This doesn’t look good… I hope I am wrong but definitely not buying day one.

I am asking this as I am interested in how other people choose games and think about things but you choose games to buy by the looks of it or does gameplay mechanics play any role in it?

I have been playing games since 1988 so I have played a lot of stuff during my whole life but I have never considered only buying games of a certain genre or camera perspective etc. Gameplay is what catches me and the amount of indie games in my library is proof of this. That said I mostly play to see and experience different rules and mechanics in games. Very seldom I finish a game because once I figured it out it is probably dead to me as I find something new to play. There are exceptions of course. And yes, I know I have a problem 😂

Thought you meant gog galaxy client.

Can confirm. Spammed the shit out of those buttons and it finally worked.

Only game I know about is victoria (only played the latest) but is not in the time area you are looking for. Economic games are pretty few and I found nothing back when I were looking.

What? Where? Says windows and Mac for me.

Yeah. Too bad that you can’t pause and keep the 20% off the store any more. Oh well I don’t buy much over there anyway.

I think they are out of keys. Doesn’t list the game any more, only the soundtrack.

Oh nice. They even have a post about RSS feeds which I use every day to get my gaming news. Added!

Wait… Older genres? Never thought of it that way but it is true that there are some new ones. When is a genre old? 20 years, 30 years?

I got about 30 hours doing most stuff. The thing is that there is more of the game after the story is done, about double the content or so i have read. I did not do that part myself so can’t say much about it.

I also tried to get diriger games to install with heroic, lutfisk or whatever but never got it to work. Threw the installer to steam and it just works. Weird… So I just do everything through steam now instead of messing around.

Why would you need 1440p on a small screen like that? I think 720p on the original switch was fine and see no need for anything with a small screen to have so hig resolution. Especially since that means less battery time, just waste of power.

There is a zoom function. Haven’t tried it myself yet as I haven’t had the need yet. But there is on the deck.

Had a lot of fun with the demo of this one. Ha e go be atleast half a year ago now. Looking forward to it.

Same here. Booted windows one time because I needed to fix my 8bitdo controller.

About 20 years ago I played world of warcraft every day and every awaken hour of the day or just about. School was over and I lived with my parents and was “looking for work”. Let’s just say that I played vanilla so much that I had guild members calling in the middle of the night to get together for world boss killing.

Since then I have realized that is not how to go about in life and last time i really got stuck was with Factorio.

Probably game of the year for me. Such a rollercoaster of emotions every time I sat down and played. Still have to play the bits after the story is over.

You can play without biters. Just pick the option before you start the map. Or pick friendly mode to have them there but they never bother you until you attack them is also an option. A lot of settings before you start a new game, check them out :)

I played Factorio first and since my friends are “done with Factorio” (not sure what’s wrong with them but I think I need new friends) I agreed to play satisfactory with them. It was fun for a couple of hours then it just started tobuild up rage inside of me because of so many strange or stupid design decisions the devs made. When we got to trains and I started building that was when I hit my rage limit and boiled over. My god those stations are huge and the unloading was the most stupid shit ever. Then all the small finicky tricks you can do to slim your builds… And this you want to learn/do since blueprints are small. Don’t get me started… Never started the game again after we were done but have a couple of hundred more hours in Factorio since then :)
