Fallout: New Vegas
Subnautica and Planet Crafter.
The best “just one more thing!” games I’ve ever found. Huge chunks of time just disappear for me and the people that I’ve had play it. Very rewarding.
Subnautica simultaneously my favourite “I like build base” game and horror game.
I really like the open-ended gameplay loop with a structured narrative. Had way more story than I expected going into it.
Explain Subnautica. I have played a couple hours but I don’t get it. I picked up some fish and some other stuff. I did some crafting but I don’t know where the cool stuff happens. Can you build outside your ship?
The first 4 hours or so can be a bit rough because it doesn’t hold your hand much considering how big the game is and how much there is to do. I suggest focusing on surviving and following your radio messages for a new game, while crafting all your basic tools from the crafter as you follow the messages. Craft and use that scan tool. And by the time the radio messages run out, you’ll find some cool stuff 😁😁😁
And yes, you can build anywhere! The world is your oyster 🦪
Oh man. Thanks to you I’m now going to be up all night playing Planet Crafter, I garauntee it… Game definitely has that “Just one more exploration!” Or “You cant give up, you’re so close to the next tier just do it”.
Not sure if it’s the simplicity (which I initially disliked) or the absolutely no hand holding that I love about Planet Crafter, but this game has me hooked, and I cant wait to see the fruits of my labor.
What??? You uninstalled it?
Now ye are going to have to reinstall all yer mods again (that is a game in and of itself though)
Haha, I’ll have to reinstall it. I’ve bookmarked few hundred mods at least.
Figuring out which mod pack I want to install took longer than my actual playtime atm 🥲. It’s always the same story with Skyrim
You know there is a skyrim mods community here on lemmy? Come break the game with us!
Cyberpunk. They fixed most of the issues the game had at launch. There’s a dlc coming out soon too that will add a bunch of hours, and with it they are reworking loads of mechanics for free. Can’t recommend it enough.
Did performance improve? I couldn’t get it anywhere close to playable on my 2080 super without dropping the quality to potato, so I gave up on it.
I’ve got a 1070ti and it runs very smooth on medium-high. Obviously not doing ray tracing or anything, and no mods, but I dial back some of the stuff like anti-aliasing too. Definitely worth giving it another shot if you already have it
The problems I have with cyberpunk stem more from the story. It’s depressing and has no real happy ending, just an array of at best bittersweet possible endings. Maybe the new DLC will fix that but otherwise it’s a bit too much art imitating life for me.
Ahh I love that part. Feels like a nice change of pace that the best ending (for me) is open ended with a little bit of hope. Don’t want to spoil for anyone else reading which ending I mean, but I like that it doesn’t wrap up in a fully positive way
I did much of the same thing
It turns out building a better pc and playing cyberpunk has the same effect as walking around a city on acid.
Who would’ve thought
Ruiner. F’kin banger soundtrack.
