it's too spooky for me to play alone even though it's not that spooky u_u
I avoid spooky games most of the time because I am quite a scaredy cat but this one reminded me of half life so not so much! Knowing its aliens and not ghosts (or maybe its the atmosphere) makes it not scary somehow to me. I would have played with others but I kind of don't have friends to play with ^_^;
I generally don't care for the whole survival crafting thing, but Abiotic Factor slaps. You're basically trapped in Half Life 1 Black Mesa and are surviving by scavenging inside the facility. There is a story and progression.
The big 1.0 release update is at the end of this month which is supposed to bring the ending to the main plot so now is a good time to get in.
Yeah my partner is the same way, she only liked Raft because of the story and island exploration. She needs direction to give a shit about the survival mechanics. She kinda liked Grounded, but so far she's enjoying this a lot more.
Thanks for the tip! I might have to check out Raft. But yeah, at this point, I've done all the aimless survival crafting I care to do. I need some kind of plot or objective beyond just engaging with the game's crafting mechanics.
Yeah it rules
I need to get back on it, I made it pretty deep but quit for basically no reason
word on the street is they're finishing the story soon i guess
i swear i've heard of this before and it's from a good dev & publisher, but I can't remember who... either the vampire survivors or balatro people?
looks cool tho
