RE: XCOM the Series Reboot (An Archdruid contest entry)

in #xcom5 years ago (edited)

Between these two releases... the future is bright for turn-based gaming nerds! Console Kiddies can go back to their hormonal power trips and cry in their beds...

= lol ... i missed xcom 2 , i dont really get to actual gaming anymore and lately it seems like i dont get to much of anything at all anymore but yea, that sure was a revelation

id almost say my first meeting with turnbased was sid meyers civ2 , a demo i had on my Atari ST which i played to the brink of hard-drive failure lol (o wait, did that thing HAVE a hard drive yet ? :D) but thats not true, the very first would have been something called "asmyr adventure" on my c64
so obscure i cant even find a youtube vid on it ...
Ah the days of Harry and Hotline ... dutch, if i remember correctly :)

actually, if , no nono, WHEN i get the first playzone live i would love to do a review :)

e.t.a. 2050 or something, uses a STEEM equivalent derivative for playcoin, 500 years in the making b/c i'm the most unstructured person on the planet . It's ... basically a turn-based rpg but i have a tacmap with hexes for the battles and as i get to higher zones i'd love to include more strategic bits ... its far from anything but its better to reach high, right :p
i'll send you a note in 2049 when i upload the first zone to the server ... ( @tyrnannoght htpps://tyrnannoght.alleycat.be ) actually 'limbo' is already up but thats just the place you go where you die with like a unique item that can only be gotten there and #stuff and things ... i dont wanna hijack with an ad here b/c because there's basically no game yet but i love your lengthy reviews so when the time comes i would be honoured to undergo the scrutiny :p

if i survive yours i'll send a request to zero punctuation too (if its all still there by the time i'm 90 years old ...)

mh im actually in the process of moving all videos to a tyrnannoght-only youtube channel ( https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCE7M3LxMk-Q2MHhCAOTQ-mQ ) and if Faceberg will let me in when i send my passport 20 times a fb page too but im loathe to accidentally create hype over something i dont have yet. Guess i'm not generation ICO ... (sorry for all that, i couldnt resist :p)

Sort:  

Turn based is really the pinnacle of intelligent gaming! It's also something that is really good for time-strapped gamers... you don't have to reach a checkpoint or anything like that! It's a pretty interesting project that you've got going! Pretty involved to be creating your own RPG! I highly recommend XCOM2... you won't regret it... well, that I can't be sure of... I LOVED it!
