The 3D factor was something that shocked me when I tried rimworld after, but very soon understood why rimworld works on a single plane.
There are I think about 512 layers of height or more in DF.
May I suggest to anyone wanting to try the current version of DF to look into Masterwork, a ui that allows you to pick…

I feel like there is a level of artistic choices that adjust opinions on the look of this, not just raw power. Do I appreciate the stability for some of the tech at work here? Yes.
Can I count the number of variations of images used for that constant wind effect on one hand? Also yes; it’s also spotty and a bit hokey.
W…

My thoughts too, especially with the whole appearance of a blockade with the truck parked in the middle of the street. A guy just standing in the back cab already holding a pistol while the other guy has a shotgun? These fuckers couldn’t wait to get their murder on.

but his friend’s call him BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTT.......vvvvmmmMMBBT!.

Perfect lighting, shot for shot.

Big simulator fan here, and this looks pretty legit!
Read a steam review from an alleged train operator who also hobbies with the Train Simulator series and apparently this game handles some of the more serious aspects like wheel slip which is non-existent in the Train Sim series. While the trains are more loosely…

I was wondering when Sesame Street would step in.
Remember that heart wrenching episode when one of the adult human cast died and they did an episode explaining death to Big Bird?
And there are plenty more heavy episodes as well, Sesame Street is capable of hitting some serious topics for children when left to it’s own…

Took a break from iRacing after obliterating my safety rating in some bad crashes. But last night I got right back into it racing car classes I don’t usually touch. The recent broadcasted (on NBC and FOX, imagine that) replacement races including a mix of real world and esports racers lit a fire under me again.
It’s…

Yup, my secret lab Omega has been one of the best office investments, especially now that I am working from home. Had it for a year now, the foam is just as good as it was when I got it. I just recently started using the lumbar pillow because it my posture when working is sometimes very poor as I lean in a lot to…

Civ probably has a hitler mod, most likely...its pretty easy to find nazi mods since they generally use pepe the frog as the steam workshop thumbnail. The mods are expectantly cringey, and likely also poorly done. 

I really like this take because I get the same feeling from a lot of Nazi oriented games. Where it sort of forgets that you are viewing history in a perceived realistic manner, it never had to pander to it in as you put it “knee slapping” fun with your fellow nazis.
Can you just imagine if Civilization had Hitler as…

I like the look of this overall (semi-agree on headlights), the yellow seatbelts are really striking too. I doubt they keep that for the production version. Any little unique touches in those concepts seem to disappear from production models.

I agree fully with the smithing and Skyrim did come to mind. At no point do I think any of the weapons I make could possibly be more useful than what I have in any amount of time. It also currently feels like both an exploit and an economic flaw that I can get more money out of melting down weapons for their materials…

Things I learned just yesterday after playing since day after release:
- once a vassal and eligible for Influence points, turn in prisoners to a town or castle dungeon instead of selling them. This provides massive amounts of influence. Generally 1 per regular, i think about half per looter, captured generals something…

I actually could not finish the video because this painful experience is too familiar.

The BattleTech kickstarter for a more extended expansion set after their surprising success of 2018's (19's?) september boxed set was just at the peak of their manufacturing phase in china, which got slowed down quite a bit. It seems they made it just in time though, so deliveries are understandably delayed but I…

My steam friends list is flooded with a single game running: Mount & Blade: Bannerloard.
It took little thought for me to jump on board. Been anticipating it for quite some time and it really does fulfill that same feeling when I played the original as far back as 2008(?). There are a few bugs here and there but…

Glad to see this blow up so much and so fast.
These guys started with something very ambitious for it’s time, the graphics were pretty janky back then but the game had so much charm everybody could see right through the budget visuals; It did exactly what it needed.
This game may not look triple-A, but I think for the…

side note: I made Steak Neptune for lunch and it cost less than a subway footlong with the drink/chip combo to make. I even made my own damn hollandaise, not the powdered shit, the real stuff. I haven’t made anything like that in 11 years, ever since I stopped cooking for a living.
 

I stepped out to get a grocery run recently, I live right by a road that I regularly refer to as “a total shit-show”. I would normally stand on the corner waiting to cross while I walk to work and look at all the cars going both directions thinking “so many people going somewhere all the time, what if everybody was…
