Vehicle combat games. Which I guess is more like a genre than a mechanic.

Right now it’s basically Mariokart or nothing.

Grip came out in 2018, but the physics were really unforgiving (clipping a corner could cost you like 10 seconds as you tumble) and there weren’t enough players online.
Which is a real shame because it’s gorgeous, fast paced, with effective power ups, and amazing tracks. And a hell of a sound track.

The thing new games don’t have that I miss from old games is friends to play the game with 😭

In an open world game that isn’t about racing*

Games like wreckfest have pretty great damage modeling. BeamNG too.

I really want to see a god game with gestures, like black&white, make the jump to VR

Yeah, I know, it doesn’t actually work, because capitalism is a joke. But you get the idea, I think

I used to torrent frequently, but rarely software.

Although I’m going to start torrenting music and video again on principle.

I guess they’ve never heard of the Streisand effect in China.

I figured it was a micro transaction game. This shit should be covered under right-to-repair.

you’re only allowed to have fun if we control it
