  • I’m the exact opposite, in a different, but similar way that the other commenter is.

    I will fall asleep trying to play almost any turn-based/tactical RPG you give me. It’s just too slow for me, and I can’t focus on stats or stacking effects that much. That’s why I like real-time action games. I’ve been playing the hell out of Fallout 4 lately and that is probably the fastest-paced game out of the entire series. There’s snappy gunplay in first- and third-person with a dedicated bash/grenade button, and you can pop out from behind cover when you aim. Also the whole customizing and modification system with the workshop and settlements.





  • Lego Star Wars The Skywalker Saga (the last one that came out in like 22-23) has some good funny bits. The characters are voiced (with an option to go back to the classic “non-talking” characters) and when you’re in free play, sometimes the two playable characters will acknowledge each other.

    Like say you have Episode 3 Anakin, and you change the other character to Palpatine; Palpatine might ask him if he’s heard the tragedy of Darth Plagueis, and Anakin (or even Darth Vader) will exasperatedly say "yes, you’ve told me many times!" And there’s a bunch of others. Like Jar Jar getting memed on constantly throughout the main story.








  • On top of that, bullshit “reputation” rules should never exist here.

    When I first made my reddit account years ago, I remember being so confused when I couldn’t post more than one comment every 10 minutes (absolute bullshit arbitrary restriction), and when I tried to join a community with “too low karma.” “Oops, you can’t do that cause you’re an unpopular nobody and we don’t want you here… Yet.”

    What’s the actual point of holding someone back from joining your online community if they don’t have enough “points” on their comments or posts? It’s just such bullshit imo, and restricts everything an online forum should be.



  • Even with the world settings jacked all the way up it takes a stupid long time to mine just about anything other than stone or dirt, even with a top tier pickaxe and the requisite perks. And I will say exploration is a little iffy too, especially in the desert with all the verticality.

    I broke down and started visiting a multiplayer server where it’s basically just a big store full of everything currently in the game so I could just take what I needed/wanted.
