  • Yeah I prefer 6 over 5 any day, but there are a few small things that 5 does do better imo. I do prefer the more serious art style of 5, and I noticed that there is a lot less actual dialogue in a civs respective language compared to 5. While I do like automatic road creation, I do also miss being able to build it manually to have more control over where units can go. Finally, I think the happiness system in Civ 6 is a bit too easy, as it can be mostly ignored and very easily fixed compared to 5. Keeping your citizens happy was much more of a challenge there.




  • Ranking is tough but I’ll give it a go. The ranking is based on the impact and enjoyment I got out of them regardless of playtime.

    1. What Remains of Edith Finch & Kentucky Route Zero (shared 1st place)

    2. Life is Strange

    3. Stray

    4. GRIS

    5. Cyberpunk 2077

    6. SOMA

    7. Heaven’s Vault

    8. The Town of Light

    9. FAR: Lone Sails

    10. Portal 2

    That last one is a bit of an outlier but I have laughed so much while playing it, it deserves a place at the table.








  • Sadly, it’s not just the US. A whole generation of students here in The Netherlands were made to take loans. They did change it back, but it was in place for 7/8 years. And, as a cherry on top, there was no interest initially. Then a small (~0.5%) interest was added, and now a few days ago they announced that the interest would be five-folded. It sounds too American to be happening here, but sadly it is the truth.
