Also, Satisfactory, Against the Storm, and Sins of a Solar Empire II all hit 1.0 this year officially "releasing" in 2024.
No one is talking about it because of it's massive original release scandal, but the complete redesign of Wayfinder is actually pretty fun, though I haven't had a lot of time to play it much. It may not be a masterpiece, but gotta love the devs for stripping all F2P FOMO trash from the game and releasing it as a single player ARPG with all planned micro transactions added to the loot table. That's a huge step in the right direction.
I like games that do their own thing. They really took a whole lot of different ideas that mostly had been done, and threw it together into something new, and the end result is impressive.
We've got so many clones of clones of clones, in both AAA and indie, that it's especially nice to see something that isn't 99% like other games in the genre.
It's also nice that, if I were to compare to other games, they're not even the really popular ones. It's a bit Majesty, a bit Northgard, a bit 4X, of course a whole bunch of city builder, and then roguelite elements.
It's fun, I should get back into it.
I am glad to hear Wayfinder is fun. I had been eyeing it but literally no one talks about the game and instead goes on and on about the drama and redemption story.
Which sounds pretty awesome for them, but its hard to tell if its a good game underneath it.
So far it's been pretty fun. Not best game ever territory or anything, but enjoyable.
Biggest problem it was a way more demanding game than it's art-style would have you believe. My PC chokes on it so I have to play on my steamdeck, which has some of it's own issues there.
Does that extend to the coop play being laggy? Because I been looking for something for me and my boy to play so we don't do OoT Randomizer for the 19th time this year.
Haven't tried the coop, but I don't think I've seen many complaints about it.
Balatro, Unicorn Overlord, and Factorio: Space Age all deserve mentions, too. 2024 was a great year for gaming.
Please don't mention Factorio. I cannot afford to build another 700 hour factory right now.
But the factory must grow.
