Lil shout-out to pokerogue at this: it is a gen 4 style (i think) fan project that has all the current mons minus the newer mega evolutions in pixel art with up to 3 different shiny variants per mon even. The gameplay loop is very simple with battle/event -> pick reward -> repeat but it’s still very fun
There’s a lot of them. Just not at ubislop
I read it like that. In Germany we say PnP (pen and paper) instead of ttrpg, which makes it easy to assume that’s the English term, as it’s English words in German
I feel especially Roguelites are bad for limited playtime because they are often designed around having to do the same-ish thing multiple times to get enough meta progression to be able to finish the game. Like the game has content for 2 hours but stretches it to 15 because you need meta progression.
Having played the demo I had some seemingly random drops to 30fps in places that didn’t look demanding so i hope i can fiddle some settings. For reference i have an AMD 7800XT gpu and a 7800X3D cpu. You could try the demo yourself to see how it runs
you gotta spiral out, then you get no gaps
I really enjoyed We Were Here with a good friend. It’s a coop escape room like puzzle game where you’ll play in different rooms but your puzzles interact with the other room and you’ll have to communicate and work the two rooms together to solve it
The important part here is that it’s an extra stat that everyone has. It’s not like DnD or Pathfinder where you know magic and your modifier comes from one of your normal stats and everyone else does not know magic. Magic Talent is an extra that every class has and every class can eventually make use of if they live long enough. It’s also the implication that you don’t have a magic on/off switch that is rolled at birth. Everyone has that possibility but has to go through training to use it.
I like Midgard, the first German fantasy ttrpg, in that regard. Every character has magic talent as a stat like dexterity, strength or int. When starting out, only some classes have already learned to use that inherent ability everyone has but there’s rules for learning magic for non magic classes. Granted this cost a helluva lot of exp to do but it is possible and takes a bit away from that special people factor
So your staple games seem to be focused on gameplay (or you’re at the part where the story is done) while the games you think you want to play are story heavy with gameplay locked behind looking at cutscenes and listening intently to dialogue. If the first actual playing happens after only 30 minutes, you might not have the energy to sit through that. Maybe look into indie games that get quickly to the gameplay. You’ll probably find that it’s not that hard to play new games if they’re built for playing instead of mass appeal and story
Considering how massive the free update is my guess is they’ve been holding a lot of stuff back but yeah I don’t think there’s been a lot of updates these past months
I’ve been playing the game just fine on Linux for about 50 hours. Idk if a native build would be that useful
You can get them through playing but you can’t open them unless you buy a key for real money. Each key only opens one box so you basically have to pay for the random chance item
