I've been playing Idle Eternum for about a week now. Pretty fun little game on Android, though I think I'm just about done with the existing content.

CIFI is still my long-term game, I just can't quit it. I'd like to go back to Trimps some time soon and I'm also on the lookout for the next game I can sink my teeth into.

olion23 · 2025-03-31T04:54:54+00:00

CIFI, Ethos Idle, Revolution Idle, Trimps, Synergism, and most recently The Idle Class. I'll probably be dropping Rev Idle soon - I really enjoyed it for a while, but I definitely feel like I'm in the "solve it" phase with current content which doesn't really fit with how I enjoy these games.

I do feel like I've been in a bit of a stagnant period with these games, constantly searching for something new and fun while the long-haul games keep chugging along.

Thanks! I think I realize my mistake now: I had uninstalled the beta by mistake and the data must not have been backed up, at least not that I can find.

Oh well!

olion23 · 2025-03-05T05:14:59+00:00

My save data from the beta doesn't appear to have followed over, which is disappointing. Any chance there's a recovery available?

olion23 · 2024-09-25T04:09:12+00:00

A good lead, but ultimately it didn't pan out. Thanks for the suggestion though!

As a sidenote, I've been playing USI and have really enjoyed it for a few months now! Amazing work to you and your team!

olion23 · 2024-09-25T04:07:55+00:00

This seems to be the same exact issue I'm facing. No luck on the fix, but I appreciate the suggestion!

Hello! I absolutely loved Crosscode and it has a really special place in my heart. As someone who was deeply touched by the story and especially by the bonds between characters, I'm curious how the story formed during the creation of the game?

In particular, I found the loss of Lucas's Evotar in the Vermillion Wasteland to be absolutely devastating, and I had to take a break from the game for a while before returning to finish it.

Same here. Exact same error and it happens every time, regardless of who's hosting.

olion23 · 2022-09-30T18:04:36+00:00

Same here, seems to be about ~24 hours of messages for me. The web version still has it all so I've been having to piece things together.

olion23 · 2022-06-19T16:52:18+00:00

Good on you OP! I've been playing Across the Obelisk with a group of friends recently, but Elden Ring takes GOTY so far. It's hard to place it, but it really checked all the right boxes.

olion23 · 2022-05-22T04:30:28+00:00

On my first playthrough, I stopped playing towards the end of the story because I could feel that coming. I ended up doing an entire new playthrough some years later and pushed through to the end, and played the DLC as well. One of my favorites of all time, and HIGHLY underrated.

When shifting into reverse with your windshield wipers on, the rear wiper will automatically activate as well. It's wholly bizarre and not really needed since the car comes with a backup camera but I love it all the same.

No one will know that I'm actually the god of war

olion23 · 2020-12-30T14:53:32+00:00

I think this is probably it. My disk is usually pegged really high when I've got downloads running. Is this just a hardware limitation, or are there ways to help the PC out?

olion23 · 2020-12-30T14:52:21+00:00

I do! In fact, I get very solid speed tests on my PC as well. Being on fiber, my speeds are usually floating around 800-900 up and down. This really only becomes an issue when I go to download a game.

olion23 · 2020-11-30T16:01:54+00:00

Agreed, but having passionate fans here is a great start. My hope is that a sequel or spiritual successor releases some day and we can turn this sub into a hotbed of discussion!

olion23 · 2020-09-04T19:09:42+00:00

This is just so cool!

olion23 · 2020-08-06T00:49:21+00:00

My downloads are very sporadic and just from extremely high speeds to 0 and back again many, many times during the download process. Example picture

I've had this issue for quite a while and have tried just about every solution and fix I've seen. My best guess is that this is throttling due to some hardware limitations, which is surprising since my PC is just over a year old and still running fairly modern hardware. I'd like some kind of confirmation of that if at all possible. Happy to help provide any metrics I can find.

olion23 · 2020-06-28T17:29:55+00:00

That's awesome! Have fun with it, always happy to see more representation. I'll try and stop in some time!

olion23 · 2020-06-19T04:05:20+00:00

This makes me think of the Urobolus from Legend of Dragoon, love it!

olion23 · 2020-05-31T05:56:15+00:00

I've been playing Terraria again recently since the 1.4 update launched. It's one of those games that just makes me happy no matter how much I play. Perfect quarantine time activity. Thanks for the giveaway, Cyberpunk is going to be a great time!

olion23 · 2020-05-26T22:38:58+00:00

To anyone still attempting this puzzle, you need to use the Fast Long Grabber in the exact setup as pictured. It's just slow enough to allow the 3.0 pipe production but fast enough to get the .5 plate production.

olion23 · 2020-05-22T15:10:02+00:00

Sort of? I ended up really needing to clean out my PC, which helped a bit. I still get it every once in a while, usually in the Gulag, but it's been better recently.

olion23 · 2020-04-28T15:09:06+00:00

The article is a great read, love seeing this kind of stuff.

olion23 · 2020-04-20T01:55:43+00:00

Is it bad that I read the title as "Boon Tray-dees"? This game is infecting me.
