What games have the best mining/smelting/forging components? in c/games

How about Planet Crafter? You crash land on a planet and you have to terraform the planet using the materials you gather.

There's also Occupy Mars. This is more realistic. It's just that there's one aspect of it that I think you might love.

Using a drill, crane and vehicle to break down boulders for example.

Since I finished Starfield. I've had an itch for more space exploration. I decided to get back into Elite Dangerous. I haven't played it for a good couple years. I bought the latest DLC for it when it was released. I just never got around to playing it. I'm absolutely loving the space legs.

I've been going from system to system. Mapping each planet and moon. Landing on those that I can. Exploring for geological features and biology samples. All while marathoning my favourite YouTube channels.

I haven't played the games I'm about to recommend.

Sengoku Dynasty - https://store.steampowered.com/app/1702010/Sengoku_Dynasty
Medieval Dynasty - https://store.steampowered.com/app/1129580/Medieval_Dynasty

Is it Life Simulator type games you're interested in? Or just specifically those concerning mining, smithing, and forging?

Especially with a decent modpack. Specifically, one that comes with Tinker's Construct.

If you could give 10 years of development time to up to 10 software projects, which would you choose? in c/[email protected]

I'd add Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead to go along with DF. Also DFHack.

This type of stuff always reminds me of "Welcome to Nightvale".

You know what? I'd allow it in c/dnd_memes

Sorry. At best I can only offer to play a tribute.

At least I know in advance. Otherwise I'd likely lose my ship going too fast. in c/elitedangerous

Aye, that's right. It's the Condor Fed fighter.

He already has carpal tunnel in the left one.

Baldur's Gate 3's director hasn't completely ruled out DLC in c/[email protected]

I'd love a system like Neverwinter Nights 2 had. Giving us the ability to create custom campaigns.

Anyone for a game of Buckaroo? in c/dnd_memes

Such a missed opportunity to call it "Stagable".
