I too despise the obsession with making videogames look like they were filmed for some inexplicable reason lol.
Okay I wasn't particularly interested until I read this comment. What a combo lmao
GAMMA has faction questlines. I'm not sure how good of an experience they are because that is very much not why I play GAMMA, but they definitely exist.
Also: if you install GAMMA and are initially utterly disgusted by the depth of field, don't panic you can turn it off lol.
TIL. I didn't realize it started in the browser originally.
Warframe can be super overwhelming, though. There's a billion things to do and it's hard to know where to start. I had issues with that when I was getting back into the game awhile back, and I'd already completed a ton of the content. If you actually want tips on how to manage it: set short term goals and long term goals, and just go for those. Shut out anything that isn't relevant and focus on specifically on whatever you decided was your goals. My long term goal, for example, was to complete all the story quests. My short term goals were basically a checklist of things I needed to do to start the next quest lol.
Plus, the game being almost entirely PVE means that in my experience the community is great. If you have questions or need help just ask, and someone will probably be willing to help. There's an excellent Warframe community over on the dormi.zone instance. It's reasonably active and they're helpful over there. Plus Q&A chat is just in the game.
Fair enough- I find leveling stuff is fine if I either do it passively via either just equipping a weapon I don't intend to use or just specifically focus farming leveling. But Warframe is very firmly not for everyone.
Web Fishing is just outright paid, is it not? The game is $5 on steam.
There's a few examples of F2P games with good monetization. Warframe comes to mind immediately. I've heard Path Of Exile is also a solid example of F2P done right, but don't have personal experience with that one.
I think 'premium' in this case is synonymous with 'not free to play'.
A (rumored) $40 live service battle-royale.. outlook bad for this game.
Uh, okay. I didn't realize the existence of Club Penguin was 'internet drama'. That's the part that confused me lol.
'Retro' in a gaming sense is often used interchangeably with 'Vintage', as far as I can tell.
The subreddit r/Retrogaming even has this gem on their sidebar:
Retro Gaming: Reddit's home of vintage gaming
...what internet drama are you talking about rn?
Honestly, if we're talking modern games I think games that don't utilize multithreading to at least some degree would be a significantly shorter list.
