    Pre-Day 1 DLC has arrived...

    Perhaps someone here that plays ARK: Survival Evolved can shed some light on this. Ark, a game that is still in Early Access Alpha (and has been for a very long time) has now released paid DLC. We have now arrived in the era of pre-Day 1 DLC. Welcome everyone. Does anyone here play this game...

    Fallout 4 costs $110 dollars, Witcher 3 GOTY costs $49.99 GG Bethesda

    Just thought I'd point this out. The full Fallout 4 "experience" (and I use the term "experience" when referring to Fallout 4 very loosely) costs $60 for the base game and $50 for the Season Pass. Witcher 3 GOTY includes all expansions, has more than a dozen free DLC/quest/items, comes with...

    Master of Orion?

    Looks like this game is a finished product. Any 4X players here playing this? How did it turn out? Is it a good MOO or is it another MOO3? TotalBiscuit seems to like the game - he said "in 6 months to a year this'll probably be the best Master of Orion game that's ever been made" if they patch...

    Obduction and Witcher 3 GOTY Edition

    So there's this new game called Obduction. I don't know if anyone here played or even remembers MYST but apparently this is a kickstarted game by the same people, and it's got very positive reviews. Anyone try this game out? If so, thoughts? Wondering if it is worth a look... Also, Witcher 3...

    Planet Coaster!

    Apparently Frontier Developments (the people who made Elite Dangerous) are rolling out a new Rollercoaster/theme park simulator thing that has been in alpha for a while and will be a full release in November. This video I found makes it look very very good especially since it is from back in...

    No Man's Sky is a huge (marketing) success

    This has happened so many times and yet y'all still keep throwing your money at games you know nothing about except some fancy concept arts and marketing videos. This game is one of the best-selling games on Steam ever and currently has something like a Metacritic score of 2 and terrible Steam...

    Why do Super Mutants, Ghouls, and Humans look better in Fallout 1 than Fallout 4?

    Fallout 1 was made in 1997 when people were still bragging about their 200 mb of RAM or whatever it was back then. Fallout 4 was released in 2015. So why exactly do the Super Mutants, Ghouls, and even the Humans you talk to in Fallout 1 look more detailed, more interesting, and simply better...

    Fallout 4 went from Mostly Positive to Mixed in recent reviews

    Well there it is. With the release of its Vault Tec Workshop, the actual base game of Fallout 4 has dropped from Mostly Positive to Mixed in the Steam "Recent" reviews category while sitting at only "Mostly Positive" overall. This makes Fallout 4 the lowest rated Fallout game on Steam and the...

    The Age of Decadence: Great RPG, or Greatest RPG ever made?

    Well I finally got some free time to get into this game and let me tell you it is one of the best RPGs ever made - ever. This is exactly how role playing games are supposed to be designed! The amount of nuance in the writing and the depth of interactivity with the game world is staggering in...

    Age of Decadence?

    I know I'm late to the party on this one but this game is being called unbearably difficult or the greatest cRPG ever made depending on who you ask. I have some questions... How is the performance and stability? I'm reading about some people having crashes. What are your overall...

    The Depressing Future of Fallout (Youtube video)

    This guy is a bit late to the party since the game's been out for a while, but he gets it: If the constant negativity towards Fallout 4 and the future of the series seems depressing, it's because it is depressing for Fallout fans. It's not depressing for Bethesda fanboys, but for actual fans...

    Fallout 4 Season Pass Steam Reviews

    They speak for themselves. "Mostly Negative." My favorite so far is: "BETHESDA FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DON'T DO THIS WITH ELDER SCROLLS 6" I also see the word "scam" coming up a lot. Bethesda, I am disappoint.

    Fallout 4 after replaying New Vegas

    Started playing New Vegas again. I was first amazed at how much dialogue there is in New Vegas after playing Fallout 4. There are so many characters to talk to and they actually have interesting and useful things to say. It's not just talking with them to progress to the next repetitive loot...

    Shadowrun series?

    The GOG Summer Sale is happening now and I noticed the Shadowrun series on sale. Thought about getting it before but decided to wait. Anyone recommend this series? Some people say it's too linear, others love it. Also there's some good games on the GOG sale - whole Stalker series, Metro...

    Hearts of Iron IV

    After loving Stellaris (game is great!) I'm interested in other Paradox titles. Hearts of Iron IV is coming out on June 6th (interesting release date). Anyone going to be playing this? What to expect based on previous entries in the series? How historically accurate is this series? Thoughts...

    Sui Generis RPG by Bare Mettle Entertainment

    I remember the kickstarter for this a couple years ago. They released some alpha stuff and a sort of side game called Exanima related to it, but I haven't seen any news about the actual Sui Generis game being finished yet. Anyone familiar with this game? I don't see a release date for Sui...

    Fallout 4 getting increasingly negative reviews

    I noticed on Steam that Fallout 4's reviews have been separated. It still shows overall reviews at "Very Positive" but is now showing almost 4,000 recent reviews as "Mostly Positive" and if you scroll down there is a flood of negative, "Not Recommended" reviews from people with 80 or over 100...

    Stellaris thread, reviews, and opinions!

    So on a whim I bought Stellaris, the new Paradox grand strategy space game which is released today. If anyone else is playing it, please post about your experiences, opinions of the game, and advice for new players. This is actually my first Paradox strategy game (Europa Universalis IV looks...

    The number of quests in Fallout 4 vs. New Vegas and Skyrim

    Someone has done comparisons of the number of quests in these games. I would say the results are shocking but after playing Fallout 4 it's not - they clearly show that Fallout 4 has very limited number of actual quests in the game. What a miserable lack of effort put into this game. It really...

    It's a great time to be a 4X Space Strategy fan!

    Got to playing Endless Space and Endless Legend recently and these games are the most beautiful I have ever played. Amplitude Studios produces the best looking and best sounding games in the business, period. And then I check the intertubes and low and behold: Paradox is making Stellaris...
