If you are interested in Tropico 6 (out tomorrow) one of Germanys most famous (and probably kindest) YouTube streamers "Gronkh" got a deal with Kalypso: Instead of getting a 20% cut for every sold copy over his affiliate link, the buyers get 20% off instead! On top of the 10% preorderbonus! This is 35€ instead of 50€ or 38€ instead of 55€ for the special edition. :)

This voucher works on the EU shop as well. Use zhe Code "EL-LURCHO" here:
https://www.kalypsomedia.com/eu/games/

And while you are profiting, don't forget to leave him a like on his video, he is a really kind person and just deserves it even if you don't understand German :)

Seriously! Not trying to promote him or anything but that's the least thing one can do.

...Morrowind didn't have the latter games's levelling system and it sorely needed it. It was made worse by waycombat and spells were implemented. This whole failure to hit mechanic was an exercise in pain, especially in the earlygame. When you only seemed to have a 1% chance to actually hit anything and just about everything you encountered travelling was deadly to the new player it wasn't all that much fun.
I remember Oblivion's content-leveling system introduced severe issues... I remember following a path that I HAD to follow if I wanted to get that darn dagger/whatsits at the best possible level, otherwise it would be worthless to me compared to some other items. And, with the leveling and skill system... Oh wow, I remember how dumb that was. "Jump Everywhere for increase in Acrobatics" etc. :)

So, yeah, the whole franchise up to Skyrim did have some serious issues. And, then there's Skyrim's "Daggersmith" thing and other issues. One thing I missed in Skyrim was the ability to create your own spells. That was something carried over from the earliers TES games. In Skyrim, not so much, though you did have some interesting crafting options IIRC.

Nice!

I really tried to get into the Tropico thing, since I love those sorts of building/sim/management things. But, I just couldn't get into the "theme" very well. I understand it, I just didn't like the feeling of actually being a ruthless dictator no matter that the player is always a ruthless dictator in similar games. :) Not a fan of the music, either, and not sure why that was such a turnoff for me.

But, kudos to him for getting a discount for his fans! (I won't "Like" his vid, since I never sign in to Youtube for anything, but I will contribute to having watched it!)

Hell is Other Demons now launched on Steam (in addition to already being available for Switch and Kartridge). If you're into a retro bullet hell stomping arcade fun, definitely check it out.

Oh nice, the Sims 4 :D It's just sad that the fourth part (inkluding all (nescessary) DLCs) delivers even less game content then Sims 2. Thanks for sharing. :D
It was included before in the Origin Game Flatrate.
