Worst performance how? I've been looking forward to this one but haven't followed development at all.

Played some of the outer worlds. Finished the intro section. I'm sure I'll come around to it but I don't like how it started. These sorts of games the more blank the slate for your character the better (imo). This one they really have a backstory and you start as the captain of a ship. Not a deal breaker but definitely making it harder for me to get into it.

If they made a mr house on life support statue i might be tempted

I feel like I'm the opposite. I got my phone, music and the game volume up. Now that's ADHD. Must stimulate myself or I'll have to have thoughts

I started over "those who rule" due to FOMO. Turns out one of the people i thought was receuitable was not. I did save him and let him live though, so maybe there will be a call back to it at some point. I am stuck on a level I struggled hard with the first time. If I just wanted to beat the level it would be no problem. It is the side objectives. Main mission is "survive for 12 turns" easy. Side missions: "Save the villagers" this one gets me occasionally but for the most part it's easy to save them unless you get some bad RNG The hard part comes with there being two boss type characters on opposite sides of the map. These boss characters are holding useful items. You don't have to kill them but FOMO. You have to defend a church from waves of enemies coming from two directions. All while pushing forward towards the item holding boss characters. These boss characters are standing behind where the waves of enemies spawn in. Even all this would be doable. But 12 turns makes it very difficult. You essentially have to get close enough by turn 11 to have the boss come out of his spot and attack you. While hoping that does not kill any of your characters. I have gotten close so many times but then an archer comes out and kills one of my characters and I have to restart. The worst part is that you can't skip the enemies turn, so after failing my self imposed mission, I have to watch the rest of their dang turn before restarting. Edit: also the AI is not stupid so they will attack the person closest to death

I am fairly terrible and getting mods to work, so those collections seemed like a good idea. But yeah I probably wouldn't do that again.

I bought this one but never played much of it. I'm not a big graphics person but the character models looked so bad at launch... either my standards have lowered or they improved. Maybe I'll have to give it a other go. Are you enjoying it? Also... it is black geyser right?

I installed one of those mod compilation things on nexus and it instantly made me not want to play because they made every woman with an Itty bitty waist and a round thing in your face. I got sprung and decided it was too weird for me. Never played passed the character creation screen.

Those who rule. On chapter 9 and i just realized I have killed at least two people i could have recruited... there is an option to talk to certain characters during battle and they join your side (making the mission easier) one of them was some kid I let go a mission earlier, and my dumb ass didn't think to talk to him. Just thought "well guess he dies now" The other was a viking so I feel less bad about that one... I am tempted to start over, I think the battles will be a lot easier second time around but still.. Edit: i started over. I make the exact mistakes I did the first time.

Playing "those who rule" turn based tactics JRPG(style). I am enjoying it, but it's perma death for your units. So it takes me like 10 tries every level because I can't handle losing a character forever. MAYBE later when I stop liking a character, or have too many, I will allow some to die. The story is pretty basic so far, but im only on the third non training fight. You control some ranger group troops. Everyone is betraying everyone. You're very clearly fighting for the bad guys. I hope it turns out everyone is evil, just like real life. There is no world map or anything, just dialogue sections followed by a fight. There are lots of conversations between the different characters, which is kinda interesting because characters can die so you can definitely miss out on side objectives and stuff. My only real problem with it is that I'm constantly restarting fights due to perma death. Which is fine, but they make you go through the dialogue over and over which gets annoying after the 10th try. There are story choices you can make, but it kinda feels like those choices don't really matter. Example. Very early on you can choose to surrender or to fight. If you choose to fight it just cuts to black and you move on to the next section... I can't imagine choosing to surrender would give you anything different, though I have not tried. I dislike pointless dialogue choices. The only game I use a walkthrough guide with are the persona games. Mostly because there is a "correct answer" that has positive effects, and bad answers are just bad. Often there is no discernable reason for that answer to be correct. Or maybe it's just too cryptic for me to tell.

I kinda get it from a creative standpoint. It would be like making a movie and then having people want an option to remove parts they don't like. Not a perfect example but i could see people wanting their creation to be experienced as intended.

This very accurate. Even when I tell it to be more critical it ends up reverting to "wow great question you're so special"

I wanted to start a YouTube channel where every episode i burn a different countries flag... but then I realized I dont do things, so I decided against it

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.

Israel has a right to defend itself from threats real or imagined

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
