Vintage Story, on a good server, lots of fun! Haven’t really been playing anything else lately.
Just cancelled my XBox Ultimate Game Pass…bunch of nonsense.
Literally just a rant on Zero Punctuation about “AC” games - Assassin’s Creed, Animal Crossing, Armored Core, I forget the list. (Also Asheron’s Call I guess)
Give Vintage Story a shot! Like you’ll go in with a MC mindset and slowly realize you’re in a whole new world. It’s dark and the wolves after after you and the 3 stacks of berries you collected have all rotted. Is that a bear? What does it mean “temporal storm approaching”?
(few weeks later you’ve mastered voxel by voxel claymaking, knapping, and maybe done gotten some smithing done if you’ve managed an avil. Winter is approaching, is your cellar stocked? Do you have warm clothes?)
(Been playing for years and still learning things, and the devs seem to outpace mojang in terms of adding features, you get modding built in, and the chiseling…by god the chiseling…)
I hate it when YT slowly boxes you into a corner with like the same couple of channels and a bit of nonsense for good measure. And then it starts recommending videos you’ve already watched for so reason. I mean how many millions of hours are uploaded everyday? Is there nothing else you can show me?
There are probably multiple indie game bubbles, like roguelike card game bubbles or Metroidvania 2d retro 16 bit graphics game bubbles.
The annoying one is Frostbite, especially on some story missions where you keep getting it while the characters blab on and on. Other than that i’ve either run thru a steam vent, broken my lags boosting wrong, or sometimes sandstorm lung damage.
Also read about the spacesuit thing just today. The planet thing at least would’ve made more sense to all the spacesuit bits. It’s pointless and a bit confusing now, I just ignore it and repair whatever damage I receive which the spacesuit article made it sound like that is intended. The little hazard UI thing is so bad, and why doesn’t the aid section use the same icons as the status section. Hate having to dig around to find the right treatment in my inventory (slowly just grabbing snake oil whenever i find it)
Ah well still enjoying it at around 100 hours played, but you can see where they’ve had to cut back on systems all over the place.
I’ll have to look into Proton, thanks!
Interesting but extreme idea! I guess I could have my own alias’ as well. I have used gmails + thing quite a bit. They just make it so darn convenient lol.
I have my own domain but have been doing my email thru gmail - when i go to check from my webmail the amount of spam is insane. Is there good alternatives that do decent anti-spam. (Been a long time since I checked)
“Boat…boooooat!”
“SoW Plz!”
“now that’s a scary number!” /em drags into box
That link just seemst to be a mastadon feed and I cna’t seem to get any info about the engine from there.
My google news feed is like all Starfield now - getting ridiculous and i’m expecting by tomorrow will be like “Should you make french toast and eat it while playing Starfield?”
I just know what she’s saying too “we you have a free moment i need to talk to you”
They do for some, I think it’s to avoid unwanted AI interactions if something happens inside the house.
Sniping pirates and leaving them sitting in odd poses is oddly sad. Sometimes they freeze in place sitting on a couch or whatever. Low G has some weird stuff going on when you kill someone too, although watching dead bodies slowly float down is a neat touch.
VIntage Story one of the coziest games around.
