Death Crown (2019)

It's as if a 4x was stripped down to the essentials, just you and the map and three building types, the gameplay is basically "try to overwhelm the enemy" and zerg rushing has been my winning strategy so far. Love the aesthetic though.

Narita Boy (2021)

I first played it close to release, but got bored of the story after a while, rediscovering this one on Steam Deck, the controls and combat has surprising depth !

Yes I believe they have received buffs on blood moon maps

The Finals changed some in-game props into jack o lanterns you can throw at opponents to deal damage, and the maps have a spooky variant with spiderwebs and whatnot.

Phasmophobia is running a Halloween event amidst its console release, but it's mostly just playing the map to make a counter go up, kind of disappointed.

Deep Rock Galactic has the usual lobby reskin, and extra cosmetics, always fun to go back to !

Interesting thing from the jobs descriptions:

Privacy Guides is fiscally hosted by MAGIC Grants, a 501(c)(3) public charity.

MAGIC Grants is a public charity that provides undergraduate scholarships for students interested in cryptocurrencies and privacy, supports public cryptocurrency infrastructure, and supports privacy.

There's only a few that have managed to be praised despite being so far detached from previous iterations, I can only think or Prey, Spec Ops

There's also people who think games can be used to strategize real life warfare, People Make Games published this really good documentary about the military using board games: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYaDXZ2MI-k

I thought it was an interesting look at the perception of Britain in terms of 'branding' but let me know if it does not fit the community !

The website is just a front page for the report, which is actually a canvas project available here : https://www.canva.com/design/DAGTj0mFh2g/ioNSHMo4aGyOs6jwpgtgow/view?utm_content=DAGTj0mFh2g

A report that dives into the good, the bad, and the distinctiveness of Brand Britain. After five changes of brand leader in eight years, not to mention all the events in between, how's the brand looking? Does ‘Britishness’ still have that distinctive edge? And, what’s the impact, if any, that Brand Britain has on British brands?

Indeed but being able to dispose of something by selling it does not automatically means you owned it

The real Yggdrasil was the forests we cut along the way

Oh that's funny, it's the second time I get 'caught' lol

It's a french punctuation rule (I'm francophone), which differs from the usual english one where no space is needed before the exclamation mark. basically if any symbol takes the full line height, we add spaces before and after. It's fun to figure out if someone is francophone or not by the way they type.
