It’s great in VR, i just have an ancient oculus devkit 2 or so, its horrid mess of cables I don’t want to deal with
Too early adopter issues. :P

I’m going to go with Euro truck simulator 2.
The experience of chill driving across europe and listening to podcasts is nice. The game isn’t complicated enough to affect listening experience, but also engaging enough on it’s own right that it stays interesting.
I have probably seen 80% or so of the roads and cities, bit they still feel fresh… Could be that I’m forgetting places faster than I’m getting familiar with them as well.
I do have a steering wheel and pedals, but they’re just too cumbersome to get out and my wheel stand is made for someone at least 20 shorter than I am, so the experience is hampered a bit anyway. Because I’m lazy I’ve just resulted to driving witn mouse and keyboard combo.
Edit: typos. Typing on phone is butts
huh? or did I miss something here?
edit: or are plain-text curlable websites a feature I’m not aware of? Or curl’ers use some striptags feature?
I could see a single short mini-episode where Duke shoots shit up and saves the day, and that’s the depth it goes. A whole series? Kinda seems a bit too thin for that.
Besides, considering the character: if they keep him as is - some people are gonna raise hell. If they don’t - other people gonna raise hell. I don’t see there being a winning move here.
But, eh, whatever. If someone really wants to spend money on making it happen, sure, go ahead.
edit:
“It’s a middle finger to everybody,” Shankar said when describing his vision for Duke Nukem. “When Duke Nukem blew up, a bunch of people sat around trying to turn it into a brand, when it’s just a middle finger. Duke Nukem can’t be made by a corporation, because the moment a corporation makes Duke Nukem, it’s no longer Duke Nukem. I don’t intend on having anyone tell me what to do on this one.”
as the article says. I guess they have a vision, but at the end of the day, a “middle finger to everybody” doesn’t seem like a commercial success. Oh well, remains to be seen what comes out of this.
regarding OP, kinda bummer that the bike bug which lead to nude A-posing when riding a bike was fixed.
I did goof with it when it was still a thing:
While it’s not indie: Cyberpunk 2077?
You can make your character as pretty as you please (though, no “sex appeal” -slider like in Saint’s Row :D). Also, no 3rd person camera, so you’d only see your character in inventory screen. Otherwise there’s bit of boobies to be seen - and massive amounts if you so choose with modding.
Difficultywise it’ll cater to very casual approach, but the game does the “bethesda-thing” where you will end up as destroyer of worlds regardless of difficulty.
edit: btw, you might want to specify your platform? No modding for cyberpunk on consoles as of yet, I just assumed PC here.
I got back to Marvel Heroes (tldr: “mmo” diablo-clone with marvel characters), as the private server emulator resurrected the game.
The game got killed ~8 years ago, and every passing year since made my craving for the game that much worse. And late 2024 some absolute madlads released a server emulator, and it’s seems to work great, though the server I’m currently playing is having occasional lag spikes, which isn’t great. I could self-host the server for just for me and/or some friends, but that’d require effort. :D
Anyhoo, got through the story-campaign with my fav marvel character, started looking at the end game … and suddenly I remembered why I stopped playing the game in the first place. It gets pretty grindy. Oh well, I still have a truck load of characters to play - they all play quite differently, give or take some similar ones (like, the thing, hulk, etc bruisers are fairly samey, gun-tooting-heroes also are somewhat similar, but still all of them have their own twist to it). Each max leveled character gives an account-wide exp boost so leveling gets faster and faster. So… gotta churn them levels, I guess. :)
EDIT: oh right, I also finished Kathy Rain, a pretty neat detective point-and-click adventure. I can’t say I had heard of the game before, but as people were frothing about Kathy Rain 2, and the first one was on steep discount, I decided to give it a go… and oh man, worth.
The art, voice acting and gameplay were great. Puzzles were logical for the most part, but there were 2-3 puzzles which did stump me a bit and had to take a peek on a walkthrough - one wasn’t even difficult, but I was overthinking it way too hard and somehow confused red and blue repeatedly, but I guess few beers do affect detective skills… In any case I got through the game with a LONG single session, but I just couldn’t let it go.
Anyhoo, Kathy Rain was pretty dope, eagerly waiting to pick up the sequel later on.
scifi? point&click? Are you targeting me specifically? Wishlisted & waiting for the demo to drop.
Digging the art style, it’s kinda reminiscent of “Another World” / “Out of this world”.
Just going by the video/screenshots on the steam page, is this going to be on phones as well? The dialog choices ui seems needlessly massive for regular pc use. Also the video says “demo available now”, but I’m just nitpicking :P

samesies. Finished it yesterday, absolute banger of a game. The different word order/sentence structures between the languages did my head in a bit, and the last few glyphs I had somehow entirely missed on earlier areas, and when I did finally find them - the backtracking to solve the remaining translations was a bit of back and forth. But man, what a vibe that game was.
Ye. Ut99 weapons were pretty much all great. Personally I didn’t really like the goo gun, but others made it an absolute beast. The sniper rifle ended up being hilariously good at range and stupidly deadly at close range as headshots seemed to trigger on any hit above belly. The buzzaw throwing thing was nifty for the bouncing shots, but iir the headshots with that required hits to the forehead… Which still cut the heads off from the neck. Felt weird that
I guess the default pistol was a bit weak, but dual pistols was decent upgrade to it.
I’m kinda torn between Unreal Tournament’s (ut99) sniper rifle, flak cannon and the instagib variant of the shock rifle.
I’m not trying to bust your chops or anything.
didn’t take it as such, no worries. We cool? :)
And I bet the whole “'murica” stuff is quiiite a bit more prevalent.
Aaaaanyhoo, feels like these kinda drunklol games are pretty much just youtuber/streamer-bait for cheap giggles - and I do watch quite a bit of gaming content so these things are kinda inescapable. Oh well. Old man yells at cloud. :P
Just because “when finland -> lol alcoholism”, I get that it’s a self-deprecating joke and all that, but… we could have other jokes too, maybe? :P
I don’t mind the games, let peeps have their fun.
edit: what I called “weird”, is probably better put as “…this thing, again”. I guess.
well, ofc I can only speak on my own point of view, as a finn, the fairly prominent “lol drunk” -memery in games feels a bit weird. If that was what you were asking.
So many “drinking-games”: Obenseuer, Finnish Cottage simulator, My Summer Car, Finnish Cabin Mayhem/Mökkimähinä… probably forgetting a few… and now Drunkard Simulator and Last Drop?
Self-deprecating humor and all that, but… this starts to feel a bit weird :|

Imagine paying hundreds for beta-invite, to scalpers, and then get banned because account trading is pretty much always against TOS.
most people and/or critics hate witcher 3? o_O
Finished Kathy Rain 2 few hours ago. Very nice point & click game with reasonable puzzles. The first game and this one went kinda off the rails towards the end, but it seems like “a thing” this series does, I say hoping there’s a 3rd one.
The pixel art is just stupidly gorgeous with modern lighting/reflection effects and voice acting is good accross the board.
If anything negative, there’s quite a bit of back and forth traveling to unlock-stuff-to-do-the-thing-elsewhere, it comes a off as a bit of “trial and error” style of exhausting options to get the crucial hint to progress. But other than that, the game is great.
