Topic	What game(s) should I play next?
Sahuagin 10/07/21 12:02:38 AM #14:	Lokarin posted... I don't know of Morrowind is on steam.. it probably is (yup, it is). but I don't already have it... if you ever play it, recommended to use OpenMW (kind of like a source port except written from scratch) (you'll still need a version to have the media files) Lokarin posted... Hotline Miami 2, I'm not a huge fan of the games... did secret ending the first one. I know the plot of the second game from youtube and it's definitely one of those bitter endings that really pays off I wasn't sure at first, but after playing both, HM2 is a lot better than 1. the gameplay is way more solid and less RNG, though the difficulty is a lot higher. the levels and story are a lot less repetitive as well. Lokarin posted... Creeper World is great, I should finish 3 and 4 is on my wishlist if you've played 1-3 then I'm happy Lokarin posted... Mechanicus? I do have Inquisitor and am waiting for the next season to start over Mechanicus is like X-Com apparently, not that I've played that. (so, squad-based TBS). it's VERY hard on default settings. I have not played it very far though. the main reason I recommend it is extremely high production quality and deep gameplay, but I maybe haven't actually played far enough to properly judge it. also it has one of the best intros ever: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gIMZ0WyY88 Lokarin posted... Age of Wonders I don't think I ever played anything from the series... but is IS a Paradox game so I probably "should" like it but won't. IDK. I tried EU and Crusader Kings but they just aren't my thing. Still love Mount & Blade........ so I should probably check out Bannerlord if it's not too glitchy Age of Wonders is different than most Paradox games (it's not really a paradox game they just bought it). EU is "grand strategy" (not 100% sure what that means). Age of Wonders is more like a turn-based "skirmish" game, sort of, if that makes sense. like Warcraft 3 or Sins of a Solar empire, but turn-based. (so more like Lords of Magic or Heroes of Might and Magic.) they're very hard on normal difficulty (I find). but also, great games. I would actually recommend starting at AoW 1, which is probably the best, though it can be hard to get into. AoW PlanetSide reboots the series (though I haven't beat it yet, so for all I know they're connected in some way but not as far as I know) as Sci-Fi. It makes the campaign maps randomized, which is good and bad. It uses the Amplitude Studios idea (found in Endless Legend and now Humankind (though for all I know it came from elsewhere)) of having regions/zones on a 4x style map, with a 1-city per region limit rather than letting you build cities anywhere. --- *The truth basks in scrutiny.* https://imgur.com/GMouTGs http://projecteuler.net/profile/Sahuagin.png <cite>Sahuagin posted [p:958783989] in What game(...
