      @Tez Final release build of Raft just dropped. Voidtrain also has similarities to the survival genre?

          @GF it’s great

          it has horror themes to it but not like jump-scares just like, there will definitely be a MOMENT where you’re like “wait, fuck, what” but

          it’s great

            7D2D, Conan (monetary scheme is about to get predatory, but you REALLY only need the base game as long as you’re not playing on their public servers), Grounded, Raft.

              @IoleRae Oo, that’s two votes for Raft. It moved up my list. I really liked Conan, tbh. The aesthetics were great. I’m a simple Tez.

                Conan is about to add ritualistic magic and a builder creative mode. ^^

                Raft is excellent even solo, honestly. It’s more story focused than most survival craft games, but the way they present the story (it’s all breadcrumbs, basically) is excellent.

                  I desperately WANT to play Minecraft right now but I want to play the newest version, and one of forge’s recent updates broke my mods

                  Huge mood.

                  as previously stated, good day.

                        @IoleRae I was watching that! There’s another game I’ve been watching closely that you might enjoy, too, Nightingale.

                          My gaming is drifting more to my Switch lately, which surprises me since I’m generally a PC person, but it’s where I’m at.

                          I’ve finally gotten around to Metroid: Dread and it’s all I ever wanted out of a Metroid game, so it’s my hours sink atm. Also gonna pick up Neon White to start this weekend, I think, the vibe has finally won me over even though I mostly don’t do first-person stuff.

                          Stray is super-tempting. I usually wait until a game’s been out forever to buy but I am enjoying the screenshots.

                          I want something else to get me through this
                          Semi-charmed kinda life, baby, baby
                          I want something else, I'm not listening when you say good-bye

                            While I haven’t played Animal Crossing, I have come to the understanding that it is closest to that, of the various ways the genre manifests. You start on a wild island with one NPC and others visit and you have to convince them to move in, then build their house. The houses/buildings are prefabs, but the game is voxel based and you have full control on paths/water/elevation (though, you have to move each individual shovel of dirt; there’s a wheelbarrel, but it only holds ten shovels of dirt, it’s rough).

                            Most charming thing I’ve played in a while, even with the tediousness of the dirt (everything else is fine; I expect the dirt thing to get adjusted in early access).

                            Ooooo, thank you. (ETA: lol, had it on my wishlist already apparently! IT LOOKS SO COOL!!!)

                              Ark 2 is coming out in… October?? I will disappear off the face of the earth when it happens to breed a dynasty of Argentavis named after pantheons of gods.

                              Lately though, I’ve been playing Path of Exile, V Rising, Mythgard (Digital card game with gorgeous artwork and a fun setting) and recently put down Grounded which was an amazingly fun Honey I Shrunk the Kids style survival game.

                                    @IoleRae Aha! Probably not for me, then, but I know AC has a HUGE appeal to a ton of people. I’ll mention it to the roommates. Sure a cute game with a neat theme, though!

                                    I’m a huge sucker for any kind of game where you build an economy, myself. Games where you start with nothing and are struggling for basic needs but by the end you have massive infrastructure and automation. ONI, Dwarf Fortress, Satisfactory and others all scratch this itch, but I’m always on the look out for more.

                                        I am still playing Overwatch. 👀

                                        But I recommend Wildermyth, Peglin and Cloud Gardens - all available on Steam.

                                          @IoleRae I think I saw it advertised on Facebook and thus instantly wrote it off. Looking now again with your nudge.

                                            Yeah, they’re advertising the hell out of it. I have not yet survived a winter (froze to death first time, had no water the second), but I’m hopeful. It’s like Rimworld minus combat/raids plus harder survival.
