It sounds like the reason for lack of cross play is political in nature (Sony doesn’t want the PS4 to play nicely with other systems), not because of technological restrictions.

Microprose legitimately had some of the best manuals. I don’t know how many times I read through the Master of Orion II manual. The Big List (their name for the technology tree) and their descriptions were like a treasure trove of wonder for a burgeoning sci-fi nerd.

I owe so much to abandonware sites like HotU. As a teenager, I spent countless hours learning how to troubleshoot and tweak my computer to get those old games running on newer operating systems (or even on older OSs). Really helped to kindle that “future in IT” fire. Plus, they were so small, it didn’t take hours to

According to their backer newsletter from this morning, since they left Early Access a couple days ago, they’ve had more sales than they had the entire time they were in Early Access. They’re super happy with the results and it wouldn’t surprise me if this were, in some way, their way of giving back for sales

Oh, they are good at putting a little wordplay into their titles, aren’t they?

Now that’s a face that says “Wir sind nicht amüsiert.”

To this day, whenever I see the protagonist of Lone Survivor, I don’t see the surgical mask. I see a big, cheese-eating grin and I think “he can’t be having that bad a time, look at how happy he is!”

You are very good at this, you know?

Cool, but do they distinguish between witches and sexy witches?

Ditto, and I can’t wait. Not being one to follow rules, though, I’ll probably try and turn it into more of a sci-fi and less of a sci-fantasy campaign.
