Game to Discuss?

This week, let's discuss Elite: Dangerous the latest (and greatest?) sequel to the progenitor of all vidya starshit: No Mans Sky, notably (@MAGAShill), as well as Starfield (I think, haven't played it), Starsector (probably the best successor), and probably in some sense, every single game where you fly a spaceship. I won't go into the whole gory history of Elite, though features in it have made it to most every other space game: shitty procedural generation, the trade of goods of varying and dubious legality, and the seemingly ubiquitous engines - shields - guns power distribution system.

Unfortunately, Elite: Dangerous is hardly what I'd call innovative. While it did have the incredibly large randomly generated universe in common with, and prior to, No Mans Sky, for much of its existence planets were nought but pretty orbs to glance at from the comfort of your spaceship, which admittedly cut down on dev costs. The latest expansion supposedly makes planets into places you can visit, but I haven't, and probably won't purchase it, as it's apparently pretty dogshit. The game also has cosmetics purchasable with real world currency for some bizarre reason, which is pretty offputting. Beyond this, the vast majority of the gameplay loop resembles a simplified take on European Truck Simulator. You mostly travel from station to station, with various cargos, the specifics of which don't matter much. This gets boring real fast, tbh.

Despite all these flaws, this game isn't irredeemable, simply because it has the most detailed model of what a spaceship might look like/function. The asthetics are on point, and it feels properly futuristic in a way that similar games fail at. It even has a :soyjakwow: diegetic interface, which does a lot towards making you feel immersed. Too bad the core gameplay's shit though. Leave your opinions/thoughts below, and vote in the pinned comment.

I will soon start Dragon Age 2. I expect it to be good and just as good as Origins and BioWare is definitely still has good as they were in 2008 :marseyaware:

Honestly I'll probably enjoy it because my expectations are low going in.

I'm also on an rpg kick right now so I'll try other games after. Between the following which would rDrama play first? Greedfall, Risen, or a Fire Emblem like game called Banner of the Maid?

Btw I also have my own idea for a Fire Emblem like game of my own. These ideas have been swimming around in my head for years but I've just now worked out the true meat and potatoes of how it would work. Course it remains to be seen if I can code my own ideas :marseybottom:

Write everything down. Progressing from "things in my head" to "shit I've written down" is very important.

I really :marseythinkorino2: enjoyed greedfall my only issue is that I didn't feel a need to replay it. If you're just wanting an rpg to run through it's 100% worth a play. Aesthetically cool as heck too.

!g*mers why aren't there :marseycheerup: more fantasy :marseyredmage: rpgs with elves and conquistadors and shit

The genre is really hard for small studios to tackle. It requires a bunch of hand crafted content so it's a big workload.

Dragon age 2 wasn't too bad. Iirc correctly it leaned way harder into action than rpg. Youll notice it immediately.

I've played Banner of the Maid since it combines my neurodivergent love of history, anime, and tactical RPGs into a single game. It's pretty good for it's pricetag I gotta say. It is surprisingly challenging, definitely not easy, and also you get some pretty huge butt battles. Not a ton of variety in classes but you really have to use them all and fight as a balanced unit or you're fricked. Also it is surprisingly long, it just goes on and on. Only real downsides are that it can get pretty grindy and the menus are butt. If you like Napoleonic-era warfare and everyone from that era reimagined in anime form, check it out.

Well you'll love this one then lol. If the DLC is not included with it when you buy, don't bother unless you really really really want a meme Chinese pirate unit to join up with you.
