    I’m curious what other people’s main gripe is (likely emulation fights?) For my own, it’s when they enacted an assault on Garry’s Mod assets. That domain never did anything to harm their brand and was a source for tons of fan content. Emulation has its murky arguments about capitalism, but going after GMod was just litigation and harm for its own sake.

    Monster Train 2 is pretty similar, I'd recommend playing the first game since it gets really cheap on sale. Play the first game without the DLC first (it can be toggled in the settings if you bought it). It changes the balance a lot and makes the game more difficult, so it's more intended for people that are already familiar with the game.

    It becomes effectively, from an emotional standpoint, like their child. It's the same with code. It involves more basic logic than art but it's still creative work imo. Hell, there's even artistic forms of coding.

    Embracer is also splitting into three separate companies to shed the tainted Embracer name, all still owned and run by Wingefors of course. Asmodee Group (for board games) and Coffee Stain Publishing (for indie games) are the only two with official names last I heard. The unnamed third is the big one and Embracer's direct successor, but I guess they're delaying naming it to minimize bad press associated with the name.

    They are the OG indie devs. I still play Atom Zombie Smasher once in 3-4 years (you can get the mods off the dev website).

    terraria added years ago the whole npc favored locations/friendship stuff that enables you to unlock the crystals for fast travel. and being able to get across the map that quickly is just too valuable to me.

    It's a lot of fun. It retains a bit from the other RPG titles but fixes a lot from it too, especially with the Assassin part of it. I really hope Ubisoft takes this and actually gives it's planned sequals some time instead of just going straight to releasing another game a year or two later.

    My biggest issue with survival games is usually the lack of a goal. If Jagex treats this game the same way as OSRS or RS3 concerning quests, this could very well be a really nice experience. It could also very well be a very generic survival clone that adds absolutely nothing new to the genre. It's also not the first time Jagex has fucked up games. It often seems like they have absolutely no idea what makes OSRS and RS3 as good as they are, and at least for OSRS, the dedication of the mods seem to be the only reason the game isn't dead. I suppose we'll have to wait and see which direction they take it.

    ADHD review: The best "beginner" MH game 75h on record finished all the main and side mission. The game is extremely convenient in its gameplay loop, auto ride your yoshi to the monster and kick its butt, doesn't matter what weapon you're using. Everything is good, yet you still get rewarded for exploitating elemental/status weaknesses. Very fun with friends. Performance gets better the longer you play. In long: This entry into the series has been the easiest and most fun, but the downside is with that convenience MH is starting to lose its identity as a hunting game. Its less (to none) about tracking a monster setting a trap and hunting it and more about hacking and slashing away until said monster stops moving. The Story - While the combat is pure hype and adrenaline the story telling is like a direct infusion of melatonin. Bogging the first 10~ hours of the game down. (Don't get me wrong this isn't a "after 10 hours the game gets good" kinda deal, the game is instantly good just the story is pesky.) The Performance - Luckily the first title update is planned to be released in 3 days bringing with it massive performance updates (namely the VRAM optimizations), and while this can of worms is way way waaaay to complicated to get into detail now, it's still very much rough around the edges dipping from 60~30 FPS but the game isn't "unplayable" per-say. Someone smarter then me can probably figure this out and explain it better, but as someone who uses a "unsupported" platform (Linux) and has only been doing pretty much plug and play without tinkering I still think that the game is worth playing for its asking price.
