I think ops management tuned up my sperg because I've been dicking around with Production Line for a while now. I just don't do the fantasy stuff anymore, lost my flavor for it. I might start a new Stardew farm. I've got one in Year 5 with max everything and there's not much else to do until a new patch comes. I guess there's always Civ 6, I've held off that beast for a few years but now is as good a time as any to tie off and shoot it up.

The Rat posted:Yeah I've played through it 4 or 5 times and it's loving amazing, everything my 13-year old self wanted. The campaign mode is a little ho-hum, but the career mode is great and that's what most of my games have been on. Man you weren't kidding. I've noticed tons of great little game design bits in it. Really a fantastic job of adapting the tabletop without just making it a straight port.

ok I finished the campaign that Battletech game loving rocks, gonna spend my weekend on all the expansion packs. It's not just the nerdgasm of teenage Hagetaka (eh, eh? See where the name came from?) playing the best version of tabletop I've ever seen. It's the little design stuff that seemingly every game gets wrong. When your last unit makes its move, you don't have to hit OK to finish your turn. When you're plotting your movement, different colored lines point from the hex you're thinking of going to, to the enemy units that can see you, the ones that you can see, and the ones that you can fire at. God, it's so well designed.

Sierra made such good early games but was such a poorly run company. The way they made money on those titles they should be up to Leisure Suit Larry 38 and Hero's Quest Volume 47 by now.

I pretty much maxed out everything in Battletech, so I downloaded the 3025 Extended mod, which basically packs the whole nerdy grognard timeline and encyclopedia of Mechs and vehicles into it. Unfortunately, they also turned the stupid up. Run a light lance on a 1.5 skull difficulty mission, start off against two medium lances. loving retarded.

The Rat posted:Have you been rolling in career mode, or the campaign? Cause man I could replay career mode so much. That final mission in the Heavy Metal DLC is so great. I ran campaign through the vanilla game figured with 4 Bull Sharks and a hold full of lostech the game was over, then went to career in the 3025 mod. If the mission difficulty were tuned better, it'd be nice, but it's still a fantastic loving mod. I've had more fun struggling to run Wasps and Stingers and (thank god) a salvaged Phoenix Hawk than I did the last week of "Steiner scout lances".

I won 85 bucks off some dudes at the original MvC at 5 bucks a game, then they jumped me outside to get it back. They only took the 85 and left me my original 20 bucks though. I always thought that was a nice gesture.

Fallom posted:I have a really big issue with a lot of apocalypse fiction for this reason. Human history is full of misery and they’re not wrong to point out how venal and vicious we are, but we made tribes and civilizations with nothing guiding us but ourselves. It seems really shallow to endlessly dig into how people are bad to each other without really exploring anything else. Most zombie fiction is like this because 95% of the genre is, at its core, tough guy survivalist wish fulfillment

Anyone into Ace Combat, they cranked up the DLC machine again after the insane response to the 3 DLC missions. No missions this time around, but more of the superplanes from previous games, and a bunch of skins and other poo poo to weeb about.

I sometimes feel like I'm a dead-end evolutionary branch of humanity (or at least goonhood) because I have never, ever gotten Kojima, and I gave up a few Metal Gear games in because the dumb and weird overwhelmed the good and fun. It's like when everyone else I knew acted like Carlos Mencia was the greatest comedian alive, and I just figured I was missing a gland or something

If you're going to make another HZD run before the sequel comes out like I did, there's something pretty cool if you finish the DLC storyline before you get super-deep into the main storyline. Way more dialogue changes than you'd expect when you really start to learn some of the major relevations about Hades and Gaia, from Sylens and you. Much of tying into what the characters had already learned about Hephaestus and CYAN.
