Game to Discuss?
This week, let's discuss the Anno series. I had initially planned to limit the scope of this discussion to just Anno 1800, but as far as I can tell, there's barely anything to distinguish the various games from eachother, so instead, we'll be discussing all the Anno games. What is there to say about Anno? It's a fairly mature series, maybe the only AAA game which hasn't devolved into a FPS/Cinematic experience/Dodge spamming simulator. In it, you develop the economy of your corporation, by expanding out across the various archipelagos the particular game offers, and developing your workforce though access to new and exciting goods, which invariably require you to expand beyond the starting island/area. See the pinned comment below to vote on the series.

October 13: Factorio

Star Trucker seemed like a good idea. Back in the day I was a space trucker in EVE and so this sort of game should soothe my autism in a similar way. Unfortunately it was kind of lazily designed and not very fun. And the stylistic choice of literal trucks in space is stupid. You can have space hillbillies if you want without literal copypasting irl stuff, Starcraft have been doing it for years.
Somehow I missed this one when it got released. It's nice and atmospheric and reasonably fun so far. I like the radio chatter over the feeling of emptiness. I wish there were more Homeworld games.
Really pretty game with some horrible writing and voice acting. Couldn't make it past half an hour or so. I don't care if gritty noir story of a hardboiled detective has been done a million times before, it'd have been a cool game if they had just found competent writers and actors.
Walking simulator with some cool voice acting and nice and atmospheric and spooky. Unfortunately it has a bug that crashes the game as soon as you exit an area so I guess I'll never know how it ends.

Deserts of Kharak is a real good game but ever since they added Epic Online it has a crash problem, which is brutal in an RTS where the fight for every small area of map is hard fought.
Been meaning to play Space Trucker on Gamepass, the reviews were too lukewarm to want to pony up for it yet.

Homeworld's campaign was just too slow and the mechanics too shallow. Star craft 2 has it's faults but it is still good enough to ruin most rts games for me.
