I finally got Star Renegades, it's been on my wish list for years. I'm glad I did, its awesome. There's a lot of strategy involved in battle, and any mistake is costly, even deadly. Against some enemies, each round of battle feels like a puzzle where you have to find the optimal solution. I love it.

Quoting: ValckI wasn't going to comment on this article in any way at all, but after this, I feel I have to present the obverse of the coin….............

What the...? Tasharen is a Canadian company based in Ontario.

This looks like the beginning of an exponential curve... we might be at the inflection point. Let's hope it keeps going this way. :)

There's no way Nintendo would ever have made that game. Ever. I've never been a fan of Pokemon and monster catching games in general, I find that they are just grind, grind and more grind. The battles are boring and have very little strategy involved. But Palworld, now, we are talking. You, the hero, can actually do useful stuff, you are not just a spectator anymore. Combine this with a survival/crafting game and I'm sold. The kids think its the best game ever. Even my wife loves it, she likes it enough to play it by herself. She never does that normally, we only play coop games like Serious Sam once in a while, and its enough video games for her.

Hollow Knight had a lot of qualities, but the bland monochromatic look of the environment was not one of its strengths... Its far from the grandiose colorful areas of other metroid style games.

Quoting: woox2kIt's one of those games i always plan to start playing again but never do...

The game itself is amazing! Loads of content, challenging, story is interesting, looks amazing even though it is just another block world but they somehow nailed it.
Yet, i feel the whole "the world is a staircase" is getting a bit old and is a bit offputting. Another huge issue is the combat mechanic, or the lack of it. Every encounter just feels dull and seems as if you are fighting with cardboard cutouts.

They have asked the community to vote on priorities often in the past, the combat update was always dead last at the bottom. Most players want more stuff to build, more heavy simulation stuff and some more story. A real combat update will come in time, but clearly it's not what the community wants short term.

As usual, I'll have to comment that this game keeps getting better and better and better and better... and it was already amazing to start with. This update is no exception, so many more things to do!

Quoting: tuxmuppetKinda reminds me of Catacomb 3-D.

Spoiler, click me

I found a secret easter egg about that in the early game...
