Video Games General

A video game popped into my head that I once saw on steam but cannot remember the name of, if anyone knows it please lmk it's driving me crazy.

You know the animation of a fallout 4 character getting into power armor? Imagine that but for a pair of massive overengineerd digitigrade 3 toed metal legs, that's like all i remember and people running around in them

No it's not Biped that's the only game popping up when I search it, the art style was not cartoony from what I remember.

I think it might have been a platformer but don't quote me on that.
 
I wonder if it's worth it to buy a Switch when it's near the end of its life cycle just because there are one or two games (that I can think of right now) I want to play.
 
You know what I realized after seeing this picture (aside from that it's funny)?

Pokemon doesn't have any Fire Snake pokemon at all. Closest thing I could find was Salazzle which is a Fire/Poison Lizard Pokemon. But no Fire Snake. You'd think this kinda pokemon would've popped up at some point, but no.
Kinda weird in hindsight.

Well, Sony did it [rerelease] Morbius to great success, so why not Concord?

Morbius is MCU, MCU even in earlier days was based off an established/known franchise/series/IP

Concord has no "past" to prop itself up as some kind of "legacy/sequel/remake/remaster"

Haven't watched this Morbius movie, but ever heard of the term "Narm Charm" as in "it's so bad, it's good"....that may factor

In other news, it appears that Concord is going to try and revive their game.

I hope they try. A genuine repeat of Morbius would be a riot to watch.

If nothing else, I will laugh my ass off if fucking Concord of all games manages to get an actual, proper PvE mode before Overwatch did.
 
I think reality just had a cramp.

Still playing Cat Fantasy. Current event has a wild twist at the end.

You visited another world in a dream that wasn't a dream...

...and that other world existed as a gacha game in the world you live in.

So a gacha game had an event where you visited another world that's a gacha game in their world.

You only discover this in, I think, the last five or so lines of the story content.

Somebody call Kevin Sorbo.
 
So there was that hilarious random dialogue in Snowbreak I felt like sharing given how funny it was.

Not exactly in those words, but the last bit was funny.

Yao: "Adjutant, help. I feel sluggish and I'm aching all over."

Adjutant: "When does that happen?"

Yao: "Whenever an holiday nears its end."

Adjutant: "Isn't that your usual 'Lazytis'?"

Yao: "And yet I keep feeling it."

Adjutant: "Maybe you wouldn't if you no longer had holidays."

Yao: "Such an evil idea has no place in this world."
 
Started playing Palworld finally.

For a Not!Pokemon action/survival/basecrafting game it's pretty good so far. Though I'm still trying to get out of the stone age.

Also kind of annoyed that Level is NOT indicative of difficulty. Level 9 Daedream: Easy. Level 11 plant elephant thing: Murdered. Level 11 Alpha Chillet: Kiting. Of course that boss fight would've been easier if I'd had any arrows because Melee attacks REALLY do not cut it.

Only other major gripe so far is the lack of tooltips on some things. What does the devil symbol on this Alpha Chillet I caught mean? I suspect I don't have enough badges to train it, but in this game that may mean it tries to murder me when summoned, so. Fear.

Really it could use a bit more of a tutorial in general, though it's probably all in the Survival Guide... but that's a wall of text I haven't gotten into yet.

Haven't gotten to any of the fucked up shit yet, but I've only spotted that first tower, so.
 
I can't help but have serious thoughts about Minecraft forks about a game that ended up turning into an absolute sandbox when one of the major ideas during the Notch Years was making it an open world RPG. Which sounds interesting on the surface but I can't really think of any executions outside of niche indie-games. With everything current still in tech-demo stages regarding 3D pixel art.

An ideal is Dwarf Fortress Adventure Mode in 3D. Which basically requires a lot of background procedural generation to make an engaging world that isn't just Cubeworld Beta. Or that one open-source Linux clone that I know exist but haven't seen much gameplay of.

Completely unrelated edit:
New Indie games to look out for!

I have downloaded Emulators, but yet to actually try them due to a lack of games

I have met someone who can supply a big amount of games, but I have no choice in what I get, all I know is that they are PS1-PS3 and supposedly all popular

Would have to leave my Steamdeck with him and also delete my MicroSSD of its contents

Think it'd be worth it?

That sounds extremely sus. Especially if you don't actually know this person. Also I don't think we're supposed to discuss piracy-related things.

You can PM me for entirely unrelated reasons if you'd like.

The super popular first-party games are easy to get, but third-party games even six months old are a pain in the arse to get physical copies of. Doesn't help that the second-hand copies go for the same price as the digital versions, at which point the problem is the Switch's internal storage, and you'll need a good micro-SSD.

No, you do not need a micro Solid State Drive (not sure that's even a thing), you need a micro Secure Digital card aka a microSD card. 2TB is the limit supported by the Switch, but I'm not sure those are easy, or cheap, to get your hands on, so a 1TB card might be a better bet, if still fairly pricy.
 
Continuing from the day before yesterday, Rusted Warfare has to be one of the BEST and most underrated indie RTS games out there with an impressive modding community. There are mod authors with multiple different total conversions which change it from a Total Annihilation successor to traditional RTS games, and more. Like, I've only scratched the surface because there are some that use the game as an engine for completely different genres.

I've ruined my sleep cycle last night on an Age of Empire-like mod that scratched the itch of leading a tribal warband which escalated into me spamming horses and boats.

But the most impressive has to be how the AI actually utilizes naval warfare when given the option rather than being forced to on naval maps.

9/10 It's the best five dollars I've ever spent.

Rusted Warfare makes most RTS shit by comparison. They UNDERSTAND the genre.
