Look into a telescope.

I've got big hopes for Infinity, but I'm gonna remain cautious as to whether or not it ever gets finished.

Eve is a pretty good example.


Personally, I want a new Noctis. Something without a bunch of frills. Just wanna bop around in the galaxy exploring and cataloging alien planets.

The only one of those I've heard about is Darkspace, and that's a strategy game. :/

Just looking up the first on your list... The Wiki suggests the learning curve is particularly steep; the game is inaccessible. Not exactly learning from modern design.

Keep it simple and cheap. One of the best space games I'd ever played was from the same guys who made Survival Crisis Z. It involved bopping around the galaxy in flying cel-shaded cars and blowing **** up.

Where?

I mean I know there are a few. Mostly badly designed games that haven't learned anything from the past decade or two. But I haven't seen any recent attempts that are any good.

Why does the lame ass Legion pronounce Caesar, Kay-zar...?

The market fro space sims is probably just the same. Which is a bad thing, as the market for everything else is much bigger than it used to be. Coupled with games taking forever to develop, means that not many are released, particurally "mainstream".

I think this is right. If the indie developers started making space sims, maybe with a modern touch, they could potentially become pretty successful, relatively speaking. Everyone expects the big bucks in this business, and space sims for the most part just don't have that sort of appeal.

So how is the writing? Any better than Fallout 3? I expect so, considering it wasn't developed by Bethesda.

Though actually playing DnD is akin to rocket science. At the very least you need three semesters of calculus. There are better systems out there.

Fire. Don't forget starting fires.

Nah, in all seriousness, Far Cry 2, I find, is great fun when you just want to shoot things in a creative way in an FPS. A good engine, good graphics, and a lot of missing features that imply lack of common sense in the devs, but hey, I got it for 15£ brand new !

It's not so amusing when you spent 50.

Oh yeah. I played this a long time ago. Really fun game. Not on the same level as Minecraft, but still fun.

Aren't there pdf versions of the rulebooks for sale? I also seem to recall seeing free quick-start rules for Mouse Guard somewhere.

Another system that may be of interest for a freeform, narrativist style of play is FATE. I quite like their take on The Dresden Files.

YES.

I also have the Dresden Files RPG. It's looks really amazing. The design emphasizes good storytelling, and I love it. I don't know anyone who plays it, though.

If anyone is interested in an online tabletop or PBP game of Dresden Files, I'm in! I don't have that much tabletop experience, though.

I don't think that's quite the same thing. Charging for the rest of a game compared to charging for a game that isn't actually done yet.

Yeah the first episode of Doom was released as shareware. Or the first 3 missions I don't remember now.

Yeah, I'm specifically talking about charging for an alpha or beta product to fund its completion.

I don't think it's been around in video games that long, has it?

They were doing it with shareware back in the eighties.

That's fascinating.

Was it local? How did they get the word out?

I don't think it's been around in video games that long, has it?

I mean, indie games have really taken off in a way they couldn't before broadband internet became so popular. This just isn't something that would have been feasible for most if not all of the nineties.

I wouldn't put $20 on Mass Effect. I think I got it for like five. Wait for a deal.

Ljas 说:

That was quite good. It held my attention, until it reminded me of the Funniest Joke in the World sketch. I expected something more serious.

Makes me think of the Joker, which is no laughing matter. 

Yeah I just started playing a couple days ago. Wow.

Archonsod 说:

Hasn't it been superceded by Evochron?

Just checked it out and I got to say, it doesn't look to be on the same level of awesome.

Obviously The Doctor having a bit of fun.
