    This is such a good game. It hits a lot of high points, really great dev team, highly polished, coop, great progression, and different every time. Also has a 93% positive rating on Steam. It is a lot of fun. The new player experience is also very good, you can play Solo with a little robot that helps you, but playing with others is a lot of fun. Some of the places I have gone into just make me stop and look around, then we get the call that a swarm is incoming.

    I have not even scratched the surface of the game, I am still in the first couple of assignments and I have put 8 hours into the game and it feels like a blur. This is one of those games that I stay up way too late playing. Progression goes up to leveling up your dwarves and you "promote" them to keep progressing and unlocking more things. There is also a Diablo style difficulty system that scales up rewards as you increase the difficulty. Ultimately there is Deep Dives that are basically like the end game raids.

    You can also drill.. through anything.. anywhere.

    100% agree. It's a ton of fun with great replay-ability. We had an awesome time with it in 4 man groups during a free to play weekend. I believe it is already on our community watch list. If enough people own it, we can add it to the "recommended" list. We should definitely bring it up at our next meeting.

    The original song was from Yogscast, this is a much better version I think.

    So what do you think Gihz? Should we dedicate some evening of the week to this? A set time/day so that we have guaranteed groups?

    Sure, as long as it is after 9PM eastern during the week I should be good for any night.

    I hesitate to schedule things for Friday night, but we could make an exception. Monday's I want to leave for Mechwarrior... but we could set something for 9:30 pm(which is 1.5 hours after the start of Mechwarrior Monday). @Hakija What about Sundays?

    I'm fine for Sundays, but I don't think Ghiz is.

    I have stuff going on Tues, Wed, Thurs, and Sat. Unless something extra comes up.
