My main iron and stone deposits were too far from each other to be practical so I had to set up a whole new concrete plant a ways away. Then a train line to bring the concrete in. Then I had to take care of some biters in the vicinity to make room for the concrete plant. And there went my evening.

4 is a fan favorite but has a grid instead of hexes, so it plays a bit different. I’m also partial to 3 since that’s where I started. Each era has its own lovable jank.

Bear in mind that districts weren’t a thing until 6, so that pretty radically changes how you plan and build cities.

Factorio. Please send help, I can’t stop.

People ain’t got no money.

Is an atronach intelligent? If it’s not then consent doesn’t apply.

Have you played survival mode? It’s a little annoying at first, but now that I’ve gotten into it it feels so natural and I almost can’t play on normal.

Also, Red Dead Redemption 2.

I think I tried Platinum for a bit but yeah it was too cumbersome to play on my phone.

Sounds good, I’ll continue to emulate Soul Silver and Emerald on my phone 😁

As someone who hasn’t played a pokemon game since Gen 3, what are they like these days? Have they totally jumped the shark?

Also announced that Clint and Sandy will be marriage candidates in 1.7

Haunted Chocolatier is coming. Might be a little while but I’m sure it’ll be worth the wait.

With HC on the way and with SDV continuing to get updates, I doubt we’ll see a SDV2. Would make more sense just to keep adding content. Eric has said he still has lots of ideas for the game and plans to add more updates in the future.

Also, if you’re playing on desktop, look into Stardew Valley Expanded. Tons of new stuff: content, characters, maps, you name it!

I’ve bought this game 3 times and I’ll buy it again for another platform if I get one.

After years of playing and hundreds of hours across various farms, I’m finally going for perfection! I was trying to hit it by Grandpa’s Evaluation at the start of year 3 but I don’t think that’s gonna happen haha.

However, that takes away my time constraint, and as much as I love planning crunching and grinding in SDV it’s nice to kick back and go at a relaxed pace.

I like how this article does not talk about the anti consumer practices engaged in by Nintendo, that might push some customers away from their consoles.

The average consumer does not care about this. The biggest reasons for people to not buy a Switch 2 are 1) people don’t have money and 2) lack of major first-party games. I waited months until I found a MKW bundle for $450 at a black Friday sale.

Once we get the next 3D Mario or Zelda, you can bet they will sell a lot of consoles.

It was a little annoying at first, but now it feels very natural. Night is cold and dangerous and you get tired, so you sleep. You get hungry and food is found everywhere, so you eat. Wear warm clothes and don’t spend too much time in the cold without protection.

It kinda makes me realize that I’ve been looking for this exact thing in open world games, now I’m trying to think up some rulesets for BOTW/TOTK and RDR2 to make them similar. Maybe a survival mod exists for Red Dead?

Skyrim

Still relatively new to the game (started playing it in the last couple of years) and I’m trying my first run on survival mode, currently loving it!
