I know a little about Orks and their weird group psychic thing where painting
their ships red to go fast really makes them faster, and their tech only works
because they think it should. But then I guess Orks aren’t even in this game. I
get that it’s a violent, black-vs-grey universe. I think it’s the originator of
the term grimdark? The emperor is some immortal Mr House asshole who’s
worshipped as a god, which powers some of their tech and protects them from
chaos via his psyker shit? And he’s kind of a fascist, but it’s that or bloody
chaos? Rogue traders seem like somewhere between a privateer and a baron,
plundering tithes in their castle-ships and acting as an arm of the Imperium in
backwater space? There are more wizards than I expected. Not sure if these
mechanicus dudes are pulling “Temples of Syrinx” thing, or they know how the
tech works but not why so they worship it? Or if it’s actually machine spirits?
Anything super foundational that I’m missing?
I’m replying to my own post here for the sake of anyone who might read this in the future, Light Brigade seems to be very good so far as well. Roguelite with WW1 guns and magic mixed, a little like Remnant: From the Ashes.
I inherited my dad's Quest 3S recently. What are some of your favorite single player or 1v1 games for it?

So far I’ve just been checking out free games to get a feel for the system, but
it looks like I have a 3 month pass for Horizon+ ready to activate, so I can try
some other stuff once I have an idea what to start with. I’ve been having some
fun with Ironstrike and War of Wizards so far. I like the concept of the virtual
CCG in Cards & Tankards, though it does seem like it’s going to try and bleed
money like most “free” card battlers.
I had emergency surgery and as a result it looks like I will be zonked out on oxys for the next week. Never had these, what are some good movies to watch in this condition?

Nothing with too many hearty belly laughs, it was abdominal surgery.

I played the first one of these a long, long time ago. Puzzle platformers where
you rotate between characters with different abilities to guide them all to a
goal. Reminded me a lot of The Lost Vikings, but traditional fantasy and less
funny.
I haven't seen anyone post this classic yet this year. Merry Christmas, live long and prosper!

So who ended up the more powerful space warlock: Wesley or Sisko?

So who ended up the more powerful space warlock: Wesley or Sisko? - Lemmy.World
I understand there are novels and comics where they both make appearances after
their shows, and maybe I read that Wesley is in Picard? I’m familiar with none
of that material, so I’m just curious, does going Pact of the Traveler or Pact
of the Wormhole give better spacelock spells?
Anyone a fan of Wizardry, or other first-person dungeon crawlers?

Anyone a fan of Wizardry, or other first-person dungeon crawlers? - Lemmy.World
I think I played whichever one was on my Amiga waaaay back in the day, and
whichever one was on PS3 for a bit. I was also a big fan of some of the Might
and Magic games, which I feel were something of a bridge between the old dungeon
crawlers and something like Morrowind. Anyway I was thinking of trying one out
again. Any recommendations, maybe one with modern QOL features to ease in? I see
there’s a remake of Wizardry 1(?) and remasters of the Etrian Odyssey games in
the past couple years. I’m also kind of intrigued by Undernauts, which looks
like it might throw a little Shin Megami Tensei flavor in?
Where's the best point to jump into modern Resident Evil?

Where's the best point to jump into modern Resident Evil? - Lemmy.World
I played 1-4 back in the day, but my memory of the details is pretty fuzzy.
Something something Umbrella releases a new virus like iPhones every few years,
something something, somehow Wesker returned. Anyway, I hear 7 is kind of a soft
reboot? Is that a good one to get back into the series with, and not have to
know 12 games of plot? And if 7 is good, does 8/Village follow directly from
that without needing too much prior game knowledge?

Lowest price yet according to gg.deals. I’d been waiting for this to drop under
$30 so I could scratch my Shivering Isles itch without spending 6 hours
installing mods first.
