@Duke-Whisky Anomaly comes out TODAY!? Be back in a week…

@Snackness - Right?! I swear that just snuck out suddenly. What happened to a fortnight?!

I’ve been eyeing Manor Lords, myself. My city-builder game for now has been Farthest Frontier, which is close to 1.0 launch and just had a major update for its combat system that I haven’t explored yet.
Lightyear Frontier - Early Access. This is a life sim type game for 1-4 players with a little alien civilization mystery attached. I spent about 30-40h on just the basics before I put it down for the next update, having done virtually everything the EA launch had to offer. I have not found all the secrets, though, so I may go back to that.
Soulmask - Early Access in June; open limited-time beta on May 1. This is kind of like Conan Exiles, in that it’s a survival-tribal type of game with PVE elements. I’m not sure how to fully explain it. I wanted to like it, but I had a hard time getting into it alone, so I feel like it’s meant for multiplayer. There are PVP elements to it as well (PVE and PVP servers, for example).

I picked up Broken Roads, which is a new Dingo Elysium game (dialogue 'em up set in Australia). It’s all right so far! Still figuring out if I’m enjoying the philosophical system as it sort of seems like the usual RPG choices but with a reference to Hume or Machiavelli. Like, should I save the raider chief’s life because all human life has inherent good and I’m a staunch Kantian? Or should I kill him for the utilitarian greater good? OR should I kill him because he might come after me and I’m a nihilist and therefore must maximize my own chances to survive?
I mean, it’s cool so far. The controls and pathfinding are a little clunky. It has an isometric fallout feel, as it’s post apocalyptic.
Edit: It has terrible reviews, seemingly because of the clunky controls and bugs, but they haven’t really bothered me yet. Maybe it’s like a YMMV situation.

That phrase has a very different meaning in Australia.

Both meanings fit me, I think.

@dvoraen PLAY LIGHTYEAR FRONTIER WITH ME PLEASE

I spent 100+ in Enshrouded and now I have nothing left to do in the game and my life is meaningless.

You must start to build one voxel at a time!

@Cobalt OKAY. WILL WE START FROM SCRATCH? Also I have Enshrouded too.
