Comment on Why So Many Video Games Cost So Much to Make
Valmond@lemmy.world 1 week agoThat thought is why we don’t have really good games any more, but games made for an engine.
Where are the new C&C, the new Neverwinter nights, the new Commandos (by Eidos), the list goes on.

The new C&C is Tempest Rising. The new Neverwinter Nights has a variety of answers, from Baldur’s Gate 3 to Solasta to Pillars of Eternity, depending on what you’re looking. Commandos has spawned an entire genre at this point; not only is there a new Commandos coming soon that looks good, we just had a series of three and a half games from the sadly-now-defunct Mimimi that all fit the bill, as well as that game Sumerian Six just last year.

No worries. There are lots of kinds of games we used to get a lot of back in the day, but their successors or spiritual successors don’t get the kind of attention or marketing that the industry giants do. Often times, if you miss a certain kind of game, just start searching for “modern games like X”, and you’ll probably find it.

I’ll be there looking for modern Desperados ^^ etc.
