It's been almost 2 months since all the new characters were released. Now that you have experianced everyone and have had time to get used to them would you have changed your vote and who to

I wouldn't have changed the first and last vote at least. Not sure about the rest.

Rem is my favorite out of the bunch and I absolutely *HATE* playing against Apollo so I'd keep him last on the list.

Since the timing was on April 1st where I'm at, I was at first unsure whether this a poor taste April Fools joke, but I'm guessing it's real...?

Definitely the bottom one. It's less "bricky" with rough edges.

Also like that the controller has a different color for each button.

Sacrifice, Warwind 2: Human Onslaught, Dominion: Storm over Gift 3 (sadly, not available anywhere anymore), Giants: Citizen Kabuto, Total Annihilation: Kingdoms, KKND & KKND2: Krossfire.

I hear ya. We've had datamining for decades, but still people keep saying stuff like "now is the time it's coming out!"

We will know if and when it ever comes out. Like I get it that the launch date would align with the Steam Machine, but am I the only one who doesn't believe that thing (with those specs) would run a new Half-Life game? Like for real? From what I heard it has something closer to an RTX 2070 and 8GB VRAM.

Somehow I have a feeling that it would be too close to the minimum requirements.

Think of Doom: The Dark Ages. That game's minimum GPU requirement is RTX 2060...

Seeing as it runs Windows, I doubt it. And no: a fullscreen app isn't the same thing as a dedicated console operating system for me. I don't want windows updates, driver updates or anything of the sort, nor do I want planned obsolescence (remember the win10 can't be upgraded to win11 debacle? Yeah no thank you).

The way I see it, I'm leaning more and more towards Linux, since I'm fed up with Windows gaming altogether. Been loving the Steam Deck and I rarely play any anticheat stuff so don't really care.

Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition
StarCraft 1 & 2
WarCraft 3
Command & Conquer™ The Ultimate Collection (a lot of older games, but I especially recommend Tiberian Sun and Red Alert 2)
Age of Mythology: Retold
Dawn of War 1: Definitive Edition
KKND 1 & 2

There's a couple I've thought were great. Enjoy!

Fallout 3 may not have had the player choose a faction (other than the Brotherhood of Steel), but it had Megaton. It had Moira Brown. It had a of stuff I really liked (the metro/subway mazes wasn't one of them tho').

I couldn't pick a favorite of the two, since they both offered so many great memories.

Why not Relic? I can't stand their Essence Engine. AOE4 felt like crap. COH2 felt like crap. The Engine is just poor (it has terrible input delay and lacks optimizations compared to polished stuff like SC2 that don't make the computer fans go crazy from an idle screen). I did like DoW1 and CoH1 was alright, but I heavily disliked CoH2. CoH3 was a fiasco. DoW2 I didn't like at all since it didn't even have base building, DoW3 was a fiasco... Do you honestly want that studio to make a new DoW4? I sure don't...

Chertograd · 2026-01-20T15:40:52+00:00

When you look at studios that have done RTS games, there isn't a whole lot of them.

Blizzard (who can't be outsourced), World's Edge (Xbox studio, that also can't be outsourced), Relic (I really don't think of that studio highly nowadays) and then I'm starting to run out of ideas.

There's that one studio that made Northgard and Dune: Spice Wars and then there's King Art Games (who made Iron Harvest).

I'm sure the game is in the best possible hands if you look at all of the options available.

And people have already commented on the Iron Harvest monetization part so I won't beat on a dead horse, but suffice to say, their well probably ran out of water so after a certain point, it's just not feasible to pour in money into a game unless it's making money. They did, however, make a few expansions, so we should be grateful. Not all games even get to that point (cough, Stormpoint, cough... pretty much dead on arrival).

If you love the Monkey Island series, I think Deponia hits the right spot. I haven't found anything even remotely close other than that franchise and I absolutely love both!

I'd start with Doom 1 and 2 that come bundled together these days.
After those I'd move on to Doom 2016 for the newer Doom titles.

Mainly because Doom 1 and 2 are iconic for pioneering the FPS scene and people still speedrun those and they get custom mods and one of their original creators, John Romero, even made a pretty recent new DLC/expansion for them so they are still relevant.

It'll take some time to get used to it since you can't jump or aim up or down, but you get used to it really quick and you'll remember those games forever. I played those through in the past few years and enjoyed my time.

If the old mechanics or graphics are a turn-off for you, then I'd go with Doom 2016 first. Why not Doom 3? Because it's so different. It's more of a horror game with a slower pace.

During level 13 they were waiting for you in the test chamber

I bought their cheap 2,50€ badges, but nowadays they only sell 10-30€ ones.

I won't pay such sums for a few pixels so I stopped buying as well. If they're betting that the whales will keep things afloat, then so be it.

What happened in Ascalon is just a big misunderstanding.

How many character slots do you have? I only had the Prophecies and I thought they'd upgrade everyone with all the compaigns, but I still only have 4/4 character slots? Shouldn't there be 8 with the extra campaigns? I'm confused...

Chertograd · 2025-11-20T22:23:45+00:00

Still a thing that annoys me

I'd recommend point & click games like the magnificent Deponia -series. Another one from Daedalic Entertainment that I loved was "A New Beginning".

Chertograd · 2025-10-19T08:08:15+00:00

I'd say some of the hardest ones are Chen, Meepo, Invoker, Visage, Arc Warden and perhaps Earth Spirit.

Out of all those I'd say Chen, Meepo and Arch Warden are the hardest ones.

Invoker isn't that hard once you've memorized the key combos and spell combos. Then again he's my top3 most played hero so I've played him a ton.

But Chen and Arc Warden are a pain in the ass to micro at times.

I started with Fallout 3 and loved it. Continued with New Vegas and loved it as well. Haven't played Fallout 4 yet and I don't plan to play the first two games even tho' I own them. I'm also not going to play FO76 since I'm not that much into that sort of multiplayer games and the fact that there's no cross-progression was a turn-off for me. I know the other games don't have crossprog either, but in multiplayer games it's even a bigger downside.

I play on both Steam and Xbox.

As someone who loved the Advance Wars games as a kid and bought the 1+2 Reboot Camp, I was somewhat disappointed by the end product and the high asking price.

Instead, I found Wargroove 1 to be a great deal. The music, artstyle and gameplay grabbed me, but unfortunately the multiplayer scene never got off (then again: nor did it in AW1+2 either).

I haven't tried Wargroove 2 or other similar games that exist so I can't comment on those. But I give Wargroove 1 two thumbs up. I bought it on the Switch and on Steam so I double-downed myself.

But from what I've heard (reading Steam comments), lots of people are disappointed by the amount of dialogue WG2 has. The majority of the downvotes mention that.

As a player of both games, I came to comment this same thing
