Quoting: TcheyTwo Point Hospital was fun for a few hours, then when your hospital was starting to be alright, done. Next mission : do just did the same again with a couple more options, then the same again with a couple more options, then...

From what i see, TPCampus is about the same, with students instead of patients.

Yeah, it's a reskin with little new to offer.
Almost identical mechanics is many cases.

If you really loved Two Point Hospital, you'll probably love this one, too.
But if you only thought Hospital was "ok" and you had "some fun with it", there's probably no reason to get this one.

I'll say that the music is great, though.

QuoteNo text or imagery promoting a different product. This includes no marketing of sequels or other titles in the same franchise

Not sure how I feel about that one, tbh.
At least for sequels/DLC I don't see why that would be so bad.

All things in moderation, of course.

Quoting: Liam DaweHuge difference between mean text and hate speech and I think anyone with a bit of common sense can generally tell the difference.

This sentence alone should tell you where the problem lies.
There is no waterproof definition of "hate speech", even official ones used by some countries are nothing but useless vagueness. And that's in legalese territory, where that's even worse!

And any definition so vague as to what does or does not qualify in the end has to rely entirely on whoever is responsible for enforcing it, entirely on a case-by-case basis.
And as such, places both too much work and too much power in that person's (or collection of persons) hands, which will with almost absolute certainty lead to abuse.
It can work fine within limited-in-size communities such as this, but on a broad scale such as a societal level? Hell no.

Whatever is "common sense" to you, I guarantee will be at least somewhat different from what it is to me or to any other person in this or any community.

Quoting: mindedieThis never gone wrong, specially in (semi-)automated system. It will be abused to hilarious levels.

That's why you should be able to opt out of it if you run a server.
But it should still be there for those who just want the "easiest to deal with" solution.

Ah, yes.
"Hatespeech" aka "someone was mean to me on the internet" aka "please protect me from different opinions voiced strongly" aka "I'm sure this will never be abused" aka "whatever those in power deem to be unacceptable at this point in time, to be changed later, this is totally not a slippery slope, trust us".

Anyway, Minecraft really isn't the platform to insist on being some kind of free speech platform, given the target audience.
In fact, I'm all in favor of moderating chat there.

However, that should be up to the server you're on, not globally managed by Mojang.
Mojang should only provide the tools to do so (including a common database of known offenders), should the admins desire it.

Of course, I don't know if I ever used chat in Minecraft (usually when playing I will be in some voice session). And if I did, certainly not to just randomly swear and insult people
I just do find it funny how "hatespeech" has become this sledgehammer argument "I don't agree with this and feel offended, therefore this is hatespeech" thing and can't help but laugh about it.

The dancing diaper squirrel got me.

However, I don't really see anything there that reminds me of Dark Souls combat - looks way too fast-paced with insta-gibbing enemies.

Reminds me more of Conker's Bad Fur Day.

Quoting: EhvisI despise lock-on systems. This is something for controller play, not for MKB play and I hate that some games feel that it is necessary to force it on MKB players.

Lock-on solves the problem of having to manually move the camera around all the time.
To instead have it look at what you want to look at 95% of the time anyway: the enemy.

There is no connection to controllers, I use it all the time (in games that have it) with kb&m.
I don't understand why some people feel the need to gimp themselves when playing those kinds of games without target lock-on. But it's not really my problem lol

Quoting: lukas333I hope there won't be Warhammer 4 any time soon.

No way.
They now have all the known Warhammer world in one game. That was the end goal from the very beginning.

But not even all the factions yet, e.g. most people wager Chaos Dwarves will be added next. Then there is Ind, etc.
In other words, this game will receive new DLCs for years to come.

Just as a comparison, Warhammer 2 released five years ago and only recently had its last DLC.

Man, I have hundreds of hours in the TW: Warhammer series.
And they botched the release of WH3 so hard it's almost miraculous - such a surefire success ran into the ground without any need whatsoever.

Still, like most fans I am holding out for the release of Immortal Empires.
It's gonna be the definitive thing to play for years, and I have no doubt it's gonna be good. Eventually.

But like @BTRE I'd recommend holding out a little bit more, because the initial release of IE will likely be rough, even after the beta.
That is - very, very unfortunately - the modus operandi of CA.

It's not a bad game, but be aware it has a length of maybe 6-8 hours.
Which is IMO quite low for that asking price.

Definitely more within the walking sim genre than anything else, but if you're into that, probably a good purchase.

Quoting: Perkeleen_VittupääNever tried it but looks pleasant! I wonder if this makes Lutris more irrelevant

I think they do somewhat different things.

Although I'd also say that for most people using Lutris, Bottles could be a easier-to-use replacement.
