It is interesting to me that all reviews I see of space games now feature a mention of/comparison to Stellaris.

So, I decided to be honest with myself an uninstall all games in my steam library that I know I won't play. 120 Gb freed in total  :blush:

Titan Quest had an anniversary edition released. I picked it up for cheap. I gave it a fair try, but quit after over 20 hours (I just made it to Egypt). It just feels very dull and slow and badly paced.

Grim Dawn (by largely the same team) was also on sale on GOG, and I'm enjoying it A LOT more.

I had noticed that you can import saved games in the Witcher.  So I played through the first one again and will start the second one soon.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

It says that all characters are above legal drinking age, which is admittedly perplexing.

Syrian Warfare is coming to Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/485980

QuoteAbout This Game
This war has been going on for a long time, and it's hard to say when it will be over. We got so used to it that news from Syria has become trivial. We've even already forgotten how it all started, and where the roots of the terrible terror lie – the terror that swept across Europe in recent years.

Syria is all over the news, and it's become a subject of many documentaries. We, however, want to show the story through the lens of the game and don't let the word "game" mislead you. This game does not claim to be a history lesson, but it shows the course of the war in all its seriousness through the major milestones, from the first days till the latest important victories over terror.
What kind of a game is it?

-Syrian Warfare is a real time strategy with a high degree of realism. This game is not about a base construction or units production. The player will have to determine their forces characteristics before they go into action. And during the mission, they would be able to select reinforcements in order to support the troopers.

-The troops and machinery crews move from mission to mission and gain experience, which helps them increase their effectiveness.

-Trophies captured by the player on the battlefield can be used throughout the whole campaign.

- Importantly enough, there are no «life bars» for vehicles in the game. Damages are calculated by taking into account the protection module and the power of adverse factors. Inflicted damages affect the functioning of the module.

- In the battlefield, it is impossible to repair the armor, but one can repair the modules by using a limited stock of spare parts. Ammunition and fuel are also limited.

- A system of high-quality physical demolition of buildings and other objects is used in the game (it does not only look spectacular, but it has a serious influence on the tactics during the missions, especially in urban areas).

- The game has a wide set of tactical possibilities: The storming of buildings, usage of smokescreens, infantry lift by helicopters and APC/IFV, air strike calls, capturing of trophy weapons and equipment, usage of heat flares and active defense complexes.
- And of course the story itself. We will try to show the conflict, not from a point of view of a general, located somewhere at the 'top'. No, it will be a story of a man, who lived in the country that descended into hell. A story of struggle, loss and regained hope.

Gee, I wonder who the good guys will be:



EDIT: Actually, here's a quote from the devs on the Steam forums:

QuoteDo some research. Russia wasn't part of the coalition which democratized Iraq and Libya.
But is not the point. I answered for trolling about "Assad or we burn the country". Yes, we support legitimate authority against jihadists and "moderate rebels". Recent examples of Iraq and Libya show the fate of the countries without "dictators" demonized by the west democratic countries.

Not really worth it, get a set of gear for the early game you will end up replacing, and I think I read transporting from 2>3 does almost nothing if I read correctly.
