My friends and I have been exhausting our current library of games and are looking for suggestions. It tends to be pretty hard for us to all meet at the same time. Usually we prefer to do stuff that we can finish in one session on the weekends because one person might have to leave as another person joins. Don’t mind if its new or old, but id prefer it not to be $60 if its going to be a 2hr stint

Games on our current rotation:

  • Civ VI
  • Deep rock galactic
  • CS:GO
  • War thunder

Don’t really play anymore

  • Apex
  • L4D2
  • Payday 2
  • Gmod
  • Day of infamy
  • Insurgency
  • Project Zomboid
  • Foxhole
  • Risk of rain 2
  • Don’t starve together
  • Verdun
  • Killing floor
  • Minecraft
  • Terraria

        The game is a much smoother experience than V2 and will continue to receive UX improvements as I’m sure you’re aware V2 has had over the years.

        That said it will never feel the same as V2, and I think at this stage it’s intentional from FatShark

        I am far too casual to care to keep a running list of issues and their status. What I can say is:

        • The population has stabilized in what I consider a good place
        • I haven’t had a crash in a couple of months
        • Performance is fine even on high settings
        • They’ve changed up how the shops and crafting are organized and it makes way more sense than it initially did
        • Crafting feels way more useful and accessible than it initially did

          That’s awesome! I’m gonna have to revisit that then. I’ve always liked the 40k setting more than fantasy, so this will be perfect. Thanks for the info.

      Really? I love the setting of darktide but couldn’t commit to it like Vermintide. Has there been a fair amount of improvements since launch (I haven’t looked)?

        Far too casual of a player to bother tracking a change log for this sort of game. Heck I wasn’t even able to articulate why I prefer Darktide in this comment. The best I can do is direct you to my other comment in this thread.

          Haha all good, was just curious if anything major stood out since launch. Partially looking for a reason to give it another go if I’m being honest.
