ACAB, it’s not complicated. The A stands for All. Catching a terrorist does not absolve you of all judgement
If you enjoyed Firewatch you’d probably like
- Gone Home (somewhat the OG of this style of game)
- The Vanishing of Ethan Carter
- What Remains of Edith Finch
-
Disco Elysium
-
Citizen Sleeper
-
1000xRESIST
Japanese and somewhat fan servicey at times but also recommended:
-
Nier: Automata
-
13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim
Tank controls have been pretty universally despised for many years now. Basically since we got analogue sticks, tank controls never really made sense.
Stuff like the Grim Fandango and RE1 remasters were offering alternate non-tank controls back in 2015 and there’s probably earlier examples too
Were you already wealthy or just a gambler? For me the idea of throwing $800 on a random share just because it was the cheapest is unfathomable
Ah, a fellow Into the Aether listener perhaps? Or maybe just a big JRPG fan 😁
I gotta check out Trails at some point. The whole tetralogy thing kinda puts me off in the same way Yakuza does but you gotta start somewhere I guess!
If you liked this I really hope you’ve dug into 1000xRESIST. They’re not super similar but enough so that I think if you liked 13 Sentinels you’d probably like it also
Always love to see Mole Mania get some love. One of Shigeru Miyamoto’s earliest titles he worked on also
What are your picks of the genre?
I’ve also tried a whole bunch, my favourite is probably Rogue: Genesia, I really like the challenges and metaprogression over some of the other titles I’ve tried
This looks rad!
On a similar note I Wanna Maker which is more or less Mario Maker but free and tonnes of developer created and user created levels to play through.
Simple premise is basically Minesweeper, but all the puzzles are handcrafted with some neat designs and concepts that will stretch your puzzle solving to the limit. Also importantly, no guessing required to solve and it’s dirt cheap for the amount of hours of puzzles you get!
Taiji was waaaaay harder than the Witness for me personally, but great choice. The vibe and music and what not is super chill also
Man this made me feel guilty downvoting. Great game, a real surprise packet for me, think I got it in a Humble Bundle and tried on a whim and had a great time.
Think it’s an Aussie dev (single person?) too, and still getting pretty frequent large content updates
RetroAchievements has also been archiving patches for a little while but not everything, and discoverability is not great (I was using RomHacking to learn more about the patches)
I completely gave up on the game after they killed the PvE / skill plans for 2 (around Lifeweaver launch), but I played quite a lot of 2 from launch and agree. I really like 5v5 and team structure wise to me the game felt in a great place with the change.
My guess is that they’re still bleeding players and looking for any shot in the arm to bring the oldheads back
Do ya’ll not have beef/chicken/veal schnitzel over there?
OP is not saying “any meat” as in “every meat”, just ones specifically designed as crumbed. It’s pretty popular here in Aus to have breaded meats.
Uhhh no. The current government is a centre-left party not too dissimilar to the US Democrats.
They’re still fucking useless but at least they’re not dangerously incompetent like the last few right wing governments, or dangerously competent as the current opposition leader (who is an ex-cop) would be in power
Duck Detective is great, perfect short game. Hopefully they have the framework there to do more cases like Golden Idol did, because I would love to play more
