    Ultimate Admiral Dreadnoughts and Sword of the Stars 2.

    part of Sword of the stars 2 is even now it sometimes gets so laggy that you can’t finish a game. You just at some point declare that you’ve snowballed enough and can’t be beat anymore.

    Hundreds of hours.

    Ultimate Admiral Dreadnoughts is at least getting better now that the devs have abandoned it and modders are taking over.

    There was a shitty f2p MMO called GunZ online once upon a time. It was so badly programmed that glitches literally became the primary gameplay loop.

    I loved it. For those few that could get into it, it was a unique heaven of fps and fighting game that filled a void an over caffeinated teen with nothing but hyper focus and time didn’t know they had.

    Also just ridiculously horny people.

    What’s wrong with Rust?

    I mean, when you remove the toxicity, it’s a great single-player game.

    Ignore the thousands of hours I have in the game.

    I have the most hours in Warframe, but Factorio is on a different level. If you’re anywhere on the spectrum, it is pure crack cocaine. The only reason I haven’t bought the DLC is because I know it’ll consume a month of my free time.

    By the way, Warframe 1999’s soundtrack fucking slaps.

      Oh yeah, SS14 has finally made the game playable with high ping… anddddd has therefore I’ve put like 300 hours into it.

      Its really one of the few games that seems to avoid a community of “meta-gaming” or “instrumental play” which sucks all the fun out of a lot of games with huge roleplay potential.

    Deep Rock Galactic is a very good game that doesn’t deserve this slander (except Season 3 which has given me actual nightmares)

      Give Songs of Syx a try. One guy, who developed the game in a shed in Poland so he could get away from his family. You can try the “demo” which is the full game just one version behind. Once he gets tired of developing it he said he’ll make it open source. Think dwarf fortress but you’re capable of having a population of thousands. Oh, and nevermind the race riots or cannibalism.

    I kind of miss when No Man’s Sky was an endless, empty expanse. That sense of loneliness and futility was an emotional experience that it doesn’t have now. It’s become a much better game, no doubt, but putting time and careful planning into that long crawl towards the galactic centre felt right.

      Depends if you have the executive function that permits such ambition.

      If you don’t, yes. It you aren’t sure, try your best. It you do, I am pretty sure you won’t, and that should be your guiding star to go.

        How many leaks were there ? War Thunder forums are next level military security and intel threat … weapons grade autism

          There’s been enough that “Do you play War Thunder” is a security risk question that the US military asks during job interviews.

          And they just keep happening…

      Currently playing World of Warships. I play in 1-3 month stints and don’t touch it for months at a time. I always enjoy coming back to it because they just keep adding more stuff.

        I haven’t actually played WoT since they added tier 8-10 light tanks, but god did I sink a lot of my teenage years into it. I have been really craving it lately, but I know better than to go back to it.
