“Hey there, Jeff” (0.0) that bit had me stuck for a month until I decided to push through it!

No problem! :) If you do opt to try making something yourself I’m sure the folks here at Lemmy would be more than happy to check it out and give you some feedback!

Maybe it’s time you made your own project (if you’re up to it) :) time to serve that quality bisque in a bowl deserving of it lol besides, things will never change if we stay the route with Jack Welch-esque CEOs running the show; we need more indie devs, more small businesses, people who want to make something great because they’re passionate, or even just folks who want a sustainable future without strangling ourselves with the noose of “line must go up” mentality.

But also that’s a metric ton of work, and owning a project like that is certainly a risk to take!

Great game :)

Rightfully worried IMO

There are dozens of us! 😂

I mean, Devilman Crybaby is without a doubt. Not exactly sure if that’s what you’re looking for though.

And don’t forget you can play the whole thing in VR with the VHVR mod! I’ve played 330+ hours over 3 runs with my friends in VR, beating the Queen while panicking into repeated freefalls into pit (thank you feather cloak) was an insane experience (Yag too TBF; out of our 3 person group everybody died at least once, and several times the lone survivor was stuck doing laps with hordes of Fulings and a few berserkers and shamans in the parade until the others sprinted back from their beds.) Blessings to corpse run lmao

Really enjoying Stranded: Alien Dawn! 3D Rimworld in a nutshell lol that or Songs of Syx!

On this note The Battle of Polytopia is an extremely fast-paced turn-based strategy game, like a Civ-lite you can finish entirely in 30 turns or less instead of 200-500 :)

Edit: Recommending Worldbox too lol it’s a fun god-game you can leave and come back to whenever, just save your world’s progress in the meantime.

Not quite what you’re looking for, but I think you might enjoy Worldbox for a nice and relaxed, long-term game! It’s a fun god game with the twist that the inhabitants of your worlds are alive and doing their own thing, be that farming, building cities and kingdoms, forming empires, or making alliances and waging wars all without your input (although you can meddle in the affairs of the world as much as you wish). It’s free (with a single $7 premium purchase if you love the game and want to support the dev).

Makes it a whole new experience! There’s mods adding horses, human NPCs that can mine, chop wood, or fight for you, new enemies to spruce up your world, a complete rebalance for the boss fight difficulties, and of course Valheim RAFT which allows you to make a sailing base Ark or Raft style! So say so long to running between 3-4 different bases to farm ingredients or popping onto new islands just to immediately throw down a bed or portal, now you can just take a floating stronghold with you!

Valheim! A million and one mods to revitalize the game experience, and more than anything else the Valheim VR mod makes it an entirely new game! I’ve got 360 hours sunk into it with my 2 friends.
