You a t90Official enjoyer too?

I know him but sadly never got too serious into Age of Empires. Mostly just play with my friends and get my ass handed to me lol

MK11 worth it for single player alone? I mean $5 is nothing, but from a time standpoint?

[–] simple 1 points 1 year ago

The campaign is a few hours long, aside from that the towers are pretty fun singleplayer arcade modes. It depends on how much you'd enjoy fighting games, but I'd say $5 is worth it.

How is Monster Train? I usually don't go for card games, but I played a lot of Slay the Spire.

I second Oxygen Not Included, but skip the DLC

[–] simple 2 points 1 year ago

Monster train is lovely. I actually prefer it to Slay the Spire, but it is a little bit more complex. I would highly recommend not playing with the DLC at the start because that makes things a lot more complicated. If you do end up buying the DLC, there's an option to turn it off. Only when you've mastered the game should you turn it on.
