The Homeworld 3 demo is impressive and I'm really enjoying Lightyear Frontier as well. Definitely going to buy both when they come out in March. I've been hooked on the Homeworld universe since I started playing it in the 90's (25 years ago! lol I'm old) so it's been quite a long wait but it looks like BBI have done a great job. I've loved them since Hardspace Shipbreaker so I knew this would be something special.

Have been playing and just finished Geodepths. Really nice indie dev first person mining, smelting, resource gathering on an alien planet type of game. Wish it had lasted longer to be honest.

You forget a thousand voice chatbots every day, how about you make sure this is one of them...

I recently re-installed The Crew 2 because I wanted to start a new character and start the story again from scratch. Unfortunately I'd forgotten that YOU CAN'T START AGAIN (Jackie Chan Confused Meme). Because of these ridiculous shenanigans of theirs your progress is inextricably tied to your online account. They have literally built a system that limits replayability. Bravo.

I've sunk 473 hours into it haha. Haven't played it recently though... and you've just reminded me of it so I'm going to go salvage a Mackerel right now! :)

Really stunning looking atmospheric game but then I read this in a Steam review posted today by user Sawovsky "By far, the worst thing in this game is infuriatingly outdated traversal mechanics. The game only allows you to climb or descend at very specific places, and it won't let you traverse anywhere else, despite being obvious that our character can do so. It's hard to describe just how annoying this is." I think I'll wait to see if others echo this sentiment before going for it...

Back in the 90's I owned a Forte VFX1 headset (shout out to my config.sys and autoexec.bat bros) and that truly tested your stomach but it was "the future" so everyone seemed to put up with the near constant nausea and vomiting. Things are so much better now, but there's one fundamental aspect of VR in my view that will always hold it back. It's not the cost, cos that eventually comes down. It's that you'll never get away from the fact that you are wearing a giant plastic thing on your head. You can't itch your face. It gets hot and sweaty and generally not a fun time after a while. The minute someone figures out how to safely somehow beam the experience into your brain, without having to wear a high tech casserole dish on your head for hours then it'll become the new global thing.

Isn't this game living up to the hype then? When I heard that planet landings and takeoffs were going to be cut scenes I did wonder.

I've had this game for a while but just haven't been able to make friends with the UI so far. It feels like there's a cool little game loop in there but it just hasn't grabbed me yet. Do you know if there's a good guide out there I could look at?
