You should definitely watch the General Sam videos of Kenshi. He makes it fun but also doesn’t hide how much of a bitch this game can be. He’s also probably why I got pulled into the game so hard.
Comment on Game franchises you like, but wish were anothet genre of video game?

Prepare to either bounce off a game harder than anything before, or lose the next three years of your life. Or, possibly, somehow, both.

I bounced after 10 minutes. It just wasn’t for me.

I only skimmed a couple reviews because I like going into games blind. My favorite game experience I’ve ever played was *Ragnarok Online”, which had basically no quests or goals other than “be in the world and make a name for yourself amongst all the other godly player characters who sit around and chat wearing hats.”
No direction or NPCs telling you what to do. Move one map over to explore a new place and get one-shotted by a flower from across the map doing 5x as much damage per hit as your max health. Then come back after you’ve explored for 40 hours and kick fuckin flower ass for eight hours and lose a day of your life grinding and chatting.
I think Kenshi might be my kinda game.

If you like self-directed fun, yeah, you’ll probably jam with it pretty hard. Just be prepared to lose a lot of fights; collecting scar tissue is basically how you level up.
