I’d like to throw Rising World out there. Java Version with the Planks N Beams addon (Tutorial on Youtube). If you like building…That version of the game is a builders dream. But I do agree on Vintage Story. Great indie game!!! Mining is Tough though.

Slow development, java version updates stopped, rising world isnt know for mp play. Just building and creating. The options to build are superior so far for any game in the genre. Just no chiseling.

While the Unity version is behind in progression: There is some activity.

My favorite building game off all time has to be Planet Coaster in sandbox mode. Dunno if I can call it in the same genre, but simply amazing building.

It doesn’t have to be just a coaster.

But its a coaster builder :stuck_out_tongue: J/K Loved the tutorial on the game you showed me before. Looked very detailed and in line to my point with rising world. Just the creative ability to layer items on your build to really give the detail.

I’ve been in the Alpha Test for Pax Dei with a group of about 500+ people on one server building a little something for Asmongold. Been fun so far, the building is pretty damn cool so far.

Planet Coaster not only came out for 64bit Mac, it was on sale :D. No Man’s Sky also came out for 64bit Mac.

I had been sneaking off to play RUST speed servers to blow off anger at the rw and blam came back to a huge vibe-shifting blowout here; now RUST isn’t working for Mac users. :face_with_peeking_eye:

I recently bought Elder Scrolls Online and have been playing that everyday for a week now.

It’s a nice change of pace and the scenery/lore is beautiful.

Looks great. I will look into Elder Scrolls Online as I can always play more games. :slight_smile:

Well I will warn you that your race can have a significant impact on how your class works.
For example, if you play a sorcerer, there are races that get magic bonuses and bonus mana, or weapon/armor skills that match the class better than others.
Trying to find that balance can take a couple of tries.

Can say that ESO is one that I LOVED. Especially one area for leveling. Once you got there, its an endless spawn of Skeletons and hit max level within a few hours and ALWAYS had a party invite. Community was great to work with.

There were a couple of little narrative based games I really enjoyed recently, centred around mental health and childhood, both bought a tear to my eye as well as got a couple of giggles:

I love the game was glad when they added a non PVP option. It allows you to go do some of the quests without players interrupting the story.

Yeah, I’m too rubbish at PvP to really engage in it, so I’m glad there’s a PVE option.

I’ll be playing Pax Dei. They have a 5 day preview going on with some streamers and their viewers on Twitch prior to EA which launches the 18th.

I’m pretty excited personally I spent about 30 hours or more in the alpha.

The link you posted earlier to the video doesn’t work

If you like turn-based RPGs, check this out. This trailer at the Xbox show absolutely blew me away -

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 on X: “Each year, the Paintress awakens to paint her cursed number, causing those of that age to fade away. As the number ticks down, more are erased. This cycle of death must end. Expedition 33 comes to Xbox, PS5, and PC in 2025. Find out more and wishlist: https://t.co/NTUKan2Yjq https://t.co/wT6TZOMJfE” / X

The visuals and music… :heart_eyes:

More info on Steam about it - Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 on Steam (steampowered.com)

@tarranth - ESO was my addiction before Boundless! :grinning: I’ve been tempted to get back in but it is quite a time sink! It is very beautiful, nice game to wander in. I generally don’t do any PvP but I loved the big fights in Cyrodiil.
