Stellaris has been great so far, only made it to endgame once and the stupid unbidden came and destroyed everything :) great time

Just finished it. What a trip :)

And it seems like they're set up for a possible sequel too

That's crazy! I wonder what it must be like trying to figure out where you are like that.

This is absurd and I love it.

Completely agree with this. I like the concept of being able to try out indie games freely and experimenting, but without knowing what I'm getting into there's no way I'm paying for it. It's going to have to be a wide enough selection that it's not worth getting the games themselves DRM free forever from GOG or Humble Bundle. For example for only a little more yearly ($120 (without the discount code) vs $132) you can get ~90 games to keep forever from Humble monthly. The selection would have to include significantly more than that for me to consider renting the games.

I'd consider portal as one of the best games and that's more recent

I have a few non-hubski friends I've played diplomacy with before. I'll try asking around.

Speaking of dealmaking - is that done through private hubski messages, in the game client, or somewhere else?
