Is it like most of these games where the concept is super pimped when people talk about it but the actual gameplay is shallow and limited? I hate that poo poo. Burned me when I finally played FTL, and Teleglitch.

Pitdragon posted:yes, definitely. pretty much. Atmospheric and fun, though i think it lacks the replayability to back up the multiple death component. Excellent music though.

If you want a game with good atmosphere and also good gameplay get Darkest Dungeon.

Some faux nerds say that it's all about the writing, but actually it's not. If you were to take away the overly complex excel related RPG wank it'd be a pretty sweet game to play on the iPad with metal gfx.

I never understood the hype for that game. the main appeal of FTL is the actual mechanics of controlling your ship and crew. if you're not into that then it probably won't be a very appealing game.

it would be made a lot better by: 1) a note system so you could remind youself to take 5 widgets to a place 2) storage in london so you didn't fill you ship up with poo poo you got but didn't want to use right away

mods plz change title to the "game" sunless sea. its a good choose your own adventure novel/slot machine but I hate how all the "gameplay" systems were balanced by a satanist chimpanzee.

icantfindaname posted:why? it looks like bog standard steampunk lovecraft poo poo to me, bolted onto a clone of FTL the actual meat of the game is almost entirely divorced from the game part. Every sixty seconds of sailing you are allowed to play one (1) storylet in any port. Which storylet you get is mostly random at best, black magic at worst. Some storylets are stuff like "take these tomb-colonists on a charter tour" and let you actually "play" the quest, but most are little vignettes, like the browser game version. The vignettes are cool but they are not what you spend most of the game doing. Instead you'll be spending most of your time waiting for your storylet OK light to turn back on, and making the money it takes to keep going while doing that. But that's not really very fun or interesting. FTL, on the other hand, at least had a fun core experience.
