  • I just looked and I also got 2,2gb. Which seems like a lot to me, but I’m also using primarily liftoff - and I’m a heavy user (gotta fuel my addiction since reddit became a no no)

    Would be interested in how this compares to other lemmy apps/reddit, as data usage is not no concern for me




  • To add to this:

    The only thing you’re getting by pre-ordering is a car. If you’re paying the game normally, you’ll end up with a plethora of cars and bikes already, so you’re not really missing out on anything special. (which, tbh, is decent on CDPR for not banking on huge FOMO)

    You can always wait for the release and look up reviews and (more importantly) first hand player experiences on here/reddit/youtube/wherever you consume gaming media, to avoid spending money on a potentially subpar product.

    Just a disclaimer: I’m also very much hyped for the DLC, and plan on getting it day one (if all goes well), but I’ll wait for reviews and impressions first. :)


  • Edit: added some more games that I immediately thought of after posting the comment. :D

    I would definitely recommend:

    • The Big Con if you’re into short puzzle/adventure type games. It’s completable in about 5-6 hours and (at least to me) incredibly funny.

    • Unpacking if you’re interested in unpacking a lot of moving boxes and having a chill gaming experience

    • Powerwashing simulator: for maximum satisfying gameplay

    • Cassette Beasts for Pokémon-like goodness

    • Monster Sanctuary also for Pokemon-like goodness, with a bit more in depth RPG elements

    • Monster Train: since you already played Slay the Spire (great game, you may want to try another take on the genre. Monster train is all in all pretty similar, but with enough different mechanics, that it stays fresh. All in all I’d say it’s a bit more complicated than StS, but if you’re interested, it’s got enough content for way too many hours.

    • Darkest Dungeon: Hardcore RPG with a unique stress mechanics (both in game, and on you personally). Your characters can die permanently, many battles seem unfair and you always play to survive. But it’s so satisfying beating a dungeon, a tough boss or impending insanity. This game made me age up 5 years in 2 quests, would recommend.

    • Ghost Song: Kinda old metroid like, but also a bit of dark souls in it (because why not). All in all very interesting and doesn’t take too long to complete - won’t hold your hand, tough.

    • Pentiment: Narrative, choice based mystery in medieval Bavaria, great atmosphere and full of little charming details, if you’re interested in the setting. Greatly reccomend playing, took me about 12 hours, I think.

    • Turnip Boy commits tax evasion: because it’s funny and an easy experience.

    • Tinykin: Like the Pikmin games, but smaller, less anxiety-inducing, and more platformer-puzzle oriented.

    • Scorn: Do you like body-horror and grotesque looking stuff? This game got you covered. Don’t be misled by pictures of the playable characters holding guns: it’s a puzzle and walking simulator game first, “shooter” second/last. Great visual experience, tough I had no clue what I was doing the first time around.

    2 more known games, but I still want to recommend them, in case you didn’t check them out already:

    • Psychonauts 2: Obv. A sequel, but you don’t need to pay the first one, if you don’t want to (it’s on the Gamepass, just a bit older). It’s an action platformed with whacky graphics and powers

    • Hifi Rush: Action-Rythm-Game that got everything. Good soundtrack, good fighting, good characters and humor, it’s easy to pick up (you don’t even need to hit on the beat to complete the game). And probably more I’m forgetting right now :)

    Hope this list can lead you to some good gaming experiences!









  • Hey!

    I want to thank every contributor and developer for working on this app and to bring so many updates in such a short amount of time. :)

    Got a quick question though: if I have Jerboa installed via the playstore, is it possible to update it with the apk? Or would I need to deinstall the app and install it fresh?




  • It does sound promising, but I’d like to see more gameplay elements of it. Currently I only know that there are multiple weapons (which in itself don’t seem to have much of a variety), so I ask myself: is there more to it? Skills, classes, different roles players can take?

    In short: I’m intrigued, but I want to see more :)







  • Well, in that case… Maybe you’d like:

    • Outward (literally getting thrown into a survival-exploration-RPGs), didn’t play much, but liked what I saw. Seems to be very deep in it’s systems.

    • Elex (plus Sequel, I didn’t play): Techno-Fantasy-mix by the guys who made Gothic 1-3 (also good contenders, but a bit old), so expect some good eurojank. This one’s a bit more story heavy, though.

    If I can think of more, I’m try to post here again 👍
