If you liked Frostpunk, have a look at Ixion.
You’re on a space station, basically the same thing. Except it’s one large campaign, not like Frostpunk’s limited format. Honestly I think Frostpunk is the superior game, but Ixion is pretty good.
Amazing the time when arcades were soooo much better than home consoles.
Like, there was a time when a home console was pretty good at simulating the arcades, but that was about it.
Also, I find that basically every search result that isn’t reddit is sponsored content.
Search something real specific like “Best aftermarket injector coils for a 2009 Toyota Corolla” and you’re going to get 100% advertisements and listicles for search results, likely written by somebody who doesn’t know shit about cars.
Append “reddit” to that search, and you’ll be led to a post from a car mechanic giving their opinion on the matter. And, well, I do trust a random stranger on the internet more than I do an advertisement.
I don’t know what people see in that game. Friends talked me into buying it, and it just feels like it’s punishing you for playing it.
First boss annihilates you. Okay, that was an intentional thing. First thing you encounter after that annihilates you. Okay, that’s showing that some enemies aren’t meant to be fought. There are some soldiers, they aren’t too bad, then after you get past them there’s a boss that annihilates you. Well let’s go exploring, found myself in a swamp where just being there kills you.
Okay, that isn’t fun.
Go this way you’re dead, go that way you’re dead, try something new you’re dead, explore you’re dead.
I had a similar experience with one of the more recent NBA games.
Like, shooting the ball was a whole process. First you initiate a gathering action or decide what kind of plant or pick you’re going to make, there’s a button for whether you jump or not, what kind of jump (fade away, in place, diving towards) and then timing for shot accuracy. God help you if you’re going for a dunk.
Damn it all, what ever happened to one button for pass and the other for shoot!
I’m out here doing advanced Street Fighter combos just to throw a damn ball. It’s easy as doing a tatsumaki super canceled into a neutral aerial shakunetsu hadoken. And that’s just one thing, every damn mechanic in the game felt like this.
