    The Tragedy of Homeworld

    Regarding Ground Control, in a sense it did have "special abilities" in form of offensive special weapons and defensive/support special equipment, which were actually very powerful, but also had very limited number of uses with no replenishment, just like the units themselves. When played...

    The Tragedy of Homeworld

    There is plenty of materials spread out in galaxy for a "sufficiently advanced" civilization to collect. It does get a little weird though when you have a Death Star sized thing built by a society like the Empire in Star Wars, which still operates on the level where using Mk.1 humans for most...

    Total War: Star Wars?

    Finally everyone will be able live out their dream of using droid army to utterly crush the filthy Gungans! But seriously, squeezing Star Wars into Total War format doesn't sound like the easiest task. They would obviously want to milk the most recognizable stuff like stormtroopers and AT-AT...

    PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: 2FA NOW MANDATORY - YOU DON'T NEED A PHONE NUMBER FFS

    Instead of troubling people with this 2FA shit in a gaming forum, maybe you could start a bit smaller and simply upgrade your password rules from 1994 times when 4 lower-case letters alone was considered good enough? Could even go a step further and force users to change their pw in every half a...

    Vapourware Scam Citizen - Only people with too much money can become StarCitizens! WOULD YOU LIKE TO KNOW MORE?

    Only economic model they need is the one used for selling spaceship JPGs to the faithful, and that model is practically perfect. Those people go nuts for things like getting LTI (lifetime insurance) for their ships, even though nobody has any clue if it will provide any substantial benefits when...

    Pathfinder Pathfinder: Kingmaker - Enhanced Plus Edition - now with turn-based combat

    That's okay in individual fights, you get trashed and can immediately reload to start figuring out what you need to change. With kingdom management it may be long time later when you realize that you prioritized wrong things. I actually just ran into this yesterday. When Valerie blurted out her...

    Vapourware Scam Citizen - Only people with too much money can become StarCitizens! WOULD YOU LIKE TO KNOW MORE?

    I am sure this little brouhaha will end soon, as the cult fanbase see the error in their ways, and in penance buy lots of additional JPGs. It is not their place to question how and when the Saint Roberts, peace be upon him, delivers the holy BDSSE.

    Why are so many Codexers like this?

    Almost all the games I played as a kid were pirated, but nowadays if a game isn't worth my money, then it is also not worth my time.

    The Settlers: New Allies - revival from Ubisoft

    No surprises, I was immediately suspicious when I didn't spot any hobbit looking dudes carrying ridiculously oversized stone blocks on their shoulders.

    WARNO from Eugen Systems

    Interesting, but looking pretty barebones at the moment.

    Eternity Pillars of Eternity + The White March Expansion Thread

    It is especially amusing because shortly before you get the whole "gods are FAAAAKE!" reveal you have to jump into some super deep hole, and you need to have sucked up to one of those "fake" gods to survive it or you will get pancaked.

    Eternity Pillars of Eternity + The White March Expansion Thread

    They look really out of place in some places though. Like you reach that first miserable village with unwashed peasants and gallows tree, and suddenly see backer NPC godlikes standing around in shiny armor and looking super important.

    Decline Critical role ruined PnP

    I don't remember half-orcs having anything that qualifies as "prominent presence" beyond being one of the origin theories for Saruman's Uruk-hai. As for half-elves, all human-elf pairings were important, but there were only three of those, so actual number of half-elves was miniscule.

    Indie Vampire Syndicate: Gangs of MoonFall - Hybrid FPP/Overhead Turn-based Cyberpunk Vampire RPG

    All this ranting about plagiarizing vampires and whatnot, while the real issue is clearly the whole Moon fall thing:
