What about Stellaris or X4? I'd really love to get into a space game. never really tried before, I tried Albion Prelude once but couldn't figure out the controls and rage quit...

Rebel Galaxy is very accessible, not a space sim. all you need is an Xbox 360 controller of any kind.

@ 1080p & still yielding >70fps while GPU usage sits around 70% range.

If that's all you are getting and your GPU is sitting around 70% you are CPU bottlenecked. Might be time to give thought to a CPU upgrade, or at least OC the 7600k you've got.

Everspace is a Roguelike game like FTL. Rebel Galaxy is like Freelancer with Factions, Standings, Plot, Missions, etc.

 

[Ahhzz]

DO NOT PLAY the re-release. Its utter crap

I did some digging into the re-release, saw the extra classes, and thought "Aw, can't be that bad, right?". Then I watched a gameplay vid, and was like "WTH? What happened to the storyline? Ok, this is useless, I'll stick with revival, I think...."

Deep Rock Galactic.

get it. play it.

Gameplay looks a big buggy, but for a Co-op game, looks fun as hell lol

Those are very subtle distinctions, but I do see your point.

Hanbitsoft made a lazy Korea MMO sauce and spilled a bit over the game, then released it half broken.

Stellaris is a 4X, X4 is more of a space flight sim with loads of really tacky functionality attached to it.

Can heartily recommend Stellaris. You can customize your perfect space theatre with all custom factions and super varied playstyles for empire building and expansion. Combat is a bit samey, as in, create death stacks and defend your borders, but you cán make custom ships as well. It plays a bit Civilization-like now since 2.0, because borders really mean something and you can't just jump everywhere. I like the game a lot more since 2.0, though I played prior to it so much it got a bit old

@lexluthermiester I can OC my processor unless I go for a 240mm rad. Coz I doubt a 120mm can handle it.

Ok here comes my most dramatic & emotional stuff ever XD

550 hours of Xenoblade Chronicles X and didn't finish chapter 10 yet, no wonder people tell me I should get out more lol

Taking my time and exploring Mira. I promised myself that I will discover all unreachable places and do it with flightless skell because I totally agree with this guy, world is really big if you explore it on foot.
Recently I found about air stalling technique because I never use dual guns [I like javelins and rayguns]. And I figured out that it's technically possible to reach Floating Reef (highest place in Oblivia or even on entire Mira). Believing in principles always did me harm lol but I don't give up so I decided to give it a go (I wish I didn't tho).

I need to lure Elaine out of Lake Basel and 'Sky high/Primer' her all the way up. It will help me gain altitude and stay aloft while Ghostwalker will help me move leftwards so when it's time I can squeeze between the rocks and enter the tunnel. Sounds easy peasy but it's not. It took me 45 days to do it. Why do I even bother? What the hell I was thinking?
Learning air stalling took me a day, mastering it took me a week! Perfecting and polishing it took another three weeks. And last two weeks I was improving my reflexes/timing/spacing and choosing the right spot so Elaine won't despawn and lead me where I need to go. And finally ...….. I DID IT! YAY!

Wicky reached Floating Reef on foot! How on Earth is that freaking possible? Goodness knows how many times I tried lol and always failed, only once I got close and now 45 days later I did it. And I did it just the way I wanted. It's the perfect plan but extremely tough, it's easily the hardest and most legendary thing I've ever done in a video game. I broke my fingernails, my fingers were bleeding, my hands hurt even now so I need to give it a break lol. Will get back to XCX in a week or two. Button mashing is literally painful *rolls eyes*

Wicky at Floating Reef

Using target-assisted jump and horizontal boost I managed to climb atop Noctilucent Sphere in Sylvalum without flight module

And finally using geometry and target-assisted jump I reached Talon Rock Summit in Primordia without flight module. I also reached Demon's Pocket but that was really easy.

Been a long time since I posted here. I've completed Yakuza 0 a couple days ago. Great game. Very enjoyable. I will definitely pick up 1 and 2 when they're on sale. Right now, just chilling with some StarCraft 2 ladder until I figure out what game to play next.

Y0 offers much more in comparison to Yakuza Kiwami 1 and 2. Although Yakuza Kiwami 1 and 2 are still solid games with good main plot and interesting side quests.

 

[BumbleBee]

reviews seem good so I bought the game this morning and love it!!!!

Project cars 2. Forza 7 , Crew 2 & GTA-5

Haven't finished K2 yet (~10h in) but i'd say so far it feels like both K1 and K2 together are about as big as just Y0.
I'd like to buy Y6 but it feels wrong. Ports of 3-5 exist on PS4 but they have japanese only releases. I'm guessing/hopefully they were waiting for 5 to release (i believe it was this summer in japan) before translating them for a 3-5 packaged release in the west..

Thing with Y6 AFAIK is that it's first game on new Dragon Engine, due to this it has limited gameplay (main map is smaller than usual). It also drags a bit in the beginning, which can be tedious. I'm still hoping that it will get released on PC as on PS4 Y6 and YK2 are running at 30 fps (tops). It's just jarring when you switch from 60 fps on Y0. Overall in comparison between Y6 and YK2 it's YK2 that wins due to being more mature.
Y3-5 "remasters" were suppose to be released this year in the west but so far SEGA gave no updates. The good thing is that they are limited to res bump and will run at 60 fps on PS4 no problem.

 

[Calmmo]

I believe 5 was released this summer in Japan (based on a very quick google search last night) so that's probably why the delay. Also translating them is probably going to take time.. as long as there is a release ~early 2020.. well, i'd be cool with that.
Played about 5h of Judgement too, seems OK so far, but kinda missing that over the top flavor of Yakuza, far more down to earth story/characters and plotpoints, but it might be that things get at least a little crazier later on.

 

[SN2716057]

I really liked Gunpoint, and My Friend Pedro, so I bought Heat Signature. Great top-down action stealth game that uses pause as a feature. I'm staying in the space oriented game atm.
Rebel Galaxy Outlaw gives a strong Wing Commander vibe so I will mos def check it out.
And lastly I reinstalled No Man's Sky to see if the new update will keep me occupied a bit longer.. will update later.

That sounds fun!

 

[Mussels]

That sounds fun!

it is, i focused on what annoyed me the most and got mods to remove it and now i'm having fun running around stabbing things again

 

[Vayra86]

Sooo. I guess I didn't fully read the instructions for Hellgate.

Here I was, all hyped just prior to finishing Nightmare (2nd) difficulty, thinking the next challenge would be Hell. Level 48... not even capped (55). I kill Sydonai. Game ends. No NG++!! Empty quest log. No content. Sadface. Do I even roll another character knowing there is no endgame? The only saving grace is the mods available... and there is very little in the way of content as such.

@Ahhzz you've been warned.

Ooooops.... Well, thanks for the warning. I took a few days off due to a major Exchange rollout, still got another week to go, but I'll bear that in mind for when I can get back

I might just have to see what it takes for MP .... At least grind for a little better gear

edit: or, simply dig into my monster GoG list or the Steam one
