch of times. It's nasty scaling. It seemed that some of his abilities don't kick in unless you you have 2 or more. I finally called it quits without defeating him. no regerts

    7 Days to Die

    DF Kaine is working on a new project so DF content is going to slow. Probably will never be properly finished.

    Bellwright - Medieval RPG Sim Strat

    7DTD is an unfocused mess but I have had a blast with it. Fair observation though.

    Bellwright - Medieval RPG Sim Strat

    I picked up Enshrouded when it was on sale but I was planning to let them work on content a little more before I jump in. Looks solid.

    Bellwright - Medieval RPG Sim Strat

    I have seen it described as a mix of Medieval Dynasty, Mount and Blade, and 7 Days to Die. Those are three games I have gotten a lot of enjoyment out of but a lot of people are leery of this developer as they have apparently been known to abandon projects. Anyone playing it?

    V Rising

    That's why I have sort of settled on Void and Wolves. Void hits pretty fast and is less of a skill shot since it is AoE. Wolves, if you can't hit the boss due to mobility, you can at least bounce to them off of an add. With Adam, I found that I was actually doing better by swapping out Void...

    V Rising

    I did like 5 more attempts on Adam last night. Got him pretty low in his 2nd phase a few times but can't finish him. Feels like it is tuned pretty hard for single player. Basically, you have to execute the whole fight perfectly.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    I got this installed and I am going to give it a try. Is there a specific class/build that should be avoided? Also, I am assuming that the best way to play it is to just run through the campaign first? Does that character then carryover into online play?
  14. BrotherWu

    V Rising

    No, I didn't notice that you could take out the generators but I did read it after my first few attempts. Generally I have tried not to read any spoilers and have just figured out each boss as I encounter them but Adam seemed much more difficult. Also, I don't know if you have killed...

    V Rising

    My experience so far is the opposite. I killed Valencia first attempt but I think my gear was level appropriate. Adam, though, WTF? How are you supposed to deal with that shit? The crisscrossed lines of electricity really inhibits mobility. He seems pretty tanky too. I have yet to do much...

    V Rising

    First full playthrough for me. Getting close to finishing. Pretty solid game. No real complaints except we need slaves to put shit away for us. @Caliane what sort of pleb uses 91% blood endgame? Go farm some nuns.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    50% off on Steam. Thinking about trying this out now that it has moved in the right direction.

    Helldivers II

    This is the way. I played competitive World of Warships with some friends for a while. Some guys would spend serious money, $100s or $1000s of dollars, on pixel boats that either turned out to be garbage or were eventually nerfed our made irrelevant by power creep. They just kept copy/pasting...

    Helldivers II

    I sort of wonder how they ever got such a great game out the door. QA processes seem to be pretty shitty. They had a money printing machines on their hands and all they had to do was proceed carefully and not fuck it up but god damn they have. Nevertheless, still a commercial success I guess.

    What are you playing?

    My advice to anyone who is thinking about it is 1) Definitely play it, but maybe wait on it to develop a little more. They have a pretty aggressive plan for improving it and I don't know how much replay value it will have given that it is a linear, exploratory story. 2) Degradation, mainly...

    Valheim - Viking Survival Game (Early Access)

    Did not know this had been added.

    V Rising

    Yeah 3rd partying that fight and killing them both is a common tactic and can help unblock if you if you're stuck. I got to about the middle of Act 2 and started having trouble with some of the bosses solo. Like I would get really close and just couldn't quite get a win. Probably getting...

    Valheim - Viking Survival Game (Early Access)

    It's a fantastic game and one of the best values ever on Steam. I've just been a little disappointed how the late game has developed over the last couple of releases. Looking for some more character depth, base comfort options, crafting stations, story elements, etc. Not just "Mistlands, but...

    Valheim - Viking Survival Game (Early Access)

    Did they add interesting new features or is it just rinse/repeat new resource, new mob types, annoying deaths?

    Valheim - Viking Survival Game (Early Access)

    Announcement of what? Release of Ashlands from beta to stable? It's a great game but they need to pick up the pace. Lots of things I would like to see before I start another playthrough. Have yet to completely finish it.

    Hades (Supergiant Games)

    I guess I have an unpopular opinion. I tried this game briefly, twice. Could not stand the art style, the voice acting, or the spastic gameplay. Now we have woke shit too? I don't get it.

    Helldivers II

    What exactly does the publisher bring to the table? Are they basically investors in early development? If so, then that's where their risk is I guess.

    Helldivers II

    Wasn't the argument for why they wanted this something something griefing? Smells like bullshit to me. Seems more like wanting information and linkages to sell shit.

    Like many things in life, there is plenty of retardation on both sides of this question.

    Helldivers II

    These guys have a great creative department but their QA and development processes are dogshit. They look like amateurs.

    Helldivers II

    Because they don't have any ideas on where to take the game other than constantly fucking around with the meta. I don't know why I'm complaining; I stopped playing it since I started having CPU overtemp problems with it. No luck resolving those so far.

    Manor lords

    So what do you guys think of this game so far? Wondering if I didn't give it enough time. It just felt like too many details thrown at you all at once in a not fun way.

    Manor lords

    Tried it out for about 20 minutes before closing it. You're immediately thrust into micro-managing a bunch of details and a bunch of building types. Not my cup of tea.

    Manor lords

    This game grabbed my attention a couple of years ago. I like medieval sims but this particular flavor being city builder, not so sure. We'll see. I couldn't get into Banished so I'll probably end up refunding this one. What I'd really like to see is a M&B/Bannerlord clone that does a better...

    7 Days to Die

    Damn. I searched for this thread and couldn't find it before I posted in the general news thread. Anyway, I am not sure what to make of the announcement. Money grab? Port to console and raise prices since it is 1.0?
