The Elder Scrolls V꞉ Skyrim - (2011 game) image

A somewhat open world semi-rpg action adventure game.

I can see the appeal from back in the day, but it's pretty awkward now. Figuring out a fuckload of mods is mandatory, and even though that community has been going very very strong for a long time it's fucking hard to do so.

I have nothing but positive things to say about this game. Except for the negative things.

I haven't done a proper review, and might bother some time later.

Baldur's Gate 3 - (2023 game) logo 2

Roam around harassing NPCs and accidentally-clicking in combat.

It has some really obvious and fundamental flaws that make it just terrible to cope with. I feel like I have to struggle against its design. The abilities are buckshot across the interface, the inventory is a hot mess, and combat is awkward and unforgiving. The dialog trees are kind of stupid most of the time, and player customization isn't particularly present, which is strange for a roleplaying game. I can only see that this has appeal because there have been no decent AAA games lately, and their variety is absolute shit.

Defense Grid꞉ The Awakening image

A pretty basic tower defence game, with the twist that enemies reach your core and carry off power thingies. I think I remember a Flash game like this.

It's kinda neat, but reminiscent of old DOS games; not good enough.

A simple semi-roguelike tactics-esque game.

Lots of fun, albeit somewhat slow.

https://amuletofchaos.com/

A top-down strategy game.

I dunno, it's slow and awkward and has more talking than playing. Maybe I'd just have to wade through for much more time before the real game happens, but I'm not going to give it that chance. A game should be fun immediately.
