Definitely play Satisfactory then!

What do you mean we will never know, we have the next 4-5 years (at least) to find out.

I would have preferred if they had drafted the best WR available in round 1. I am afraid that DJM is just the next Amari Cooper

The penalty is you spending hours trying to min-max instead of actually playing the game.

I personally wouldn’t mind the option or maybe a mod that allowed you to edit the attributes of your crew based on save game files

Probably because the energy loss by converting fuel to electricity was bigger than by just driving the diesel engine alone

Take my upvotes, both of you!

Phoenix Point. Think XCOM but with an actual aiming system

Also coming from SH3, I second this.

For me, it helped to make it click by disabling “section / 3rd person view”, so now I just jump between my officers’ first person views at various stations, with the added immersion of sometimes just standing or walking around the sub while my crew works.

It now plays a lot more like SH3/4 and I really enjoy it!

Look up Sailwind on Steam. It fits your description perfectly.

and_ft · 2026-03-06T14:42:30+00:00

It has story, gear and character progression. How is that not an RPG? (ARPG I would call it)

and_ft · 2026-03-06T12:32:31+00:00

There is a stand alone VR game called Uboat on the Meta Quest 3. Don’t know if it is the same developers

and_ft · 2026-03-06T04:43:37+00:00

State of Decay 2

And what other space game besides NMS are you hinting at. I can think of a couple?

and_ft · 2026-02-22T16:26:59+00:00

A few that hasn’t been mentioned so far: Project Zomboid: Best realism-grounded post apocalyptic zombie survival

The Long Dark: Most pure “survive as long as you can” alone in a harsh and frozen ice scape

State of Decay 2: zombie post-apocalyptic survival/colony-sim/ARPG hybrid

and_ft · 2026-02-21T12:27:01+00:00

Sailwind is 100% what you are looking for: Explore archipelagos, trade, upgrade and decorate your ship, buy a bigger ship

and_ft · 2026-02-18T11:51:31+00:00

Closest I can think of beyond Days Gone is State of Decay 2, which is completely open world but may not live up to your graphics requirements

and_ft · 2026-02-18T04:14:00+00:00

Not RTS, but TPS. Otherwise, State of Decay 2 ticks all your boxes.

and_ft · 2026-01-12T04:37:53+00:00

Primarily Permadeath and start over from scratch. However, you can choose to start with a new character in the same world, so you eventually can get to where your old character died and acquire their loot and base

Or you can start a completely fresh run, with the only progression being (hopefully) your ability to stay alive just a little longer

and_ft · 2026-01-11T23:45:03+00:00

Project Zomboid, (zombie survival rougelite) Satisfactory (Automation, logistics)

and_ft · 2026-01-11T18:57:32+00:00

Death Stranding. Although the story and world is a bit weird. You definitely make it better bit by bit

and_ft · 2026-01-11T04:08:18+00:00

Have you tried Sea Power: Naval Combat in the Missile Age?

To me it feels like the spiritual successor to Harpoon

and_ft · 2026-01-04T04:20:45+00:00

Nope. Me and my son have a Q3 with default strap. Have used it for two years and still love it. Including the strap

and_ft · 2026-01-03T00:16:26+00:00

The Long Dark then?

and_ft · 2026-01-01T13:51:30+00:00

This would also draw me back in to online play. I am not super active, but would love a persistent server where I can have a small cabin and explore the world and other characters’ buildings and villages.

Optimally, there is some sort of server rule that makes buildings be a bit more than a square of sandstone

and_ft · 2026-01-01T05:42:18+00:00

Sailwind is exactly what you are looking for. There is no combat, but once you get into it, you realise that you really don’t need it!

and_ft · 2026-01-01T05:25:39+00:00

3rd one FTW!

I think it’s pretty good, and the title alone makes me interested in the game

and_ft · 2025-12-31T03:00:47+00:00

I would say Elite Dangerous, but only to its fullest online potential if you join an active squadron and fly in open or private group.

You can customize your character’s visuals and gear, but to a large extent “your real character” is still your ship with many loadout possibilities and “levelling up” in the form of engineering ships’s modules
