  • Is combat focus a deal breaker? If not: Faster Than Light Volcanoids (early access) Darkest dungeon (kind of) Xcom

    If you step away from the ship, things like mass effect and outer worlds come to mind. If the ship can be a base there’s a whole world there. Astroneer, planet crafter (early access), Starbound, terraria, Subnautica If exploration/colony sim is cool you’re looking at factorio, rift breaker, frostpunk, ixion (hardcore!), satisfactory

    I expect I’ve stayed from your prompt at this point. It’s a tough niche. Good luck with your search!

    Edit: on mobile, don’t know why my line breaks didn’t work. Forgive the formatting.




  • You know what the community is called, but because you judge the question to be stupid you’re attacking them anyway by just changing the word? People like you are the reason communities like this exist in the first place. You make people afraid to express their curiosity and improve themselves as a person. Everyone has holes in their knowledge, and sometimes those holes are embarrassing. The best way to combat ignorance in our society is to foster a culture where people are encouraged to express their curiosity and educate themselves.

    A great way to develop the most user friendly ruleset is to have them compete! Here’s what I mean by this: once you have your top 5ish systems, just lookup 1 vs 2, 1 vs 3, and so on. You’ll notice some rules that are coming up almost every time. These are the greatest pain points for users of that ruleset. From here, you can cherry pick the best of all worlds! A word of caution: if you intend to avoid a particular rule or style, consider why it exists in the first place. Often when a system keeps a part of the game most players dislike it’s because that system is essential for maintaining balance somewhere.




  • My kit:

    • pocket knife
    • flashlight
    • wallet
    • folding phone stand
    • phone
    • earbuds
    • pen (with a cap, not a clicky)
    • sharpie
    • breath mints
    • 4’ multi-end charging cable
    • thumb drive
    • lightning > 3.5mm (aux)
    • USBC > 3.5mm
    • bandaids
    • OTC drugs (Advil, Tylenol, Aleve, Benadryl, lactase (I’m lactose intolerant))

    Everything on that list was added because I needed it and didn’t have it on multiple occasions. There have been plenty of other things that I would love to carry, but found too bulky to justify.

    A note to everyone recommending condoms: they do expire, and can wear through if carried in an environment with friction (wallet, pocket, etc). I prefer to play it safe and make a stop at a drug store should the need arise.
