Re: The Lounge Deathy wrote: My problem is finding a game worth playing. Games these days all seem like they're either just indie Minecraft spinoffs and/or procedural generated RPG survivals, probably with zombies involved as well. Nothing really new is being brought up and it's making gaming rather dull lately. Right now it feels like the only things to look forward to are any decent looking mainstream games and a handful of indie games.

Re: The Lounge Coops wrote: procedural generated RPG survivals, probably with zombies involved as well. I laughed, then I realised this part is specially true. There must be like infinite games like this since DayZ became a thing. At least in my case, I'm playing older games, mostly because I wanted to play games I knew when I was younger but never played, so I'm somehow living the childhood I didn't have with some games.

I'm reasonably sure that's been the way it's been for the past few decades. When a game does well, everyone makes "[game] but different", and a few others go in a different direction.

Re: The Lounge Ugh. No kidding. The number of minecraft knockoffs is getting depressing. So many in Early Access or F2P.

Re: The Lounge What if Minecraft becomes one of those games that come packaged with devices, like Solitaire, Chess, Minsweeper, etc.

Re: The Lounge I meant more like, instead of all those minecraft clones being called minecraft clones, they're called minecraftlikes.
Like roguelikes. It loses the negative connotation of the term "minecraft clone" and becomes a genre.

Hah  My brother has a build that's pretty similar in power, he uses it to play Vicky 2. And speaking of Vicky, I'm going to have a go as the USA, since it's been years since I last played and I am curious what a communist/facist USA would be like to play :p But first, I'll have to get through those horrible laissez-faire years... shudder.
