Finished the remake of Kathy Rain. The puzzles are mostly the same so it was a very quick replay. Better graphics, some extra scenes and the ending makes more sense, which was the biggest weakness of the original release.

When I first ever tried VR it made me really simsick - this was on the older vive tech. Since then the visual fidelity (and importantly refresh rate) has improved. It took time to get used to! Not something I was able to do off the bat.Smith I'm a bit envious of you, that you get to play Half Life: Alyx. I sadly can't. I'm one of those, who get's a splitting headache within 5-10 minutes, when playing in VR. Granted haven't tried the Valve Index, but have tried all the others.
Inscryption is an inky black card-based odyssey that blends the deckbuilding roguelike, escape-room style puzzles, and psychological horror into a blood-laced smoothie.
card-based roguelike with kinda dorky art? I'm in. Puzzles and twists are a bonus. I'm in the middle of a bunch of stuff so wishlisted it.Inscryption might be the most imaginative and original game I've played all year. I can't say too much without spoilers but the nearly 19,000 positive Steam reviews in the past 3 weeks speaks for itself. The developer's blub:
If you take the plunge, play it blind and don't read spoilers. Although the gameplay is excellent and tight, the story is the main reason to play and once you've seen it to the end, that's it. There really isn't any replay value. This is not a criticism, it would be like playing the same escape room twice.
You should try his other games Pony Island and The Hex. They're in a similar vein.Inscryption might be the most imaginative and original game I've played all year.

What does it include? I've been ignoring all of those since I bought all of the expansions as they came out.I'm considering giving the Anniversary Edition of Skyrim a try. I've only done one partial playthrough of the game, which I started about a year ago but haven't touched since April, so it seems like a good excuse to start a new character from scratch.
Since I bought the Special Edition (so many editions...) on Steam, I got the free upgrade already, but am not sure about shelling out $20 for the full upgrade.
Time Machine - hidden object game, I know, not exactly monocled gaming, but these games are great for language learning (currently Mandarin Chinese for me)!
Speaking of multiplayer Minecraft, my nephew sent me this video the other day.Still playing Minecraft. Multiplayer on the LTT server.
PS. Any opinions on Death Stranding?
Thanks for the hot take. This has been on my wishlist for a while but I haven't pulled the trigger because early access. I am also kinda wary because The Age of Decadence seemed like one of those games that promises build freedom but it needs specialized/optimized builds to realistically push through. Thoughts?I've been playing "Colony Ship: A Post-Earth Role Playing Game". It's by the people who made Age of Decadence and is set on a generation ship that will take several generations to reach Earth. You play a member of the crew several generations in, but still several generations from the target world. Society has essentially broken down inside the ship with slums, gangs and so forth, but with wealthy "officer" areas still around.
It's very immersive and unforgiving in combat, if you are not trained in combat never attempt it. Like their previous games you have to play in-character and think out the consequences of your actions to win. Currently in Early Access but very enjoyable.

I would still hold off on buying. I loved Age of Decadence and enjoyed finding out exactly how to get a character to the end of the game. But it is true that for certain builds this meant only a very narrow range of actions could get you to the end. This game is meant to not be as strict as that in its final build, but is not like that at the moment. Also there are plenty of bugs and the upper class officer section is only sort of built (you can only get ~60% into the story right now).Thanks for the hot take. This has been on my wishlist for a while but I haven't pulled the trigger because early access. I am also kinda wary because The Age of Decadence seemed like once of those games that promises build freedom but in reality is so difficult (like Wasteland 2) that it needs specialized/optimized builds to realistically push through. Thoughts?
Two weeks ago I made the terrible, terrible mistake of reinstalling Kerbal Space Program.
<sigh>
Free time sharply dropped to zero, as usual. Latest versions of Realism Overhaul, Realistic Progression 1, Principia, self-limiting to USA pieces and hard difficulty settings make for a pretty painful playthrough.
I've barely managed to keep pace with real life so far, but I'm in 1962 and will probably start lagging behind now. It's just so freaking difficult to have enough money to keep up with both the Soviet and American space programs...
Don't knock it till you tried it!I'd probably want to move there if it wasn't a cruel and oppressive dictatorship
Star Citizen is free to play until December 1 if anybody is interested. They've gone over $400 million in crowd funding at this point!
