Captain Invictus posted:anything like dwarf fortress that isn't hideous and incomprehensible? I had a good time with Keeperrl, which is sort of like a less incomprehensible Dwarf Fortress mixed with Dungeon Keeper (more the latter than the former). It's still in alpha right now, but the dev hasn't abandoned it, and while it's pretty barebones it's still very playable and is very sandboxy. Like DF it also has an adventure roguelike mode but I haven't played any of that.

Planning a PS4 LAN with one other person (ok it's my sister). Any good co-op games we should consider? I was thinking maybe Vermintide 2, or even Diablo III. I'd like to do Borderlands 3 when that comes out, but she said she doesn't like it. Any other games that I may not have thought of? Ideally I'd like a game that we can start leveling together, but also play (maybe a second character) on our own.

OK so I've played like every Space Trader game out there (I think). Here's the biggies I've played: Endless Sky Escape Velocity: Nova Drox Operative Transcendence 3030 DeathWar Privateer Elite Dangerous Sky Citizen Starsector Space Rangers And probably a bunch other I'm forgetting. What are some other Space Trader games I may not have tried? You know the type: Start out in a cheap spaceship and trade/shoot/fart your way to riches and better space ships.

Naev is not another EV, and available free on Steam. It's not the best in the genre, but if you're craving a new game it's there.

EVE No Man Sky A creative interpretation of the Homeworld series Maybe FTL? The eyeball-searing Gazillionaire Deluxe After that it runs pretty dry and you might be interested in hopping over to nautical trading games. I do know of a weird porn game where you gently caress your way to better ships if you're up for that kind of thing.

There is VoidExpanse which I've been eyeing for the past couple of months but I haven't actually played it so I don't know if it's good.

It's a 2004 Positech remake of a 2001 game. There are a glorious ZERO reviews online, but this  game has a Free Demo. Starlines Inc was cliffski's very first (maybe third, checking their mobybgames page after posting) commercial game, and a one-man project so let that temper your expectations, if it even works on modern operating systems.quote:Starship Tycoon puts you in charge of an interplanetary shipping company, you compete against AI controlled firms to survive in the cutthroat world of space commerce. Configure and upgrade your starships, hire and fire the crew, smuggle illegal goods, and wage price wars against your competitors.

Are there any honest to god turn based RPGs/Tactical RPGs on Android? I have a project going at work that has a lot of downtime in 5 minute increments and the state of mobile gaming seems to still be mired in terribly balanced f2p bullshit non-games.

If you're willing to accept the RPG-adjacent category of roguelikes, Sproggiwood is a very good goon-made roguelike with both accessible and masochistic difficulty levels.

What's a great space sim these days? The last time I played a great space sim was Freelancer, and I've been waiting for Star Citizen to come out for years, so I've given up on that one. I've heard good things about Elite, also Rebel Galaxy Outlaw pops up here and there as a recommendation. Anything else I should look for out there?

Elite is pretty but grindy and a little empty feeling. X3 is rich and detailed but can get overly complex/complicated. Don’t know enough about Rebel Galaxy Outlaw but Rebel Galaxy was great if a little shallow. Alternative option: Starsector is a great 2d top down mount and blade in space.

RGO is... not that. There are also some indie games like Void Destroyer 2, House of the dying sun and some others which are pretty cool in their own way, but not huge on production value/focused indies. Everspace is pretty great visually, but has a roguewhatever sort of campaign and time pressure per sector like FTL. I like it a lot as arcade space combat game but it's different to the mission based or free roaming stuff from before people decided the genre should be killed.

They certainly seem to have found a formula that milks a shitload of money out of neckbeards. I REALLY wish X3 didn’t have such an impenetrable UI. I had a lot of fun with it until I had to start managing multiple fleets.

haldolium posted:House of the dying sun House of the Dying Sun is the only recent space sim which gave me the same pleasure as playing Tie fighter, Starlancer and Descent: FreeSpace. It's not an open world like Freelancer. Only scripted missions but it gives you the epic feeling of actually flying a starfighter in space battles. And the artstyle is remiscent of Homeworld and just gorgeous. It's short and there are no big surprises but it's fun to play which is probably the most important factor in a game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56fCuO7JEy4 e: and you can play it in VR too SpaceGoatFarts fucked around with this message at 08:36 on Aug 14, 2019 |
