::: spoiler Transcript A tumblr post by @normal-horoscopes.

Elf video games: 300 hour jrpgs with legions of characters and several novels worth of text. Labrynthine upgrade trees and customization options. The most insufferably unintuitive Ul possible. A single turn based battle can take hours. Every character has an ennui stat.

Dwarf video games: Basebuilding strategy FPSs that has a whole wiki page on the flexile vs tensile strengths of different building materials. Dwarven rhythm games have minigames where you have to manage supply lines. Mortals cannot comprehend dwarven grand strategy games.

Halfling video games: What appears on the surface to be a viscerally calming farming sim is actually an extraordinarily complex social combat game about cutthroat HOA politics.

Goblin video games: Wildly unbalanced collectathon gatchas where half the fun is finding new hilariously broken strategies. Zany uberviolent team shooters about bugs. MOBAs so bad it’s almost art.

Orc video games: Addictive in-browser flash games with names like “Beast Crush 4” and “Borag Meat Game.” The art is always kinda bad but in a charming way. The music always slaps.

#humans only have one game in this world and its counterstrike source :::

Also incredibly related is this tumblr post which I might go post here separately at some point. Or not.

Well I’m certainly a halfling, but I must have been raised by elves because those are the video games I want. Let me use the power of friendship to split the hero into superpowered versions of his id, ego, and superego to fight the five-phase final boss representing the stages of grief, while power metal makes sweet love to latin chanting in the background.

Gnomes: pixel-based platformers with mind-bending crafting mechanics, horrifying enemies drawn in an adorable style, and the most elusive and deep lore ever written. Humans have occasionally gone insane or ruined their lives trying to understand it. Beating the game requires an obscure combination of luck and genius.

So, Noita

I’d like a mix of elf and dwarf with a splash of goblin, please.

I want the systems management with a huge complicated story, but also lots of collectibles around the world for no fucking reason other than to give my ADHD something to do when “build more shit and try to find the end of that fucking wire” are not engaging.

So far I’ve got oxygen not included and rimworld, I tried dwarf fortress but it’s really not my bag and I’m not sure why. I haven’t tried factorio or satisfactory because they look a bit too complicated to fully engage me (tho I’ve been watching game it out and honestly, as a result I’m trying to embrace the chaos). I’m sure I’d like them if I gave them a try, maybe. Then again I mod the shit out of my games to add more complexity to them so…

But is there a good mix of elf and dwarf games?
