@Moah3 ah yeah proper roguelike. I just realized how heavily that word has been diluted now :o

@Moah3 I assume you already played Hades? I do think it felt too zoomed out for comfort on the deck tho (or my eyes are getting old).

There are a bunch of rougelikes, where do you feel they fall short? (its not normally my genre)

@Mordaith @IBeHarlie how are these not visual novels already

@Moah3 I think a lot of gamedevs became gamedevs for this reason

@TomHallGames @Moah3 local immediate care I think I would say yeah

@C_RNIG @fabsanke pfff trains ey?

@sukebandeka @tombness baw, anything can be turned to humor, especially historical big scary people.

A go to I use when I want something different is girls unt panzer shots or ww2 cat pics. there is a lot

@naval thats a horrifying thought

@TheWesterFront We use Microsoft teams?

@TilFolkvang lack of beard and sanity.

@mapurite82 @LukePlunkett yeah was easily GOTY for me when it came out

@Marbozir Maybe, but sometimes in interviews you just say something without being able to maximize the clarity, and it can easily just mean that his team is sitting far away and heavily focused etc. But we will see. xcom is a strong brand I think and sold well (?) so you expect sequels

@Marbozir I dont see how you can jump to those conclusions? Why would he need to lead an xcom 3 team? presumably he trained someone else while making xcom/xcom2? that seems to be how firaxis has done Civ and how we at paradox do most franchises.

@FaeStae You need one area that is your main specialty and where you have competitive skills, but after that going wide is great unless you want to slot into massive AAA teams.

@warhammer @PrimarisLt That dread looks great but the new primaris looks more like orks. The obsession with wacky guns in strange poses is a big turnoff on primaris for me and I dont see how you could look at these compared to devastators and feel like its an improvement

@TilFolkvang I wrote an idea pitch (maybe 6 years ago?) similar to that that leans more into the Expanse vibe and no FTL. Maybe one day. Solar system focused games dont seem to be made much. Kinda debatable if its Stellaris tho, I think Stellaris is about the whole galaxy and aliens

@TilFolkvang its basically been close to dead for a few years sadly I think.

@ceeebie Diamond Dog is MVP tho yeah

@ceeebie Just some scotch imo. I strangely enjoy all the super long cutscenes :D

@CountCristo42 @IBeHarlie @G27Status I make no excuses for my basicness
