There’s an Aztec city building game called Tlatoani. It’s in early access, but has enough meat on the bone that it’s one of my goto games.

Out of curiosity I checked Steam DB for active player numbers. I have discovered at any given point I am 10% to 25% of the given player base BY MYSELF. I am 1 of 4 people playing this game right now in the world. With the prevalence of the internet I always assume whatever weird bullshit you’re into there’s at least a thousand people talking about it; making memes outsiders could never comprehend. It’s actually novel to fly under the radar for once.

What do you do that doesn’t have a community associated with it?

      I have a more particular niche, where I like comedy-horror and grossout-horror; flicks that can effectively embrace the tropes of B movie horror.

      Drag me to Hell is one that I enjoyed. The protagonist is pretty resilient in spite of the over-the-top effects of the curse.

      Ironically; I really DON’T like depictions of misery. Somehow my favorite form of action follows the vein of Wile E Coyote getting squished by an anvil; everyone laughs and the appeal is more in the shock unexpectedness than the raw emotional pain that horror often reveals in.

        Hello, My favorites are Session 9, The Mothman Prophecies, Paranormal Activity, and White Noise. I’m more into psychological and supernatural horror. Session 9 is a masterpiece if you haven’t seen it. I would highly recommended it.

      Dude, I just want the internet group of people who like horror films to somehow materialize in my life. Like, I want to throw popcorn at bad ones while giggling and clutch the arm of my seat neighbor during the good ones.

      …like, I know they’re out there. Hollywood companies don’t repeatedly make horror films because of hollywood accounting every time.
