Starship troopers extermination is surprisingly fun. The game has a lot of enemy and weapon variety, the cooperative aspect gives the game a strong feeling of group cohesion, and the explosions are nice. Seriously, the game plays like a perfect combination of squad and factorio.

It’s kind of surprising knowing that the game’s launch flopped given how much it has going for it. I guess the cinematic of helldivers and the procedural planet types kind of made extermination obsolete.

I got good news and bad news, good news is this 15 year old cowboy shay Daniels game is coming to PC after so long in 29 October, bad news is, you're gonna "have" to pay 50 dollars for steam to play it. So contact your local piratebay smuggler, tell him fitgirl repacks has a new target.

I want to talk about an idea that’s been on my mind. A lot of people came into part 2 waiting for wish fulfillment. I don’t want to get into the debate over Joel’s, but from what I understand about the western gaming community and the last of us’ fan base, a lot of people were expecting another game dedicated to Joel and Ellie running around.

I’m glad that the developers took a strong stance away from this idea, but there’s another thought that’s been on my mind. The authors can recognize that pain is permanent.

For context, a lot of games, shows, and movies tend to feature tragedies, traumas, and other events that cause pain as reversible. Hell, physical regeneration from immediate injuries or even resurrection is commonplace throughout franchises like deadpool, warhammer, and other mainstream slop.

The last of us’ developers treat pain as permanent. Even if the forces that caused the suffering are removed, the effects and the legacy of the pain itself never go away or fully leave one’s life.

In part 3, Ellie isn’t going to come out any less broken than she did by the end of part two. If her ending is retconned, it’ll feel completely half assed. How the fuck do you even approach such an idea. So many people in her life are dead, so many hopes were crushed, and so much hasn’t changed. Even if her physical condition improves, what am I saying, it won’t.

The third game is going to be intense. I don’t think anyone is going to be ready for the loneliness in it.

Why is there none hoi4 mods that are set in the 90s and you have to try and save the soviet union. The 90s are completely untapped and it would cool to do shit with the IRA or the gulf war. As well the Yugoslav wars would also be fun.

I HATE MAP PAINTERS
I HATE GACHA MECHANICS
I HATE "UPGRADES" AND POWER FANTASY CENTRIC DESIGN
I JUST WANT SOME CO-OP ADVENTURE GAMES TO PLAY WITH FRIENDS

I'll even settle for more singleplayer puzzle games.​​​​​

Has Oneyplays fell off. Cause all the new videos are kinda mid to the old videos. The old ding dong and Julian videos are timeless while the new stuff is barely remember-able. They don't even have Zack. And i know he's busy with smiling friends but he's kinda of a big part of Oneyplays. Chris also hasn't made any new animations in a while. Also i know about Bolwbo and i heard it's cancelled but i might be wrong so yeah idk. But it just starting to feel alot more worse. Do you guys also feel like this?

Why has no one made a thread about this game, yet? Hello?? It's a Soviet city builder game. Has anyone here played this?

The Zerg, the tyranids, and well… the bugs from helldivers 2 (I can’t take how uncreative the naming was) are too strong in all their games. The biggest design flaw is the lack of armour all these creatures have. The second biggest flaw is the lack of regeneration.
There’s no way to justify how much ammunition is thrown at these creatures given how easily a single bullet can kill a bug. A single hit should canonically be able to immobilize a bug.

Factoring addressed this problem pretty well by well… giving nearly all the biters armour and healing properties. Even if the protection isn’t much, by giving the biters healing properties and plating, there’s at least some way to justify why killing these beings should be difficult. Even starship troopers got this right just by making the skin of the warrior arachnids super thick and keeping each bug completely covered in that protection.

The Helghast are the antagonists of the Killzone series. They are a race of mutated humans who were exiled to the planet Helghan, after a war with the ISA (Future Space NATO).
Although the creators used a mishmash of both Fascist and Soviet imagery for them, their ideology is never expanded beyond "militaristic authoritarianism". But many people always ended up sympathizing with them, and the official party is portrayed as a workers' party

I think the biggest problem with the game is scenery. The combat isn’t really immersive and neither are the NPC fights. I think that if the maps were even half as large as a normal arma map and that if the projectiles had semi or fully realistic physics, the game would have been much more immersive and much scarier. Instead, the forever winter almost feels like a glorification of what modern combat is like due to how much action and explosions it features.
