I think I’ll be finally picking up Project Wingman and Black Mesa in this sale.

What’s on your list?

    Someone mentioned SpaceBourne 2 in another thread the other day, so I checked the reviews which made it sound like a pretty good game and it was on sale so I bought it.

    Mechanically, it’s awesome. Polish wise… It needs work. Text-to-speech voice overs (which I hope are placeholders because they are jarring as fuck), kind of a mishmash of aesthetic design that makes me think the assets are merely freebies on the Unreal store, just missing that general pizazz that shows off the quality.

    Not that it takes away from the fun, which is the most important part. The best way to even describe the game is “Mount & Blade in space.” It combines some of the best aspects of Elite Dangerous, X3/X4, NMS, and Stellaris into its own thing, and it is super cool to play if not look at (though the crazy set piece things in the MQ are super fucking cool; like being eaten by a space kraken and then escaping in a smaller ship while avoiding thousands of little squiddy things, and they’re actually there not like some BS particle effect or optical illusion).
