The exploration is part of why I love Snowrunner so much. You do end up spending a lot of time slowly working your way through mud, looking for anchor points and easier routes. It feels kinda like an “adventure metroidvania” where the challenge is learning how to navigate the world before giving you the tools to blast through.
I also recommend disabling any minimap in any game ever. Little dotted line syndrome is real and harms immersion
Also hard rec for Any Austin, one of my favorite recent discoveries!

“hey, I know you feel like killing yourself, but if it happens then we’ll just replace you with a shitty bot” probably isn’t as helpful as they thought it would be. It’s violating and ghoulish.

Your friend the Turtle… He died a few years ago. The old idiot puked inside his shell and choked to death on a galaxy or two. Very sad, don’t you think? But also quite bizarre.

Huh, a random recent podcast mentioned them doing something with worms (speculating because there had been an uptick in players). I wonder if this is it?

Been slowly playing through Doom Eternal, raytracing looks really good on that super shotgun! Fun game, just wish they didn’t pop up tutorials any time they thought a player might be a little confused.
Also played a tutorial for Wingspan and was a bit confused but it seemed interesting. I need to sit down and give it a good play through to understand

The other comment contradicts your assumption
- Comment on RoadCraft early review gameplay dropped on Youtube 4 weeks ago:
Not a fan of limiting winch to only scout, I guess driving the rigs will be more important. Being able to stack a mountain of cargo in the back is fun though

Yeah, I also thought it was a weird decision when it was announced. Risk of Rain made the jump though so I was hopeful, but this still has time to turn around

MAM is charming and so well put together, the dev’s interview on the podcast was a fun listen too, if you’re into that! Enjoy the rest of the season 😄 you’ve got a looot coming up

It is different, at least according to the threads I found! In split screen they’re all from Player 1’s party and the second player only controls their character. local multiplayer is a little janky, sometimes player 2 turns invisible and the only way to fix it is to force a cutscene

Woohoo!! 💛 I’ve been curious, I know some of them didn’t make it until the new year. How’s it been? They recently asked devs if they wanted to test web request support so it’s exciting times!
My partner and I got Baldurs Gate 3 and it has been a delight. We pass the ps5 controller so we each get an npc during combat and do splitscreen for the world. She’s a dragonborn paladin and I’m a tiefling warlock, we spent the weekend clearing out a dungeon of goblins!
