  • Graveyard Keeper is a really good game (the DLCs vary in quality, but still worth playing imho). I liked the dark humor and err, questionable morality. The NPCs are terrible people and I loved it. It was quite refreshing after playing mostly wholesome games!

    I’m with you on the time investment. Getting started in it is brutal, with most of what you can sell being near worthless at first (and, if I remember well, prices drop when you sell too much of something? It’s been a while). It takes time and effort to get yourself established, which makes it very satisfying!

    (I also ended up drowning in stuff. Once you get the collection of resources going, it doesn’t stop.)


  • more like a Final Fantasy game with farming elements inside it

    To be honest, sitting here with 2500h logged on FFXIV and 250+ on every FF I played… It’s not a downside to me at all.

    Rune Factory 4 is on my list of things to buy. Your rec echoes what I heard from a friend who loves it as much as you do, and someone else on lemmy reminded me of it just last week. I’ll probably grab it during the next steam sale if the price drops. Any tips for a newbie?

    I’m so glad for the comeback of the company, it’s great when that happens!









  • Go for it! Time on Stardew Valley is time well spent!

    I find the farming sims that have a plotline are easier for me to stop, even if I get obsessed, because you finish the story, befriend everyone… And then there isn’t much left to do unless you just want to chill and collect things. At which point you can move to My Time At Portia or any of the hundreds of similar games and start the whole process all over a… I have issues, don’t I?





  • I am taking supplements, but I need to figure my shit out because I fuck up either on the B12 or iron, each time. My first “bad” B12 deficiency came with some nerve issues and I do not want a repeat of that, it doesn’t entirely go away.

    My goal is to entirely cut out meat, though. Right now, I don’t buy it for home food, but if I’m out with friends or coworkers, I’ll get whatever. It’s iterative, and as more alternatives become available in public places, I’ll get there.


  • I don’t feel like that’s a fair comparison. Meat consumption has a lot of issues, but the consumer, at the end of the production chain, does not eat his steak with the mindset of “how much more can I make an animal suffer for the lulz, and can we take pliers to it first?”. Mostly, they are apathetic or unaware. (Disclosure: I have reduced meat a lot myself but am not entirely out yet and I keep giving myself B12 deficiency.)

    I’d compare with much higher in the production chain, the people who devised and enforce inhumane practices.
