Definitely on steam and definitely has bikes. Overall the driving/riding is a good line of realistic and fun.

What did you like about it? I ran out of steam when it felt like more of the same

My table (relatively new players) has a balance of players that understand the concept and application of role play, and one that intuitively gets that if his character would do something reckless (or if the reckless can be directed to push the story forward) the reckless is going to happen.

I find this creates a good balance, but I’m keen to hear how you have all experienced this. Never had the accents or role play jump to this degree however.

Might not be in your library, but mouse only game I’ve been enjoying is beat cop.

80s love letter to cop games, in the style of papers please. Reviews are a little mixed, it is a particular game, and it’s 80s warts and all. On sale currently.

Whoa fire indeed hot

How did you get started?

Mount and Blade Warband.

So many games you start off or become something great. In Skyrim you’re the dragonborn, you become great but you were always going to. The world is huge and immersive, but you’re always going to be important in the world.

In warband, you’re a nobody. You’ll always be a nobody unless you do something. Trade, fight, quest or scheme. The world will continue with or without you. Your favourite faction might get wiped out and you can do something about it or not. There’s no guarantee of victory, and what you decide as a win condition is up to you.

It is the ultimate sandbox, but the original is janky. The solution; mods. An incredibly dedicated modding community elevates this game into my most played game. The lord of the rings mod is both the best way to get into the game and in my opinion the best video game adaptation of a movie (just in front of kotor).

TL:DR: Warband makes it ok to suck and makes you earn your victory. You might not think that’s fun, but trust me it can be.
