GamingLives takes a look at the free-if-already-owned DLC for the surprise runaway hit from 2012, FTL: Faster Than light.
"To sit here and describe all the new weapons would take an entire article in itself and, as with the whole of FTL, finding these things out for yourself and taking the risk in trying them is half the fun. The other half of the fun to be had is in experiencing the rest of the content; this latest update provides more stories, more dialogue, more possibilities. In a game that was already impressive enough for its replay value, having even more content that expands on what you can get up to only adds more of what already makes FTL great."
Love strategy but your processor and graphics card doesn't love you? The best strategy games for low-end PCs have you covered.
From Xfire: "PC exclusives might not get as much of the limelight as their console counterparts, but that doesn't mean they're not worthy of your attention. PC exclusive games are often just as good if not better than console exclusives. Some even go on to win multiple gaming awards despite being made by relatively unknown studios."
From Xfire: "Gaming desktops are more powerful than they've ever been. Unfortunately, not everyone can afford to get themselves the latest and most powerful graphics card right now. Not especially given the current situation, with cryptocurrency miners driving up the prices of even entry-level gaming graphics cards like the GTX 1050 ti.
With that said, not every game out there demands a powerful PC. In fact, in this day and age, some of the best games on PC can be played even if your desktop doesn't have a graphics card."
It's not just miners driving up prices, but the fact that there's a global semiconductor shortage. It's hitting everything hard, from GPUs, to cars, to mobile SoCs.
But I've noted a similar thing to the author, in that many of the games I play don't even require the hardware I've got. Still nice to have, still want to get a RTX 30XX series card for the graphics heavy games I do end up playing, but some of the best games I've played don't require beefy hardware to run or enjoy.
Great, extensive review. Great indie game, chief among the hullabaloo around the indie scene.
