4x 40k game 4 free. Anyone know if it is worth spending time on?

[Acrux]

It's nearly a civ5 clone, so I guess it depends on how you feel about that.

Actually, it's closer to Beyond Earth, and I don't just mean a space/sci-fi theme.

Its basically a 40K reskin of Sid Meyer's Beyond Earth that's also been on giveaway several times on EGS now.

In the last week I've launched AC Syndicate and Pathfinder: Kingmaker. Both games had non-skippable messages/logos that made if feel like it took an age to get to the game. I'd be lying if I said I didn't get unnecessarily angry. I've actually continued to play AC Syndicate the last few days but loading it up is so frustrating.
I'm not sure if I'm just used to more recent games not doing this, if I've developed ADHD or just become a grumpy old man.

Nothing for Kingmaker as far as I know though.

Ah thank you. Not sure why it bothers me so much now.

Huh, for some reason you have me ignored (why?), but that's exactly what I had posted just before this.

My ignore list is empty. You'll have to ask management what you did.

You can generally delete the logo/intro files in the install directory and the game will just shrug and boot up.
Worst case, download a zero second video file of the same format (easily found for most types) and replace the originals with copies of the blank one named the same.
(I've only had to do the last one once. I forget which game bitched about missing assets.)

Guild Wars 3 confirmed to be in development by NCsoft shareholder report

Q. NC West has been running a deficit for 8 years, and I don’t understand why the person in charge remains the same.

Acting Chairman Park Byeong-moo = NC West’s deficit issue is not something that should be looked at solely based on numbers. Personally, as I have been moving NCSoft for 17 years, I have seen NCWest also undergo various reorganization efforts. Originally, NC had six studios in the United States, and the work was done to organize the six and integrate them into one ArenaNet. Although additional costs were incurred in the process, it ultimately resulted in a competitive ArenaNet. Rather than looking at the deficit as a number, NC contributed to strengthening competitiveness in the United States.

ArenaNet has a meaningful IP called ‘Guild Wars’, and after Guild Wars 2, they are currently working on ‘Guild Wars 3’. Looking at this process, we have considerable competitiveness. Although it is not completely profitable, I believe that it has increased its competitiveness.

Given how Anet's other projects died stillborn and how GW2 has been languishing for the past five years, I'm doubtful this will turn out good.

I tried to return to Lost Ark but then I remembered how it was niggerised by Amazon.

I believe Koreans made an agreement with Amazon and added a whole fucking continent inhabited by niggers.

Thou shalt donate half of thy income to charity, or thou shalt have no income.

I want Rusty to donate half of his income (50%) to charity (me), or else.

How very ESG of them



This is from the Steam description

Please be aware, that for now, as our in-game world of Euro Truck Simulator 2 faces similar difficulties as the real one, we do not have built electric vehicle charging infrastructure in the game. Due to this and more reasons, we have decided to bring this electric vehicle into the game only as an option in predefined deliveries known as Quick Jobs.

I bought eurocuck to escape that shit. Should have known.
