    Cortex Command

    It most certainly does, at least on the surface.

    Cortex Command

    I played an absurd amount of modded Cortex Command back in the day, and eventually I grew too frustrated and fell out of love with it due to the dev's negative attitude and lack of commitment and passion. Over a decade later, Noita came into existence and offered that special something which...

    The Game Awards is a scam

    You're just now questioning the legitimacy of TGA?

    Good Doom/Heretic/Hexen WADs

    When the video starts to reveal what's so special about this wad you may want to stop watching to save yourself from spoilers and then go play it yourself. Good stuff.

    Rain World: The Most Complex Ecosystem in any Game

    You can play the game just fine without gitting gud, but if you really want it then there's plenty of gud to git.

    Rain World: The Most Complex Ecosystem in any Game

    The movement tricks look like physics exploits because the movement is procedural physics based. For example: Rolling builds momentum that you can put towards jumping higher and farther, and there are several different ways to set up rolls. There are many ways to build momentum and many ways to...

    Rain World: The Most Complex Ecosystem in any Game

    Slugcat parkour simulator. The movement system in this game is profoundly deep and complex. It will feel like you have no speed or mobility until you begin to grasp how to control your character. Here's a video showcasing character movement and combat by someone who is moderately skilled at the...

    [Poll] Best immersive sim

    Where is My Summer Car? It is arguably the best "immersive sim" of all time. It just replaces dungeon crawling, combat and contrived quests with survival, npc & environment interaction, income dependence, car maintenance and getting blackout drunk.

    From Software Elden Ring - From Software's new game with writing by GRRM

    Evidently he still hasn't learned to use the doorknob instead of opening doors with his face. He's been playing ER again with a bow only build and no UI, and he hates it. I used to wonder if he was insane or just retarded.. until I heard him talk about politics. Now I am certain that he is insane.

    From Software Elden Ring - From Software's new game with writing by GRRM

    Neato. They introduced separate damage scaling for pvp. This potentially solves the issue of balancing the entire game around pvp at the expense of pve. I wish they had thought of this three games ago... Oh wait, I still don't want to play Elden Ring.

    Noita - magical action roguelike where every pixel is physically simulated

    I only ever savescummed during one game when I was studying fungal shift behavior, and I've never used any mods. As long as you resist greed and continue to learn from your experiences the game only becomes more accessible and exploitable. This might be the most replayable game ever; I've killed...

    Dying Light 2 Stay Human - zombie survival with choice & consequence

    I've completed both the main campaign and The Following DLC once, so I have seen one of the three DLC endings. I've also started a new game several times just to play around with gameplay mechanics and progression. Also I found and completed all the secret content and all or most of the easter...

    Dying Light 2 Stay Human - zombie survival with choice & consequence

    Welp, this franchise has certainly jumped the shark. Dying Light 1 was outstanding in the sense that it was a AAA game that didn't take the disappointing and predictable AAA approach. Quality of gameplay obviously took priority over all the other aspects of the game; movement/combat and...
