Dwarf Fortress almost made me fail a few courses in undergrad.
That is a game that redefines the concept of fun.
Humor, jokes, memes about TTRPGs
Dwarf Fortress almost made me fail a few courses in undergrad.
That is a game that redefines the concept of fun.
If you don't gotta consult the reference books regularly, are you even enjoying yourself?
It is amazing that in zero words that comic encapsulates nearly everything about Dwarf Fortress.
This is the only game that made me regret wasting time eating IRL because I needed both hands for designating jobs.
Zany uberviolent team shooters about bugs sounds a whole lot like Deep Rock Galactic.
I interpreted 'bugs' as 'glitches' rather than creepy crawlies.
There's also the newish Starship Troopers: Extermination
I'm tempted to put Eve Online into the "Elf Video Game" category, because the UI could, to quote Yahtzee, "only be more unintuitive if it was at the bottom of a fucking well." It doesn't really meet the other categories there. It kinda hits "Halfling Video Games," with the sheer politics involved in that game.
Factorio is solidly a "Dwarven Video Game."
The Eve Online UI is perfectly intuitive. There is simply no other way of providing the level of information needed in a different format than lots of tables.
only thing missing is an SQL prompt.
We found the elf.
ROCK AND STONE, MOTHERFUCKERS!
WHEN YOU ROCK AND STONE, YOU'RE NEVER ALONE!
Tabaxi video games: Open world survival crafting rpg with a million different game mechanics. Bugs out the ass because the developers kept getting distracted by a piece of string or some other random bullshit. Ends on a cliffhanger because they ran out of time to finish the story. Robust modding community by necessity.
So. Starfield then
The factory must grow
The city must survive
The magma must flow (downstairs through the entirety of the fortress)
Dragon games are oldschool play-by-mail grand strategy that no one alive has actually claimed to play but the crustiest of oldbeards recall their uncle playing at some point.
...you really gonna throw out a teaser like that without giving us a list of corresponding games??
Kenku video games: Palworld.
Missing dwarf pve shooter. We fight for rock and stone!
ROCK
AND
STONE
strike the earth motherfuckers, I just built a computer using nothing but water gates and Armok's love
I'm very into base building games in general.
I think it started with Command and Conquer, and blossomed from there.
I'm currently playing valheim and having no fucking clue what I'm doing, but I'm enjoying myself.
My colonists on mars, Rim world, settlers in fo4, and the DRG dwarves will have to wait.
And I want to try out Ixion? but my laptop sucks so I'll have to wait until I get a desktop or something.
Rimworld
Against the Storm
Timberborn
Valheim like you said
Satisfactory
Tried timberborn and against the storm, they're good but not for me.
Satisfactory is a good one but my laptop overheats even when I have it on a fan so I gave up on it.
I used to play many orc flash games in the past. I still do when I want to relieve the past.
Never thought I'd play side by side with an orc.
Nah, the Orc game would be cozy games because it's about taking a break from the usual fair for your society.
Korog be coming home from a day crushing human skulls to play a game about owning a small farm and suddenly having a box of corgi puppies left on your doorstep to take care of, sold with a weighted blanket to burrito yourself in while playing for the best immersed experience.
What sort of games would Kobolds make? Because I can definitely see them making From the Depths
Infinite play games that focus on collecting random shit for the highest score without any discernable benefit from doing so 'cept "bigger number heheh..."
I like team-building isometric RPGs with turn-based combat (I miss you so much Fallout 1 and 2!)
What does that make me?
In browser flash games? How old is this meme?
For orcs, they never went away. Waagh.
Flashpoint is a thing, and orcs are usually regarded as not as technological as other races in fiction so it kinda tracks that they would still be playing flash games
Play a Dwarf civilization in Anbennar (EU4 mod). It's epic. Almost this epic: https://youtu.be/34CZjsEI1yU
I feel like Pizza Possum would fit in with goblin games
So concernedape is a halfling
Celestial video games: Beautifully polished, graphically perfect games that define visual benchmarks for years to come. No interesting content under the surface.
Devil video games: Competitive deck builders that are always receiving nerds and buffs that seem to only harm you, where everyone always seems a little better than you.
Demon video games: Horribly un-optimised sandbox creation games that people only use to cause massive destruction.
Fey video games: Absurd dating sims that exclusively feels like the creator simultaneously has never spoken to anyone romantically in their lives and also fucks.
