Well for one I'm not a dune fan so I think some of it is lost on me. However I did have fun with it at first so I don't think thats the main reason. I think it just has the same problems every survival building type game has, which is seemingly endless incremental upgrades, repetitive exploration and no real end goal aside from getting those little upgrades. I could see having more fun if I had gaming friends I could play with. I did have some fun with it, and it's probably something I will return to. It just felt like it was going nowhere.

Little bit of Dune Awakening but probably done with it. Franchise hockey manager 12 or whatever they are on now, this is definitely my relaxing game, not stressful at all. Then I have been fumbling my way through Victoria 3, 100 more hours and I should understand the basics.

Got a fancy new computer. Instantly stopped wanting to play video games. Decided to play Dune. It was alright, got bored. Now I am playing franchise hockey manager, which is basically an excel spreadsheet game... making good use of that expensive computer.

Playing Dune awakening. It's pretty fun so far. I would dread having to start over though, because the start really limits what you can do. Also I could see it getting pretty repetitive. The atmosphere is great. Trying to make it through a stretch of desert as a worm is closing in on you is very immersive. Not sure how popular the game is because I have yet to run into anyone... just abandoned outposts.

I dont really know for sure, but I have heard unreal engine kind if sucks for modding... so I wouldn't get my hopes up for Bethesda levels of modding.

I wonder if they will do something like rdr2 where they have the good bad scale but this time a relationship scale. Loyalty between the protagonists sort of thing

I enjoy Rockstar games, but the more they try to push "realism", the more out of place the combat feels. Rdr2 was the worst for this. Feed yourself, feed your horse, clean your horse, also drink an elixir while you are getting shot in the head repeatedly to heal. It always felt like they could just make your health considerably lower and drop 90% of the enemies you fight and the combat could atleast kind of match the rest of the game.... but I guess people like to feel like Rambo all the time in every game

Probably for the best. I ended up cheating and the end was pretty dumb. Can't really remember the details but I do remember being very disappointed.

I am definitely projecting. It happened to me in final fantasy 8 (I never stacked magic to raise the state boosts) I got to the end not needing it. My fault for not reading tutorials. The other was persona 3. Made it super far without bothering to combine personas at all. Didn't really understand the friendship mechanics. Again... my fault for not reading.

Sounds like it is holding true to the jRPG tradition of making you feel safe until the final boss gauntlet where you will figure out you played the game wrong and need to start over

I was so excited until I saw that it likely won't be RTS and an open world shooter instead... lame

My whole family, which usually votes NDP (far left, never gunna be in charge party), voted conservative this time around. So I am a little surprised conservatives didn't win. I still stuck to NDP because my riding is heavily liberal so it wouldn't matter. Im happy how the election went. I did not want conservatives but I also don't trust the liberal leader. Mostly due to him being a banker. Minority government will make him have to work with the other parties a little. Edit: also the Liberal party is actually the more "nationalistic" party in canada. Generally the conservatives want to be more like USA and Liberals cling to canadian national identity. However, if by nationalism you just mean ****ty to immigrants then yes... conservative is more nationalistic

I will be playing detective dotson as my next game. It's a bollywood styled pixel detective game. Looks cute. Hopefully its actually good, either way, it will at least be somewhat original.

Well if I hadn't just finished two first/3rd person RPG games back to back i might give it a shot, but i need a break so no Oblivion for me.
