  • Just started reading through Brandon Sanderson’s Mistborn trilogy and it feels tailor-made for a game adaptation where the player is a Mistborn for hire before the events of the first book.

    Spoilers from the first book

    The magic system is well-defined and the noble factions are all there with their own headquarters. Traversal would be the perfect hybrid of Assassin’s Creed and Spiderman, running over rooftops and swinging from metal fixtures throughout Luthadel with iron and steel.

    I imagine combat feeling like Breath of the Wild where the player can burn tin to slow down time, allowing the player to perform coin shots, dodge attacks, etc. Pewter increases damage and iron pulls weapons, coins, or enemies themselves if wearing armour. Zinc could allow skaa to be rioted, attacking nearby enemies on the player’s behalf whilst brass could be used for stealth.

    Areas the player could access at any given time could be limited via soothing stations and metal availability. The mist itself would even allow the developers to keep draw distance down and prevent players from travelling too far outside the city grounds until the story permits.:::





  • For old school RTS, Total Annihilation or if you fancy something a bit different then The Settlers II (Pioneers of Pagonia is a more modern remake). I grew tired of RTS and moved on to turn-based but Stellaris is one that recently drew me back in.

    For tactics I’d say Advanced Wars, Fire Emblem and Disgagea are decent shouts. Into The Breach is probably my favourite indie of the genre, a lot of strategy packed into a small game.

    If you like turn-based then Civ has always been top of my list.

    You’ll need to sign up for a new account on the other instance. I’d recommend you persevere with getting a lemmy.world one and use that as your main one. Keep the one you’ve got in case of an lemmy.world outage.

    Content is generally shared amongst the main instances so you’ll generally be able to see the same stuff wherever you create an account. Most of the Lemmy apps have multi-account functionality so you can add both.
