My favorite landing was on mun. rocket tipped over in a hill, and after a second of panic and rolling I realised it was now pointed uphill. slowly throttled up and used the crater lip as a ramp, then poured it on once I cleared the edge

I have become the master of extending the gear on and then spinning real fast and landing on my feet on the mun, like the old breakdancing move

there's a multiplayer mod that kind of works. gus hobbleton and I managed to orbit, rendezvous and EVA to high five before it crashed, and that was a much older version than the current mod. (it's called darkmultiplayer iirc)

Squad has also stated that they want to add a multiplayer mode as a long term goal, but there's no timeframe on it and it's more of a wish list item

a proof of concept mod was released. it was unwieldy to actually play, but it convinced squad to commit to official mp but not in the next update

the saitek x-52 hotas is a really good deal at $75 right?
I'm ready to fly some planes but don't wanna spend a couple hundred dollars until I get another monitor or two

just to revisit this, the x-52 is pretty crappy, but the x-52 pro isn't bad

yes, the saitek/madcatz support is assy poo (and it can't be used with USB 3.0) but if you're playing elite dangerous it was basically designed to use an x-52 pro (the cockpit visuals are literally an x-52 pro for the controls)

i have an x-52 pro and it works just fine for me and makes space trucking extra awesome

I intentionally started a base defense in XCOM2 and wow it's kinda good for farming up levels for everyone if you can destroy the disruptor really fast and get everyone back to the ramp and just teabag every group that drops in.

Pfft, like advanced mechs are worth a poo poo when they run into a wall of overwatch fire from 4 turrets and a huge pile of my troops because you keep getting reinforcements.

I enjoyed firewatch

It's not really a "game" though cause there isn't any competition other than I guess man vs. self. And as far as I can tell there isn't any way to get a game over

More like an interactive novel, the way that was imagined but never successfully implemented in the 80s. Or a choose your own adventure

satellite reign is amusing for a while, but it does get mighty repetitive.

but the aesthetic and getting used to the routine is cool.

yeah maybe kind of not really

it's more like a couple hundred years after the fall of rome, and the empire had weird mesopotamia-flavored future tech that includes extradimensional superbeings, animate construct "demons", body modification including cybernetic eyes and metal tattoos, and stabbing a living god with a missile
