Usually when people mix up the singular and plural forms of the chance polyhedrals it's using "dice" to refer to a single die, but this should clearly be titled Dice in the Dungeon, you're definitely using more than one! :tongue:
Horse Runner DX is a wholesome endless-runner where you play as a herd of different horses

So... you run your horse to death, then switch to the next one in the herd?I just have this horrible mental image of the lead horse in the herd missing a jump and breaking a leg, and the rest of the herd sweeping stoically on by without breaking stride. That's probably not how such a wholesome-looking game handles it, though.

I won't be buying at launch (for a few reasons, mainly my current financial situation) but I'll be keeping a close eye on it and from what I've already seen I expect I will probably be getting it sooner rather than later. But we'll see.

I was always more of a fortress player than an adventure mode player (though I did have some memorable run, like when I realized gravity is the most dangerous killer in the game), but I'm glad to see it come up to parity again.

Probably not a day-1 purchase, but I'll be watching it closely – from what I saw of what's been revealed so far I'm cautiously optimistic about this one.

Nice to finally get closure. :smile: Incidentally, I recently got back into playing TF2 (after a five-year break) from this video [External Link] showcasing a new community-made gamemode called One Thousand Uncles where teams of up to 24 humans take on 40 Engineer bots. It's a bit like a reverse Mann vs. Machine where you're attacking rather than defending, though it's developed it's own unique meta. It's chaotic, overwhelming, and I'm having a blast.
Edit: if you try it out, for some reason the connection to the item servers nearly always breaks the first time you join one of the servers, but luckily a quick "retry" in the console fixes it. And if you're on the Montreal servers late in the day for North America, you might run into me. :smile: (Though not for the next week as I'll be visiting family.)

Wow, I knew I'd been playing a lot of RimWorld this year (it only took me a decade from backing the original Kickstarter campaign to finally get into it), but I didn't realize it was 51% of my play time. :whistle:

The new mysterious island is the largest and harshest in Palworld's history. The island is about six times the size of Sakurajima, which was added in the last major update!2027 Palworld update: "Yep, another new island added! This one is larger than the surface area of Earth." :tongue:

It's on my wishlist from hearing about it before, as the idea sounds interesting. I'll give the demo a try and we'll see how it goes.
