it's ok but weird, couple of neat ideas but it feels like it could have used a few more polish passes

is sunless sea good, or is it bad? please let me know

it's very bad. the economy's super hosed up and you need to grind like a motherfucker to do anything. the devs are aware of that and their answer's "lol you're playing the game wrong, see ya" and occasionally patching out any way people find to make money

I've enjoyed the couple of hours I've spent on it but the prices are definitely very weird; I've never come close to being able to afford any of the upgraded boats, and there are entire classes of weapons (e.g. torpedoes) that you can't use at all on the starter boat

works out kind of okay as a horror (?) thing, like old resident evils: the game is so broken (?) that you have to run away from monsters rather than fight them

idk, maybe you hit a brick wall at some point right after where I stopped playing and need a bigger ship/bigger guns to continue. that would suck. I've found the cash rewards you get from missions & exploration work pretty well at letting you regularly upgrade your poo poo while still keeping you on the edge of starvation/running out of fuel, tho.

idk if it's still that way but buying better boats was outright detrimental for a while. you burnt fuel way faster on them and fuel's a) real fuckin' expensive and b) a game-ender if you run out. that's the problem i ran into, the game expected you to go out and explore but if you got unlucky exploring you basically couldn't bounce back with how expensive poo poo was. also trading's real bad and is basically the only way to scrape by without exploiting poo poo

which would you pick: sunless sea or darkest dungeon

i'd like a spooky roguelike to play

sunless sea is a bad game that won't be getting better and darkest dungeon is a good one that will, so darkest dungeon

som is good for like two or three hours, then you get too powerful and it's a dumb cakewalk. the first couple hours are real cool though

Should just make a thread for that OP. Megathreads aren't very cool. Also what kind of person reads a megathread just to see if someone has mentioned a game they've played. Whereas if someone posts a thread, the people who are interestd in only that game can join in and others can ignore it. Frankly I don't see the point of thist hread.

yah good point
