I would say “thousands” is not really “niche” but yeah, I love small communities. It’s how I started on the internet, and it’s finally where I’m back at now
Freeform building and exploring, crafting, survival, pixel art, endless gameplay. There and definitely a lot of similarities, especially compared to say CS:GO.
Oh, and don’t forget the insane modding communities.
Eh, i wouldn’t call that freeform building and exploring. Rather unconstrained base building, sure, and open world exploration, but you can’t disassemble the boss dungeon and rebuild it as a boat in hell. You can’t automatically kill enemies in a pit of lava. There’s no getting lost in your own mess of tunnels. And no one is making a working GPU out of Pals.
Probably the only reason I did not get into Terraria as an experienced Minecraft player is that my brain really hates 2D worlds.
I realize I miss out on many wonderful games, but how the hell do you feel comfortable restricted to one plane? This constantly makes me as a character feel I’m out in the open from two sides, and God knows what’s there.
Maybe it’s some weird quirk, but my brain is strictly 3-dimensional.
okay but in 3d space you are open from more sides, in terraria at least you can see those 2 sides, in minecraft theres always behind, above, and to the sides
Yes, but my brain subconsciously interprets 2D worlds as ones in which there are front and back (away from screen and in front of it), and I just can’t look there and see what: s there.
Like if you’d build a house with floor, two walls on the opposite sides, and the ceiling, and would decide to completely ignore that your house is actually a tube and two sides are wide open to the outside world.
From my experience, Valheim is pretty close to Terraria in the general feeling of progression and exploration. While being a 3D game, albeit with a third-person camera
But I learned to play some third-person games, while others still hurt. For example, generally slower pace and auto-aim World of Wacraft is alright, but action-packed Warframe that also offers me to shoot in third person (why on goddamn Earth?) is killing me.
As per Valheim, I tried, but it felt odd to me. But thanks a lot for the recommendation!
Yeah, unfortunately, I can’t think of the same type of game in true first person 3D. Maybe, Satisfactory (for building vast structures and automating) or 7 Days to Die (for the survival aspect).
Unrelated, but have you by chance played the Talos Principle games? Those are my favourite first person puzzle games, on the level of Portal and Portal 2.
For building vast structures, to me it’s mostly Space Engineers, but that’s another concept too, not exactly “build a gigafactory” type game. Still, building something big and cool it does.
I’m also sad MMOs are rarely first-person. Like, there was Tera, but it died immediately as I first heard of it, which is super unfortunate because it certainly seemed to tick my boxes.
I didn’t play The Talos Principle, but heard about the game. Spent quite a while in both Portal games though - good times.
Or just oligarch or power addict. In the eyes of most people, wealth is about luxury, material goods and fancy toys. Of course that’s part of it, but at a certain point, wealth is no longer about luxury and toys, it’s about power and having control over resources everyone else depends on.
The ports should be grounded through the motherboard. The case should be grounded through contact with the PSU.
I’ve heard arguments it does some EMI shielding, which is probably technically correct, but with so many cases on the market having huge glass/clear plastic panels in their sides, leaving large gaping EMI holes, that doesn’t seem to matter much.
