Sigh Where is Bully 2, R*?
âDeathloop: It isnât a Roguelike, itâs supernatural Hitmanâ
An interesting comparison and itâs definitely put Deathloop in my watchlist
My thoughts exactly when I saw this review, good to know that there will still be some hitman-like games out there after the Hitman 3 content well dries up
dishonored is arguably kinda hitman-like.
looking forward to deathloop but i ainât jumping in for a loooong time.
It has more in common with the Thief series and Dark Messiah than with Hitman. Games closer to Hitman are the Death to Spies series, Alekhineâs Gun (Death to Spies 3) and Mission Impossible on the N64âŚ
The Ship could also be a good candidate for a Hitman like game.
absolutely but theyâre both systems-heavy, open sandbox stealth games where you can use an array of tools and the environment to assassinate npcs, often by manipulating the diorama theyâre involved in.
definitely less social stealth in dishonored, which is a huge part of hitman, but i reckon they have a fair few similarities. iâd be very surprised if hitman wasnât at least a little bit of an influence.
Kindof hilarious to me. I love Hitman but canât stand Dishonored. Definetly waiting to see what Deathloop is like on reviews, it sounds fun enough, but I also canât help but wonder how much replay value the game truly has.
Same here.
Though for me, the first-person perspective just doesnât click. I much prefer third-person cameras in games, especially stealth ones.
The time loop, schedule-type hook sounds pretty cool though.
i realise iâm the only one who cares, but paradox announced the new stellaris dlc for console too:
thatâll put us only one behind pc.
I noticed Stellaris is free to play on Steam until the end of the Paradox sale today, so I gave it a quick try, and am considering actully buying it at some point after all⌠Is there any DLC you would consider a âmust haveâ?
in order of importance: utopia, federations and - to a lesser extent - nemesis are the big expansions. they change up the game quite drastically and have loads of content.
apocalypse adds planet destroying stuff, the largest ship class, and marauders (space mongols), but isnât essential.
megacorp, lithoids, necroids and synthetic dawn add new empire types/playstyles; playable corporations, rock monsters, space zombies and robot empires. really good stuff but can wait till youâre into it and want to try out something different.
distant stars, ancient relics and leviathans add additional story content, archeological sites and big space monsters. i personally think the story stuff is a big part of the appeal, but i wouldnât necessarily call them essential.
other than that, itâs mostly cosmetic, except horizon signal which is a free (and awesome) quest line by the guy behind sunless sea.
loads more deets here.
Oh my gosh you can now book a June time slot for any of the Tribeca Games demos. This also includes the ability to book one 12-minute time slot for Twelve Minutes. OH MY GOSH
Thanks for the details I actually ended up nabbing the game on GOG since it was even cheaper as part of the Paradox essentials bundle
Not gonna play any time soon, but will give it a go eventually and if I find it engaging, I might start throwing in a DLC every now and then.
frugal choice!
it took me a while to get my head around so hit me up if you have any questions.
Yeah, the learning curve is the main thing that´s gonna be preventing me from playing. Simply don´t have enough time for it nowadays⌠Will take you up on it if necessary though!
Microsoft and Bethesda to announce five new AAA games this summer, says Xbox insider
Along with Ben Decker (Head of Xbox Gaming Services) saying, âWe have 23 studios across Xbox and Bethesda, working on Halo, Forza, Fallout, and new IP that we havenât even talked about yet thatâs gonna blow your mind.â I am really looking forward to E3 this year.

Fallout
Didnât Beth milked and dragged that series through the muck a bit too much to be enthusiastic for another one? Give other titles a chance to get the Bethesda treatment
You should keep your eyes on the modding scene
