Today’s is a pretty Simple one. the Game is Project Zomboid. I usually don’t like sharing 2D games because they’re hard to make look presentable, but i also like sharing images that break out of my usual “Here’s a Landscape shot” and wanted to share this. Me and My friend had a cookout in a motel we have a Base in. My Character is a Regular Middle Aged Suburban Dad named Jerry, while his character is My Character’s Adoptive Stoner Son, named Cable. There’s a whole lot more “lore” behind them but that’s the general gist of it.

It feels like new games are just more of the same, with no real meaning. However I recently started playing "Return of the Obra Dihn" and love open ended deduction in it. It feels like I'm actually figuring things out by myself without being handheld through it. Are there any other games that don't coddle the player that you guys recommend?

Critic Reviews

AltChar - Asmir Kovacevic - 90 / 100

If the online third-person shooters can pass your selection as the games you like, then, by all means, buy Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2. It is a fantastic game that will provide lots of fun whether you prefer to play it alone or with your friends.


Atarita - Eren Eroğlu - Turkish - 90 / 100

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is the best action game that represents the Warhammer universe.


FandomWire - Luke Addison - 10 / 10

Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 isn't just the game of the summer, it's the Game of the Year. Offering unmatched quality from gameplay to graphics, performance, and overall package, there's no better game so far, and no weak spot to try and pick apart. Diehard fans will love it, new fans will adore it.


Gamefa - Mostafa Zahedi - Persian - 8.5 / 10

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is everything we expected it to be. Bloody, chaotic and fun. with an amazing gunplay and amazing operations, you will have blast slaying and crushing Tyranids!


Gameliner - Patrick Meurs - Dutch - 4.5 / 5

The Adeptus Mechanicus at Saber Interactive have earned the Omnissiah's blessing by ensuring that Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 appeases The God-Emperor's followers. The latest quest of Captain Demetrian Titus against the Tyranids will quench the yearnings of the bloodthirsty, the warhungry, and those who seek to purge the Tyranids and the Forces of Chaos. All hail the God-Emperor of Mankind for bestowing upon us the magnificence of Space Marine 2!


Gamer Guides - Nathan Garvin - 77 / 100

Visceral combat, excellent set pieces, and plenty of Warhammer 40,000 fanservice, but is there enough launch content to satisfy less die-hard fans?


Gert Lush Gaming - Jim Smale - 9.4 / 10

Every Warhammer game recently has raised the bar of quality and this has exceeded all those before it, Even if you do not like Warhammer 40k, it is a fun solid shooter.


Glitched Africa - Marco Cocomello - 9 / 10

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 offers a thrilling campaign and an engaging post-game grind mode. However, the limited number of Operations missions and the lack of replay value in the campaign may hinder the game’s long-term appeal. Despite these flaws, the game’s authenticity and exhilarating action make it a must-play for fans of the genre. It is 2024’s much-needed blockbuster


Nexus Hub - Andrew Logue - 8 / 10

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is a polished, respectful and epic sequel with exciting gameplay – but also one that loses some of its predecessor’s simple charm and humour.


Pixel Arts - Sina Farahani - Persian - 8 / 10

if you enjoy shooting and action games, value character customization, appreciate small-scale 12-player online competitions, and miss the 8-10 hour story campaigns of the 7th generation, this game might be worth the $70 price tag—especially if you're a fan of the Warhammer 40K universe. Created by fans for fans, the game successfully delivers on its promise, despite a few minor technical issues. If the atmosphere of the Warhammer 40K world appeals to you, you're in for an exciting experience.


Prima Games - Enzo Zalamea - 9 / 10

Warhammer 40K Space Marine is a brilliant hack-and-slash action-adventure shooter with three defining game modes to lure in all types of players. While there is a game mode for everyone, everything boils down to the gruesome brutality of what a Space Marine brings to the table.


The Outerhaven Productions - Jordan Andow, Keith Mitchell - 4 / 5

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine II was a blast from start to finish. Only held back by a limited accessibility offering and some technical issues.


VideoGamer - Craig Robinson - 8 / 10

Space Marine 2 is a solid successor to Space Marine, fits well into the Warhammer universe, and offers engaging and fun action combat and shooting mechanics. It is slight marred by a limited map pool creating repetitiveness in the game's multiplayer progression-based features.


XboxEra - Jesse Norris - 9.2 / 10

Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine 2 is an amazing, epic ride through a glorious hellscape.  Visceral combat is matched by stunning graphics to create a title that never relents in being as over the top as possible.  It is one of my favorite titles of the year so far, and one I cannot wait to dive back into as post-launch content starts to stream in.


Zoomg - Afshin Piroozi - Persian - 7.5 / 10

Overall, despite some issues, Space Marine 2 is a very valuable game for two groups of players: first, those who love the Warhammer universe and will greatly enjoy immersing themselves in the game’s world; and second, gamers who are interested in Co-Op experiences and can play Space Marine 2 with their friends. In this case, some of the game’s problems, such as AI weaknesses, are less noticeable. The brutal and bloody action, along with the appropriate atmosphere of the game’s world and the Operations mode, are other positive features of the game. If you enjoy exciting action titles, you will probably also greatly enjoy Space Marine 2.

I'm curious about which types of math games are most ideal for children in terms of both fun and learning. As someone who enjoys playing math games on Math Playground, I'm interested in hearing recommendations and experiences from other parents, educators, or game enthusiasts.

Today’s game is Red Dead Online. Me and a friend climbed a mountain we climbed a while ago (I may have actually shared that screenshot before). We figured out we could ride the others horse. So we rode from Ambarino where we were Wagon Surfing and decided to scale the mountain again and take a picture. This was somewhere in the West Elizabeth Region by Strawberry. I later threw us down a cliff and killed us both on my horse (all in good fun).

It seems the general direction the internet is going and I'm all for it

Since I'm a WoW addict, naturally I'm a Blizzard fan, of sorts. But my mind is blown every time I see anything from Call of Duty on the launcher. I've been really out of the loop, and recently saw this.... and I'm shocked. You have to BUY the game for "open beta access", like how does that make any sense? Also, the general look of the game and its marketing now looks like a $5 ripoff FPS game on Steam... What the heck happened?

Changes that should have been there from the start, but at least they listened in the end. Being able to skip the long animations of each fight is a godsend.

A bit sad their next game is on hiatus, but I'm happy for them. I assume they'll be working on Deadlock since it's sort of similar to Risk of Rain 2.

As spotted by Windows Central, though, Jyamma CEO Jacky Greco later went into additional detail on Discord. Following a community manager's statement dismissing speculation the studio had been "paid by Sony", Greco shared his own frustrations relating to the delay. "You can ask Xbox why they haven't answered us for two months," he wrote. "Obviously they don't care about Enotria and they don't care about you... We've Xbox Series X/S version ready, but we can't proceed with submission and release, I spent a lot of money for porting and they decided to ignore us."

A similar statement also appeared on Enotria's X/Twitter feed. After a fan inquired about the "main challenge" holding up release, Jyamma wrote, "Communication with Xbox. The game works fine on Series S and X but we cannot go through the submission process and they can take even two months to reply to us."

Greco later shared a little more on the issue the studio had enountered, explaining it was unable to open Enotria's Xbox store page and submit the game - something Microsoft's support teams reportedly initially took responsibility for, before further communications were ignored. "We really want to release the game on Xbox ASAP," Jyamma added elsewhere, "but with lack of communication on their side it is a hard task indeed."

The suggestion seems to be things might be resolved pretty quickly if Jyamma could get a response from Microsoft, but in the meantime, Enotria: The Last Song will only be available for PlayStation 5 and PC when it launches on 19th September.
