Man I thought the well was so dang creepy when I originally played it.

I played so much SoT back around 2019/2020! Was such a blast just hanging out on the seas.

I agree with your comment about the water, it really is beautiful.

I know folks have mentioned disliking the pvp aspect and believe me I get it - I was never particularly good at it especially in close encounters. But I will say some of the most genuinely exciting memories I have are of those times when we had a boatload of loot with some pirates hot on our tail and managed to get away with it.

The crew I played with eventually moved on to other things but I still miss it now and then.

Hype!! The new music is fire. 🔥

Guess that’s me too. I loved Fallout 3 and wasn’t really aware of a lot of hate for it.

The original Portal game does a good job of this. The first several puzzles are essentially tutorials that still manage to feel fun and interesting.

I wasn’t aware they tried to make it a live service game, but that’s also incredibly unsurprising. It explains so much.

I am still working my way through Expedition 33. I’m in Act 2 and I’d estimate about half way into that. I’m still absolutely loving it.

And someone just committed to it only 2 hours ago. That’s really strange.

In many ways the jankiness is part of the charm and why so many of us love it. :)

The game has effectively been in maintenance mode for some time. That being said I'm glad it still exists. I unsubbed a little over a year ago, but the idea that it's still there waiting for me makes me happy.

I actually logged in just this week - there's a free login campaign right now for those who are inactive, so it's a good chance to scope things out.

I do both PC and console gaming, and I’ve personally never gotten the Epic hate. As a store it’s not amazing but it’s fine. I will generally go to Steam first but I’m also not going to boycott a game just because it’s Epic exclusive.

Yeaaaah, I’m with you. What a wild comment to make. I was ready to give them the benefit of the doubt that the whole review bombing drama was just a case of having a bad day but this is something else.
