Slime posted:A suggestion for ToME: Just cheat and unlock all the races and classes. A lot of the unlock requirements are boring, rely on luck or both and honestly a lot of the more fun classes are gated for no good reason. Don't worry if you suck, you'll improve more if you're having more fun by playing more interesting classes even if you're poo poo. i finally took this advice and now i'm having a blast as a skeleton brawler punching the poo poo out of all the living nerds.

juggalo baby coffin posted:where the heck do you find info about these updates? this game looks interesting but the reviews on steam arent great so im wondering if the updates will fix those complaints Keep in mind Sheltered IS a pixel version of This War of Mine without the action during exploration. I bought it when it was 75% off (~4$) and it satisfies that crafting/accumulation itch for me. I would not pay $14 as the game stands now though. It's still has that unfinished feel. Raids on your shelter don't occur until at least day 50 for example. The updates are in the Steam news thread for the game. http://steamcommunity.com/games/356040/announcements/

Neo Scavenger is so good. I have it on Steam and still play it pretty regularly. Unfortunately, the early-game is luck-dependent hell if you don't know which skills to pick. I have just the thing.

PMush Perfect posted:Neo Scavenger is so good. I have it on Steam and still play it pretty regularly. Oh yeah. NEO is a very good game but it also loving hates you and wants you to suffer. I've never managed to beat it but still fire it up and play it from time to time. I don't regret buying it at full price. On sale for that it's a drat steal.

So I know it's more lite than like, but I picked up Dead Cells today. It's pretty rad, and also appropriately difficult in that it keeps kicking my rear end.

I'm just salty because I made it to the first boss and got pushed into the corner and brought from 100% to dead without being able to get out. I was feeling really cocky though, as I had a great build going. I've beaten that guy with way worse gear so it's mostly on me but it still sucked. But you're right, the gadgets are immensely important. CC in general is huge as you can nuke most enemies before they can counter-attack if you're patient.

This is kind of a longshot but I played a weird first person tile-based dungeon crawler type game in like, the late 90s. I was a kid and it came on a demo disc with a pc gaming magazine. The magazine gave it a really lovely review but I thought the demo was great. I remember it being where I learned what a guild was, cause you had to pick a guild when you started a game. Anyone know what it would be?

Since we're doing requests, here's a super obscure one that I doubt anyone knows of. Way back when, like in the era of the late 90's/2000's I found this crazy top down space based RTS/action game. In it you built up a fleet and went through engagements piloting what I remember was basically a mech while your fleet duked it out against another fleet. As you won battles you earned cash to upgrade and buy new ships for your fleet, which you could give indirect orders too while fighting and they'd carry them out for you. Think Starsector back before Starsector ever even was a thought in the guy's mind. The game was obviously indie as hell and it was channeling some serious Gundam vibes in it's art design. It was way ahead of the era it came around in too. Last I remember it was in development when I got a copy of it tossed my way by a friend. Anyone have any loving clue what it was? It's been periodically bugging me. I've got no doubt that it's probably primitive by today's terms but holy poo poo was it fun as hell. I think I blew like several weeks just getting a massive fleet and slugging it out in huge engagements.

I sure wish Minecraft had as good a recovery system as you, Kyzrati. I lost my copy after the switch from a Minecraft account to a Mojang account, and my copy was a gift from my grandma, so I didn't have access to the email account used, either. Sure wish I could have just told them my name, eh? I'll buy Cogmind soon after it goes on Steam, though!
