NoClip generally do some really good documentaries about gaming, but this one about Astroneer is really touching. They do a great job of really bringing to the fore the people behind the games.

It's hard to know whether that's the sort of game that will give my OCD a nice warm, glowy satisfied feeling, or one that will make it rip my hair out and give me a neurotic aneurism :lol:

I might get it on a later price drop... or when it goes free on Twitch Prime a month after releasing :x (I'm still bitter).

A little from column A, a little from column B :lol:

Talking of games that trigger a type of OCD response - Merge Dragons. One of them free games that you buy stuff to make things go quicker. Not spent a penny on it so far but the basic goal is merge 3 or more similar things to create new things. Sounds lame but surprisingly fun.

You get a camp to organise and it's full of 2 things waiting for a match but all kept neat and tidy :)

Sweet. I absolutely loved Mini Metro. It's the only game I actually have on my phone. Put a fair few hours into the PC version too.
