Yeah it’s been mostly a gridlock for the past 2 years as well so at the very least it’s 2 more years of gridlock or up to 5…

Your first point is why I often recommend playing the third game on the highest difficulty setting actually. It’s so much fun to actually use the ointments and oils and shit.

And then you can do the same with the third game too. It’s really neat

Poland just never learns.

I think you can use Infuse on iOS to chromecast. I’m not sure if that’s behind the subscription though.

But he wants it all American. Not just non-Chinese.

Haha hell yeah. The OST for cassette beasts is an all timer. The devs behind Wandersong also just released a monster catching game called Beastball if you want some more indie pokemon fix. Haven’t tried it yet but I heard great things.

It’s a good game sir.

Wandersong! You play as a Bard who has to save the world through music and singing. Minimal combat and absolutely wonderful storyline that will make you cry tears of joy.

A bit of a wilder rec would be Cassette Beasts, which is basically Pokémon but better and has really nice optional romances. Very combat focused tho.

Check out Windstorm! It’s an upcoming game that is basically what you describe, just set in Mongolia.

Vintage Story is such a vibe and the building puts Minecraft to shame.

My girlfriend and I do the same but with more simplistic story heavy games. We just finished Slay The Princess and it was an amazing experience like this.
