I could have sworn we had a general gaming talk thread.. but lord help me, I cannot find it, so here we go!
Anyone playing anything lately?
I usually go in long spurts where I don't play a damn thing. I catch up on TV shows and movies or fuck around on my phone in my free time, but can't be assed to actually boot up a game.
THIS HAS CHANGED!
I saw that a strategy game came to Xbox Gamepass this month.. STELLARIS: CONSOLE EDITION! (also on pee-es4) It's included with Gamepass so why not.
Holy moly I am hooked! It's a "4X" type of strategy game.. think Civilization but in space. It was originally a PC game, but they did an admirable job porting it to the console. There is a TON to learn and figure out.. and I'm still not all there.. but it's pretty fun controlling a fledgling stellar empire.
Each game seems to be randomized, so you never know what you'll get in regards to other aliens, galaxy layout/etc. Highly recommended!
Also, it has a killer synth-type soundtrack (Think Mass Effect combined with the movie Oblivion)
Really listen to them all, they're great 'space-ish' music that kind of go with anything.
Also, I've been playing Clash Royale and Gears POP! on my phone lol
So what is everyone else playing?
