anakha posted:The simplest workaround is to save, close and restart the game every couple of hours. Surely there are mods that fixes this? Or is that touching to close to the source? Ragequit posted:I have not - I'll check out some videos. It has lots of expansions already. Grim Dawn is as close to a good Diablo clone as you'll get. Highly recommended. Darkhold posted:Though one drawback is that it's always better to brute force any problem with more and more robots with simple loops over making more elegant loops with fewer bots. A feature, not a bug. The game's teaching you how to build a botnet. HopperUK posted:Wildermyth has actually been all single mouse-clicks so far, so it might be worth an eyeball? Good character creation and progression. Combat is lackluster.

Darkrenown posted:I'm playing Mass Effect 1 in the legendary version and for unknown reasons when I hit the volume up key on my keyboard it toggles the HDR graphics setting. Anyone know how to stop this? I read somewhere that the legendary version doesn't allow you to rebind keys. Does increase volume sit on a function key?

Unlucky7 posted:Is there a good tutorial video for Rimworld somewhere? LIke, things you should know before you start playing? I asked in the Rimworld thread if it had a decent tutorial and it seemed the consensus was 'It is okay but you may want to watch an LP or something first' I agree with the thread. When jumping into Tim world for the first time, the game is quite overwhelming. Watching someone else play is a good way to learn the basics.

Rinkles posted:I guess preferably a sci fi game with team/ship management. I like the progression in FTL, but I think it could also work in something longer term. Think XCOM, where you build a base and get attached to your team over a long campaign (except with different gameplay). Rimworld is not ship management, per se, but you are handling a team building a base. It's open-ended, a lot of fun, and has a learning curve that'll keep you busy for a long, long time. There's also Space Haven. It's like Rimworld but on a spaceship: https://store.steampowered.com/app/979110/Space_Haven/. The game is still in EA, if that matters to you.

Just like the OP I think I'll wait a bit, (mostly because I've got other stuff to play, rather than solely due to it being EA) but I reckon I'll have to take the plunge on it sooner or later, for sure. Looks like my kinda game

GreatGreen posted:Is Kingdom Come: Deliverance worth it these days? I've always been an Elder Scrolls fan which is kind of the closest thing I can think to compare it with, but I'm not sure. Absolutely. It's a hardcore RPG, but what's fun is the character learns with you, i.e. the better you get at sword fighting, the better your character. The story is... decent, and there is plenty of eastern European jank, but the game is worth the time.

GreatGreen posted:How is the world exploration? quote:How big does the world feel? quote:One of the things that always bugs me about Elder Scrolls games (well, Oblivion and Skyrim) is that I never feel lost. Now, if you mean losing yourself in the world, the game world certainly can provide. There is a day/night cycle, and people react based on the time, too. quote:The way the worlds of Oblivion and Skyrim are setup makes you feel more like you're in a really big park more than "the open wilderness." How does Kingdom Come feel in that regard?

goferchan posted:If you liked MGS1 you should definitely try to play 2 and 3 one day, they're much more along the lines of the first one and they're two of my favorite games ever made. Your best option for both is probably emulation, MGS2 did get a PC port but it's pretty outdated. MGS2 is skippable.

explosivo posted:I picked up Horizon Zero Dawn during the sale, I had it once before but that was before a GPU upgrade so it kinda ran like poo poo and fiddling with settings only made it tolerable so I refunded. I'm having a great time with this now, just a really neat game what with the robo varieties of of creatures and the whole stripping away parts mechanic. I forgot you eventually get a mount so I gasped when the tutorial told me to hop on the strider I just took over. My only complaint so far is the runnin' around isn't the best; my brain is telling me it should feel like an asscreed game but it's definitely not that. There's a lot of awkward videogame jumping over rocks and stuff when it's not super clear there's a section elsewhere with the yellow "climb here" indicator. Take your time with the story. This is one of those games where collecting every bit of loose info and data pads will enhance the plot greatly.

Foul Fowl posted:not too bad, it's very easy to get into and the game very gently introduces its concepts (though some things like speed pips and whatever might be a bit confusing in the beginning but i'm pretty sure the game is good about listing all of these things). The game and all the DLCs are on sale for <$40. I've never played a Battletech game, and the turn-based strategy aspect intrigues me.
