Try Deep Rock Galactic. A fun space dwarf extraction shooter with a pretty decent vibe.

And it is on sale right now ;)

Runs on Linux… my arm hurts

The graphics aren't smeary... My arm fell off but it's still jorking it

That’s dedication

I felt this way with Baldur's Gate 3.

[–] standarduser@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 5 days ago

100% I first 🏴‍☠️my way through bg3, then was like “bruh I genuinely wanna get the achievements this is so good wtf” and ended up buyin*on steam, but even was still so over satisfied that I sprung for the deluxe upgrade

congratulations you found indie games

[–] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 28 points 5 days ago

Indie game it's where it's at. these are just the boring standards these days

4/5 are irrelevant to most games I play tbh. Factorio story is simply automate the extermination of the bugs.

Plenty of those TBH. Only a few dick companies add micro transactions, easy to avoid.

Knowing my luck it would turn out to be a PvP game.

[–] Dvixen@lemmy.world 10 points 5 days ago (1 children)

No Man's Sky and Satisfactory keep me coming back. Cozy and itch scratching without being harassed for the latest microtransaction.

That said, if a game does have microtransactions without jamming them at my eyeholes, and I'm not missing anything without them, also acceptable.

[–] CrabAndBroom@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 days ago

Satisfactory has me fully in it's grasp right now lol. Current project is a giant vacuum tube to take me back and forth to where the coal miners are, because the steel ingot supply has become erratic.

These days, probably Expedition 33, but there lots of others every year. Probably moreso than 15 years ago by raw numbers.

People over focus on AAA budget games, but there are several indie and AA budget games that are comparable or even surpass production quality of AAA games 15 years ago.

AAA budget these days should really be called like S-tier budget. In 2010 and earlier, the top end of budgets were like $50-100 million ($70-140 million after inflation) including marketing. Budgets started ballooning after that and hese days, top end budgets are more like $500-700 million)

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 7 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Expedition 33 is great. Checks all the boxes from the meme, plus has a banger of a sound track!

Could be anything from Stardew Valley to Baldur's Gate 3.

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 10 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Loads of them if you stay away from multiplayer slop.

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 8 points 5 days ago

Exactly. Micro transactions are rare to nill in single player and indie games. 98% of AAA can suck it.

I just started playing wildmender from my backlog. Probably from a humble bumble.

Totally up my alley. Got my wife a copy and now we're playing it together.

Sandbox survival with a storyline and quests

This is me after modding out all the elements of Cyberpunk I hate.

Its weird, but Cyberpunk took such a while to grow on me because the gameplay near the start is super unfun because of how weak your starting weapons are and how spongy the enemies are.

Like if you play on the easier settings, the AI are just brain dead stupid, but at very hard, the enemies at first take forever to kill and its just a boring game of shooting, hiding behind cover and healing, waiting for your heals to recharge behind cover, and repeat.

The game basically only starts to truly be fun in my opinion in Act 2, which is kinda the majority of the game without any spoilers.

spoilerI will never meet Hanako at Embers

Atomfall was a bit of fun though. Clearly not a game of the year candidate but fun, no MTXs and the best difficulty settings I've ever seen. You get so many options to remove or add things that you find fun or don't find fun.

Like, I realized I wanted to collect all of the [thing I don't want to say for spoilers sake] so running out of breathe while running just became annoying because it was never a combat constraint in the first place, so it only served as a minor realism boost. Turned that off pretty quickly.

Add "completely free" to the list and you've got Enderal.

[–] PieMePlenty@lemmy.world 7 points 5 days ago (1 children)

First thing that comes to mind, last game I played: Hades 2.

Basically, any indi game.

[–] Darkard@lemmy.world 8 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Warhammer 40k: Rogue Trader for me.

[–] HK65@sopuli.xyz 7 points 5 days ago

I got sucked into the two Pathfinder games they made, I want to wait out Rogue Trader's last DLC before playing it
