This conversation sucks rear end but I'm hesitant to shut down actual media discussion since y'all took the question with way more good faith than it may have deserved. Just don't get loving weird in here!!

remnant barely has loot or interesting character progression. It's not a bad game but I would not go to it looking for a loot fix.

You're putting words in my mouth, I never said anything about people working multiple jobs / minimum wage - obviously that's a serious problem. My original post was saying that if you HAVE SKILLS and don't like your work environment then go somewhere else. Anyways I'll just stop responding now since most of you don't seem to be willing to have an actual discussion and are instead just saying "you're dumb and your opinion bad" which is not how you change someone's opinion lol

Good move! In fact, think carefully before posting in here again!

In the interest of the beloved practice of collective punishment, next time I'm gonna change the thread to being the 'PC Gaming Megathread' as a punishment to you all. Not fair, I know, but it's important to establish that I am extremely uncool.

Seriously though any other store threads should stay because since they are smaller they can have more specific issues.

Just to be clear, the thread title is almost immaterial here, it's the whole new mods coming in and acting like by not going along with this we're somehow loving up their cool plans and being smug about it. It's not a great look.

Just to be clear, again, I made a joke and some people were in support so someone took the initiative to change it. There were no cool plans. It was just assumed that people wouldn't care if the threads title matched its actual content.

I will say that I do lurk this thread quite a bit but never post, so I get the criticisms about visibility and I can try to post more so it feels less outta nowhere.

What video games do you play? I have been playing Warhammer 40k Space Wolf and it's surprisingly good for a mobile game port. Good PC options, the F2P bullshit is mostly gone and instead I can focus on the weird design.

It plays like XCOM but every unit gets a deck of cards for actions so if you need a heal potion and draw a sword instead you're hosed. But there are cool item combos and you can make overwatch automatic for units. I like it but I doubt I'll finish it.

I did actually just play Mechanicus - it's a pretty solid XCOM-like, my only real issue with it is that it's a too easy on the normal difficulty if you're familiar with that sort of game.

I also just bought Demoncrawl, I was on the fence but the giant post upthread pushed me into it

i'll admit a double standard where I'm perfectly fine with smaller devs like the Factorio folks having such a stance on sales but think it's gross when a years-old call of duty game or the sims is still full price

The "Realms Deep" expo thing is still going on and a billion indie shooter games are announced every second.

Most importantly though is an expansion to Amid Evil: The Black Labyrinth.

Also the aptly named Hellscreen:

could not be more hype for more Amid Evil, I beat it on the ~secret difficulty~ but have been mulling a replay.

also I don't know when it was added but playtimes in your library now show fractions of an hour played and i'm way into that

So I wanted to just ask the thread - what do y'all think about untagged spoilers? These games are pretty old but people are also constantly picking up older games due to sales/word of mouth. Generally it's left to whatever the thread culture seems to be, but this one is so wide that it might be a special case.

I'd especially like to hear from lurkers/seldom-posters on this since I imagine this thread has a huge population of lurkers.

I somehow became Steam friends with Audish and they write reviews for tons of games on there (though I think they may be on a break from it for now) and it's actually been one of the most helpful metrics for shopping on there.

i'm only like 5 hours into Y7 but my only real issue is that, mechanically, it's a real slow burn to open stuff up but I think it ends up not being huge because the plot moves along well. you're not in a persona issue where just, nothing happens for the first few hours.
